Gamma-positivity is an elementary property that polynomials with symmetric coefficients may have, which directly implies their unimodality. The idea behind it stems from work of Foata, Sch\"utzenberger and Strehl on the Eulerian…

Two linear recurrences exhibit mirror symmetry connecting the constants $e$ and $\pi$. When parametrized, their asymptotic connection constants extend to meromorphic functions satisfying additive functional equations with rational…

To each algebra over the complex numbers we associate a sequence of abelian groups in a contravariant functorial way. In degree (m-1) we have the m-summable Fredholm modules over the algebra modulo stable m-summable perturbations. These new…

A generalized modular relation of the form $F(z, w, \alpha)=F(z, iw,\beta)$, where $\alpha\beta=1$ and $i=\sqrt{-1}$, is obtained in the course of evaluating an integral involving the Riemann $\Xi$-function. It is a two-variable…

It has recently been observed by Zuiddam that finite graphs form a preordered commutative semiring under the graph homomorphism preorder together with join and disjunctive product as addition and multiplication, respectively. This led to a…

For any connected complex reductive group $G$ and element $z$ of its Weyl group $W$, we use work of Lusztig and Abreu-Nigro to compute the graded $W$-character of the intersection cohomology of any closed Lusztig variety for $z$ over the…

Let $\Gamma$ denote a distance-regular graph with diameter $D \ge 3$. Assume $\Gamma$ has classical parameters $(D,b,\alpha,\beta)$ with $b < -1$. Let $X$ denote the vertex set of $\Gamma$ and let $A \in MX$ denote the adjacency matrix of…

A function $\mathfrak{F}$ with simple and nice algebraic properties is defined on a subset of the space of complex sequences. Some special functions are expressible in terms of $\mathfrak{F}$, first of all the Bessel functions of first…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive $p$-adic group and let $\theta$ be an automorphism of $G$ of order at most two. Suppose $\pi$ is an irreducible smooth representation of $G$ that is taken to its dual by $\theta$. The space $V$ of $\pi$ then…

Let $A$ be a unital simple $A\T$-algebra of real rank zero. Given an isomorphism $\gamma_1: K_1(A)\to K_1(A),$ we show that there is an automorphism $\af: A\to A$ such that $\af_{*1}=\gamma_1$ which has the tracial Rokhlin property.…

Let $\Theta(G)$ denote the Shannon capacity of a graph $G$. We give an elementary proof of the equivalence, for any graphs $G$ and $H$, of the inequalities $\Theta(G\sqcup H)>\Theta(G)+\Theta(H)$ and $\Theta(G\boxtimes…

We mainly establish a monotonicity property between some special Riemann sums of a convex function $f$ on $[a,b]$, which in particular yields that $\frac{b-a}{n+1}\sum_{i=0}^n f\left(a+i\frac{b-a}{n}\right)$ is decreasing while…

Modular operads are a special type of operad: in fact, they bear the same relationship to operads that graphs do to trees (i.e. simply connected graphs). One of the basic examples of a modular operad is the collection of…

Given C*-algebras A and B and an imprimitivity A-B-bimodule X, we construct an explicit isomorphism X_* : K_i(A) --> K_i(B) where K_i denote the complex K-theory functors for i=0, 1. Our techniques do not require separability nor existence…

We derive Fredholm determinant representation for isomonodromic tau functions of Fuchsian systems with $n$ regular singular points on the Riemann sphere and generic monodromy in $\mathrm{GL}(N,\mathbb C)$. The corresponding operator acts in…

Toral automorphisms, represented by unimodular integer matrices, are investigated with respect to their symmetries and reversing symmetries. We characterize the symmetry groups of GL(n,Z) matrices with simple spectrum through their…

\"Uberhomology is a recently defined homology theory for simplicial complexes, which yields subtle information on graphs. We prove that bold homology, a certain specialisation of \"uberhomology, is related to dominating sets in graphs. To…

We develop a complete Fredholm and invertibility theory for Toeplitz+Hankel operators $T(a)+H(b)$ on the Hardy space $H^p$, $1<p<\infty$, with piecewise continuous functions $a,b$ defined on the unit circle which are subject to the…

We generalize the celebrated Fr\"{o}berg's theorem to embedded joins of copies of a simplicial complex, namely higher secant complexes to the simplicial complex, in terms of property $N_{q+1,p}$ due to Green and Lazarsfeld. Furthermore, we…

It was proved by Akemann, Ipsen and Kieburg that squared singular values of products of $M$ complex Ginibre random matrices form a determinantal point process whose correlation kernel is expressible in terms of Meijer's $G$-functions.…
