In this paper, we study various factorization invariants of arithmetical congruence monoids. The invariants we investigate are the catenary degree, a measure of the maximum distance between any two factorizations of the same element, the…
Lascoux stated that the type A Kostka-Foulkes polynomials K_{lambda,mu}(t) expand positively in terms of so-called atomic polynomials. For any semisimple Lie algebra, the former polynomial is a t-analogue of the multiplicity of the dominant…
We introduce a novel concept of rank for subsets of finite metric spaces E^n_q (the set of all n-dimensional vectors over an alphabet of size q) equipped with the Hamming distance, where the rank R(A) of a subset A is defined as the number…
Orders in algebraic number fields have long been objects of central interest in algebraic number theory. Despite non-maximal orders failing to be Dedekind, the present authors have previously shown that the structure of the ideal class…
This paper presents a powerfull method to integrate general monomials on the classical groups with respect to their invariant (Haar) measure. The method has first been applied to the orthogonal group in [J. Math. Phys. 43, 3342 (2002)], and…
Let D be a Krull domain and Int(D) the ring of integer-valued polynomials on D. For any f in Int(D), we explicitly construct a divisor homomorphism from [f], the divisor-closed submonoid of Int(D) generated by f, to a finite sum of copies…
The extended Hubbard Hamiltonian is a widely accepted model for uncovering the effects of strong correlations on the phase diagram of low-dimensional systems, and a variety of theoretical techniques have been applied to it. In this paper…
We analyse a new notion of total anisotropic higher-order variation which, differently from the Total Generalized Variation by Bredies et al., quantifies for possibly non-symmetric tensor fields their variations at arbitrary order weighted…
We define a new statistic on Weyl groups called the atomic length and investigate its combinatorial and representation-theoretic properties. In finite types, we show a number of properties of the atomic length which are reminiscent of the…
We present a numerical framework for modeling extended hyperelastic bodies based on a Lagrangian formulation of general relativistic elasticity theory. We use finite element methods to discretize the body, then use the semi--discrete action…
We build a bridge from density combinatorics to dimension theory of continued fractions. We establish a fractal transference principle that transfers common properties of subsets of $\mathbb N$ with positive upper density to properties of…
Let $A\subset B$ be an integral ring extension of integral domains with fields of fractions $K$ and $L$, respectively. The integral degree of $A\subset B$, denoted by ${\rm d}_A(B)$, is defined as the supremum of the degrees of minimal…
Every symbolic system supports a Borel measure that is invariant under the shift, but it is not known if every such systems supports a measure that is invariant under all of its automorphisms; known as a characteristic measure. We give…
If ${\cal D}$ is a definable category then it may contain no nonzero finitely presented modules but, by a result of Makkai, there is a $\varinjlim$-generating set of strictly ${\cal D}$-atomic modules. These modules share some key…
Abstract upper densities are monotone and subadditive functions from the power set of positive integers to the unit real interval that generalize the upper densities used in number theory, including the upper asymptotic density, the upper…
The Hohenberg-Kohn (HK) theorem -- the bedrock of density functional theory (DFT) -- establishes a universal map from the external potential to the energy. It also relates the electron density and atomic forces to the variation of the…
Commutative totally ordered monoids abound, number systems for example. When the monoid is not assumed commutative, one may be hard pressed to find an example. One suggested by Professor Orr Shalit are the countable ordinals with addition.…
We obtain sharp estimates on the growth rate of stable commutator length on random (geodesic) words, and on random walks, in hyperbolic groups and groups acting nondegenerately on hyperbolic spaces. In either case, we show that with high…
Heap monoids equipped with Bernoulli measures are a model of probabilistic asynchronous systems. We introduce in this framework the notion of asynchronous stopping time, which is analogous to the notion of stopping time for classical…
Highly accurate measurements of quantum level energies in molecular systems provide a test ground for new physics, as such effects could manifest themselves as minute shifts in the quantum level structures of atoms and molecules. For the…
