Jerrum, Sinclair and Vigoda (2004) showed that the permanent of any square matrix can be estimated in polynomial time. This computation can be viewed as approximating the partition function of edge-weighted matchings in a bipartite graph.…
This paper investigates the independence polynomials arising from iterated strong products of cycle graphs, examining their algebraic symmetries and combinatorial structures. Leveraging modular arithmetic and Galois theory, we establish…
In this paper, we first present combinatorial proofs of a kind of expansions of the Eulerian polynomials of types A and B, and then we introduce Stirling permutations of the second kind. In particular, we count Stirling permutations of the…
A $d$-{\em interval} is a union of at most $d$ disjoint closed intervals on a fixed line. Tardos [Combinatorica 15 (1995), 123-134] and the second author [Disc. Comput. Geom. 18 (1997), 195-203] used topological tools to bound the…
We introduce a family of rings of symmetric functions depending on an infinite sequence of parameters. A distinguished basis of such a ring is comprised by analogues of the Schur functions. The corresponding structure coefficients are…
A graph $G$ with a perfect matching is called saturated if $G+e$ has more perfect matchings than $G$ for any edge $e$ that is not in $G$. Lov\'asz gave a characterization of the saturated graphs called the cathedral theorem, with some…
We revisit the computation, due to Hesselholt and Madsen, of the K-theory of truncated polynomial algebras for perfect fields of positive characteristic. The resulting K-groups are expressed in terms of big Witt vectors of the field. The…
Gaussian polynomial, which is also known as $q$-binomial coefficient, is one of the fundamental concepts in the theory of partitions. Zeilberger provided a combinatorial proof of Gaussian polynomial, which is called Algorithm Z by Andrews…
We prove finiteness results on integral points on complements of large divisors in projective varieties over finitely generated fields of characteristic zero. To do so, we prove a function field analogue of arithmetic finiteness results of…
In this paper, we prove the following non-linear generalization of the classical Sylvester-Gallai theorem. Let $\mathbb{K}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$, and $\mathcal{F}=\{F_1,\cdots,F_m\} \subset…
In this contribution we deal with Gaussian quadrature rules based on orthogonal polynomials associated with a weight function $w(x)= x^{\alpha} e^{-x}$ supported on an interval $(0,z)$, $z>0.$ The modified Chebyshev algorithm is used in…
We investigate a variation of $q$-Wolstenholme's theorem, which extends the $q$-analogue of Wolstenholme's theorem due to Shi and Pan [Amer. Math. Monthly 114 (2007), 529--531]. The proof makes use of the Ramanujan sum and higher order…
In a previous paper, the author gave a combinatorial proof and refinement of Siladi\'c's theorem, a Rogers-Ramanujan type partition identity arising from the study of Lie algebras. Here we use the basic idea of the method of weighted words…
This work studies the complexity of refuting the existence of a perfect matching in spectral expanders with an odd number of vertices, in the Polynomial Calculus (PC) and Sum of Squares (SoS) proof system. Austrin and Risse [SODA, 2021]…
Following the methods used by Derksen-Weyman in \cite{DW11} and Chindris in \cite{Chi08}, we use quiver theory to represent the generalized Littlewood-Richardson coefficients for the branching rule for the diagonal embedding of $\gl(n)$ as…
In this paper, by the generalized Bell umbra and Rolle's theorem, we give some results on the real rootedness of polynomials. Some applications on partition polynomials and the sigma polynomials of graphs are given.
We use tools of additive combinatorics for the study of subvarieties defined by {\it high rank} families of polynomials in high dimensional $\mathbb{F} _q$-vector spaces. In the first, analytic part of the paper we prove a number properties…
Recently, Chmutov proved that the partial-dual polynomial considered as a function on chord diagrams satisfies the four-term relation. Deng et al. then proved that this function on framed chord diagrams also satisfies the four-term…
The correspondence between the braid group on a solid torus of arbitrary genus and the algebra of Yang-Baxter and reflection equation operators is shown. A representation of this braid group in terms of $R$-matrices is given. The…
We prove a complex polynomial plank covering theorem for not necessarily homogeneous polynomials. As the consequence of this result, we extend the complex plank theorem of Ball to the case of planks that are not necessarily centrally…
