An improved characteristic set algorithm for solving Boolean polynomial systems is proposed. This algorithm is based on the idea of converting all the polynomials into monic ones by zero decomposition, and using additions to obtain…

Let G be a finite p-group, for some prime p, and $\psi, \theta \in \Irr(G)$ be irreducible complex characters of G. It has been proved that if, in addition, $\psi,\theta$ are faithful characters, then the product $\psi\theta$ is a multiple…

The set of indices that correspond to the positive entries of a sequence of numbers is called its positivity set. In this paper, we study the density of the positivity set of a given linear recurrence sequence, that is the question of how…

There has been a growing interest in using AI to model human behavior, particularly in domains where humans interact with this technology. While most existing work models human behavior at an aggregate level, our goal is to model behavior…

The theory of almost characters which is closely related to character sheaves is proposed by Lusztig to study the representation theory of finite reductive groups. In this article we show that the decomposition of the Weil character for…

We study the properties of the uncountable set of Stewart words. These are Toeplitz words specified by infinite sequences of Toeplitz patterns of the form $\alpha\beta\gamma$, where $\alpha,\beta,\gamma$ is any permutation of the symbols…

The aim of this paper is to develop greedy algorithms which generate uniformly distributed sequences in the $d$-dimensional unit cube $[0,1]^d$. The figures of merit are three different variants of $L_2$ discrepancy. Theoretical results…

We introduce a class of convolutions on arithmetical functions that are regular in the sense of of Narkiewicz, homogeneous in the sense of Burnett et al, and bounded, in the sense that there exists a common finite bound for the rank of…

Consider words of length $n$. The set of all periods of a word of length $n$ is a subset of $\{0,1,2,\ldots,n-1\}$. However, any subset of $\{0,1,2,\ldots,n-1\}$ is not necessarily a valid set of periods. In a seminal paper in 1981, Guibas…

We obtain nontrivial estimates of quadratic character sums of division polynomials $\Psi_n(P)$, $n=1,2, ...$, evaluated at a given point $P$ on an elliptic curve over a finite field of $q$ elements. Our bounds are nontrivial if the order of…

We investigate combinatorial properties of a kind of insets we defined in an earlier paper, interpreting them now in terms of restricted ternary words. This allows us to give new combinatorial interpretations of a number of known integer…

Recent progress has been made on developing a unified framework for joint text detection and recognition in natural images, but existing joint models were mostly built on two-stage framework by involving ROI pooling, which can degrade the…

The flourishing blossom of deep learning has witnessed the rapid development of Chinese character recognition. However, it remains a great challenge that the characters for testing may have different distributions from those of the training…

Let $k\ge 2$. We prove that the characteristic sequence of a regular language over a $k$-letter alphabet is $k$-automatic. More generally, if $t\ge 2$ and $t,k$ are multiplicatively dependent, we show that the characteristic sequence of a…

We describe the conditions under which a set of continuous variables or characters can be described as an X-tree or a split network. A distance matrix corresponds exactly to a split network or a valued X-tree if, after ordering of the taxa,…

We define an algorithm which begins with an sequence of sequences, and produces a single sequence, with following property: If at least one of the original sequences has a tail that is periodic, then the output sequence has a periodic tail,…

A character of a group is said to be super-monomial if every primitive character inducing it is linear. It is conjectured by Isaacs that every irreducible character of an odd $M$-group is super-monomial. We show that all non linear…

We study the combinatorial structure of the irreducible characters of the classical groups ${\rm GL}_n(\mathbb{C})$, ${\rm SO}_{2n+1}(\mathbb{C})$, ${\rm Sp}_{2n}(\mathbb{C})$, ${\rm SO}_{2n}(\mathbb{C})$ and the "non-classical" odd…

Let n be an integer, and consider finite sequences of elements of the group Z/nZ x Z/nZ. Such a sequence is called zero-sum free, if no subsequence has sum zero. It is known that the maximal length of such a zero-sum free sequence is 2n-2,…

The present work deals with the characterization of parity vectors of Collatz sequences (of finite and infinite length). Such a characterization leads to the determination of several numbers (integers or non-integers) that we call the…
