We construct discrete analogues of the Dixmier operators, that is, commuting difference operators corresponding to a spectral curve of genus 1 whose coefficients are polynomials of the discrete variable.

We build an explicit link between coherent functors in the sense of Auslander and strict polynomial functors in the sense of Friedlander and Suslin. Applications to functor cohomology are discussed.

Functions like the exponential, Chebyshev polynomials, and monomial symmetric polynomials are preeminent among all special functions. They have simple definitions and can be expressed using easily specified integers like n!. Families of…

An infinite family of Boolean polynomials which correspond to the discrete average maps, defined in [2], is constructed and their algebraic and combinatorial properties are investigated. They turn out to be balanced, and some recurrence…

A bivariant functor is defined on a category of *-algebras and a category of operator ideals, both with actions of a second countable group $G$, into the category of abelian monoids. The element of the bivariant functor will be…

For a covariant functor W. Fulton and R. MacPherson defined \emph{an operational bivariant theory} associated to this covariant functor. In this paper we will show that given a contravariant functor one can similarly construct a ``dual"…

The double-direction orthogonalization algorithm is applied to construct sequences of polynomials, which are orthogonal over the interval [0,1]with the weighting function 1. Functional and recurrent relations are derived for the sequences…

In a recent paper the authors studied the denominators of polynomials that represent power sums by Bernoulli's formula. Here we extend our results to power sums of arithmetic progressions. In particular, we obtain a simple explicit…

We study a family of bivariate orthogonal polynomials associated to the deltoid curve. These polynomials arise when classifying bivariate diffusion operators that have discrete spectral decomposition given by orthogonal polynomials with…

In the first part of this expository paper, we present and discuss the interplay of Dirichlet polynomials in some classical problems of number theory, notably the Lindel\"of Hypothesis. We review some typical properties of their means and…

A correspondence functor is a functor from the category of finite sets and correspondences to the category of k-modules, where k is a commu-tative ring. A main tool for this study is the construction of a correspondence functor associated…

A correspondence functor is a functor from the category of finite sets and correspondences to the category of $k$-modules, where $k$ is a commutative ring. We determine exactly which simple correspondence functors are projective. Moreover,…

The Dirichlet divisor problem is used as a model to give a conjecture concerning the conditional convergence of the Dirichlet series of an L-function.

The concept of a composed product for univariate polynomials has been explored extensively by Brawley, Brown, Carlitz, Gao, Mills, et al. Starting with these fundamental ideas and utilizing fractional power series representation (in…

We study the Dickson polynomials of the (k+1)-th kind over the field of complex numbers. We show that they are a family of co-recursive orthogonal polynomials with respect to a quasi-definite moment functional L_{k}. We find an integral…

We derive raising and lowering operators for orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle and find second order differential and $q$-difference equations for these polynomials. A general functional equation is found which allows one to relate…

There is a commutative algebra of differential-difference operators, with two parameters, associated to any dihedral group with an even number of reflections. The intertwining operator relates this algebra to the algebra of partial…

Dold-Thom functors are generalizations of infinite symmetric products, where integer multiplicities of points are replaced by composable elements of a partial abelian monoid. It is well-known that for any connective homology theory, the…

In the context of infinity categories, we rethink the notion of derived functor in terms of correspondences. This is especially convenient for the description of a passage from an adjoint pair (F,G) of functors to a derived adjoint pair…
