Lattices with a circulant generator matrix represent a subclass of cyclic lattices. This subclass can be described by a basis containing a vector and its circular shifts. In this paper, we present certain conditions under which the norm…
We give an explicit construction of the factorizing twists for the Yangian Y(sl_2) in evaluation representations (not necessarily finite-dimensional). The result is a universal expression for the factorizing twist that holds in all these…
In this paper we give a purely categorical construction of d-fold matrix factorizations of a natural transformation, for any even integer d. This recovers the classical definition of those for regular elements in commutative rings due to…
We report on the results of an ongoing calculation of massive scalar one-loop one-, two-, three- and four-point functions needed in the NNLO calculation of heavy hadron production.
We formulate a type B extended nilHecke algebra, following the type A construction of Naisse and Vaz. We describe an action of this algebra on extended polynomials and describe some results on the structure on the extended symmetric…
A well known result by Lagarias and Ziegler states that there are finitely many equivalence classes of d-dimensional lattice polytopes having volume at most K, for fixed constants d and K. We describe an algorithm for the complete…
Let $ES_{d}(n)$ be the smallest integer such that any set of $ES_{d}(n)$ points in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ in general position contains $n$ points in convex position. In 1960, Erd\H{o}s and Szekeres showed that $ES_{2}(n) \geq 2^{n-2} + 1$ holds,…
For odd square-free n > 1 the n-th cyclotomic polynomial satisfies an identity of Gauss. There are similar identity of Aurifeuille, Le Lasseur and Lucas. These identities all involve certain polynomials with integer coefficients. We show…
Consider the global wellposedness problem for nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation \[ i\partial_t u = [-\tfrac{1}{2} \Delta + V(x)] u \pm |u|^{4/(d-2)} u, \ u(0) \in \Sigma(\mathbf{R}^d), \] where $\Sigma$ is the weighted Sobolev space…
Signed Minkowski decomposition is an expression of a polytope as a Minkowski sum and difference of smaller polytopes. Signed Minkowski decompositions of a polytope can be interpreted as factorizations of a max-plus (tropical) function. We…
We show that any bounded integral function $f : A \times B \mapsto \{0,1, \dots, \Delta\}$ with rank $r$ has deterministic communication complexity $\Delta^{O(\Delta)} \cdot \sqrt{r} \cdot \log r$, where the rank of $f$ is defined to be the…
Cyclic codes of dimension $2$ over a finite field are shown to have at most two nonzero weights. This extends a construction of Rao et al (2010) and disproves a conjecture of Schmidt-White (2002). We compute their weight distribution, and…
During their investigation of power-sequence terraces, Anderson and Preece briefly mention a construction of a terrace for the cyclic group $\mathbb{Z}_n$ when $n$ is odd and $2n+1$ is prime; it is built using the discrete logarithm modulo…
We show how the Tutte polynomial of a matroid $M$ can be computed from its condensed configuration, which is a statistic of its lattice of cyclic flats. The results imply that the Tutte polynomial of $M$ is already determined by the…
The study of near-factorizations of finite groups dates back to the 1950s. Recently, this topic has attracted renewed attention, and the concept has been extended to $\lambda$-fold near-factorizations, in which each non-identity group…
We study the formula complexity of Iterated Sub-Permutation Matrix Multiplication, the logspace-complete problem of computing the product of $k$ $n$-by-$n$ Boolean matrices with at most a single $1$ in each row and column. For all $d \le…
Let $p$ be a prime number, $p=2^nq+1$, where $q$ is odd. D. Shanks described an algorithm to compute square roots $\pmod{p}$ which needs $O(\log q + n^2)$ modular multiplications. In this note we describe two modifications of this…
We show that there are simple 4-dimensional polytopes with n vertices such that all separators of the graph have size at least $\Omega(n/\log n)$. This establishes a strong form of a claim by Thurston, for which the construction and proof…
We introduce and study a $d$-dimensional generalization of Hamiltonian cycles in graphs - the Hamiltonian $d$-cycles in $K_n^d$ (the complete simplicial $d$-complex over a vertex set of size $n$). Those are the simple $d$-cycles of a…
Recently, Venkatesh improved the best known lower bound for lattice sphere packings by a factor $\log\log n$ for infinitely many dimensions $n$. Here we prove an effective version of this result, in the sense that we exhibit, for the same…
