This paper serves as an introduction to banded totally positive matrices, exploring various characterizations and associated properties. A significant result within is the demonstration that the collection of such matrices forms a…
We prove an explicit formula for the Poincar\'e polynomials of parabolic character varieties of Riemann surfaces with semisimple local monodromies, which was conjectured by Hausel, Letellier and Rodriguez-Villegas. Using an approach of…
We show that the infinite symmetric product of a connected graded-commutative algebra over the rationals is naturally isomorphic to the free graded-commutative algebra on the positive degree subspace of the original algebra. In particular,…
We review a recent construction of an explicit analytic series representation for symmetric polynomials which up to a groundstate factor are eigenfunctions of Calogero-Sutherland type models. We also indicate a generalisation of this result…
We discuss the problem of factorisation of the symmetric Macdonald polynomials and present the obtained results for the cases of 2 and 3 variables.
We introduce and study symmetric polynomials, which as very special cases include polynomials related to the supersymmetric eight-vertex model, and other elliptic lattice models with $\Delta=\pm 1/2$. There is also a close relation to…
We consider a finite family of invertible $2 \times 2$ real matrices and a transitive Markov shift on the index set. Let $\lambda$ be the top Lyapunov exponent for random matrix products driven by the Markov shift. We prove that, if the…
We prove a generalisation to any characteristic of a result of Macdonald that describes strict polynomial functors in characteristic zero in terms of representations of the groupoid of finite sets and bijections. Our result will give an…
We show that the action of classical operators associated to the Macdonald polynomials on the basis of Schur functions, S_{\lambda}[X(t-1)/(q-1)], can be reduced to addition in \lambda-rings. This provides explicit formulas for the…
Macdonald processes are probability measures on sequences of partitions defined in terms of nonnegative specializations of the Macdonald symmetric functions and two Macdonald parameters q,t in [0,1). We prove several results about these…
The Macdonald symmetric functions are used to define measures on the set of all partitions of all integers. Probabilistic algorithms are given for growing partitions according to these measures. The case of Hall-Littlewood polynomials is…
The super-Macdonald polynomials, introduced by Sergeev and Veselov, generalise the Macdonald polynomials to (arbitrary numbers of) two kinds of variables, and they are eigenfunctions of the deformed Macdonald-Ruijsenaars operators…
Any homogeneous polynomial $P(x, y, z)$ of degree $d$, being restricted to a unit sphere $S^2$, admits essentially a unique representation of the form $\lambda + \sum_{k = 1}^d [\prod_{j = 1}^k L_{kj}]$, where $L_{kj}$'s are linear forms in…
We give new characterizations of the algebra $\mathscr{L}_n(\mathbb{F}_{q^n})$ formed by all linearized polynomials over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ after briefly surveying some known ones. One isomorphism we construct is between…
This paper presents new probability inequalities for sums of independent, random, self-adjoint matrices. These results place simple and easily verifiable hypotheses on the summands, and they deliver strong conclusions about the…
We introduce explicit combinatorial interpretations for the coefficients in some of the transition matrices relating to skew Hall-Littlewood polynomials P_lambda/mu(x;t) and Hivert's quasisymmetric Hall-Littlewood polynomials G_gamma(x;t).…
We discuss a product formula for $F$-polynomials in cluster algebras, and provide two proofs. One proof is inductive and uses only the mutation rule for $F$-polynomials. The other is based on the Fock-Goncharov decomposition of mutations.…
Let $A$ be a unital locally matrix algebra. Among the examples of such algebras are: (1) an infinite tensor product $\otimes M_{n_i}(\mathbb{F})$ of matrix algebras over a field $\mathbb{F}$, and (2) the Clifford algebra of a nondegenerate…
The solid-angle sum $A_{\mathcal{P}} (t)$ of a rational polytope ${\mathcal{P}} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, with $t \in \mathbb{Z}$ was first investigated by I.G. Macdonald. Using our Fourier-analytic methods, we are able to establish an…
We construct a new family of graded representations $\widetilde{W}_{\lambda}$ indexed by Young diagrams $\lambda$ for the positive elliptic Hall algebra $\mathcal{E}^{+}$ which generalizes the standard $\mathcal{E}^{+}$ action on symmetric…
