In this papar, we point out some mistakes in a proof of an important combinatorial property of $S(\mathbb{A}_n)$, the set of all minimal vectors of lattice $\mathbb{A}_n$, and correct them in the last section. This property plays an…

Let G = (V;E) be a simple graph. We consider domination polynomial, matching polynomial and edge cover polynomial of G. Graphs which their polynomials have few roots can give sometimes a very surprising information about the structure of…

In this article we combinatorially describe the triangles that are present in two types of line arrangements, those which have global cyclicity and those which are infinity type line arrangements. A combinatorial nomenclature has been…

We first find the combinatorial degree of any map $f:V\to F$ where $F$ is a finite field and $V$ is a finite-dimensional vector space over $F$. We then simplify and generalize a certain construction due to Chein and Goodaire that was used…

A grid polygon is a polygon whose vertices are points of a grid. We define an injective map between permutations of length n and a subset of grid polygons on n vertices, which we call consecutive-minima polygons. By the kernel method, we…

Boij-S\"oderberg theory gives a combinatorial description of the set of Betti tables belonging to finite length modules over the polynomial ring $S = k[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$. We posit that a similar combinatorial description can be given for…

Representations of vertex operator algebras define sheaves of coinvariants and conformal blocks on moduli of stable pointed curves. Assuming certain finiteness and semisimplicity conditions, we prove that such sheaves satisfy the…

The problem of expressing a specific polynomial as the determinant of a square matrix of affine-linear forms arises from algebraic geometry, optimisation, complexity theory, and scientific computing. Motivated by recent developments in this…

Simplicial arrangements are a special class of hyperplane arrangements, having the property that every chamber is a simplicial cone. It is known that the simpliciality property is preserved under taking restrictions. In this article we…

For a line arrangement in the complex projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2$, we investigate the compactification $\overline{F}$ of the affine Milnor fiber in $\mathbb{P}^3$ and its minimal resolution $\widetilde{F}$. We compute the Chern numbers…

A recently proposed integral representation for permanents is rederived using only elementary combinatorics. For this proof the assumption that the matrix, for which the permanent is calculated, has an inverse is not necessary.

We solve the problem of characterizing the existence of a polynomial matrix of fixed degree when its eigenstructure (or part of it) and some of its rows (columns) are prescribed. More specifically, we present a solution to the row (column)…

Let G be a finite group acting linearly on the polynomial ring with invariant ring R. If the action is small, then a classical result of Auslander gives in dimension two a correspondence between linear representations of G and maximal…

We introduce new polynomial invariants of a finite-dimensional semisimple and cosemisimple Hopf algebra A over a field by using the braiding structures of A. We investigate basic properties of the polynomial invariants including stability…

An algebraic classification is given for spaces of holomorphic vector-valued modular forms of arbitrary real weight and multiplier system, associated to irreducible, T-unitarizable representations of the full modular group, of dimension…

Different (not only by sign) affine connections are introduced for contravariant and covariant tensor fields over a differentiable manifold by means of a non-canonical contraction operator, defining the notion dual bases and commuting with…

We study whether iterated vector fields (vector fields composed with themselves) are conservative. We give explicit examples of vector fields for which this self-composition preserves conservatism. Notably, this includes gradient vector…

A minimal (by inclusion) generating set for the algebra of semi-invariants of a quiver of dimension (2,...,2) is established over an infinite field of arbitrary characteristic. The mentioned generating set consists of the determinants of…

We use the theory of resultants of polynomials to study the stability of an arbitrary polynomial over a finite field, that is, the property of having all its iterates irreducible. This result partially generalises the quadratic polynomial…

The purpose of this paper is to put into a noncommutative context basic notions related to vector fields from classical differential geometry. The manner of exposition is an attempt to make the material as accessible as possible to…
