The ground states of the Bernasconi model are binary +1/-1 sequences of length N with low autocorrelations. We introduce the notion of perfect sequences, binary sequences with one-valued off-peak correlations of minimum amount. If they…
Given a set of integers with no three in arithmetic progression, we construct a Stanley sequence by adding integers greedily so that no arithmetic progression is formed. This paper offers two main contributions to the theory of Stanley…
A canonical Huffman sequence is characterized by a zero inner-product between itself and each of its shifted copies, except at their largest relative shifts: their aperiodic auto-correlation then becomes delta-like, a single central peak…
In this paper we study exactly marginal deformations of field theories living on D3-branes at low energies. These theories include N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and theories obtained from it via the orbifolding procedure. We restrict…
The binomial convolution of two sequences $\{a_n\}$ and $\{b_n\}$ is the sequence whose $n$th term is $\sum_{k=0}^{n} \binom{n}{k} a_k b_{n-k}$. If $\{a_n\}$ and $\{b_n\}$ have rational generating functions then so does their binomial…
It is shown that the previously known $N=3$ and $N=4$ superconformal algebras can be contracted consistently by singular scaling of some of the generators. For the later case, by a contraction which depends on the central term, we obtain a…
Conformal classical Yang-Baxter equation and $S$-equation naturally appear in the study of Lie conformal bialgebras and left-symmetric conformal bialgebras. In this paper, they are interpreted in terms of a kind of operators, namely,…
The basic one in this work is the axiomatic set theory $NBG$ (von Neumann-Bernays-G{\"o}del), which is a first-order theory with its own axioms, including in particular the axiom of choice ${\bf AC}$ and the axiom of regularity ${\bf RA}$.…
Let $d$ be a positive integer. The Yangian $Y_d=Y(\mathfrak{gl}(d,\mathbb C))$ of the general linear Lie algebra $\mathfrak{gl}(d,\mathbb C)$ has countably many generators and quadratic-linear defining relations, which can be packed into a…
A weakly consecutive sequence (WCS) is a permutation $\sigma$ of $\{1, \ldots, k\}$ such that if an integer $d$ divides $\sigma(i)$, then $d$ also divides $\sigma(i \pm d)$ insofar as these are defined. The structure of weakly consecutive…
We prove that for $1<c<4/3$ the subsequence of the Thue--Morse sequence $\mathbf t$ indexed by $\lfloor n^c\rfloor$ defines a normal sequence, that is, each finite sequence $(\varepsilon_0,\ldots,\varepsilon_{T-1})\in \{0,1\}^T$ occurs as a…
Inversion sequences of length $n$, $\mathbf{I}_n$, are integer sequences $(e_1, \ldots, e_n)$ with $0 \leq e_i < n$ for each $i$. The study of patterns in inversion sequences was initiated recently by Mansour-Shattuck and…
Low correlation (finite length) sequences are used in communications and remote sensing. One seeks codebooks of sequences in which each sequence has low aperiodic autocorrelation at all nonzero shifts, and each pair of distinct sequences…
We study supersymmetric sectors at half-BPS boundaries and interfaces in the 4d $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills with the gauge group $G$, which are described by associative algebras equipped with twisted traces. Such data are in one-to-one…
Let us call a sequence of numbers heapable if they can be sequentially inserted to form a binary tree with the heap property, where each insertion subsequent to the first occurs at a leaf of the tree, i.e. below a previously placed number.…
In this note we study half-BPS operators in N=4 super Yang-Mills for gauge group SU(N) at finite N. In particular we elaborate on the results of hep-th/0410236, providing an exact formula for the null basis operators algorithmically…
It is proved that a code $L(q)$ which is monomially equivalent to the Pless symmetry code $C(q)$ of length $2q+2$ contains the (0,1)-incidence matrix of a Hadamard 3-$(2q+2,q+1,(q-1)/2)$ design $D(q)$ associated with a Paley-Hadamard matrix…
An input pair $(A,B)$ is triangular input normal if and only if $A$ is triangular and $AA^* + BB^* = I_n$, where $I_n$ is theidentity matrix. Input normal pairs generate an orthonormal basis for the impulse response. Every input pair may be…
We study the classes of $(u,m,{\bf e},s)$-nets and $(u,{\bf e},s)$-sequences, which are generalizations of $(u,m,s)$-nets and $(u,s)$-sequences, respectively. We show equivalence results that link the existence of $(u,m,{\bf e},s)$-nets and…
We construct the classical configurations of BPS states with 1/4 unbroken supersymmetries in four-dimensional N=4 SU(n+1) supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, and discuss that these configurations correspond to string networks connecting (n+1)…
