We give a direct proof of the equivalence between the Giambelli and Pieri type formulas for Hall-Littlewood functions using Young's raising operators, parallel to joint work with Buch and Kresch for the Schubert classes on isotropic…
In this paper we are concerned with a family of sums involving the floor function. With $r$ a non negative integer and $n$ and $m$ positive integers we consider the sums…
Recently the authors showed that the algebraic integers of the form $-m+\zeta_k$ are bases of a canonical number system of $\mathbb{Z}[\zeta_k]$ provided $m\geq \phi(k)+1$, where $\zeta_k$ denotes a $k$-th primitive root of unity and $\phi$…
The Carmichael lambda function $\lambda(n)$ is defined to be the smallest positive integer $m$ such that $a^m$ is congruent to 1 modulo $n,$ for all $a$ and $n$ relatively prime. The function $\lambda_k(n)$ is defined to be the $k$th…
The Euler-Maclaurin formula which relates a discrete sum with an integral, is generalised to the setting of Riemann-Stieltjes sums and integrals on stochastic processes whose paths are a.s. rectifiable, namely, continuous and with bounded…
We present an extension of the Hardy--Littlewood inequality for multilinear forms. More precisely, let $\mathbb{K}$ be the real or complex scalar field and $m,k$ be positive integers with $m\geq k\,$ and $n_{1},\dots ,n_{k}$ be positive…
In his book "Mathematics Rhyme and Reason," Currie discusses what he calls a $mysterious$ $pattern$ involving the sequence $ a_{n} = 2^n \sqrt{2 - \sqrt{2 + \sqrt{2 + \cdots + \sqrt{2}}}},$ where $n$ is the number of radicals. Part of the…
This paper deals with existence and regularity of positive solutions of singular elliptic problems on a smooth bounded domain with Dirichlet boundary conditions involving the $\Phi$-Laplacian operator. The proof of existence is based on a…
A natural Hasse-Schmidt derivation on the exterior algebra of a free module realizes the (small quantum) cohomology ring of the grassmannian $G_k(\CC^n)$ as a ring of operators on the exterior algebra of a free module of rank $n$. Classical…
We investigate the stability of a class of derivative theories known as $P(X)$ and Galileons against corrections generated by quantum effects. We use an exact renormalisation group approach to argue that these theories are stable under…
A classic sum rule by Das et al. is extended to seven of the low-energy constants $K_i$, introduced by Urech, which parameterize electromagnetic corrections at chiral order $O(e^2p^2)$. Using the spurion formalism, a simple convolution…
The primary purpose of this paper is to investigate the question of invertibility of the sum of operators. The setting is bounded and unbounded linear operators. Some interesting examples and consequences are given. As an illustrative…
We develop a calculus for $S_n$-equivariant Euler characteristics of moduli spaces of stable curves and stable maps. Our approach involves an enrichment of P\'olya's cycle index polynomial of a graph to a certain algebra $\Lambda^{[2]}$ of…
The theory of modular forms and spherical harmonic analysis are applied to establish new best bounds towards the counting and equidistribution of rational points on spheres and other higher dimensional ellipsoids, in what may be viewed as a…
The immaculate functions, $\mathfrak{S}_{\alpha}$, were introduced as a Schur-like basis for $\operatorname{\mathsf{Nsym}}$. We investigate facts about their structure constants. These are analogues of Littlewood-Richardson coefficents. We…
The algebra of polynomials in operators that represent generalized coordinate and momentum and depend on the Planck constant is defined. The Planck constant is treated as the parameter taking values between zero and some nonvanishing $h_0$.…
The product $s_\mu s_\nu$ of two Schur functions is one of the most famous examples of a Schur-positive function, i.e. a symmetric function which, when written as a linear combination of Schur functions, has all positive coefficients. We…
In this paper we consider one particular mathematical problem of this large area of fractional powers of self-adjoined elliptic operators, defined either by Dunford-Taylor-like integrals or by the representation through the spectrum of the…
For k a field of arbitrary characteristic, and R a k-algebra, we show that the PI degree of an iterated skew polynomial ring R[x_1;\tau_1,\delta_1]...b[x_n;\tau_n,\delta_n] agrees with the PI degree of R[x_1;\tau_1]...b[x_n;\tau_n] when…
In these notes we first review Pauli's proof of his `fundamental theorem' that states the equivalence of any two sets of Dirac matrices $\{ \gamma^\mu \}$. Due to this theorem not only all physical results in the context of the Dirac…
