An ordered set partition of $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ is a partition with an ordering on the parts. Let $\mathcal{OP}_{n,k}$ be the set of ordered set partitions of $[n]$ with $k$ blocks. Godbole, Goyt, Herdan and Pudwell defined…

For any positive integer $N$, we describe a natural complex representation of the symmetric group $\Sigma_N$ on the vector space spanned by its involutions that contains each irreducible representation exactly once.

A permutation $\sigma$ of a multiset is called Stirling permutation if $\sigma(s)\ge \sigma(i)$ as soon as $\sigma(i)=\sigma(j)$ and $i<s<j.$ In our paper we study Stirling polynomials that arise in the generating function for descent…

Let $\alpha(n)$ denote the number of perfect square permutations in the symmetric group $S_n$. The conjecture $\alpha(2n+1) = (2n+1) \alpha(2n)$, provided by Stanley[4], was proved by Blum[1] using a generating function. This paper presents…

We show that any smooth permutation $\sigma\in S_n$ is characterized by the set ${\mathbf{C}}(\sigma)$ of transpositions and $3$-cycles in the Bruhat interval $(S_n)_{\leq\sigma}$, and that $\sigma$ is the product (in a certain order) of…

The paper deals with $\Sigma-$composition and $\Sigma$-essential composition of terms, which lead to stable and s-stable varieties of algebras. A full description of all stable varieties of semigroups, commutative and idempotent groupoids…

We continue the study of the AMNM property for weighted semilattices that was initiated in [Y. Choi, J. Austral. Math. Soc. 95 (2013), no. 1, 36-67; arXiv 1203.6691]. We reformulate this in terms of stability of filters with respect to a…

We characterize charmenability among arithmetic groups and deduce dichotomy statements pertaining normal subgroups, characters, dynamics, representations and associated operator algebras. We do this by studying the stationary dynamics on…

The character table of the symmetric group $S_n$, of permutations of $n$ objects, is of fundamental interest in theoretical physics, combinatorics as well as computational complexity theory. We investigate the implications of an identity,…

We show that stationary characters on irreducible lattices $\Gamma < G$ of higher-rank connected semisimple Lie groups are conjugation invariant, that is, they are genuine characters. This result has several applications in representation…

In the theory of the moduli-stacks of n-pointed stable curves, there are two fundamental functors, contraction and stabilization. These functors are constructed in [4], where they are used to show that the various \bar{M_{g,n}}'s are…

We characterise subcategories of semistable modules for noncommutative minimal models of compound Du Val singularities, including the non-isolated case. We find that the stability is controlled by an infinite polyhedral fan that stems from…

We prove a result on the asymptotic proportion of randomly chosen pairs of permutations in the symmetric group $S_n$ which "invariably" generate a nonsolvable subgroup, i.e., whose cycle structures cannot possibly both occur in the same…

We consider two related problems arising from a question of R. Graham on quasirandom phenomena in permutation patterns. A ``pattern'' in a permutation $\sigma$ is the order type of the restriction of $\sigma : [n] \to [n]$ to a subset $S…

For a fixed algebraic variety $X$, curve class $\alpha \in N_1(X)$, and genus $g \in \mathbb N$, we consider the sequence of $S_n$ representations obtained from the homology of the Kontsevich space of stable maps to $X$, $\bar…

Let u be a word over the positive integers P. Motivated by a question involving crystal graphs, Sagan and Wilson initiated the study of the centralizer of u in the plactic monoid which is the set C(u) = {w | uw is Knuth equivalent to wu}.…

We initiate a quantitative study of Hilbert-Schmidt stability for infinitely presented groups through the novel notion of stability radius growth. We exhibit an uncountable family of Hilbert-Schmidt stable amenable groups with arbitrarily…

We investigate a family of distributions having a property of stability-under-addition, provided that the number $\nu$ of added-up random variables in the random sum is also a random variable. We call the corresponding property a…

We study the character theory of metabelian and polycyclic groups. It is used to investigate Hilbert-Schmidt stability via the character-theoretic criterion of Hadwin and Shulman. There is a close connection between stability and dynamics…

Fix a positive integer $d$ and let $\Gamma_d$ be the class of finite groups without sections isomorphic to the alternating group $A_d$. The groups in $\Gamma_d$ were studied by Babai, Cameron and P\'{a}lfy in the 1980s and they determined…
