Our main goal is to compute the decomposition of arbitrary Kronecker powers of the Harmonics of $S_n$. To do this, we give a new way of decomposing the character for the action of $S_n$ on polynomial rings with $k$ sets of $n$ variables.…

A graph $G = (V,E)$ is $\textit{monopolar}$ if its vertex set admits a partition $V = (C \uplus{} I)$ where $G[C]$ is a $\textit{cluster graph}$ and $I$ is an $\textit{independent set}$ in $G$; this is a \textit{monopolar partition} of $G$.…

This paper consists of two prongs. Firstly, we prove that any Specht module labelled by a 2-separated partition is semisimple and we completely determine its decomposition as a direct sum of graded simple modules. Secondly, we apply these…

We study the time complexity of the weighted first-order model counting (WFOMC) over the logical language with two variables and counting quantifiers. The problem is known to be solvable in time polynomial in the domain size. However, the…

This paper explores the computational complexity of various natural one-variable fragments of first-order modal logics with the addition of counting quantifiers, over both constant and varying domains. The addition of counting quantifiers…

For $n \in \mathbb{N}$ let $\Pi[n]$ denote the set of partitions of $n$, i.e., the set of positive integer tuples $(x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_k)$ such that $x_1 \geq x_2 \geq \cdots \geq x_k$ and $x_1 + x_2 + \cdots + x_k = n$. Fixing…

We specify the frontier of decidability for fragments of the first-order theory of ordinal multiplication. We give a NEXPTIME lower bound for the complexity of the existential fragment of $\langle \omega^{\omega^\lambda}; \times, \omega,…

We establish a hook length bias between self-conjugate partitions and partitions of distinct odd parts, demonstrating that there are more hooks of fixed length $t \geq 2$ among self-conjugate partitions of $n$ than among partitions of…

In this paper we give a combinatorial interpretation for the coefficient of $s_{\nu}$ in the Kronecker product $s_{(n-p,p)}\ast s_{\lambda}$, where $\lambda=(\lambda_1, ..., \lambda_{\ell(\lambda)})\vdash n$, if $\ell(\lambda)\geq 2p-1$ or…

This work investigates the algorithmic complexity of non-classical logics, focusing on superintuitionistic and modal systems. It is shown that propositional logics are usually polynomial-time reducible to their fragments with at most two…

It is known due to the work of Van den Broeck et al [KR, 2014] that weighted first-order model counting (WFOMC) in the two-variable fragment of first-order logic can be solved in time polynomial in the number of domain elements. In this…

It is shown that one can count $k$-edge paths in an $n$-vertex graph and $m$-set $k$-packings on an $n$-element universe, respectively, in time ${n \choose k/2}$ and ${n \choose mk/2}$, up to a factor polynomial in $n$, $k$, and $m$; in…

We make progress towards understanding the structure of Littlewood-Richardson coefficients $g_{\lambda,\mu}^{\nu}$ for products of Jack symmetric functions. Building on recent results of the second author, we are able to prove new cases of…

We consider the Minimum Convex Partition problem: Given a set P of n points in the plane, draw a plane graph G on P, with positive minimum degree, such that G partitions the convex hull of P into a minimum number of convex faces. We show…

We show that disjointness requires randomized communication Omega(n^{1/(k+1)}/2^{2^k}) in the general k-party number-on-the-forehead model of complexity. The previous best lower bound for k >= 3 was log(n)/(k-1). Our results give a…

We present three algorithms to compute the complexity $\Vert n\Vert$ of all natural numbers $ n\le N$. The first of them is a brute force algorithm, computing all these complexities in time $O(N^2)$ and space $O(N\log^2 N)$. The main…

We present a study of three families of Kronecker coefficients, which we describe in terms of reduced Kronecker coefficients. This study is grounded on the generating function of the coefficients, proved by a bijection between two…

The question if a given partial solution to a problem can be extended reasonably occurs in many algorithmic approaches for optimization problems. For instance, when enumerating minimal dominating sets of a graph $G=(V,E)$, one usually…

In this paper we explore Kruyswijk's method and show how to obtain congruences for cubic partition. That apart we also examine inequalities for a(n) and provide upper bound for it in the fashion of the classic partition function p(n).

Let $G_1, \dots, G_k$ be vector spaces over a finite field $\mathbb{F} = \mathbb{F}_q$ with a non-trivial additive character $\chi$. The analytic rank of a multilinear form $\alpha \colon G_1 \times \dots \times G_k \to \mathbb{F}$ is…
