In this note a combinatorial formula related to the symmetric group is generalized to an arbitrary finite Weyl group.
We study two new families of symmetric functions arising from a species-theoretic construction motivated by cycle structure. For each partition of $n$, we define two combinatorial species that decompose into molecules indexed by the same…
Panagiotou and Stufler recently proved an important fact on their way to establish the scaling limits of random P\'olya trees: a uniform random P\'olya tree of size $n$ consists of a conditioned critical Galton-Watson tree $C_n$ and many…
We introduce generalised orbit algebras. The purpose here is to measure how some combinatorial properties can characterize the action of a group of permutations on the subsets. The similarity with orbit algebras is such that it took the…
A conventional context for supersymmetric problems arises when we consider systems containing both boson and fermion operators. In this note we consider the normal ordering problem for a string of such operators. In the general case, upon…
We construct a birational invariant for certain algebraic group actions. We use this invariant to classify linear representations of finite abelian groups up to birational equivalence, thus answering, in a special case, a question of E. B.…
Let A be a class of objects, equipped with an integer size such that for all n the number a(n) of objects of size n is finite. We are interested in the case where the generating fucntion sum_n a(n) t^n is rational, or more generally…
Let R be a commutative ring with unity, M be an unitary R-module and {\Gamma} be a simple graph. This research article is an interplay of combinatorial and algebraic properties of M . We show a combinatorial object completely determines an…
Given a conjugacy class $\mathcal{C}$ in a group $G$ we define a new graph, $\Gamma(\mathcal{C})$, whose vertices are elements of $\mathcal{C}$; two vertices $g,h\in \mathcal{C}$ are connected in $\Gamma(\mathcal{C})$ if $[g,h]=1$ and…
Classical functional linear regression models the relationship between a scalar response and a functional covariate, where the coefficient function is assumed to be identical for all subjects. In this paper, the classical model is extended…
We characterize the biorthogonal ensembles that are both a multiple orthogonal polynomial ensemble and a polynomial ensemble of derivative type (also called a P\'olya ensemble). We focus on the notions of multiplicative and additive…
Standard methods of using categorical variables as predictors either endow them with an ordinal structure or assume they have no structure at all. However, categorical variables often possess structure that is more complicated than a linear…
Stanley and F\'eray gave a formula for the irreducible character of the symmetric group related to a multi-rectangular Young diagram. This formula shows that the character is a polynomial in the multi-rectangular coordinates and gives an…
This was supposed to be an appendix to the book "Non-structure", and probably will be if it materializes. It presents relevant material, sometimes new, which was used in works which were supposed to be part of that book. In section 1 we…
This paper establishes a novel combinatorial framework at the intersection of Lie theory and algebraic combinatorics, based on a generalization of the Kostant game. We begin by reviewing the foundations of root systems, the classification…
We study the homotopy theory of a certain type of diagram categories whose vertices are in variable categories with a functorial path, leading to a good calculation of the homotopy category in terms of cofibrant objects. The theory is…
We study generalized splines from the perspective of the representation theory of the category of graphs with contractions. Our main theorem proves a kind of finite generation, which in turn implies the existence of a ``universal generating…
We generalize the character formulas for multiplicities of irreducible constituents from group theory to semigroup theory using Rota's theory of M\"obius inversion. The technique works for a large class of semigroups including: inverse…
We study properties of the cubical Joyal model structures on cubical sets by means of a combinatorial construction which allows for convenient comparisons between categories of cubical sets with and without symmetries. In particular, we…
In [Joyal] where the category $\Theta$ is first defined it is noted that the dimensional shift on $\Theta$ suggests an elegant presentation of the unreduced suspension on cellular sets. In this note we prove that the reduced suspension…
