In this article we extend the theory of the binary codes (the strict code $\mathcal{K}$ and the extended code $\mathcal{K}'$), associated to a projective nodal surface, to a coding theory for normal surfaces, with special consideration of…

We generalize a construction of Dunkl, obtaining a wide class intertwining functions on the symmetric group and a related family of multidimensional Hahn polynomials. Following a suggestion of Vilenkin and Klymik, we develop a tree-method…

A rectangulation is a tiling of a rectangle by a finite number of rectangles. The rectangulation is called generic if no four of its rectangles share a single corner. We initiate the enumeration of generic rectangulations up to…

We prove that the monoid of generic extensions of finite dimensional nilpotent $k[T]$-modules is isomorphic to the monoid of partitions (with addition of partitions). Moreover we give a combinatorial algorithm that calculates constant terms…

The Motzkin numbers $M_n=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom n{2k}\binom{2k}k/(k+1)$ $(n=0,1,2,\ldots)$ and the central trinomial coefficients $T_n$ ($n=0,1,2,\ldots)$ given by the constant term of $(1+x+x^{-1})^n$, have many combinatorial interpretations.…

Kupavskii, Volostnov, and Yarovikov have recently shown that any set of $n$ points in general position in the plane has at least as many (partial) triangulations as the convex $n$-gon. We generalize this in two directions: we show that…

We present a generalization, which we call (k,m)-rank, of Dyson's notion of rank to integer partitions with k successive Durfee rectangles and give two combinatorial symmetries associated with this new definition. We prove these symmetries…

We present an approach to generalized Riordan arrays which is based on operations in one large group of lower triangular matrices. This allows for direct proofs of many properties of weighted Sheffer sequences, and shows that all the groups…

Introduced by Kawanaka in order to find the unipotent representations of finite groups of Lie type, generalized Gelfand--Graev characters have remained somewhat mysterious. Even in the case of the finite general linear groups, the…

We study solutions of exponential polynomials over the complex field. Assuming Schanuel's conjecture we prove that certain polynomials have generic solutions in the complex field.

We consider the inversion enumerator I_n(q), which counts labeled trees or, equivalently, parking functions. This polynomial has a natural extension to generalized parking functions. Substituting q = -1 into this generalized polynomial…

Dumont and Foata introduced in 1976 a three-variable symmetric refinement of Genocchi numbers, which satisfies a simple recurrence relation. A six-variable generalization with many similar properties was later considered by Dumont. They…

Schubert polynomials are a basis for the polynomial ring that represent Schubert classes for the flag manifold. In this paper, we introduce and develop several new combinatorial models for Schubert polynomials that relate them to other…

Analytic combinatorics studies the asymptotic behaviour of sequences through the analytic properties of their generating functions. This article provides effective algorithms required for the study of analytic combinatorics in several…

We show that for fixed $d>3$ and $n$ growing to infinity there are at least $(n!)^{d-2 \pm o(1)}$ different labeled combinatorial types of $d$-polytopes with $n$ vertices. This is about the square of the previous best lower bounds. As an…

For a polynomial P, we consider the sequence of iterated integrals of ln P(x). This sequence is expressed in terms of the zeros of P(x). In the special case of ln(1 + x^2), arithmetic properties of certain coefficients arising are…

We study the combinatorics of solitons in $D<2$ (or $c<1$) string theory. The weights in the summation over multi-solitons are shown to be automatically determined if we further require that the partition function with soliton background be…

A common theme of enumerative combinatorics is formed by counting functions that are polynomials evaluated at positive integers. In this expository paper, we focus on four families of such counting functions connected to hyperplane…

In this paper, a way of generalizing the tensor renormalization group(TRG) is proposed. Mathematically, the connection between patterns of tensor renormalization group and the concept of truncation sequence in polytope geometry is…

We study the Poincar\'e series of the mixed and pure trace rings of generic matrices. These series are known to be rational functions. We obtain an explicit formula in lowest terms in the case of $2\times2$ matrices; a denominator, which we…
