We settle a conjecture of B\'ona regarding the log-concavity of a certain statistic on parking functions by utilizing recent log-concavity results on matroids. This result allows us to also prove that connected, labeled graphs graded by…
Let $X/\mathbb{F}_{q}$ be a smooth geometrically connected variety. Inspired by work of Corlette-Simpson over $\mathbb{C}$, we formulate a conjecture that absolutely irreducible rank 2 local systems with infinite monodromy on $X$ come from…
Parking functions are a widely studied class of combinatorial objects, with connections to several branches of mathematics. On the algebraic side, parking functions can be identified with the standard monomials of $M_n$, a certain monomial…
We show that there exists a family of irreducible representations R_i (of finite groups G_i) such that, for any constant t, the average of R_i over t uniformly random elements g_1, ..., g_t of G_i has operator norm 1 with probability…
Let W be a Coxeter group and L be a weight function on W. Following Lusztig, we have a corresponding decomposition of W into left cells, which have important applications in representation theory. We study the case where $W$ is an affine…
Kreweras proved that the reversed sum enumerator for parking functions of length $n$ is equal to the inversion enumerator for labeled trees on $n+1$ vertices. Recently, Perkinson, Yang, and Yu gave a bijective proof of this equality that…
We compare two methods of proving separable reduction theorems in functional analysis -- the method of rich families and the method of elementary submodels. We show that any result proved using rich families holds also when formulated with…
We resolve affirmatively some conjectures of Reiner, Stanton, and White \cite{ReinerComm} regarding enumeration of transportation matrices which are invariant under certain cyclic row and column rotations. Our results are phrased in terms…
Let R be an associative ring with identity. We establish that the generalized Auslander-Reiten conjecture implies the Wakamatsu tilting conjecture. Furthermore, we prove that any Wakamatsu tilting R-module of finite projective dimension…
Let W be an Iwahori-Weyl group of a connected reductive group G over a non-archimedean local field. I prove that if w is an element of W that does not act on the corresponding apartment of G by a translation then one can apply to w a…
Given an irreducible well-generated complex reflection group W with Coxeter number h, we call a Coxeter element any regular element (in the sense of Springer) of order h in W; this is a slight extension of the most common notion of Coxeter…
We investigate an analogue of the irreducible convex paving in the context of generalised convexity. Consider two Radon probability measures $\mu,\nu$ ordered with respect to a cone $\mathcal{F}$ of functions on $\Omega$ stable under…
Recently, the first two authors proved the Alon-Jaeger-Tarsi conjecture on non-vanishing linear maps, for large primes. We extend their ideas to address several other related conjectures. We prove the weak Additive Basis conjecture proposed…
Let $W\subset GL(V)$ be a complex reflection group, and ${\mathscr A}(W)$ the set of the mirrors of the complex reflections in $W$. It is known that the complement $X({\mathscr A}(W))$ of the reflection arrangement ${\mathscr A}(W)$ is a…
We show that for various natural classes of groups and appropriately defined K- and L-theoretic functors, injectivity or bijectivity of the assembly map follows from the Isomorphism Conjecture being true for acyclic groups lying within that…
Let $(W,S)$ be any Coxeter system and let $w \mapsto w^*$ be an involution of $W$ which preserves the set of simple generators $S$. Lusztig and Vogan have shown that the corresponding set of twisted involutions (i.e., elements $w \in W$…
This paper presents a natural generalisation of Saxl conjecture from a Lie-theoretical perspective, which is verified for the exceptional types. For classical types, progress is made using spin representations, revealing connections to…
We prove triviality of the centre of arbitrary Hecke algebras of irreducible non-finite non-affine type. This result is obtained as a consequence of the following structure result for conjugacy classes of the underlying Coxeter groups. If…
We use geometry of Davis complex of a Coxeter group to prove the following result: if G is an infinite indecomposable Coxeter group and $H\subset G$ is a finite index reflection subgroup then the rank of H is not less than the rank of G.…
In this article, we investigate the existence of joins in the weak order of an infinite Coxeter group W. We give a geometric characterization of the existence of a join for a subset X in W in terms of the inversion sets of its elements and…
