Let $H$ be a fixed graph and $\mathcal{G}$ a subcritical graph class. In this paper we show that the number of occurrences of $H$ (as a subgraph) in a uniformly at random graph of size $n$ in $\mathcal{G}$ follows a normal limiting…

For $n,m\in \mathbb{N}$, let $H_{n,m}$ be the dual of the Radford algebra of dimension $n^{2}m$. We present new finite-dimensional Nichols algebras arising from the study of simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules over $H_{n,m}$. Along the way, we…

We study the equidistribution of mesh patterns of length 2. We show that the number of equidistribution equivalence classes lies between 105 and 108, and conjecture that it is exactly 105. As a consequence, we obtain an upper bound of 49…

Principal matrices of a numerical semigroup of embedding dimension n are special types of $n \times n$ matrices over integers of rank $\leq n - 1$. We show that such matrices and even the pseudo principal matrices of size n must have rank…

We show that every quasitrivial n-ary semigroup is reducible to a binary semigroup, and we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for such a reduction to be unique. These results are then refined in the case of symmetric n-ary…

Let (G, *) be a semigroup, D subset of G, and n >= 2 be an integer. We say that (D, *) is an n-closed subset of G if a_1* ... *a_n in D for every a_1, ..., a_n in D. Hence every closed set is a 2-closed set. The concept of n-closed sets…

A recent strategy to circumvent the exploding and vanishing gradient problem in RNNs, and to allow the stable propagation of signals over long time scales, is to constrain recurrent connectivity matrices to be orthogonal or unitary. This…

We give a survey of several models of irreducible complementary series representations and their limits, special representations, for the groups SU(n,1) and SO(n,1), including new ones. These groups, whose geometrical meaning is well known,…

In this paper, we consider the family of pattern-replacement equivalence relations referred to as the "indices and values adjacent" case. Each such equivalence is determined by a partition $P$ of a subset of $S_c$ for some $c$. In 2010,…

Complex Hadamard matrices, consisting of unimodular entries with arbitrary phases, play an important role in the theory of quantum information. We review basic properties of complex Hadamard matrices and present a catalogue of inequivalent…

We study $n$-dimensional matrices with $\{0,1\}$-entries ($n$-cubes) such that all their $2$-dimensional slices are incidence matrices of symmetric designs. A known construction of these objects obtained from difference sets is generalized…

We construct six unitary trace invariants for 2 by 2 quaternionic matrices which separate the unitary similarity classes of such matrices, and show that this set is minimal. We prove two quaternionic versions of a well known…

Let $A \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n}$ be invertible, $x \in \mathbb{R}^n$ unknown and $b =Ax $ given. We are interested in approximate solutions: vectors $y \in \mathbb{R}^n$ such that $\|Ay - b\|$ is small. We prove that for all $0<…

This paper introduces a class of objects called decision rules that map infinite sequences of alternatives to a decision space. These objects can be used to model situations where a decision maker encounters alternatives in a sequence such…

An Hadamard matrix is a square matrix $H\in M_N(\pm1)$ whose rows and pairwise orthogonal. More generally, we can talk about the complex Hadamard matrices, which are the square matrices $H\in M_N(\mathbb C)$ whose entries are on the unit…

We present two families of Wilf-equivalences for consecutive and quasi-consecutive vincular patterns. These give new proofs of the classification of consecutive patterns of length $4$ and $5$. We then prove additional equivalences to…

The absolute upper bound on the number of equiangular lines that can be found in $\mathbf{R}^d$ is $d(d+1)/2$. Examples of sets of lines that saturate this bound are only known to exist in dimensions $d=2,3,7$ or $23$. By considering the…

Over forty years ago, Goethals and Seidel showed that if the adjacency algebra of a strongly regular graph $X$ contains a Hadamard matrix then $X$ is either of Latin square type or of negative Latin square type. We extend their result to…

In this paper, the construction of finite-length binary sequences whose nonlinear complexity is not less than half of the length is investigated. By characterizing the structure of the sequences, an algorithm is proposed to generate all…

We develop a theory of real numbers as rational Cauchy sequences, in which any two of them, $(a_n)$ and $(b_n)$, are equal iff $\lim\,(a_n-b_n)=0$. We need such reals in the Countable Mathematical Analysis ([4]) which allows to use only…
