We consider an expansion of Presburger arithmetic which allows multiplication by $k$ parameters $t_1,\ldots,t_k$. A formula in this language defines a parametric set $S_\mathbf{t} \subseteq \mathbb{Z}^{d}$ as $\mathbf{t}$ varies in…

A function g, with domain the natural numbers, is a quasi-polynomial if there exists a period m and polynomials p_0,p_1,...,p_{m-1} such that g(t)=p_i(t) for t=i mod m. Quasi-polynomials classically -- and "reasonably" -- appear in Ehrhart…

Let $f_1(n), \ldots, f_k(n)$ be polynomial functions of $n$. For fixed $n\in\mathbb{N}$, let $S_n\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ be the numerical semigroup generated by $f_1(n),\ldots,f_k(n)$. As $n$ varies, we show that many invariants of $S_n$ are…

Piecewise quasipolynomial growth of Presburger counting functions combines with tame persistent homology module theory to conclude piecewise quasipolynomial behavior of constructible families of finely graded modules over constructible…

Presburger arithmetic is the first-order theory of the natural numbers with addition (but no multiplication). We characterize sets that can be defined by a Presburger formula as exactly the sets whose characteristic functions can be…

We generalize Cooper's method of quantifier elimination for classical Presburger arithmetic to give a new proof that all parametric Presburger families (as defined by Kevin Woods) are definable by formulas with polynomially bounded…

A numerical semigroup is an additive subsemigroup of the non-negative integers. In this paper, we consider parametrized families of numerical semigroups of the form $P_n = \langle f_1(n), \ldots, f_k(n) \rangle$ for polynomial functions…

A wide variety of problems in combinatorics and discrete optimization depend on counting the set $S$ of integer points in a polytope, or in some more general object constructed via discrete geometry and first-order logic. We take a tour…

We give a quantifier elimination procedure for one-parametric Presburger arithmetic, the extension of Presburger arithmetic with the function $x \mapsto t \cdot x$, where $t$ is a fixed free variable ranging over the integers. This resolves…

In [arXiv 0811.3913] the authors introduced the notion of quasi-polynomial function as being a mapping f: X^n -> X defined and valued on a bounded chain X and which can be factorized as f(x_1,...,x_n)=p(phi(x_1),...,phi(x_n)), where p is a…

Let $d>m>1$ be integers, let $c_1,\dots, c_{m+1}$ be distinct complex numbers, and let $\mathbf{f}(z):=z^d+t_1z^{m-1}+t_2z^{m-2}+\cdots + t_{m-1}z+t_m$ be an $m$-parameter family of polynomials. We prove that the set of $m$-tuples of…

We consider a family of integer linear programs in which the coefficients of the constraints and objective function are polynomials of an integer parameter $t.$ For $\ell$ in $\mathbb{Z}_+,$ we define $f_\ell(t)$ to be the…

A common tool in the theory of numerical semigroups is to interpret a desired class of semigroups as the integer lattice points in a rational polyhedron in order to leverage computational and enumerative techniques from polyhedral geometry.…

A numerical semigroup $S$ is a subset of the non-negative integers containing $0$ that is closed under addition. The Hilbert series of $S$ (a formal power series equal to the sum of terms $t^n$ over all $n \in S$) can be expressed as a…

We compute the special values of partial zeta function at $s=0$ for family of real quadratic fields $K_n$ and ray class ideals $\fb_n$ such that $\fb_n^{-1} = [1,\delta(n)]$ where the continued fraction expansion of $\delta(n)$ is purely…

For a polynomial f: {-1, 1}^n --> C, we define the partition function as the average of e^{lambda f(x)} over all points x in {-1, 1}^n, where lambda in C is a parameter. We present a quasi-polynomial algorithm, which, given such f, lambda…

Consider a semi-algebraic set A in R^d constructed from the sets which are determined by inequalities p_i(x)>0, p_i(x)\ge 0, or p_i(x)=0 for a given list of polynomials p_1,...,p_m. We prove several statements that fit into the following…

We consider expansions of Presburger arithmetic with families of monadic polynomial predicates. (Examples of such predicates are the set of perfect squares, or the set of integers of the form $2n^3-5n+3$, etc.) Although the full attendant…

We introduce an explicit family of representations of the double affine Hecke algebra $\mathbb{H}$ acting on spaces of quasi-polynomials, defined in terms of truncated Demazure-Lusztig type operators. We show that these quasi-polynomial…

The aim of this work is to extend the study of super-coinvariant polynomials, to the case of the generalized symmetric group $G_{n,m}$, defined as the wreath product $C_m\wr\S_n$ of the symmetric group by the cyclic group. We define a…
