We study the restriction to the symmetric group, $\mc{S}_n$ of the adjoint representation of $\mt{GL}_n(\C)$. We determine the irreducible constituents of the space of symmetric as well as the space of skew-symmetric $n\times n$ matrices as…

In this note we give several methods to construct nontrivial solutions to the equation $dy_{t}=\sigma(y_{t}) \, dx_{t}$, where $x$ is a $\gamma$-H\"older $R^{d}$-valued signal with $\gamma\in(1/2,1)$ and $\sigma$ is a function behaving like…

A class of generalized nonlinear Kolmogorov equations is investigated. We present the group classification of Lie symmetries of the class with respect to the group of equivalence transformations. We find a number of exact solutions of…

The branching theorem expresses irreducible character values for the symmetric group $S_n$ in terms of those for $S_{n-1}$, but it gives the values only at elements of $S_n$ having a fixed point. We extend the theorem by providing a…

We use the fact that certain cosets of the stabilizer of points are pairwise conjugate in a symmetric group $S_n$ in order to construct recurrence relations for enumerating certain subsets of $S_n$. Occasionally one can find `closed form'…

The $d$-Simultaneous Conjugacy problem in the symmetric group $S_n$ asks whether there exists a permutation $\tau \in S_n$ such that $b_j = \tau^{-1}a_j \tau$ holds for all $j = 1,2,\ldots, d$, where $a_1, a_2,\ldots , a_d$ and $b_1,…

This paper introduces the study of occurrence of symmetries in binary differential equations (BDEs). These are implicit differential equations given by the zeros of a quadratic 1-form, $a(x,y)dy^2 + b(x,y)dxdy + c(x,y)dx^2 = 0,$ for $a, b,…
