We compute an asymptotic estimate for odd balanced unimodal sequences for ranks congruent to $a \pmod{c}$ for $c\neq 1$ odd. We find the interesting result that the odd balanced unimodal sequences are asymptotically related to the…

A pseudo-length function defined on an arbitrary group $G = (G,\cdot,e, (\,)^{-1})$ is a map $\ell: G \to [0,+\infty)$ obeying $\ell(e)=0$, the symmetry property $\ell(x^{-1}) = \ell(x)$, and the triangle inequality $\ell(xy) \leqslant…

We study compositions of a positive integer $n$ in which the occurrence of even parts larger than a fixed threshold $k$ is controlled. More precisely, for each composition $m=(m_1,\dots,m_r)$ we consider the number of even parts strictly…

We introduce a new quasi-isometry invariant of 2-dimensional right-angled Coxeter groups, the hypergraph index, that partitions these groups into infinitely many quasi-isometry classes, each containing infinitely many groups. Furthermore,…

Let G be a group generated by $r$ elements $g_1,g_2,..., g_r.$ Among the reduced words in $g_1,g_2,..., g_r$ of length $n$ some, say $\gamma_n,$ represent the identity element of the group $G.$ It has been shown in a combinatorial way that…

Let W be a Coxeter group with Coxeter generators S. The rank of the Coxeter system (W,S) is the cardinality |S| of S. The Coxeter system (W,S) has finite rank if and only if W is finitely generated. If (W,S) has infinite rank, then |S| =…

We study coherence of graph products and Coxeter groups and obtain many results in this direction.

A general setting to study a certain type of formulas, expressing characters of the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$ explicitly in terms of descent sets of combinatorial objects, has been developed by two of the authors. This theory is…

Global permutation patterns have recently been shown to characterize important properties of a Coxeter group. Here we study global patterns in the context of signed permutations, with both characterizing and enumerative results.…

Let W be an irreducible finitely generated Coxeter group. The geometric representation of W in GL(V) provides a discrete embedding in the orthogonal group of the Tits form (the associated bilinear form of the Coxeter group). If the Tits…

We calculate the exact values of the F{\o}lner function $\mathrm{F{\o}l}$ of the lamplighter group $\mathbb{Z}\wr\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ for the standard generating set. More generally, for any finite group $D$ and $n\geq|D|$, we obtain the…

Hypergraphs are structures that can be decomposed or described; in other words they are recursively countable. Here, we get exact and asymptotic enumeration results on hypergraphs by means of exponential generating functions. The number of…

Bounded-cohomological dimension of groups is a relative of classical cohomological dimension, defined in terms of bounded cohomology with trivial coefficients instead of ordinary group cohomology. We will discuss constructions that lead to…

An axiomatic approach to the representation theory of Coxeter groups and their Hecke algebras was presented in [1]. Combinatorial aspects of this construction are studied in this paper. In particular, the symmetric group case is…

The Fibonacci groups $F(n)$ are known to exhibit significantly different behaviour depending on the parity of $n$. We extend known results for $F(n)$ for odd $n$ to the family of Fractional Fibonacci groups $F^{k/l}(n)$. We show that for…

Given any irreducible Coxeter group $C$ of hyperbolic type with non-linear diagram and rank at least $4$, whose maximal parabolic subgroups are finite, we construct an infinite family of locally spherical regular hypertopes of hyperbolic…

We construct a finitely presented group $G$ with non-quadratic Dehn function $f$ majorizable by a quadratic function on arbitrary long intervals.

We define a class of partial orders on a Coxeter group associated with sets of reflections. In special cases, these lie between the left weak order and the Bruhat order. We prove that these posets are graded by the length function and that…

We discuss one construction of nonstandard subgroups in the category of Coxeter groups. Two formulae for the growth series of such a subgroups are given. As an application we construct a flag simple convex polytope, whose f-polynomial has…

After a review of exotic statistics for point particles in 3d BF theory, and especially 3d quantum gravity, we show that string-like defects in 4d BF theory obey exotic statistics governed by the 'loop braid group'. This group has a set of…
