Translationally invariant symmetric polynomials as coordinates for $N$-body problems with identical particles are proposed. It is shown that in those coordinates the Calogero and Sutherland $N$-body Hamiltonians, after appropriate gauge…
Let $\mathcal{A}=\left(a_i\right)_{i=1}^\infty$ be a weakly increasing sequence of positive integers and let $k$ be a fixed positive integer. For an arbitrary integer $n$, the restricted partition $p_\mathcal{A}(n,k)$ enumerates all the…
We study product sets of finite arithmetic progressions of polynomials over a finite field. We prove a lower bound for the size of the product set, uniform in a wide range of parameters. We apply our results to resolve the function field…
This work studies skew polycyclic codes over finite chain rings defined by central trinomials. For this class of codes, we investigate Hamming equivalence in the non-commutative (skew) setting. We introduce an equivalence relation on the…
For two sets $A$ and $M$ of positive integers and for a positive integer $n$, let $p(n,A,M)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ with parts in $A$ and multiplicities in $M$, that is, the number of representations of $n$ in the form…
Let $\mathbb{D}^n$ be the polydisk in $\mathbb{C}^n$ and the symbols $\phi,\psi\in C(\bar{\mathbb{D}^n})$ such that $\phi$ and $\psi$ are pluriharmonic on any $(n-1)$-dimensional polydisk in the boundary of $\mathbb{D}^{n}.$ Then…
This paper proves a generalization of a conjecture of Guoniu Han, inspired originally by an identity of Nekrasov and Okounkov. The main result states that certain sums over partitions p of n, involving symmetric functions of the squares of…
Let $(\mathcal{P},\leqslant)$ be a finite poset. Define the numbers $a_1,a_2,\ldots$ (respectively, $c_1,c_2,\ldots$) so that $a_1+\ldots+a_k$ (respectively, $c_1+\ldots+c_k$) is the maximal number of elements of $\mathcal{P}$ which may be…
We determine the multiplicities of irreducible summands in the symmetric and the exterior squares of hook representations of symmetric groups over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero.
In a recent paper, Bruns and von Thaden established a bound for the length of vectors involved in a unimodular triangulation of simplicial cones. The bound is exponential in the square of the logarithm of the multiplicity, and improves…
We establish a version of the Pommerenke-Levin-Yoccoz inequality for the modulus of a polynomial-like restriction of a global polynomial and give two applications. First it is shown that if the modulus of a polynomial-like restriction of an…
Given a hyper loop algebra over a non-algebraically closed field, we address multiplicity problems in the underlying abelian tensor category of finite-dimensional representations. Namely, we give formulas for the l-characters of the simple…
Given a pair of distinct unitary cuspidal automorphic representations for GL(n) over a number field, let S denote the set of finite places at which the automorphic representations are unramified and their associated Hecke eigenvalues…
We consider the {\em Shaped Partition Problem} of partitioning $n$ given vectors in real $k$-space into $p$ parts so as to maximize an arbitrary objective function which is convex on the sum of vectors in each part, subject to arbitrary…
We determine precisely the number of irreducible summands of an irreducible cross characteristic representation of $GL_{n}(q)$ on restriction to $SL_{n}(q)$. Combined with a recent result of C. Bonnafe, this yields a canonical labeling for…
We prove bounds on intersections of algebraic varieties in $\mathbb{C}^4$ with Cartesian products of finite sets from $\mathbb{C}^2$, and we point out connections with several classic theorems from combinatorial geometry. Consider an…
In the intersection of the theories of nonsymmetric Jack polynomials in $N$ variables and representations of the symmetric groups $\mathcal{S}_{N}$ one finds the singular polynomials. For certain values of the parameter $\kappa$ there are…
We show that integral monodromy groups of Kloosterman $\ell$-adic sheaves of rank $n\ge 2$ on $\mathbb{G}_m/\mathbb{F}_q$ are as large as possible when the characteristic $\ell$ is large enough, depending only on the rank. This variant of…
The polynomial ring $B$ in infinitely many indeterminates $(x_1,x_2,\ldots)$, with rational coefficients, has a vector space basis of Schur polynomials, parametrized by partitions. The goal of this note is to provide an explanation of the…
We give a classification of irreducible metabelian representations from a knot group into SL(n,C) and GL(n,C). If the homology of the n-fold branched cover of the knot is finite, we show that every irreducible metabelian SL(n,C)…
