We characterize the entire functions $P$ of $d$ variables, $d\ge 2,$ for which the $\mzd$-translates of $P\chi_{[0,N]^d}$ satisfy the partition of unity for some $N\in \mn.$ In contrast to the one-dimensional case, these entire functions…
Partitions of unity in ${\mathbf R}^d$ formed by (matrix) scales of a fixed function appear in many parts of harmonic analysis, e.g., wavelet analysis and the analysis of Triebel-Lizorkin spaces. We give a simple characterization of the…
In this note, we provide a simple derivation of expressions for the restricted partition function and its polynomial part. Our proof relies on elementary algebra on rational functions and a lemma that expresses the polynomial part as an…
The main aim of this paper is twofold: (1) Suggesting a statistical mechanical approach to the calculation of the generating function of restricted integer partition functions which count the number of partitions --- a way of writing an…
Given a complete graph with positive weights on its edges, we define the weight of a subset of edges as the product of weights of the edges in the subset and consider sums (partition functions) of weights over subsets of various kinds:…
We investigate uniqueness problems for an entire function that shares two small functions of finite order with their difference operators. In particular, we give a generalization of a result in $[2]$.
In the paper, the author studies properties of three functions relating to the exponential function and the existence of partitions of unity, including accurate and explicit computation of their derivatives, analyticity, complete…
We prove a structure theorem for multiplicative functions which states that an arbitrary bounded multiplicative function can be decomposed into two terms, one that is approximately periodic and another that has small Gowers uniformity norm…
We pursue the question how integers can be ordered or partitioned according to their divisibility properties. Based on pseudometrics on $\mathbb{Z}$, we investigate induced preorders, associated equivalence relations, and quotient sets. The…
We study an abstract setting for cutting planes for integer programming called the infinite group problem. In this abstraction, cutting planes are computed via cut generating function that act on the simplex tableau. In this function space,…
MacMahon showed that the generating function for partitions into at most $k$ parts can be decomposed into a partial fractions-type sum indexed by the partitions of $k$. In this present work, a generalization of MacMahon's result is given,…
One of the most common types of functions in mathematics, physics, and engineering is a sum of products, sometimes called a partition function. After "normalization," a sum of products has a natural graphical representation, called a normal…
Partition functions for non-interacting particles are known to be symmetric functions. It is shown that powerful group-theoretical techniques can be used not only to derive these relationships, but also to significantly simplify calculation…
We demonstrate that statistics for several types of set partitions are described by generating functions which appear in the theory of integrable equations.
We propose a simple estimator that allows to calculate the absolute value of a system's partition function from a finite sampling of its canonical ensemble. The estimator utilizes a volume correction term to compensate the effect that the…
We examine "partition zeta functions" analogous to the Riemann zeta function but summed over subsets of integer partitions. We prove an explicit formula for a family of partition zeta functions already shown to have nice properties -- those…
We identify a class of continuous compactly supported functions for which the known part of the Gabor frame set can be extended. At least for functions with support on an interval of length two, the curve determining the set touches the…
Partition functions arise in statistical physics and probability theory as the normalizing constant of Gibbs measures and in combinatorics and graph theory as graph polynomials. For instance the partition functions of the hard-core model…
Partition of unity methods (PUMs) on graphs are simple and highly adaptive auxiliary tools for graph signal processing. Based on a greedy-type metric clustering and augmentation scheme, we show how a partition of unity can be generated in…
The work is devoted to the construction of a new type of intervals -- functional intervals. These intervals are built on the idea of expanding boundaries from numbers to functions. Functional intervals have shown themselves to be promising…
