In this paper we study complete linear series on a hyperelliptic curve $C$ of arithmetic genus $g$. Let $A$ be the unique line bundle on $C$ such that $|A|$ is a $g^1_2$, and let $\mathcal{L}$ be a line bundle on $C$ of degree $d$. Then…

We study the problem of maximizing a monotone submodular set function subject to linear packing constraints. An instance of this problem consists of a matrix $A \in [0,1]^{m \times n}$, a vector $b \in [1,\infty)^m$, and a monotone…

We study maximal subalgebras of an arbitrary finite dimensional algebra over a field, and obtain full classification/description results of such algebras. This is done by first obtaining a complete classification in the semisimple case, and…

Let $\omega_0,\dots,\omega_M$ be complex numbers. If $H_0,\dots,H_M$ are polynomials of degree at most $\rho_0,\dots,\rho_M$, and $G(z)=\sum_{m=0} ^M H_m(z) (1-z)^{\omega_m}$ has a zero at $z=0$ of maximal order (for the given…

We construct explicit representations of the Heisenberg-Weyl algebra [P,M]=1 in terms of ladder operators acting in the space of Sheffer-type polynomials. Thus we establish a link between the monomiality principle and the umbral calculus.…

In parametric sequence alignment, optimal alignments of two sequences are computed as a function of the penalties for mismatches and spaces, producing many different optimal alignments. Here we give a 3/(2^{7/3}\pi^{2/3})n^{2/3} +O(n^{1/3}…

We generalize the existence of maximal orders in a semi-simple algebra for general ground rings. We also improve several statements in Chapter 5 and 6 of Reiner's book concerning separable algebras by removing the separability condition,…

In this paper, we study some new examples of ideals on $\omega$ with maximal Tukey type (that is, maximal among partial orders of size continuum). This discussion segues into an examination of a refinement of the Tukey order -- known as the…

There is a natural infinite graph whose vertices are the monomial ideals in a polynomial ring. The definition involves Gr\"obner bases or the action of an algebraic torus. We present algorithms for computing the (affine schemes…

Let $\{a_i\}_{i=1}^\ell$ be a strongly unimodal positive integer sequence with peak position $k$. The rank of such sequence is defined to be $\ell-2k+1$. Let $u(m,n)$ denote the number of sequences $\{a_i\}_{i=1}^\ell$ with rank $m$ and…

For a finite set $A\subset\mathbb{N}$ and $k\in \mathbb{N}$, let $\omega_k(A) = \sum_{i\in A, i\neq k}1$. For each $n\in \mathbb{N}$, define $$a_{k, n}\ =\ |\{E\subset \mathbb{N}\,:\, E = \emptyset\mbox{ or } \omega_k(E) < \min E\leqslant…

Given a well-quasi-order $X$ and an ordinal $\alpha$, the set $s^F_\alpha(X)$ of transfinite sequences on $X$ with length less than $\alpha$ and with finite image is also a well-quasi-order, as proven by Nash-Williams. Before Nash-Williams…

For an arbitrary ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring $R$ we define the notion of initially regular sequences on $R/I$. These sequences share properties with regular sequences. In particular, the length of an initially regular sequence provides a…

The core of an ideal is defined as the intersection of all of its reductions. In this paper we provide an explicit description for the core of a monomial ideal $I$ satisfying certain residual conditions, showing that ${\rm core}(I)$…

Let $S_n$ be a polynomial ring with $n$ variables over a field and $\{I_n\}_{n \geq 1}$ a chain of ideals such that each $I_n$ is a monomial ideal of $S_n$ fixed by permutations of the variables. In this paper, we present a way to determine…

A monomial algebra is the quotient of a polynomial algebra by an ideal generated by monomials. We prove that finite-dimensional monomial algebras are characterized by their automorphism group among finite-dimensional, local algebras with…
