This paper shows that the number of hooks of length k contained in all partitions of n equals k times the number of parts of length k in all partitions of n. It contains also formulas for the moments (under uniform distribution) of k-th…

We prove that in the geometric complexity theory program the vanishing of rectangular Kronecker coefficients cannot be used to prove superpolynomial determinantal complexity lower bounds for the permanent polynomial. Moreover, we prove the…

One of the central open problems in both algebraic combinatorics and representation theory is to find a positive combinatorial rule for Kronecker coefficients $ g_{\lambda \, \mu \, \nu}$. A notable advance in this direction is due to…

We consider the equal sum partition problem, motivated by distance magic graph labeling: Given $n,k \in \N$ such that $k\, | \sum_{i=1}^ni$ and a partition $p_1+\cdots+p_k=n$, when is it possible to find a partition of the set…

While Kronecker coefficients $g(\lambda,\mu,\nu)$ with bounded rows are polynomial-time computable via lattice-point methods, no explicit closed-form formulas have been obtained for genuinely three-row cases in the 87 years since…

We develop structural insights into the Littlewood-Richardson graph, whose number of vertices equals the Littlewood-Richardson coefficient c({\lambda},{\mu},{\nu}) for given partitions {\lambda}, {\mu}, and {\nu}. This graph was first…

We prove that for any partition $(\lambda_1,...,\lambda_{d^2})$ of size $\ell d$ there exists $k\ge 1$ such that the tensor square of the irreducible representation of the symmetric group $S_{k\ell d}$ with respect to the rectangular…

We use recent work of Jonah Blasiak (2012) to prove a stability result for the coefficients in the Kronecker product of two Schur functions: one indexed by a hook partition and one indexed by a rectangle partition. We also give bounds for…

This paper bounds the computational cost of computing the Kauffman bracket of a link in terms of the crossing number of that link. Specifically, it is shown that the image of a tangle with $g$ boundary points and $n$ crossings in the…

Let $\lambda$ be a partition of the positive integer $n$ chosen umiformly at random among all such partitions. Let $L_n=L_n(\lambda)$ and $M_n=M_n(\lambda)$ be the largest part size and its multiplicity, respectively. For large $n$, we…

The Kronecker coefficients and the Littlewood-Richardson coefficients are nonnegative integers depending on three partitions. By definition, these coefficients are the multiplicities of the tensor product decomposition of two irreducible…

In this paper we investigate the problem of partitioning an input string T in such a way that compressing individually its parts via a base-compressor C gets a compressed output that is shorter than applying C over the entire T at once.…

The counting of the dimension of the space of $U(N) \times U(N) \times U(N)$ polynomial invariants of a complex $3$-index tensor as a function of degree $n$ is known in terms of a sum of squares of Kronecker coefficients. For $n \le N$, the…

We study the computational model where we can access a matrix $\mathbf{A}$ only by computing matrix-vector products $\mathbf{A}\mathrm{x}$ for vectors of the form $\mathrm{x} = \mathrm{x}_1 \otimes \cdots \otimes \mathrm{x}_q$. We prove…

We relate the $m$-truncated Kronecker products of symmetric functions to the semi-invariant rings of a family of quiver representations. We find cluster algebra structures for these semi-invariant rings when $m=2$. Each {\sf g}-vector cone…

In this paper we apply a method of Robinson and Taulbee for computing Kronecker coefficients together with other ingredients and show that the multiplicity of each component in a Kronecker square can be obtained from an evaluation of a…

We generalize Regev's result on a virtual character of $S_n$. Suppose that $\lambda$ and $\mu$ are integer partitions of $n$. For the associated irreducible character $\chi^\lambda$ of $S_n$, when $\chi^\lambda(\mu)\neq0$ we find another…

Let $f : \{0,1\}^n \times \{0,1\}^n \rightarrow \{0,1\}$ be a 2-party function. For every product distribution $\mu$ on $\{0,1\}^n \times \{0,1\}^n$, we show that $$\mathsf{CC}^\mu_{0.49}(f) = O\left(\left(\log \mathsf{prt}_{1/8}(f) \cdot…

The set of hook lengths of an integer partition $\lambda$ is the complement of some numerical semigroup $S$. There has been recent interest in studying the number of partitions with a given set of hook lengths. Very little is known about…

We prove new formulas and congruences for $p(n,k):=$ the number of partitions of $n$ into $k$ parts and $q(n,k):=$ the number of partitions of $n$ into $k$ distinct parts. Also, we give lower and upper bounds for the density of the set…
