A "truncation" of Pascal's triangle is a triangular array of numbers that satisfies the usual Pascal recurrence but with a boundary condition that declares some terminal set of numbers along each row of the array to be zero. Presented here…
In this expository note we present simple proofs of the lower bound of Ramsey numbers (Erd\"os theorem), and of the estimation of discrepancy. Neither statements nor proofs require any knowledge beyond high-school curriculum (except a minor…
Recent works of Andrews--Newman and Hopkins--Sellers unveil an interesting relation between two partition statistics, the crank and the mex. They state that, for a positive integer $n$, there are as many partitions of $n$ with non-negative…
In 1882 J.J. Sylvester already proved, that the number of different ways to partition a positive integer into consecutive positive integers exactly equals the number of odd divisors of that integer (see [1]). We will now develop an…
This note contains additions to the paper 'Clustered cell decomposition in P-minimal structures' (arXiv:1612.02683). We discuss a question which was raised in that paper, on the order of clustered cells. We also consider a notion of cells…
In this note we conjecture Rogers-Ramanujan type colored partition identities for an array with odd number of rows w such that the first and the last row consist of even positive integers. In a strange way this is different from the…
Refined versions, analytic and combinatorial, are given for classical integer partition theorems. The examples include the Rogers-Ramanujan identities, the Gollnitz-Gordon identities, Euler's odd=distinct theorem, and the Andrews-Gordon…
In the present work, we investigate real numbers whose sequence of partial quotients enjoys some combinatorial properties involving the notion of palindrome. We provide three new transendence criteria, that apply to a broad class of…
The main result of this paper is a bijective proof showing that the generating function for partitions with bounded differences between largest and smallest part is a rational function. This result is similar to the closely related case of…
Let $p_2(n)$ denote the number of cubic partitions. In this paper, we shall present two new congruences modulo $11$ for $p_2(n)$. We also provide an elementary alternative proof of a congruence established by Chan. Furthermore, we will…
In the paper we complete a case by case proof of Reeder's Conjecture started in our previous work, proving the conjecture for simple Lie algebras of type $D$ and for the exceptional cases.
Let $\mathrm{pod}_{-3}(n)$ denote the number of partition triples of $n$ where the odd parts in each partition are distinct. We find many arithmetic properties of $\mathrm{pod}_{-3}(n)$ involving the following infinite family of…
It is proved that the number of partitions of n with odd mex and k parts that aren't ones equals the number of partitions of n with nonnegative crank and k parts that aren't ones..
We establish a new simple explicit description of combinatorial wall-crossing for the rational Cherednik algebra applied to the trivial representation. In this way we recover a theorem of P. Dimakis and G. Yue. We also present two…
This note presents a unified theorem of the alternative that explicitly allows for any combination of equality, componentwise inequality, weak dominance, strict dominance, and nonnegativity relations. The theorem nests 60 special cases,…
We offer streamlined proofs of fundamental theorems regarding the index theory for partial self-maps of an infinite set that are bijective between cofinite subsets.
We give an alternative proof of the striking new Tverberg type theorem of Blagojevic and Ziegler, arXiv:0910.4987v1 [math.CO]. Our method also yields some new cases of "constrained Tverberg thereom" in the sense of Hell, including a simple…
Let $m$ be a positive integer and $D_m(\mathcal {A})$ be the $m$-periodic derived category of a finitary hereditary abelian category $\mathcal {A}$. Applying the derived Hall numbers of the bounded derived category $D^b(\mathcal {A})$, we…
In this paper, we confirm a conjecture of Laborde-Zubieta on the enumeration of corners in tree-like tableaux. Our proof is based on Aval, Boussicault and Nadeau's bijection between tree-like tableaux and permutation tableaux, and Corteel…
In this paper, we obtain several new factorization results for certain classes of polynomials having integer coefficients. In doing so, we use the information about prime factorization of the value taken up by such polynomials and their…
