A power dominating set of a graph is a set of vertices that observes every vertex in the graph by combining classical domination with an iterative propagation process arising from electrical circuit theory. In this paper, we study the power…

This article studies a generalization of magic squares to $k$-uniform hypergraphs. In traditional magic squares the entries come from the natural numbers. A magic labeling of the vertices in a graph or hypergraph has since been generalized…

The polynomial deformations of the Witten extensions of the U(su(2)) and U(osp(1,2)) algebras are three generator algebras with normal ordering, admitting a two generator subalgebra. The modules and the representations of these algebras are…

The main achievement of this paper is a geometric characterisation of certain subvarieties of the Cartan variety (the standard projective variety associated to the split exceptional group of Lie type E_6) over an arbitrary field K. The…

In this paper we deal with edge-to-edge, irreducible decompositions of a centrally symmetric convex $(2k)$-gon into centrally symmetric convex pieces. We prove an upper bound on the number of these decompositions for any value of $k$, and…

When two boundary-parabolic representations of knot groups are given, we introduce the connected sum of these representations and show several natural properties including the unique factorization property. Furthermore, the complex volume…

We discuss methods to construct a polynomial parametrization of some interesting knotted surfaces (knotted spheres, knotted tori and knotted planes) and provide examples.

We present explicit U-duality invariants for the R, C, Q, O$ (real, complex, quaternionic and octonionic) magic supergravities in four and five dimensions using complex forms with a reality condition. From these invariants we derive an…

Starting from degree N solutions of a time dependent Schroedinger-like equation for classical orthogonal polynomials, a linear matrix equation describing perturbations around the N zeros of the polynomial is derived. The matrix has…

We confirm two conjectures of Lassak on the area of reduced spherical polygons. The area of every reduced spherical non-regular $n$-gon is less than that of the regular spherical $n$-gon of the same thickness. Moreover, the area of every…

For prime $p$ we define magic squares of order $kp^3$, called type-$p$ Franklin squares, whose properties specialize to those of classical Franklin squares in the case $p=2$. We construct type-$p$ Franklin squares in prime-power orders.

Considering the L-function of exponential sums associated to a polynomial over a finite field F_q, Deligne proved that a reciprocal root's p-adic order is a rational number in the interval [0, 1]. Based on hypergeometric theory, in this…

Finite trigonometric sums appear in various branches of Physics, Mathematics and their applications. For p; q to coprime positive integers and r we consider the finite trigonometric sums involving the product of three trigonometric…

We study the problem of when a periodic square matrix of order $n$ over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$ is decomposable into the sum of a square-zero matrix and a torsion matrix, and show that this decomposition can always be obtained for…

Magic labelings of graphs are studied in great detail by Stanley and Stewart. In this article, we construct and enumerate magic labelings of graphs using Hilbert bases of polyhedral cones and Ehrhart quasi-polynomials of polytopes. We…

Let $\mathcal{D}_{n,m}$ be the algebra of the quantum integrals of the deformed Calogero-Moser-Sutherland problem corresponding to the root system of the Lie superalgebra $\frak{gl}(n,m)$. The algebra $\mathcal{D}_{n,m}$ acts naturally on…

The eigenvalues of the 3 off-diagonal matrices of rank $n$ with elements $1+i cot[(j-k)\pi/n], sin^{-2}[(j-k)\pi/n]$ and $sin^{-4}[(j-k)\pi /n], (j=1,2,...,n, k=1,2,...,n, j\neq k)$ are computed. The sums over $k$ from 1 to $n-1$ of…

We define an $n$-gon to be any convex polygon with $n$ vertices. Let $V$ represent the set of vertices of the polygon. A proper $k$-coloring refers to a function, $f$ : $V$ $\rightarrow$ $\{1, 2, 3, ... k\}$, such that for any two vertices…

Let R and S be two irreducible root systems spanning the same vector space and having the same Weyl group W, such that S (but not necessarily R) is reduced. For each such pair (R,S) we construct a family of W-invariant orthogonal…

We give a simple construction of an orthogonal basis for the space of m by n matrices with row and column sums equal to zero. This vector space corresponds to the affine space naturally associated with the Birkhoff polytope, contingency…
