In many applications involving binary variables, only pairwise dependence measures, such as correlations, are available. However, for multi-way tables involving more than two variables, these quantities do not uniquely determine the joint…

In this paper we give two characterisations of the class of reflexive graphs admitting distributive lattice polymorphisms and use these characterisations to address the problem of recognition: for a reflexive graph G in which no two…

We study a class of observables in four-dimensional superconformal Yang--Mills theories which, in the planar limit at finite 't Hooft coupling, can be expressed as determinants of semi-infinite matrices built from Bessel functions. This…

For a slim, planar, semimodular lattice $L$ and covering square~$S$, G.~Cz\'edli and E.\,T.~Schmidt introduced the fork extension, $L[S]$, which is also a slim, planar, semimodular lattice. We investigate when a congruence of $L$ extends to…

Let $L$ be a distributive lattice and $R(L)$ the associated Hibi ring. We compute $\reg R(L)$ when $L$ is a planar lattice and give a lower bound for $\reg R(L)$ when $L$ is non-planar, in terms of the combinatorial data of $L.$ As a…

When $\mathbb{Z}^d$ is represented as a finite disjoint union of translated integer sublattices, the translated sublattices must possess some special properties. Such a representation is called a \emph{lattice tiling}. We develop a…

Optimal solutions of combinatorial optimization problems can be sensitive to changes in the cost of one or more elements of the ground set E. Single and set tolerances measure the supremum / infimum possible change such that the current…

This is the first one of a series of papers on association of orientations, lattice polytopes, and abelian group arrangements to graphs. The purpose is to interpret the integral and modular tension polynomials of graphs at zero and negative…

We introduce a solvable lattice model for supersymmetric LLT polynomials, also known as super LLT polynomials, based upon particle interactions in super n-ribbon tableaux. Using operators on a Fock space, we prove a Cauchy identity for…

This paper has been withdrawn by the authors due to a crucial computational error. In this paper we deal with the finite case. We prove that a finite bounded ordered set can be represented as the order of principal congruences of a finite…

We first prove that the set of domino tilings of a fixed finite figure is a distributive lattice, even in the case when the figure has holes. We then give a geometrical interpretation of the order given by this lattice, using (not…

This is Part A of four Parts dedicated to modular lattices of finite length. It builds on 1992 notes of the author (available on ResearchGate), and in so doing heeds a wish of the late Gian-Carlo Rota. Part A is in fairly final form and…

In the monomer-polymer model, a linear rigid polymer covers $k$ adjacent lattice sites, with no lattice site occupied by more than one polymer. The polymers are called $k$-mers, and those unoccupied lattice sites are called monomers. The…

Patch lattices, introduced by G. Cz\'edli and E.T. Schmidt in 2013, are the building stones for slim (and so necessarily finite and planar) semimodular lattices with respect to gluing. Slim semimodular lattices were introduced by G.…

We consider the problem of constructing dense lattices of R^n with a given automorphism group. We exhibit a family of such lattices of density at least cn/2^n, which matches, up to a multiplicative constant, the best known density of a…

Let L be a join-distributive lattice with length n and width(Ji L) \leq k. There are two ways to describe L by k-1 permutations acting on an n-element set: a combinatorial way given by P.H. Edelman and R.E. Jamison in 1985 and a recent…

We prove an identity for five arguments, valid in the lattice of natural numbers with gcd and lcm as lattice operations. More generally, this identity characterizes arbitrary distributive lattices. Fixing three of the five arguments, we…

In this paper we show that the set of closure relations on a finite poset P forms a supersolvable lattice, as suggested by Rota. Furthermore this lattice is dually isomorphic to the lattice of closed sets in a convex geometry (in the sense…

The lattice cluster theory (LCT) for semiflexible linear telechelic melts, developed in paper I, is applied to examine the influence of chain stiffness on the average degree of self-assembly and the basic thermodynamic properties of linear…

The LLT polynomials $\mathcal{L}_{\mathbf{\beta}/\mathbf{\gamma}} (X;t)$ are a family of symmetric polynomials indexed by a tuple of (possibly skew-)partitions $\mathbf{\beta}/\mathbf{\gamma}=…
