We propose the formulation of a dihadron fragmentation function in terms of parton matrix elements. Under the collinear factorization approximation and facilitated by the cut-vertex technique, the two hadron inclusive cross section at…
The equations of motion of a single particle subject to an arbitrary electric and a static magnetic field form a Poisson system. We present a second-order time integration method which preserves well the Poisson structure and compare it to…
Matroidal entropy functions are entropy functions in the form $\mathbf{h} = \log v \cdot \mathbf{r}_M$ , where $v \ge 2$ is an integer and $\mathbf{r}_M$ is the rank function of a matroid $M$. They can be applied into capacity…
The description of electron current through a splitting is a mathematical problem of electron transport in quantum networks. For quantum networks constructed on the interface of narrow-gap semiconductors the relevant scattering problem for…
The splitting-off operation in undirected graphs is a fundamental reduction operation that detaches all edges incident to a given vertex and adds new edges between the neighbors of that vertex while preserving their degrees. Lov\'asz (1974)…
In [27], we provided results on the $p$-modulus of the family of all bases of matroids and showed that it recovers various concepts in matroid theory, including strength, fractional arboricity, and principal partitions. In particular, the…
For a matroid with an ordered (or "labelled") basis, a basis exchange step removes one element with label $l$ and replaces it by a new element that results in a new basis, and with the new element assigned label $l$. We prove that one…
This paper studies optimal matroid partitioning problems for various objective functions. In the problem, we are given a finite set $E$ and $k$ weighted matroids $(E, \mathcal{I}_i, w_i)$, $i = 1, \dots, k$, and our task is to find a…
Homogeneous matroids are characterized by the property that strength equals fractional arboricity, and arise in the study of base modulus [22]. For graphic matroids, Cunningham [9] provided efficient algorithms for calculating graph…
We introduce a new axiomatization of matroid theory that requires the elimination property only among modular pairs of circuits, and we present a cryptomorphic phrasing thereof in terms of Crapo's axioms for flats. This new point of view…
A split of a polytope $P$ is a (regular) subdivision with exactly two maximal cells. It turns out that each weight function on the vertices of $P$ admits a unique decomposition as a linear combination of weight functions corresponding to…
The active bijection for oriented matroids (and real hyperplane arrangements, and graphs, as particular cases) is introduced and investigated by the authors in a series of papers. Given any oriented matroid defined on a linearly ordered…
Let $M$ be a $3$-connected binary matroid; $M$ is called internally $4$-connected if one side of every $3$-separation is a triangle or a triad, and $M$ is $(4,4,S)$-connected if one side of every $3$-separation is a triangle, a triad, or a…
We study arrangements of slightly skewed tropical hyperplanes, called blades by A. Ocneanu, on the vertices of a hypersimplex $\Delta_{k,n}$, and we investigate the resulting induced polytopal subdivisions. We show that placing a blade on a…
Brylawski and Seymour independently proved that if $M$ is a connected matroid with a connected minor $N$, and $e \in E(M) - E(N)$, then $M \backslash e$ or $M / e$ is connected having $N$ as a minor. This paper proves an analogous but…
Within the context of FSSH dynamics, one often wishes to remove the angular component of the derivative coupling between states $\left|J\right>$ and $\left|K\right>$. In a set of previous papers, Truhlar {\em et al.} posited one approach…
We study the effect of a splitting operator S_t on the L^p norm of the Fourier transform of a function f and on the operator norm of a Fourier multiplier m. Most of our results assume p is an even integer, and are often stronger when f or m…
Using the coherent state formalism we calculate matrix elements of the one-loop non-planar dilatation operator of ${\cal N}=4$ SYM between operators dual to folded Frolov-Tseytlin strings and observe a curious scaling behavior. We comment…
A partitioned matroid $(M, \{X_1,X_2,\dots,X_n\})$ consists of a matroid $M$ and a partition $\{X_1,X_2,\dots,X_n\}$ of its ground set. As such structures arise frequently in structural matroid theory, this paper introduces a general…
We propose a splitting algorithm for solving a system of composite monotone inclusions formulated in the form of the extended set of solutions in real Hilbert spaces. The resluting algorithm is a an extension of the algorithm in [4]. The…
