We construct a canonical irreducible representation for the orthofermion algebra of arbitrary order, and show that every representation decomposes into irreducible representations that are isomorphic to either the canonical representation…
The set of terms of an infinite sequence expressed by a recurrence relation is equal to the set of maximum numbers of all primitive Pythagorean triples such that the difference between the two non-maximum numbers is 1, which Cimmino showed.…
We give a method to determine an explicit solution to a system of two inhomogeneous linear recursive sequences of higher order. Our approach can be used efficiently in solving certain combinatorial problems. We finish the paper by…
The theme of the first two sections, is to prepare the framework of how from a "complicated" family of index models I in K_1 we build many and/or complicated structures in a class K_2. The index models are characteristically linear orders,…
We address the phenomenon of reflection in concave spherical mirror in two contrasting approaches to optics. In his Optics (ca.165) Ptolemy applied the cathetus principle as a regulative means for explaining qualitatively effects related to…
The graded reflection equation is investigated for the $U_{q}[sl(r|2m)^{(2)}]$ vertex model. We have found four classes of diagonal solutions and twelve classes of non-diagonal ones. The number of free parameters for some solutions depends…
The order $O_n(\sigma)$ of a permutation $\sigma$ of $n$ objects is the smallest integer $k \geq 1$ such that the $k$-th iterate of $\sigma$ gives the identity. A remarkable result about the order of a uniformly chosen permutation is due to…
We introduce the notion of the \emph{first-order part} of a problem in the Weihrauch degrees. Informally, the first-order part of a problem $\mathsf{P}$ is the strongest problem with codomaixn $\omega$ that is Weihrauch reducible to…
We study the dynamics of phase ordering of a non-conserved, scalar order parameter in one dimension, with long-range interactions characterized by a power law $r^{-d-\sigma}$. In contrast to higher dimensional systems, the point nature of…
We study linear orderings expanded by functions for successor and predecessor. The successor and predecessor on linear orderings capture the relatively intrinsically computably enumerable information about orderings in much the same way…
In this article, we develop an explicit categorical realization of sheafification based on colimits, products, and subobjects, emphasizing its behavior in algebraic and topological-algebraic settings. We prove that if $\mathcal{C}$ is a…
We describe a "slow" version of the hierarchy of uniform reflection principles over Peano Arithmetic ($\mathbf{PA}$). These principles are unprovable in Peano Arithmetic (even when extended by usual reflection principles of lower…
We study differential forms invariant under a finite reflection group over a field of arbitrary characteristic. In particular, we prove an analogue of Saito's freeness criterion for invariant differential 1-forms. We also discuss how…
We introduce three families of diagonal reflection principles for matrices of stationary sets of ordinals. We analyze both their relationships among themselves and their relationships with other known principles of simultaneous stationary…
This paper considers the question of characterizing the behavior of waves reflected by a fractional singularity of the wave speed profile, i.e., of the form \[ c(x_1, x_2, x_3) = c_0 \left(1 + \left( \frac{x_1}{\ell}\right)_{+}^\alpha…
A permutation $\pi$ contains a pattern $\sigma$ if and only if there is a subsequence in $\pi$ with its letters are in the same relative order as those in $\sigma$. Partially ordered patterns (POPs) provide a convenient way to denote…
We study an inverse first-hitting problem for a one-dimensional, time-homogeneous diffusion $X(t)$ reflected between two boundaries $a$ and $b,$ which starts from a random position $\eta.$ Let $a \le S \le b$ be a given threshold, such that…
Inspired by Aldous' conjecture for the spectral gap of the interchange process and its recent resolution by Caputo, Liggett and Richthammer, we define an associated order on the irreducible representations of S_n. Aldous' conjecture is…
The first order equation relating object and image location for a mirror of arbitrary conic-sectional shape is derived. It is also shown that the parabolic reflecting surface is the only one free of aberration and only in the limiting case…
A permutation is called smooth if the corresponding Schubert variety is smooth. Gilboa and Lapid prove that in the symmetric group, multiplying the reflections below a smooth element $w$ in Bruhat order in a compatible order yields back the…
