The parabolic Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials for Grassmannians can be computed by counting Dyck partitions. We "lift" this combinatorial formula to the corresponding category of singular Soergel bimodules to obtain bases of the Hom spaces…
Drinfeld twists, and the twists of Giaquinto and Zhang, allow for algebras and their modules to be deformed by a cocycle. We prove general results about cocycle twists of algebra factorisations and induced representations and apply them to…
The partition algebra $\mathsf{P}_k(n)$ and the symmetric group $\mathsf{S}_n$ are in Schur-Weyl duality on the $k$-fold tensor power $\mathsf{M}_n^{\otimes k}$ of the permutation module $\mathsf{M}_n$ of $\mathsf{S}_n$, so there is a…
Counting lattice points and triangulating polytopes is a prominent subject in discrete geometry, yet proving Ehrhart positivity or existence of unimodular triangulations remain of utmost difficulty in general, even for ``easy'' simplices.…
We define the dimension 2g-1 Faber-Hurwitz Chow/homology classes on the moduli space of curves, parametrizing curves expressible as branched covers of P^1 with given ramification over infinity and sufficiently many fixed ramification points…
We develop numerical homotopy algorithms for solving systems of polynomial equations arising from the classical Schubert calculus. These homotopies are optimal in that generically no paths diverge. For problems defined by hypersurface…
These notes describe some links between the group $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$, the Heisenberg group and hypercomplex numbers---complex, dual and double numbers. Relations between quantum and classical mechanics are clarified in this…
In \cite{Lusztig}, Lusztig gives an explicit formula for the bijection between the set of bipartitions and the set $\mathcal{N}$ of unipotent classes in a spin group which carry irreducible local systems equivariant for the spin group but…
Combinatorial $B_n$-analogues of Schubert polynomials and corresponding symmetric functions are constructed from an exponential solution of the $B_n$-Yang-Baxter equation that involves the nilCoxeter algebra of the hyperoctahedral group.
We extend the classical construction of operator colligations and characteristic functions. Consider the group $G$ of finite block unitary matrices of size $\alpha+\infty+...+\infty$ ($k$ times). Consider the subgroup $K=U(\infty)$, which…
The Springer modules have a combinatorial property called ``coincidence of dimensions,'' i.e., the Springer modules are naturally decomposed into submodules with common dimensions. Morita and Nakajima proved the property by giving modules…
We introduce a path-theoretic framework for understanding the representation theory of (quantum) symmetric and general linear groups and their higher level generalisations over fields of arbitrary characteristic. Our first main result is a…
Traces of singular moduli were introduced and studied by Zagier in 1998. Being simultaneously the (traces of) values of a modular function ($j$-invariant) and Fourier coefficients of modular forms - which constitutes Zagier's duality -…
In a purely multi-variable setting (i.e., the issues discussed in this note are not interesting in the single variable operator theory setting), we show that the coincidence of two operator valued Schur class multipliers of a certain kind…
The evolution of both quantum and classical ensembles may be described via the probability density P on configuration space, its canonical conjugate S, and an_ensemble_ Hamiltonian H[P,S]. For quantum ensembles this evolution is, of course,…
Regular semisimple Hessenberg varieties are a family of subvarieties of the flag variety that arise in number theory, numerical analysis, representation theory, algebraic geometry, and combinatorics. We give a "Giambelli formula" expressing…
Theory of motivic superpolynomials is developed, including its extension to algebraic links colored by rows, relations to $L$-functions of plane curve singularities, the justification of the motivic versions of Weak Riemann Hypothesis, and…
This note is about the observation that the various transition formulas between bases of trigonometric polynomials can be expressed in terms binomial coefficients. More specifically, we write the entries of the Chebyshev matrices $ T$ and $…
Let $\Gamma$ be a countable group. A classical theorem of Thorisson states that if $X$ is a standard Borel $\Gamma$-space and $\mu$ and $\nu$ are Borel probability measures on $X$ which agree on every $\Gamma$-invariant subset, then $\mu$…
We introduce new notions in elliptic Schubert calculus: the (twisted) Borisov-Libgober classes of Schubert varieties in general homogeneous spaces G/P. While these classes do not depend on any choice, they depend on a set of new variables.…
