An explicit expression for the general bivariate Krawtchouk polynomials is obtained in terms of the standard Krawtchouk and dual Hahn polynomials. The bivariate Krawtchouk polynomials occur as matrix elements of the unitary reducible…
We show that homologically projectively dual varieties for Grassmannians Gr(2,6) and Gr(2,7) are given by certain noncommutative resolutions of singularities of the corresponding Pfaffian varieties. As an application we describe the derived…
In this article, the 2-iterated Sheffer polynomials are introduced by means of generating function and operational representation. Using the theory of Riordan arrays and relations between the Sheffer sequences and Riordan arrays, a…
We are interested in computing the Bredon cohomology with coefficients in the constant Mackey functor $\underline{ \mathbb{F}_2}$ for equivariant $\text{Rep}(C_2)$ spaces, in particular for Grassmannian manifolds of the form…
We consider ideals involving the maximal minors of a polynomial matrix. For example, those arising in the computation of the critical values of a polynomial restricted to a variety for polynomial optimisation. Gr\"obner bases are a…
We give a description of the mod 2 cohomology algebra of the oriented Grassmann manifold $\widetilde G_{2^t,4}$ as the quotient of a polynomial algebra by a certain ideal. In the process we find a Gr\"obner basis for that ideal, which we…
The ring of invariant polynomials ${\mathbb C}[V]^G$ over a given finite dimensional representation space $V$ of a complex reductive group $G$ is known, by a famous theorem of Hilbert, to be finitely generated. The general proof being…
In the present paper we continue the project of systematic construction of invariant differential operators on the example of the non-compact algebra $G_{2(2)}$. We use both the minimal and the maximal Heisenberg parabolic subalgebras. We…
Using connections to random matrix theory and orthogonal polynomials, we develop a framework for obtaining explicit closed-form formulae for the number, $\mathscr{N}_{g}(2\nu,j)$, of connected $2\nu$-valent labeled graphs with $j$ vertices…
For an arrangement with complement X and fundamental group G, we relate the truncated cohomology ring, H^{<=2}(X), to the second nilpotent quotient, G/G_3. We define invariants of G/G_3 by counting normal subgroups of a fixed prime index p,…
This article is divided in two parts. In the first part we endow a certain ring of ``Drinfeld quasi-modular forms'' for $\GL_2(\FF_q[T])$ (where $q$ is a power of a prime) with a system of "divided derivatives" (or hyperderivations). This…
We present and study two families of polynomials with coefficients in the center of the universal enveloping algebra. These polynomials are analogues of a determinant and a characteristic polynomial of a certain non-commutative matrix,…
As an application of linear algebra for enumerative combinatorics, we introduce two new ideas, signed bigrassmannian polynomials and bigrassmannian determinant. First, a signed bigrassmannian polynomial is a variant of the statistic given…
Quiver Grassmannians are varieties parametrizing subrepresentations of a quiver representation. It is observed that certain quiver Grassmannians for type A quivers are isomorphic to the degenerate flag varieties investigated earlier by the…
For $G$ a semisimple, simply-connected complex algebraic group and two dominant integral weights $\lambda, \mu$, we consider the dimensions of weight spaces $V_\lambda(\mu)$ of weight $\mu$ in the irreducible, finite-dimensional highest…
We extend the recently established Mellin correspondence of supergravity and superstring amplitudes to the case of arbitrary helicity configurations. The amplitudes are discussed in the framework of Grassmannian varieties. We generalize…
We introduce G{\aa}rding polynomials, a class of real multivariate polynomials characterized by positivity regions that are invariant under translation by positive vectors and closed under strictly positive affine transformations. We prove…

Explicit expressions are given for the actions and radial matrix elements of basic radial observables on multi-dimensional spaces in a continuous sequence of orthonormal bases for unitary SU(1,1) irreps. Explicit expressions are also given…
Divided difference operators are degree-reducing operators on the cohomology of flag varieties that are used to compute algebraic invariants of the ring (for instance, structure constants). We identify divided difference operators on the…
