The Loop Vertex Expansion (LVE) is a quantum field theory (QFT) method which explicitly computes the Borel sum of Feynman perturbation series. This LVE relies in a crucial way on symmetric tree weights which define a measure on the set of…

A composition of a nonnegative integer (n) is a sequence of positive integers whose sum is (n). A composition is palindromic if it is unchanged when its terms are read in reverse order. We provide a generating function for the number of…

We construct the ordinary irreducible representations of the group of automorphisms of a finite rooted tree and we get a natural parametrization of them. To achieve this goals, we introduce and study the combinatorics of tree compositions,…

We obtain a bounded generation theorem over $\mathcal O/\mathfrak a$, where $\mathcal O$ is the ring of integers of a number field and $\mathfrak a$ a general ideal of $\mathcal O$. This addresses a conjecture of Salehi-Golsefidy. Along the…

In this work we introduce and study various generalizations of the notion of increasingly labelled trees, where the label of a child node is always larger than the label of its parent node, to multilabelled tree families, where the nodes in…

Given $\pi \in S_n$, let $Z_{n,k}(\pi)=\sum_{1\leq i_1<\dots<i_k\leq n} \mathbf{1}(\{ \pi_{i_1}<\dots<\pi_{i_k}\}$ denote the number of increasing subsequences of length $k$. Consider the "generalized Ulam problem," studying the…

For any integer s >= 0, we derive a combinatorial interpretation for the family of sequences generated by the recursion (parameterized by s) h_s(n) = h_s(n - s - h_s(n - 1)) + h_s(n - 2 - s - h_s(n - 3)), n > s + 3, with the initial…

In this paper, we consider representations of integers as sums of generalized heptagonal numbers with a prescribed number of repeats of each heptagonal number appearing in the sum. In particular, we investigate the classification of such…

Let A be any set of positive integers and n a positive integer. A composition of n with parts in A is an ordered collection of one or more elements in A whose sum is n. We derive generating functions for the number of compositions of n with…

We generalize the concept of ascending and descending runs from permutations to rooted labelled trees and mappings, i.e., functions from the set $\{1, \dots, n\}$ into itself. A combinatorial decomposition of the corresponding functional…

This paper aims to construct a new family of numbers and polynomials which are related to the Bell numbers and polynomials by means of the confluent hypergeometric function. We give various properties of these numbers and polynomials…

Let ${\mathcal{P}_{n}}$ denote the set of positive integers which are prime to $n$. Let $B_{n}$ be the $n$-th Bernoulli number. For any prime $p\ge 5$ and $r\ge 2$, we prove that \begin{equation} \sum\limits_{\begin{smallmatrix}…

We explain how Gaussian integrals over ensemble of complex matrices with source matrices generate Hurwitz numbers of the most general type, namely, Hurwitz numbers with arbitrary orientable or non-orientable base surface and arbitrary…

In modern usage the Bernoulli numbers and Bernoulli polynomials follow Euler's approach and are defined using generating functions. We consider the functional equation $f(x)+x^k=f(x+1)$ and show that a solution can be derived from…

We study a secondary construction of Boolean functions, which generalizes the direct sum and the indirect sum. We detail how these two classic secondary constructions are particular cases of this more general one, as well as two known…

In this paper we present a simple method for deriving recurrence relations and we apply it to obtain two equations involving the Lerch Phi function and sums of Bernoulli and Euler polynomials. Connections between these results and those…

In this paper we deal with the generalized Gamma processes and their compositions. For the compositions of two or more than two generalized Gamma processes we give, when possible, the explicit law whereas, in the other cases the…

Consider the generalized iterated wreath product $\mathbb{Z}_{r_1}\wr \mathbb{Z}_{r_2}\wr \ldots \wr \mathbb{Z}_{r_k}$ where $r_i \in \mathbb{N}$. We prove that the irreducible representations for this class of groups are indexed by a…

In this paper we study substitutions and some of their associated generating functions. This association takes aperiodicity to transcendence, and vice-versa. These generating functions have a recursive structure arising from the…

A new synthesis scheme is proposed to effectively generate a random vector with prescribed joint density that induces a (latent) Gaussian tree structure. The quality of synthesis is measured by total variation distance between the…
