In this paper we present a combinatorial proof of the Kronecker--Weber Theorem for global fields of positive characteristic. The main tools are the use of Witt vectors and their arithmetic developed by H. L. Schmid. The key result is to…

One of the crown jewels of complexity theory is Valiant's 1979 theorem that computing the permanent of an n*n matrix is #P-hard. Here we show that, by using the model of linear-optical quantum computing---and in particular, a universality…

We show that the problem of deciding membership in the moment polytope associated with a finite-dimensional unitary representation of a compact, connected Lie group is in NP and coNP. This is the first non-trivial result on the…

We resolve three interrelated problems on \emph{reduced Kronecker coefficients} $\overline{g}(\alpha,\beta,\gamma)$. First, we disprove the \emph{saturation property} which states that $\overline{g}(N\alpha,N\beta,N\gamma)>0$ implies…
