We consider N=1 supersymmetric U(N) gauge theories with Z_k symmetric tree-level superpotentials W for an adjoint chiral multiplet. We show that (for integer 2N/k) this Z_k symmetry survives in the quantum effective theory as a…

Dokos et. al. studied the distribution of two statistics over permutations $\mathfrak{S}_n$ of $\{1,2,\dots, n\}$ that avoid one or more length three patterns. A permutation $\sigma\in\mathfrak{S}_n$ contains a pattern…

An occurrence of a classical pattern p in a permutation \pi is a subsequence of \pi whose letters are in the same relative order (of size) as those in p. In an occurrence of a generalized pattern, some letters of that subsequence may be…

Let $S_n$ denote the set of permutations of $[n]:=\{1,\cdots, n\}$, and denote a permutation $\sigma\in S_n$ by $\sigma=\sigma_1\sigma_2\cdots \sigma_n$. For $l\ge2$ an integer, let $A^{(n)}_{l;k}\subset S_n$ denote the event that the set…

We consider recent claims that supersymmetry is anomalous in the presence of a R-symmetry anomaly. We revisit arguments that such an anomaly in supersymmetry can be removed and write down an explicit counterterm that accomplishes it.…

Partially ordered patterns (POPs) generalize classical permutation patterns and have been extensively studied in the contexts of permutations, words, compositions, and partitions. Burstein, Han, Kitaev, and Zhang established the…

A pattern $\tau$ is a permutation, and an arithmetic occurrence of $\tau$ in (another) permutation $\pi=\pi_1\pi_2...\pi_n$ is a subsequence $\pi_{i_1}\pi_{i_2}...\pi_{i_m}$ of $\pi$ that is order isomorphic to $\tau$ where the numbers…

We use various combinatorial and probabilistic techniques to study growth rates for the probability that a random permutation from the Mallows distribution avoids consecutive patterns. The Mallows distribution behaves like a $q$-analogue of…

We present a class of permutations for which the number of distinctly ordered subsequences of each permutation approaches an almost optimal value as the length of the permutation grows to infinity.

The massive even-parity non-Abelian gauge model in three space-time dimensions proposed by Jackiw and Pi is studied at the tree-level. The propagators are computed and the spectrum consistency is analyzed, besides, the symmetries of the…

The general solution of the conformal Ward identities (CWI's) in momentum space, and their matching to perturbation theory, allows to uncover some specific characteristics of the breaking of conformal symmetry, induced by the anomaly. It…

Let $(W,H,\mu)$ be the classical Wiener space, assume that $U=I_W+u$ is an adapted perturbation of identity where the perturbation $u$ is an equivalence class w.r.to the Wiener measure. We study several necessary and sufficient conditions…

Let T_k^m={\sigma \in S_k | \sigma_1=m}. We prove that the number of permutations which avoid all patterns in T_k^m equals (k-2)!(k-1)^{n+1-k} for k <= n. We then prove that for any \tau in T_k^1 (or any \tau in T_k^k), the number of…

Recently, Babson and Steingrimsson (see \cite{BS}) introduced generalized permutations patterns that allow the requirement that two adjacent letters in a pattern must be adjacent in the permutation. Following \cite{BCS}, let $e_k\pi$…

Permutation $\sigma$ appears in permutation $\pi$ if there exists a subsequence of $\pi$ that is order-isomorphic to $\sigma$. The natural question is to check if $\sigma$ appears in $\pi$, and if so count the number of occurrences. We know…

Motivated by Williams' problem of measuring novel differences between shift equivalence (SE) and strong shift equivalence (SSE), we introduce three equivalence relations that provide new ways to obstruct SSE while merely assuming SE. Our…

Two matrix vector spaces $V,W\subset \mathbb C^{n\times n}$ are said to be equivalent if $SVR=W$ for some nonsingular $S$ and $R$. These spaces are congruent if $R=S^T$. We prove that if all matrices in $V$ and $W$ are symmetric, or all…

Let $p>2$ be a prime number. Let $G:=GL_2(Q_p)$ and $\pi$, $\tau$ smooth irreducible representations of $G$ on $\bar{F}_p$-vector spaces with a central character. We show if $\pi$ is supersingular then $Ext^1_G(\tau,\pi)\neq 0$ implies…

Simple flavor symmetry argument without QCD dynamics shows why CP violation observed in neutral $B$ to $K\pi$ decays is absent in charged B decays where tree diagram final state has two $u$ quarks satisfying Pauli principle. Entanglement…

The existence of apparently coincidental equalities (also called Wilf-equivalences) between the enumeration sequences, or generating functions, of various hereditary classes of combinatorial structures has attracted significant interest. We…
