From the matrix point of view, we use the recursion to discuss four combinatorial numbers in terms of the integer lattice paths, this is different from Andr\'a's method (Andra). We give four tables and matrices, and their relations, and…
Let $R(n,k)$ denote the number of permutations of ${1,2,...,n}$ with $k$ alternating runs. In this note we present an explicit formula for the numbers $R(n,k)$.
Given a Dirichlet eigenfunction of a 2D quantum billiard, the boundary domain count is the number of intersections of the nodal lines with the boundary. We study the integer sequence defined by these numbers, sorted according to the…
The present paper is devoted to the study of dimonoids, algebraic structures with two associative binary operations that satisfy a prescribed system of axioms. We investigate the properties of dual dimonoids. In the class of noncommutative…
Planes are familiar mathematical objects which lie at the subtle boundary between continuous geometry and discrete combinatorics. A plane is geometrical, certainly, but the ways that two planes can interact break cleanly into discrete sets:…
The multivariate arithmetic Tutte polynomial of arithmetic matroids is a generalization of the multivariate Tutte polynomial of matroids. In this note, we give the convolution formulas for the multivariate arithmetic Tutte polynomial of the…
In an array of random variables, each row can be regarded as a single, sequence-valued random variable. In this way, the array is seen as a sequence of sequences. Such an array is said to be row exchangeable if each row is an exchangeable…
Considering commutator monomials of the non-commutative associative variables $X_1,\ldots,X_n$; we determine the maximal possible number of alternating associative monomials in their noncommutative polynomial expansions. This is achieved by…
We consider the degrees of the elements of a homogeneous system of parameters for the ring of invariants of a binary form, give a divisibility condition, and a complete classification for forms of degree at most 8.
Statistics of orbital parameters of binary stars as well as statistics of their physical characteristics bear traces of star formation history. However, statistical investigations of binaries are complicated by lacking or incomplete…
We define an easily verifiable notion of an atomic formula having uniformly bounded arrays in a structure $M$. We prove that if $T$ is a complete $L$-theory, then $T$ is mutually algebraic if and only if there is some model $M$ of $T$ for…
This puzzle, often called the "Reverse the Triangle Puzzle," appears regularly in puzzle books. Four rows consisting of 1 coin in row 1, 2 coins in row 2, 3 coins in row 3, and 4 coins in row 4 form the shape of a triangle. What is the…
Can you decide if there is a coincidence in the numbers counting two different combinatorial objects? For example, can you decide if two regions in $\mathbb{R}^3$ have the same number of domino tilings? There are two versions of the…
The Fourier transform is naturally defined for integrable functrions. Otherwise, it should be stipulated in which sense the Fourier transform is understood. We consider some class of radial and, generally saying, nonintegrable functions.…
We consider tilings of a rectangle which is n units wide and m units long by non-overlapping 1 X 1 squares and s X s squares. Bivariate generating functions are computed with the Transfer Matrix Method for moderately large but fixed widths…
A formula is given for the propagation of errors during matrix inversion. An explicit calculation for a 2 by 2 matrix using both the formula and a Monte Carlo calculation are compared. A prescription is given to determine when a matrix with…
Counting homomorphisms between cyclic groups is a common exercise in a first course in abstract algebra. A similar problem, accessible at the same level, is to count the number of group homomorphisms from a dihedral group of order $2m$ into…
In a series of papers we investigated the following question: given a family $\calF$ of binary forms having nonzero discriminant and integer coefficients, for each $d\geqslant 3$, we estimate the number of integers $m$ with $|m|\leqslant N$…
The number of domino tilings of a region with reflective symmetry across a line is combinatorially shown to depend on the number of domino tilings of particular subregions, modulo 4. This expands upon previous congruency results for domino…
Every binary De~Bruijn sequence of order n satisfies a recursion 0=x_n+x_0+g(x_{n-1}, ..., x_1). Given a function f on (n-1) bits, let N(f; r) be the number of functions generating a De Bruijn sequence of order n which are obtained by…
