Recently, Nath and Das investigated congruence properties for the second order mock theta function $B(q)$. In their paper, they asked for analytic proofs of three identities on the second order mock theta functions $A(q)$, $B(q)$ and…
We are often interested in decomposing complex, structured data into simple components that explain the data. The linear version of this problem is well-studied as dictionary learning and factor analysis. In this work, we propose a…
This article investigates combinatorial properties of non-ambiguous trees. These objects we define may be seen either as binary trees drawn on a grid with some constraints, or as a subset of the tree-like tableaux previously defined by…
A paper of the first author and Zilke proposed seven combinatorial problems around formulas for the characteristic polynomial and the exponents of an isolated quasihomogeneous singularity. The most important of them was a conjecture on the…
We introduce a full binary directed tree structure to represent the set of natural numbers, further categorizing them into three distinct subsets: pure odd numbers, pure even numbers, and mixed numbers. We adopt a binary string…
The theory of Bailey's transform provides a systematic method for deriving $q$-identities, the key factor of which is the Bailey pair. The concept of Bailey pair was first extended to bilateral version by Paule. In this paper, following…
We investigate a class of combinatory algebras, called ribbon combinatory algebras, in which we can interpret both the braided untyped linear lambda calculus and framed oriented tangles. Any reflexive object in a ribbon category gives rise…
In language learning in the limit, the most common type of hypothesis is to give an enumerator for a language. This so-called $W$-index allows for naming arbitrary computably enumerable languages, with the drawback that even the membership…
Brualdi and Ma found a connection between involutions of length $n$ with $k$ descents and symmetric $k\times k$ matrices with non-negative integer entries summing to $n$ and having no row or column of zeros. From their main theorem they…
Strict partitions are enumerated with respect to the weight, the number of parts, and the number of sequences of odd length. We write this trivariate generating function as a double sum $q$-series. Equipped with such a combinatorial set-up,…
Irreducible characters in the symmetric group are of special interest in combinatorics. They can be expressed either combinatorially with ribbon tableaux, or algebraically with contents. In this paper, these two expressions are related in a…
An identity by Ramanujan related to the multisection of Bernoulli numbers is revisited. Two alternative approaches are proposed, both relying on the multisection technique. A geometric approach reveals the role played by the symmetries of…
Andrews and the third author recently studied congruences for certain restricted two-color partitions. They made two conjectures for Ramanujan-type congruences and a vanishing identity for the limiting sequence. In this paper, we settle…
In 1980, Bressoud conjectured a combinatorial identity $A_j=B_j$ for $j=0$ or $1$, where the function $A_j$ counts the number of partitions with certain congruence conditions and the function $B_j$ counts the number of partitions with…
Stanley's Tree Isomorphism Conjecture posits that the chromatic symmetric function can distinguish non-isomorphic trees. While already established for caterpillars and other subclasses of trees, we prove the conjecture's validity for a new…
In the Proceedings of the AMS Boulder conference in 1965 Langlands states a combinatorial lemma involving families of characteristic functions attached to ordered partitions of an obtuse basis in a finite dimensional euclidean vector space.…
The Rogers-Ramanujan identities have been studied from the viewpoints of combinatorics, number theory, affine Lie algebras, statistical mechanics, and quantum field theory. This note connects the Rogers-Ramanujan identities with the finite…
Building on results by Abouzahra and Lewin, McIntosh, and Kirilov we derive new functional dilogarithm equations and consequent diologarithim ladders. By showing that the ratio of a pair of sextic and cubic integrals equals a rational…
In this series of articles we study connections between combinatorics of multidimensional generalizations of Cauchy identity and continuous objects such as multidimensional Brownian motions and Brownian bridges. In Part I of the series we…
In this note, we find a combinatorial identity which is closely related to the multi-dimensional integral $\gamma_{m}$ in the study of divisor functions. As an application, we determine the finite dual of the group algebra of infinite…
