The Leigh-Strassler family of N=1 marginal deformations of the N=4 SYM theory admits a Hopf algebra symmetry which is a quantum group deformation of the SU(3) part of the R-symmetry of the Ncal=4 theory. We investigate how this quantum…

We consider the Minimum-$(k,\rho)$-$\mathrm{Shortcut}$ problem ($\min(k,\rho)\text{-}\mathrm{Shortcut}$), where the goal is to find the smallest set of shortcut edges such that every vertex in a given graph can reach its $\rho$ closest…

We construct the Schubert basis of the torus-equivariant K-homology of the affine Grassmannian of a simple algebraic group G, using the K-theoretic NilHecke ring of Kostant and Kumar. This is the K-theoretic analogue of a construction of…

A hitting-set generator (HSG) is a polynomial map $G:\mathbb{F}^k \to \mathbb{F}^n$ such that for all $n$-variate polynomials $C$ of small enough circuit size and degree, if $C$ is nonzero, then $C\circ G$ is nonzero. In this paper, we give…
