We determine that $\gamma$-vectors of partitioned permutohedra, thereby generalizing a result of Foata and Sch\"utzenberger. Our result is closely related to a result of Athanasiadis on the representation of the symmetric group on the…
In the present paper, we prove the existence of universal polynomials which express multi-singularity loci classes of prescribed types for proper morphisms between smooth schemes over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero --…
We establish an alternative, ``perpendicular" collection of generating functions for the coefficients of Gaussian polynomials, $\begin{bmatrix}N+m\\m\end{bmatrix}_q$. We provide a general characterization of these perpendicular generating…
These are lecture notes supporting a minicourse taught at the Summer School in Total Positivity and Quantum Field Theory at CMSA Harvard in June 2025. We give an introduction to positive geometries and their canonical forms. We present the…
We derive an identity for certain linear combinations of polylogarithm functions with negative exponents, which implies relations for linear combinations of Eulerian numbers. The coefficients of our linear combinations are related to…
In this paper, we derive eight basic identities of symmetry in three variables related to generalized Euler polynomials and alternating generalized power sums. All of these are new, since there have been results only about identities of…
Given the complement of a hyperplane arrangement, let $\Gamma$ be the closure of the graph of the map inverting each of its defining linear forms. The characteristic polynomial manifests itself in the Hilbert series of $\Gamma$ in two…
We consider pro-isomorphic zeta functions of the groups $\Gamma(\mathcal{O}_K)$, where $\Gamma$ is a unipotent group scheme defined over $\mathbb{Z}$ and $K$ varies over all number fields. Under certain conditions, we show that these…
Generalization of the Euler polynomials ${{A}_{n}}\left( x \right)={{\left( 1-x \right)}^{n+1}}\sum\nolimits_{m=0}^{\infty }{{{m}^{n}}{{x}^{m}}}$ are the polynomials ${{\alpha }_{n}}\left( x \right)={{\left( 1-x…
From a well-known equation of Hardy, one can derive a simple linear combination of the Euler-Mascheroni constant ($\gamma=0.577215\ldots$) and Euler-Gompertz constant ($\delta=0.596347\ldots$): $\gamma+\delta/e=\textrm{Ein}\left(1\right)$.…
The classical version of P\'olya's theorem provides a simple method for certifying that a homogeneous polynomial of degree d is strictly copositive, that is, it takes only positive values on the nonnegative real orthant. However, this…
We establish some identities of Euler related sums. By using these identities, we discuss the closed form representations of sums of harmonic numbers and reciprocal parametric binomial coefficients through parametric harmonic numbers,…
In this paper we study unimodality problems for the independence polynomial of a graph, including unimodality, log-concavity and reality of zeros. We establish recurrence relations and give factorizations of independence polynomials for…
We prove some properties of completely monotonic functions and apply them to obtain results on gamma and $q$-gamma functions.
An enumerative theory of triangulations of simplicial complexes has been developed by Stanley. A key role in his theory is played by the local $h$-polynomial of a triangulation of a simplex. This paper develops a parallel theory, in which…
In algebraic, topological, and geometric combinatorics inequalities among the coefficients of combinatorial polynomials are frequently studied. Recently a notion called the alternatingly increasing property, which is stronger than…
It is a classical fact that the number of vertices of the graphical zonotope $Z_\Gamma$ is equal to the number of acyclic orientations of a graph $\Gamma$. We show that the $f$-polynomial of $Z_\Gamma$ is obtained as the principal…
In this study we introduce a second type of higher order generalised geometric polynomials. This we achieve by examining the generalised stirling numbers $S(n; k;\alpha;\beta;\gamma)$ [Hsu & Shiue,1998] for some negative arguments. We study…
The Gaussian correlation inequality for multivariate zero-mean normal probabilities of symmetrical n-rectangles can be considered as an inequality for multivariate gamma distributions (in the sense of Krishnamoorthy and Parthasarathy [5])…
