Given k similarity classes of invertible matrices, the Deligne-Simpson problem asks to determine whether or not one can find matrices in these classes whose product is the identity and with no common invariant subspace. The first author…
Properties of several sorts of lattices of convex subsets of R^n are examined. The lattice of convex sets containing the origin turns out, for n>1, to satisfy a set of identities strictly between those of the lattice of all convex subsets…
Trying to enumerate all of the walks in a 2D lattice is a fun combinatorial problem and there are numerous applications, from polymers to sports. Computers provide a wonderful tool for analyzing these walks; we provide a Maple package for…
We enumerate permutations that avoid all but one of the $k$ patterns of length $k$ starting with a monotone increasing subsequence of length $k-1$. We compare the size of such permutation classes to the size of the class of permutations…
Fix a finite set $S \subset {GL}(k,\mathbb{Z})$. Denote by $a_n$ the number of products of matrices in $S$ of length $n$ that are equal to 1. We show that the sequence $\{a_n\}$ is not always P-recursive. This answers a question of…
We discuss the lattice of cotorsion theories for abelian groups. First we show that the sublattice of the well-studied rational cotorsion theories can be identified with the well-known lattice of types. Using a recently developed method for…
We consider Euclidean lattices spanned by images of algebraic conjugates of an algebraic number under Minkowski embedding, investigating their rank, properties of their automorphism groups and sets of minimal vectors. We are especially…
In this note we analyse the Lie algebras of physical states stemming from lattice constructions on general even, self-dual lattices Gamma^{p,q} with p greater or equal to q. It is known that if the lattice is at most Lorentzian, the…
Let $n$ be a positive integer, and let $R$ be a (possibly infinite dimensional) finitely presented algebra over a computable field of characteristic zero. We describe an algorithm for deciding (in principle) whether $R$ has at most finitely…
We prove that every finite lattice L can be embedded in a three-generated finite lattice K. We also prove that every algebraic lattice with accessible cardinality is a complete sublattice of an appropriate algebraic lattice K such that K is…
Two matrices with elements taken from the set {-1,1} are Hadamard equivalent if one can be converted into the other by a sequence of permutations of rows and columns, and negations of rows and columns. In this paper we summarize what is…
We investigate enumerability properties for classes of sets which permit recursive, lexicographically increasing approximations, or left-r.e. sets. In addition to pinpointing the complexity of left-r.e. Martin-L\"{o}f, computably, Schnorr,…
We investigate $(0,1)$-matrices that are {\em convex}, which means that the ones are consecutive in every row and column. These matrices occur in discrete tomography. The notion of ranked essential sets, known for permutation matrices, is…
We prove that the classification problem for graphs and several types of algebraic lattices (distributive, congruence and modular) up to isomorphism contains the classification problem for pairs of matrices up to simultaneous similarity.
We affirm a conjecture of Sacks [1972] by showing that every countable distributive lattice is isomorphic to an initial segment of the hyperdegrees, $\mathcal{D}_{h}$. In fact, we prove that every sublattice of any hyperarithmetic lattice…
We consider the number of passes a permutation needs to take through a stack if we only pop the appropriate output values and start over with the remaining entries in their original order. We define a permutation $\pi$ to be $k$-pass…
We consider two infinite classes of ordinary difference equations admitting Lax pair representation. Discrete equations in these classes are parameterized by two integers $k\geq 0$ and $s\geq k+1$. We describe the first integrals for these…
In order to make graphical Gaussian models a viable modelling tool when the number of variables outgrows the number of observations, model classes which place equality restrictions on concentrations or partial correlations have previously…
Odd, positive-definite, integral, unimodular lattices N of rank 24 were classified by Borcherds. There are 273 isometry classes of such lattices. Associated to them are vertex superalgebras $V_N$ of central charge c=24. We show that at…
Enumerating polygons on regular lattices is a classic problem in rigorous statistical mechanics. The goal of enumerating polygons on the square lattice via fermionic path integration was achieved using a free-fermion quadratic action in the…
