We introduce and study the Weingarten calculus for centered random permutation matrices in the symmetric group S_N. After presenting a formulation of the Weingarten calculus on the symmetric group, we derive a formula in the centered case,…

We study the partial Hadamard matrices $H\in M_{M\times N}(\mathbb C)$ which are regular, in the sense that the scalar products between pairs of distinct rows decompose as sums of cycles (rotated sums of roots of unity). The simplest…

We give a definition of Radon hypergeometric function (Radon HGF) of confluent and nonconfluent type, which is a function on the Grassmannian Gr(m,nr) obtained as a Radon transform of a character of the universal covering group of…

We consider conjugacy of integral matrices by elements in $\text{GL}_{n}(R)$ for certain rings $R$ with subring $\mathbb{Z}$. We note that a Hasse principal does not hold in the context of matrix conjugacy because matrices which are…

We consider the ensemble of $n \times n$ Wigner hermitian matrices $H = (h_{\ell k})_{1 \leq \ell,k \leq n}$ that generalize the Gaussian unitary ensemble (GUE). The matrix elements $h_{k\ell} = \bar h_{\ell k}$ are given by $h_{\ell k} =…

A large branch of explainable machine learning is grounded in cooperative game theory. However, research indicates that game-theoretic explanations may mislead or be hard to interpret. We argue that often there is a critical mismatch…

Let $G/H$ be a Galois symmetric space for an unramified quadratic extension of a locally compact field $F$, where the group $H$ is semisimple, simply connected, defined and split over $F$. We prove that there exists a subgroup $\Gamma =…

The Helmholtz-Hodge decomposition (HHD) is applied to the construction of Lyapunov functions. It is shown that if a stability condition is satisfied, such a decomposition can be chosen so that its potential function is a Lyapunov function.…

We show that the Galois cohomology groups of $p$-adic representations of a direct power of $\operatorname{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{Q}_p}/\mathbb{Q}_p)$ can be computed via the generalization of Herr's complex to multivariable…

Let $G$ be a split reductive group over a $p$-adic field $F$. Let $B$ be a Borel subgroup and $U$ the maximal unipotent subgroup of $B$. Let $\psi$ be a Whittaker character of $U$. Let $I$ be an Iwahori subgroup of $G$. We describe the…

We consider a $Q$-polynomial distance-regular graph $\Gamma$ with vertex set $X$ and diameter $D \geq 3$. For $\mu, \nu \in \lbrace \downarrow, \uparrow \rbrace$ we define a direct sum decomposition of the standard module $V=\C X$, called…

Let $H$ be a generic affine Hecke algebra (Iwahori-Matsumoto definition) over a polynomial algebra with a finite number of indeterminates over the ring of integers. We prove the existence of an integral Bernstein-Lusztig basis related to…

In Graph Theory a number of results were devoted to studying the computational complexity of the number modulo 2 of a graph's edge set decompositions of various kinds, first of all including its Hamiltonian decompositions, as well as the…

We derive $p$-adic expansions for the generalized Harmonic numbers $H^{(j)}_{p-1}$ and $H^{(j)}_{\frac{p-1}{2}}$ involving the Bernoulli numbers $B_j$ and the the base-2 Fermat quotient $q_p$. While most of our results are not new, we…

The Hermite-Birkhoff interpolation problem of a function given on arbitrarily distributed points on the sphere and other manifolds is considered. Each proposed interpolant is expressed as a linear combination of basis functions, the…

The classical Bakry-\'Emery calculus is extended to study, for degenerated (non-elliptic, non-reversible, or non-diffusive) Markov processes, questions such as hypoellipticity, hypocoercivity, functional inequalities or Wasserstein…

We generalise a result of Hedenmalm to show that if a function $f$ on $\mathbb{R}$ is such that $\int_{\mathbb{R}^2} \bigl|f(x) \, \hat f(y)\bigr| \,e^{\lambda \left|xy\right|} \,dx\,dy = O( (1-\lambda)^{-N} )$ as $\lambda \to 1-$, then $f$…

Graphs are very important mathematical structures used in many applications, one of which is transportation science. When dealing with transportation networks, one deals not only with the network structure, but also with information related…

Over a field $K$ of characteristic $p$, let $Z$ be the incidence variety in $\mathbb{P}^d \times (\mathbb{P}^d)^*$ and let $\mathcal{L}$ be the restriction to $Z$ of the line bundle $\mathcal{O}(-n-d) \boxtimes \mathcal{O}(n)$, where $n =…

Suppose that $H(q,p)$ is a Hamiltonian on a manifold $M$, and $\tilde L(q,\dot q)$, the Rayleigh dissipation function, satisfies the same hypotheses as a Lagrangian on the manifold $M$. We provide a Hamiltonian framework that gives the…
