The main purpose of this note is to provide an elementary discussion of some simple triangles of integer numbers in particular through their connections with representation theory of $sl_2$. The triangles under consideration are the Catalan…
The $\gamma$-linear projected barcode was recently introduced as an alternative to the well-known fibered barcode for multiparameter persistence, in which restrictions of the modules to lines are replaced by pushforwards of the modules…
Here we develop a technique of computing the invariants of $n-$ary forms and systems of forms using the discriminants of corresponding multilinear forms built of their partial derivatives, which should be cosidered as analogues of classical…
We give an expression for the determinant of the twisted Laplacian associated with any linear representation of a finite quiver in terms of traces of the holonomy of its cycles. To establish this expression, we prove a general identity for…
The signature of a path \gamma is a sequence whose n-th term is the order-n iterated integrals of \gamma. It arises from solving multidimensional linear differential equations driven by \gamma. We are interested in relating the path…
Extending a classical estimate of Mertens for the sum of the reciprocals of the first primes, we provide an explicit remainder formula for products of an arbitrary, but fixed, number of primes.
We prove a number of basic vanishing results for modified diagonal classes. We also obtain some sharp results for modified diagonals of curves and abelian varieties, and we prove a conjecture of O'Grady about modified diagonals on double…
We introduce an invertible operation on finite sequences of positive integers and call it "kneading". Kneading preserves three invariants of sequences -- the parity of the length, the sum of the entries, and one we call the "alternant". We…
In previous work on Clebsch-Gordan coefficients, certain remarkable hexagonal arrays of integers are constructed that display behaviors found in Pascal's Triangle. We explain these behaviors further using the binomial transform and discrete…
The article contains some important classes of multisets. Combinatorial proofs of problems on the number of m-submultisets and m-permutations of multiset elements are considered and effective algorithms for their calculation are given. In…
We show in detail some results, outlined in a previous paper regarding the case of Brownian motion (BM), about the distribution of the $n$th-passage time of a one-dimensional diffusion obtained by a space or time transformation of BM,…
In this paper we show how to apply various techniques and theorems (including Pincherle's theorem, an extension of Euler's formula equating infinite series and continued fractions, an extension of the corresponding transformation that…
A short proof of the equivalence of the recurrence of non-backtracking random walk and that of simple random walk on regular infinite graphs is given. It is then shown how this proof can be extended in certain cases where the graph in…
In this paper, we describe a method to determine the power sum of the elements of the rows in the hyperbolic Pascal triangles corresponding to $\{4,q\}$ with $q\ge5$. The method is based on the theory of linear recurrences, and the results…
We suggest and explore a matroidal version of the Brualdi - Ryser conjecture about Latin squares. We prove that any $n\times n$ matrix, whose rows and columns are bases of a matroid, has an independent partial transversal of length…
In this paper, we present an explicit formula for the Baer invariant of a finitely generated abelian group with respect to the variety of polynilpotent groups of class row $(c_1,...,c_t)$, ${\cal N}_{c_1,...,c_t}$. In particular, one can…
We consider the structure of a variation of the Fibonacci sequence which is determined by a Bernoulli process. The associated structure of all Bernoulli variations of the Fibonacci sequence can be represented by a directed binary tree,…
We combinatorially prove that the number $R(n,k)$ of permutations of length $n$ having $k$ runs is a log-concave sequence in $k$, for all $n$. We also give a new combinatorial proof for the log-concavity of the Eulerian numbers.
We explore some properties of a recent representation of permanental vectors which expresses them as sums of independent vectors with components that are independent gamma random variables.
The regular Dirichlet extension is the dual concept of regular Dirichlet subspace. The main purpose of this paper is to characterize all the regular Dirichlet extensions of one-dimensional Brownian motion and to explore their structures. It…
