For a connected complex semi-simple Lie group $G$ and a fixed pair $(B, B^-)$ of opposite Borel subgroups of $G$, we determine when the intersection of a conjugacy class $C$ in $G$ and a double coset $BwB^-$ is non-empty, where $w$ is in…

We consider the convex subset $[A,B]$ of all elements between two levels $A$ and $B$ of a finite distributive lattice, as a union of (or covered by) intervals $[a,b]$. A 1988 result of Voigt and Wegener shows that for such convex subsets of…

A de Branges space $\mathcal B$ is regular if the constants belong to its space of associated functions and is symmetric if it is isometrically invariant under the map $F(z) \mapsto F(-z)$. Let $K_\mathcal{B}(z,w)$ be the reproducing kernel…

Let n be a positive integer greater than or equal to 2, and q a complex number, transcendental over Q. In this paper, we give an algorithmic construction of an ordered bijection between the set of H-primes of n \times n quantum matrices and…

New heterotic modular invariants are found using the level-rank duality of affine Kac-Moody algebras. They provide strong evidence for the consistency of an infinite list of heterotic Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) conformal field theories. We…

Using the notion of series parallel interval order, we propose a unified setting to describe Dyck lattices and Tamari lattices (two well known lattice structures on Catalan objects) in terms of basic notions of the theory of posets. As a…

For a symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebra the category of admissible representations is an analogue of the category of finite dimensional representations of a semisimple Lie algebra. The monoid associated to this category and the category of…

Let $G$ be a group with identity element $e$, and suppose that $S$ is an associative $G$-graded ring that is not necessarily unital. In the case where $G$ is an ordered group, we show that a graded ideal is prime if and only if it is graded…

A permutation $\sigma$ describing the relative orders of the first $n$ iterates of a point $x$ under a self-map $f$ of the interval $I=[0,1]$ is called an \emph{order pattern}. For fixed $f$ and $n$, measuring the points $x\in I$ (according…

Given a 6-dimensional complex vector space $W$, we consider linear systems of skew-symmetric forms on W. The $n$-dimensional linear systems this kind, that can also be interpreted as $n$-dimensional linear subspaces of…

The combinatorial invariance conjecture (due independently to G. Lusztig and M. Dyer) predicts that if $[x,y]$ and $[x',y']$ are isomorphic Bruhat posets (of possibly different Coxeter systems), then the corresponding Kazhdan-Lusztig…

The consecutive pattern poset is the infinite partially ordered set of all permutations where $\sigma\le\tau$ if $\tau$ has a subsequence of adjacent entries in the same relative order as the entries of $\sigma$. We study the structure of…

We show that the set of $m \times m$ complex skew-symmetric matrix polynomials of even grade $d$, i.e., of degree at most $d$, and (normal) rank at most $2r$ is the closure of the single set of matrix polynomials with certain, explicitly…

The (strong) Bruhat order for permutations provides a partial ordering defined as follows: two permutations are comparable if one can be obtained from the other by a sequence of adjacent transpositions that each increase the number of…

We illuminate the relation between the Bruhat order on the symmetric group and structure constants (Littlewood-Richardson coefficients) for the cohomology of the flag manifold in terms of its basis of Schubert classes. Equivalently, the…

The study of pattern avoidance in linear permutations has been an active area of research for almost half a century now, starting with the work of Knuth in 1973. More recently, the question of pattern avoidance in circular permutations has…

We investigate a family of relational systems arising from interval partitions of $\omega$, inspired by Vojt\'a\v{s}'s characterization of the bounding and dominating numbers. By varying the underlying asymptotic quantifiers and interval…

We use the theory of symmetric functions to enumerate various classes of alternating permutations w of {1,2,...,n}. These classes include the following: (1) both w and w^{-1} are alternating, (2) w has certain special shapes, such as…

A set of all symmetric Banach function spaces defined on [0,1] is equipped with the partial order by the relation of continuous inclusion. Properties of symmetric spaces, which do not depend of their position in the ordered structure, are…

The Bruhat order on a Coxeter group is often described by examining subexpressions of a reduced expression. We prove that an analogous description applies to the Bruhat order on double cosets. This establishes the compatibility of the…
