We prove that there exist infinite families of regular bipartite Ramanujan graphs of every degree bigger than 2. We do this by proving a variant of a conjecture of Bilu and Linial about the existence of good 2-lifts of every graph. We also…
An irreducible character $\chi$ of an association scheme is called nonlinear if the multiplicity of $\chi$ is greater than $1$. The main result of this paper gives a characterization of commutative association schemes with at most two…
A new bi-parametric $su(1,1)$ algebraization of the Heun class of equations is explored. This yields additional quasi-polynomial solutions of the form $\{z^{\alpha}P_N(z): \ \alpha \in \mathbb{C}, \ N \in \mathbb{N}_0\}$ to the General Heun…
Schur superpolynomials have been introduced recently as limiting cases of the Macdonald superpolynomials. It turns out that there are two natural super-extensions of the Schur polynomials: in the limit $q=t=0$ and $q=t\rightarrow\infty$,…
In this paper, we obtain classification results for higher-dimensional analogues of classical association schemes called association schemes on triples (ASTs). We present an algorithm that enumerates all ASTs on a fixed number of vertices…
We consider a certain mixed polynomial which is an extended Lens equation $L_{n,m}=\bar z^m-p(z)/q(z)$ with $\text{degree}\, q=n$, $\text{degree}\, p<n$ whose numerator is a mixed polynomial of degree $(n+m;n,m)$. Then we consider its…
The theory of strong uniqueness polynomials, satisfying the separation condition (first introduced by Fujimoto \cite{Fuj1}), for complex meromorphic functions is quite complete. We construct examples of strong uniqueness polynomials which…
J. Davis showed that the topological concordance class of a link in the 3-sphere is uniquely determined by its Alexander polynomial for 2-component links with Alexander polynomial one. A similar result for knots with Alexander polynomial…
We present a structure theorem for the multiple non-cyclotomic irreducible factors appearing in the family of all univariate polynomials with a given set of coefficients and varying exponents. Roughly speaking, this result shows that the…
In this article, we apply some ideas developped by M. Cha{\l}upnik to the framework of strict polynomial bifunctors. This allows us to get a new proof of the existence of the `universal classes' originally constructed by the author.
We prove the existence of Gysin morphisms for hyperplane sections that may not satisfy the usual hypotheses of the Lefschetz hyperplane theorem. As an application, we show the triviality of the Alexander polynomial of a particular class of…
B\"uchi's problem asks whether there exists a positive integer $M$ such that any sequence $(x_n)$ of at least $M$ integers, whose second difference of squares is the constant sequence $(2)$, satisifies $x_n^2=(x+n)^2$ for some $x\in\Z$. A…
Let $q$ be a positive integer. In our recent paper, we proved that the cardinality of the complement of an integral arrangement, after the modulo $q$ reduction, is a quasi-polynomial of $q$, which we call the characteristic…
We introduce the entangled quantum polynomial hierarchy $\mathsf{QEPH}$ as the class of problems that are efficiently verifiable given alternating quantum proofs that may be entangled with each other. We prove $\mathsf{QEPH}$ collapses to…
Polyominoes are a subset of polygons which can be constructed from integer-length squares fused at their edges. A system of polygons P is interlocked if no subset of the polygons in P can be removed arbitrarily far away from the rest. It is…
We give positive answer to two conjectures posed by M. E. H Ismail in his monograph [Classical and quantum orthogonal polynomials in one variable, Cambridge University Press, 2005].
We classify complete permutation polynomials of type $aX^{\frac{q^n-1}{q-1}+1}$ over the finite field with $q^n$ elements, for $n+1$ a prime and $n^4 < q$. For the case $n+1$ a power of the characteristic we study some known families. We…
Wada and Suyari proposed a two-parameter generalization of Shannon-Khinchin axioms (TGSK axioms) [T. Wada and H. Suyari, Physics Letters A, 368(3)]. We derive a new class of entropies which differs from Wada-Suyari's class by fixing the…
The concept of multialgebraic structure -- an "algebraic like" structure but endowed with multiple valued operations -- has been studied since the 1930's; in particular, the concept of hyperrings was introduced by Krasner in the 1950's.…
The q-Legendre polynomials can be treated as some special "functions in the quantum double cosets $U(1)\setminus SU_q(2)/U(1)$". They form a family (depending on a parameter $q$) of polynomials in one variable. We get their further…
