This set of notes re-proves known results on weighted automata (over a field, also known as multiplicity automata). The text offers a unified view on theorems and proofs that have appeared in the literature over decades and were written in…
In this note we give a short, direct proof of the well known Combinatorial Nullstellensatz.
A simple proof of the celebrated theorem of Lee and Yang is attempted in this short note.
This note presents a unified theorem of the alternative that explicitly allows for any combination of equality, componentwise inequality, weak dominance, strict dominance, and nonnegativity relations. The theorem nests 60 special cases,…
In this note, we shall give an improved lower bound for the argument of a power of a given algebraic number which has absolute value one but is not a root of unity.
We present coincidence and common fixed point results of selfmappings satisfying a contraction type in partially ordered metric spaces. As an application, we give an existence theorem for a common solution of integral equations.
This very short correction notes a gap in an argument of an earlier paper, and also provides a theorem of similar flavor to the main result of that paper.
Co-occurrences between two words provide useful insights into the semantics of those words. Consequently, numerous prior work on word embedding learning have used co-occurrences between two words as the training signal for learning word…
In this note, we give an alternate proof of the multinomial theorem using a probabilistic approach. Although the multinomial theorem is basically a combinatorial result, our proof may be simpler for a student familiar with only basic…
We establish common fixed point theorems for two pairs of weakly compatible self-mappings using an auxiliary function of two variables. Unlike classical results, our theorems do not assume continuity of the mappings and require completeness…
In this short note is on the equivalence between non-Newtonian metric (particularly multiplicative metric) and metric. We present a different proof the fact that the notion of a non-Newtonian metric space is not more general than that of a…
In this note, we establish some new results on some special types of function algebras and also give new proofs to some existing ones
We use results on Dyck words and lattice paths to derive a formula for the exact number of binary words of a given length with a given minimal abelian border length, tightening a bound on that number from Christodoulakis et al. (Discrete…
In this note we give an extended version of Combinatorial Nullstellensatz, with weaker assumption on nonvanishing monomial. We also present an application of our result in a situation where the original theorem does not seem to work.
We describe a technique for mechanically proving certain kinds of theorems in combinatorics on words, using automata and a package for manipulating them. We illustrate our technique by solving, purely mechanically, an open problem of Currie…
We present several short proofs that resolve open problems from the algebraic and enumerative combinatorics literature. First, we consider the echelonmotion operator on modular lattices. We resolve a conjecture of Defant, Jiang, Marczinzik,…
In this paper, we introduce the concept of mixed (G, S)-monotone mappings and prove coupled coincidence and coupled common fixed point theorems for such mappings satisfying a nonlinear contraction involving altering distance functions.…
In this paper we provide an overview of a series of recent results regarding algorithms for searching for subsequences in words or for the analysis of the sets of subsequences occurring in a word.
This paper investigates the expressiveness of a fragment of first-order sentences in Gaifman normal form, namely the positive Boolean combinations of basic local sentences. We show that they match exactly the first-order sentences preserved…
The purpose of this note is to present two elementary, but useful, facts concerning actions on uniformly convex spaces. We demonstrate how each of them can be used in an alternative proof of the triviality of the first $L_p$-cohomology of…
