Given a positive integer $r$ and a prime power $q$, we estimate the probability that the characteristic polynomial $f_{A}(t)$ of a random matrix $A$ in $\mathrm{GL}_{n}(\mathbb{F}_{q})$ is square-free with $r$ (monic) irreducible factors…
I. P. Goulden, S. Litsyn, and V. Shevelev [On a sequence arising in algebraic geometry, J. Integer Sequences 8 (2005), 05.4.7] conjectured that certain Laurent polynomials associated with the solution of a functional equation have only odd…
We prove two "master" convolution theorems for multivariate determinantal polynomials. The methods used include basic properties of what we call a "minor-orthogonal" ensemble as well as properties of the mixed discriminant of matrices. We…
By viewing non-commutative polynomials, that is, elements in free associative algebras, in terms of linear representations, we generalize Horner's rule to the non-commutative (multivariate) setting. We introduce the concept of Horner…
The non-commutative five-term relation $T_{1,0} T_{0,1} = T_{0,1} T_{1,1} T_{1,0}$ is shown to hold for certain operators acting on symmetric functions. The "generalized recursion" conjecture of Bergeron and Haiman is a corollary of this…
Particular class of skew orthogonal polynomials are introduced and investigated, which possess Laurent symmetry. They are also shown to appear as eigenfunctions of symplectic generalized eigenvalue problems. The modification of these…
We show a precise formula, in the form of a monomial, for certain families of parabolic Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials of the symmetric group. The proof stems from results of Lapid-Minguez on irreducibility of products in the…
Let $\{P_n \}_{n\ge0}$ be a sequence of monic orthogonal polynomials with respect to a quasi--definite linear functional $u$ and $\{Q_n \}_{n\ge0}$ a sequence of polynomials defined by $$Q_n(x)=P_n(x)+s_n P_{n-1}(x)+t_n P_{n-2}(x),\quad…
We consider the Jacobi matrix generated by a balanced measure of hyperbolic polynomial map. The conjecture of Bellissard says that this matrix should have an extremely strong periodicity property. We show how this conjecture is related to a…
We studies the Newton polygon for the L-function of toric exponential sums attached to a family of two variable generalized hyperkloosterman sum,$f_{t}(x,y)=x^{n}+y+\frac{t}{xy}$ with $t$ the parameter. The explicit Newton polygon is…
We consider systems of ODEs with the right hand side being Laurent polynomials in several non-commutative unknowns. In particular, these unknowns could be matrices of arbitrary size. An important example of such a system was proposed by M.…
For a polynomial in several variables depending on some parameters, we discuss some results to the effect that for almost all values of the parameters the polynomial is irreducible. In particular we recast in this perspective some results…
Irreducibility results for parabolic induction of representations of the general linear group over a local non-archimedean field can be formulated in terms of Kazhdan--Lusztig polynomials of type $A$. Spurred by these results and some…
Inhomogeneous analogues of symmetric and nonsymmetric Macdonald polynomials were introduced by F. Knop and the author. In the symmetric case A. Okounkov has recently proved a beautiful expansion formula which can be viewed as a…
For arbitrary Coxeter systems, we prove that inverse Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials satisfy a monotonicity property. This follows from the validity of Soergel's conjecture and the existence of injective morphisms between Rouquier complexes in…
Motivated by a construction in the theory of cluster algebras (Fomin and Zelevinsky), one associates to each acyclic directed graph a family of sequences of natural integers, one for each vertex; this construction is called a {\em frieze};…
We define a theory of noncommutative general relativity for canonical noncommutative spaces. We find a subclass of general coordinate transformations acting on canonical noncommutative spacetimes to be volume-preserving transformations.…
Associated to any acyclic cluster algebra is a corresponding triangulated category known as the cluster category. It is known that there is a one-to-one correspondence between cluster variables in the cluster algebra and exceptional…
Let $\lambda$ denote the Liouville function. A problem posed by Chowla and by Cassaigne-Ferenczi-Mauduit-Rivat-S\'ark\"ozy asks to show that if $P(x)\in \mathbb{Z}[x]$, then the sequence $\lambda(P(n))$ changes sign infinitely often,…
We study cluster algebras that are associated to unpunctured surfaces with coefficients arising from boundary arcs. We give a direct formula for the Laurent polynomial expansion of cluster variables in these cluster algebras in terms of…
