The inner distance of a Latin square was defined by myself and six others during an REU in the Summer of 2020 at Moravian College. Since then, I have been curious about its possible connections to other combinatorial mathematics. The inner…
Relational lattice is a formal mathematical model for Relational algebra. It reduces the set of six classic relational algebra operators to two: natural join and inner union. We continue to investigate Relational lattice properties with…
Relational lattice reduces the set of six classic relational algebra operators to two binary lattice operations: natural join and inner union. We give an introduction to this theory with emphasis on formal algebraic laws. New results…
In this paper we define an algorithm for rectifying one cell in a composition tableau. We then describe a generalization of this rectification process. The generalization is from one cell in the first column to any number of cells in the…
I discuss the use of path integrals to study strong-interaction physics from first principles. The underlying theory is cast into path integrals which are evaluated numerically using Monte Carlo methods on a space-time lattice. Examples are…
A vertical 2-sum of a two-coatom lattice $L$ and a two-atom lattice $U$ is obtained by removing the top of $L$ and the bottom of $U$, and identifying the coatoms of $L$ with the atoms of $U$. This operation creates one or two nonisomorphic…
The lattice cell in the ${i+1}^{st}$ row and ${j+1}^{st}$ column of the positive quadrant of the plane is denoted $(i,j)$. If $\mu$ is a partition of $n+1$, we denote by $\mu/ij$ the diagram obtained by removing the cell $(i,j)$ from the…
We present an algorithm for evaluating a linear ``intersection transform'' of a function defined on the lattice of subsets of an $n$-element set. In particular, the algorithm constructs an arithmetic circuit for evaluating the transform in…
The path integral of a quantum system with an exact symmetry can be written as a sum of functional integrals each giving the contribution from quantum states with definite symmetry properties. We propose a strategy to compute each of them,…
We present an exact formula for the ordinary generating series of the simple paths between any two vertices of a graph. Our formula involves the adjacency matrix of the connected induced subgraphs and remains valid on weighted and directed…
The coordination sequence s(k) of a graph counts the number of its vertices which have distance k from a given vertex, where the distance between two vertices is defined as the minimal number of bonds in any path connecting them. For a…
The traffic modelling often keeps the mesoscopic scale in the theoretical sphere because the integro-differential nature of its equations. In the present work we suggest to use the lattice Boltzmann method to overcome these difficulties. In…
A two-dimensional arrangement of toothpicks is constructed by the following iterative procedure. At stage 1, place a single toothpick of length 1 on a square grid, aligned with the y-axis. At each subsequent stage, for every exposed…
An arrangement of s elements in s rows and s columns, such that no element repeats more than once in each row and each column is called a Latin square of order s. If two Latin squares of the same order superimposed one on the other and in…
We enumerate lattice paths in the planar integer lattice consisting of positively directed unit vertical and horizontal steps with respect to a specific elliptic weight function. The elliptic generating function of paths from a given…
This paper studies structural aspects of lattice path matroids, a class of transversal matroids that is closed under taking minors and duals. Among the basic topics treated are direct sums, duals, minors, circuits, and connected flats. One…
Let ${\cal PO}_n$ be the semigroup of all order-preserving partial transformations of a finite chain. It is shown that there exist bijections between the set of certain lattice paths in the Cartesian plane that start at $(0,0)$, end at…
Linear lattice gauge theory is based on link variables that are arbitrary complex or real $N\times N$ matrices, in distinction to the usual (non-linear) formulation with unitary or orthogonal matrices. For a large region in parameter space…
We say a lattice point $X=(x_1,\ldots,x_m)$ is visible from the origin, if $\gcd(x_1,...,x_m)=1$. In other word, there are no other lattice point on the line segment from the origin $O$ to $X$. From J.E. Nymann's result, we know that the…
We exhibit a bijection between central Delannoy $n$-paths, that is, lattice paths from the origin to $(n,n)$ with steps $E=(1,0), \,N=(0,1),\,D=(1,1)$ and the lattice paths from the origin to $(n+1,n)$ where the only restriction on the…
