For a partition $\nu$, let $\lambda,\mu\subseteq \nu$ be two distinct partitions such that $|\nu/\lambda|=|\nu/\mu|=1$. Butler conjectured that the divided difference…
We present counterexamples to a 30-year-old conjecture of Las Vergnas [J. Combin. Theory Ser. B, 1988] regarding the Tutte polynomial of binary matroids.
We find a graph of genus $5$ and its drawing on the orientable surface of genus $4$ with every pair of independent edges crossing an even number of times. This shows that the strong Hanani-Tutte theorem cannot be extended to the orientable…
It was shown by A. Connes, M. Douglas and A. Schwarz that noncommutative tori arise naturally in consideration of toroidal compactifications of M(atrix) theory. A similar analysis of toroidal Z_{2} orbifolds leads to the algebra B_{\theta}…
We study asymptotics of the dimer model on large toric graphs. Let $\mathbb L$ be a weighted $\mathbb{Z}^2$-periodic planar graph, and let $\mathbb{Z}^2 E$ be a large-index sublattice of $\mathbb{Z}^2$. For $\mathbb L$ bipartite we show…
Consider the expansion $T_S$ of a theory $T$ by a predicate for a submodel of a reduct $T_0$ of $T$. We present a setup in which this expansion admits a model companion $TS$. We show that the nice features of the theory $T$ transfer to…
Recently, a two-matrix-model with a new type of interaction [1] has been introduced and analyzed using bi-orthogonal polynomial techniques. Here we present the complete 1/N^2 expansion for the formal version of this model, following the…
We extend the recently introduced setting of coherent differentiation for taking into account not only differentiation, but also Taylor expansion in categories which are not necessarily (left)additive. The main idea consists in extending…
In this paper we conjecture a reformulation of the monomial-divisor mirror map for (2,2) mirror symmetry, valid at a boundary of the moduli space, that is easily extended to also include tangent bundle deformations -- an important step…
It is well known that the Taylor series expansion of $(1+ z)^{A}$ does not converge for $|z|>1$ where A is a real number which is not equal to zero or a positive integer. A limited series expansion of this expression is obtained in this…
The time development of a model of (2+1)-dimensional torus universe is studied based on background field equations which follow from a string theory. The metrics in various cases are characterized by a real parameter which specifies a ratio…
The differential $\lambda$-calculus studies how the quantitative aspects of programs correspond to differentiation and to Taylor expansion inside models of linear logic. Recent work has generalized the axioms of Taylor expansion so they…
We study maps on the torus $\mathbb{T}^2$ that are of the form $F(x,y) = (bx, f_x(y))$, where $b\geq 2$ is an integer. We establish an open class of $C^1$-maps, with $f_x(y)$ that are typically non-monotonic in $x$, for which the Lyapunov…
Expressions involving the product of the permanent with the (n-1)th power of the determinant of a matrix of indeterminates, and of (0,1)-matrices, are shown to be related to two conjectures that extend the Alon-Tarsi Latin square conjecture…
A conjecture of May states that there is an up-to-adjunction strictification of symmetric bimonoidal functors between bipermutative categories. The main result of this paper proves a weaker form of May's conjecture that starts with…
It was conjectured that the augmentation ideal of a dihedral quandle of even order $n>2$ satisfies $|\Delta^k(\text{R}_n)/\Delta^{k+1}(\text{R}_{n})|=n$ for all $k\geq 2$. In this article we provide a counterexample against this conjecture.
We generalize the dual notions of "expansion" and "collapse" so they can be applied to arbitrary metric spaces. We also expand the theory to allow for infinitely many such moves. Those tools are then employed to prove a variety of…
Some properties of the relation between the singular point set and the non-proper value curve of polynomial maps of $\mathbb{C}^2$ are expressed in terms of Newton-Puiseux expansions.
The quadratic term in the Taylor expansion at the origin of the backscattering transformation in odd dimensions $n\ge 3$ gives rise to a symmetric bilinear operator $B_2$ on $C_0^\infty({\mathbb R}^n)\times C_0^\infty({\mathbb R}^n)$. In…
We establish some asymptotic expansions for infinite weighted convolutions of distributions having light subexponential tails. Examples are presented, some showing that in order to obtain an expansion with two significant terms, one needs…
