The joint use of counting functions, Hilbert basis and Markov basis allows to define a procedure to generate all the fractions that satisfy a given set of constraints in terms of orthogonality. The general case of mixed level designs,…
We introduce new refinements of the Bell, factorial, and unsigned Stirling numbers of the first and second kind that unite the derangement, involution, associated factorial, associated Bell, incomplete Stirling, restricted factorial,…
Gibbs-type random probability measures and the exchangeable random partitions they induce represent an important framework both from a theoretical and applied point of view. In the present paper, motivated by species sampling problems, we…

We extend the notion of mex, which is central in combinatorial number theory, to an arbitrary combinatorial structure, and we prove a general theorem to determine the generating function of the objects having fixed mex. We then study this…

For a given permutation or set partition there is a natural way to assign a genus. Counting all permutations or partitions of a fixed genus according to cycle lengths or block sizes, respectively, is the main content of this article. After…
A Gray code for a combinatorial class is a method for listing the objects in the class so that successive objects differ in some prespecified, small way, typically expressed as a bounded Hamming distance. In a previous work, the authors of…
Exponentiating the hypergeometric series gives a recursion relation for integer sequences which are generalizations of conventional Bell numbers. The corresponding associated Stirling numbers of the second kind are also generated and…
We prove formulas for the generating functions for M_2-rank differences for partitions without repeated odd parts. These formulas are in terms of modular forms and generalized Lambert series.

The reduced Kronecker coefficients are particular instances of Kronecker coefficients that contain enough information to recover them. In this notes we compute the generating function of a family of reduced Kronecker coefficients. We also…
Let $m,k$ be fixed positive integers. Determining the generating function for the number of tilings of an $m\times n$ rectangle by $k\times 1$ rectangles is a long-standing open problem to which the answer is only known in certain special…
We find general solutions to the generating-function equation sum c_q^{(X)} z^q = F(z)^X, where X is a complex number and F(z) is a convergent power series with |F(0)| >0. We then use these results to derive finite expressions containing…
Restricted Whitney numbers of the first kind appear in the combinatorial recursion for the matroid Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials. In the special case of braid matroids (the matroid associated to the partition lattice, the complete graph, the…
We calculate the partition function for "composite particles". For any finite number of states d, and in the following two cases: 1)all states have the same energy, 2)the energy is linearly distributed over the states, we transform the…
The purpose of this paper is to present a collection of interesting generating functions for partitions which have connections to positive definite binary quadratic forms. In establishing our results we obtain some new Bailey pairs.
