We prove that the coefficients of certain weight -1/2 harmonic Maass forms are traces of singular moduli for weak Maass forms. To prove this theorem, we construct a theta lift from spaces of weight -2 harmonic weak Maass forms to spaces of…

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…

The exponential orthogonal polynomials encode via the theory of hyponormal operators a shade function $g$ supported by a bounded planar shape. We prove under natural regularity assumptions that these complex polynomials satisfy a three term…

It is known that differences of symmetric functions corresponding to various bases are nonnegative on the nonnegative orthant exactly when the partitions defining them are comparable in dominance order. The only exception is the case of…

Let $n, m$ be positive integers, $n\geq m$. We make several remarks on the relationship between approximate differentiability of higher order and Morse-Sard properties. For instance, among other things we show that if a function…

Let $p$ be a nonconstant form in $\mathbb{R}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ with $p(1,\dots,1)>0$. If $p^m$ has strictly positive coefficients for some integer $m\ge1$, we show that $p^m$ has strictly positive coefficients for all sufficiently large $m$.…

Let $r \leqslant n$ be nonnegative integers, and let $N = \binom{n}{r} - 1$. For a matroid $M$ of rank $r$ on the finite set $E = [n]$ and a partial field $k$ in the sense of Semple--Whittle, it is known that the following are equivalent:…

In this paper, we are interested in matrix valued orthogonal polynomials on the real line with respect to exponential weights. We obtain strong asymptotics as the degree tends to infinity in different regions of the complex plane, as well…

The Yang-Lee, Fisher and Potts zeros of the one-dimensional Q-state Potts model are studied using the theory of dynamical systems. An exact recurrence relation for the partition function is derived. It is shown that zeros of the partition…

We study the partition function of Potts model in an external (magnetic) field, and its connections with the zero-field Potts model partition function. Using a deletion-contraction formulation for the partition function Z for this model, we…

We express the coefficients of the Hirzebruch L-polynomials in terms of certain alternating multiple zeta values. In particular, we show that every monomial in the Pontryagin classes appears with a non-zero coefficient, with the expected…

In this paper, the results in [Singular Hessians, J. Algebra 282 (2004), no. 1, 195--204], for polynomial Hessians with determinant zero in small dimensions $r+1$, are generalized to similar results in arbitrary dimension, for polynomial…

In this note we generalize the convolution formula for the Tutte polynomial of Kook-Reiner-Stanton and Etienne-Las Vergnas to a more general setting that includes both arithmetic matroids and delta-matroids. As corollaries, we obtain new…

In this paper we present a method to obtain a possible self-adjoint Hamiltonian operator so its energies satisfy Z(1/2+iE_n)=0, which is an statement equivalent to Riemann Hypothesis, first we use the explicit formula for the Chebyshev…

In the present paper, we introduce the concept of harmonic Tutte polynomials of matroids and discuss some of their properties. In particular, we generalize Greene's theorem, thereby expressing harmonic weight enumerators of codes as…

We characterize operators $T=PQ$ ($P,Q$ orthogonal projections in a Hilbert space $H$) which have a singular value decomposition. A spatial characterizations is given: this condition occurs if and only if there exist orthonormal bases…

This dissertation presents new results on three different themes all related to matroid polytopes. First we investigate properties of Ehrhart polynomials of matroid polytopes, independence matroid polytopes, and polymatroids. We prove that…

We present strong versions of Marstrand's projection theorems and other related theorems. For example, if E is a plane set of positive and finite s-dimensional Hausdorff measure, there is a set X of directions of Lebesgue measure 0, such…

Let $E$ be a Banach lattice, $\lambda_1,\lambda_2,\ldots,\lambda_k$ non-zero scalars and $\varphi_1,\varphi_2,\ldots,\varphi_k$ pairwise independent linear functionals on $E$. We show that if $k<m$ then $\sum_{j=1}^k\lambda_j\varphi_j^m$ is…

The Tutte polynomial for matroids is not directly applicable to polymatroids. For instance, deletion-contraction properties do not hold. We construct a polynomial for polymatroids which behaves similarly to the Tutte polynomial of a…
