A character identity which relates irreducible character values of the hyperoctahedral group $B_n$ to those of the symmetric group $S_{2n}$ was recently proved by L\"ubeck and Prasad. Their proof is algebraic and involves Lie theory. We…
We consider the wreath product of two symmetric groups as a group of blocks permutations and we study its conjugacy classes. We give a polynomiality property for the structure coefficients of the center of the wreath product of symmetric…
We present a full description of the Bieri-Neumann-Strebel invariant of restricted permutational wreath products of groups. We also give partial results about the 2-dimensional homotopical invariant of such groups. These results may be…
In this paper the authors introduce a new notion called the quantum wreath product, which is the algebra $B \wr_Q \mathcal{H}(d)$ produced from a given algebra $B$, a positive integer $d$, and a choice $Q=(R,S,\rho,\sigma)$ of parameters.…
In 1997 Clarke et al. studied a $q$-analogue of Euler's difference table for $n!$ using a key bijection $\Psi$ on symmetric groups. In this paper we extend their results to the wreath product of a cyclic group with the symmetric group. In…
In this article, we initiate the study of the large-scale geometry of permutational wreath products of the form $F\wr_{H/N}H$, where $H$ is finitely presented and where $N$ is a normal subgroup of $H$ satisfying a certain assumption of non…
A groupoid identity is said to be linear of length $2k$ if the same $k$ variables appear on both sides of the identity exactly once. We classify and count all varieties of groupoids defined by a single linear identity. For $k=3$, there are…
For a finitely generated regular wreath product, the metric is known, but its computation can be an NP-complete problem. Also, it is not known for the nonregular case. In this article, a metric estimate is defined for regular wreath…
We prove that the wreath product orbifolds studied earlier by the first author provide a large class of higher dimensional examples of orbifolds whose orbifold Hodge numbers coincide with the ordinary ones of suitable resolutions of…
We introduce a notion of partition wreath product of a finite group by a partition quantum group, a construction motivated on the one hand by classical wreath products and on the other hand by the free wreath product of J. Bichon. We…
We introduce the wedge product of two polytopes. The wedge product is described in terms of inequality systems, in terms of vertex coordinates as well as purely combinatorially, from the corresponding data of its constituents. The wedge…
Various statistics on wreath products are defined via canonical words, "colored" right to left minima and "colored" descents. It is shown that refined counts with respect to these statistics have nice recurrence formulas of…
We present alternative, q-hypergeometric proofs of some polynomial analogues of classical q-series identities recently discovered by Alladi and Berkovich, and Berkovich and Garvan.
Consider the generalized iterated wreath product $S_{r_1}\wr \ldots \wr S_{r_k}$ of symmetric groups. We give a complete description of the traversal for the generalized iterated wreath product. We also prove an existence of a bijection…
Recently the second named author discovered a combinatorial identity in the context of vertex representations of quantum Kac-Moody algebras. We give a direct and elementary proof of this identity. Our method is to show a related identity of…
We prove that if a finite group $H$ has a generalized involution model, as defined by Bump and Ginzburg, then the wreath product $H \wr S_n$ also has a generalized involution model. This extends the work of Baddeley concerning involution…
We generalize two bijections due to Garsia and Gessel to compute the generating functions of the two vector statistics $(\des_G, \maj,\ell_G, \col)$ and $(\des_G, \ides_G, \maj, \imaj, \col, \icol)$ over the wreath product of a symmetric…
Mark Haiman has reduced Macdonald positivity conjecture to a statement about geometry of the Hilbert scheme of points on the plane, and formulated a generalization of the conjectures where the symmetric group is replaced by the wreath…
Recently Corteel and Welsh outlined a technique for finding new sum-product identities by using functional relations between generating functions for cylindric partitions and a theorem of Borodin. Here, we extend this framework to include…
The generalized wreath product of symmetric association schemes was introduced by R.A.Bailey in the European Journal of Combinatorics 27 (2006) 428-435. It is recognized as a unification of both the wreath product and the direct product of…
