In this work we show how to get advantage from the Riemann--Hilbert analysis in order to obtain information about the matrix orthogonal polynomials and functions of second kind associated with a weight matrix. We deduce properties for the…
Recently there has been a renewed interest in an extension of the notion of orthogonal polynomials known as multiple orthogonal polynomials. This notion comes from simultaneous rational approximation (Hermite-Pade approximation) of a system…
We introduce a class of orthogonal polynomials in two variables which generalizes the disc polynomials and the 2-$D$ Hermite polynomials. We identify certain interesting members of this class including a one variable generalization of the…
We make a broad conjecture about the $k$-Schur positivity of Catalan functions, symmetric functions which generalize the (parabolic) Hall-Littlewood polynomials. We resolve the conjecture with positive combinatorial formulas in cases which…
In this paper, firstly, by a determinant of deformed Pascal's triangle, namely the normalized Hessenberg matrix determinant, to count Dyck paths, we give another combinatorial proof of the theorems which are of Catalan numbers determinant…
The paper proves sum-of-square-of-rational-function based representations (shortly, sosrf-based representations) of polynomial matrices that are positive semidefinite on some special sets: $\mathbb{R}^n;$ $\mathbb{R}$ and its intervals…
We introduce a new generalization of Stirling numbers of the second kind and analyze their properties, including generating functions, integral representations, and recurrence relations. These numbers are used to approximate Riemann zeta…
In this paper, we provide an overview of Ehrhart polynomials associated with order polytopes of finite posets, a concept first introduced by Stanley. We focus on their combinatorial interpretations for many sequences listed on the OEIS. We…
We introduce a new family of operators as multi-parameter deformation of the one-row Macdonald polynomials. The matrix coefficients of these operators acting on the space of symmetric functions with rational coefficients in two parameters…
After a short survey about Schroeder numbers and some generalizations which I call Schroeder-like numbers I study some q-analogues which have simple Hankel determinants.
The \emph{$q,t$-Catalan numbers} $C_n(q,t)$ are polynomials in $q$ and $t$ that reduce to the ordinary Catalan numbers when $q=t=1$. These polynomials have important connections to representation theory, algebraic geometry, and symmetric…
We investigate the existence and the orthogonality of the generalized Jack symmetric functions which play an important role in the AGT relations. We show their orthogonality by deforming them to the generalized Macdonald symmetric…
In this work we prove a prime number type theorem involving the normalised Fourier coefficients of holomorphic and Maass cusp forms, using the classical circle method. A key point is in a recent paper of Fouvry and Ganguly, based on…
Stanley's theory of $(P,\omega)$-partitions is a standard tool in combinatorics. It can be extended to allow for the presence of a restriction, that is a given maximal value for partitions at each vertex of the poset, as was shown by Assaf…
Using the methodology of (rigorous) {\it experimental mathematics}, we give a simple and motivated solution to Zudilin's question concerning a $q$-analog of a problem posed by Asmus Schmidt about a certain binomial coefficients sum. Our…
We prove that for |x|,|t|<1, -1 <q \leq1 and n\geq0: \Sigma_{i\geq0}((t^{i})/((q)_{i}))h_{n+i}(x|q) = h_{n}(x|t,q) \Sigma_{i\geq0}((t^{i})/((q)_{i}))h_{i}(x|q), where h_{n}(x|q) and h_{n}(x|t,q) are respectively the so called q-Hermite and…
An approach, based on the Smith Normal Form, is introduced to study the spectra of symmetric matrices with a given graph. The approach serves well to explain how the path cover number (resp. diameter of a tree T) is related to the maximum…
We give an account of well known calculations of the RO(Q)-graded coefficient rings of some of the most basic Q-equivariant cohomology theories, where Q is a group of order 2. One purpose is to advertise the effectiveness of the Tate…
A general method based on the polynomial deformations of the Lie algebra sl(2,R) is proposed in order to exhibit the quasi-exactly solvability of specific Hamiltonians implied by quantum physical models. This method using the…
