Two well-known distributions in the study of permutation statistics are the Mahonian and Eulerian distributions. Mahonian statistics include the major index MAJ and the number of inversions INV, while examples of Eulerian statistics are the…
We define a new family of generalized Stirling permutations that can be interpreted in terms of ordered trees and forests. We prove that the number of generalized Stirling permutations with a fixed number of ascents is given by a natural…
The $q$-analogue of the binomial coefficient, known as a $q$-binomial coefficient, is typically denoted $\left[{n \atop k}\right]_q$. These polynomials are important combinatorial objects, often appearing in generating functions related to…
We present new proofs for some summation identities involving Stirling numbers of both first and second kind. The two main identities show a connection between Stirling numbers and Bessel numbers. Our method is based on solving a particular…
Let $q$ be a positive integer. In our recent paper, we proved that the cardinality of the complement of an integral arrangement, after the modulo $q$ reduction, is a quasi-polynomial of $q$, which we call the characteristic…

We describe the formalisation in Coq of a proof that the numbers e and $\pi$ are transcendental. This proof lies at the interface of two domains of mathematics that are often considered separately: calculus (real and elementary complex…
Stationary subdivision schemes have been extensively studied and have numerous applications in CAGD and wavelet analysis. To have high-order smoothness of the scheme, it is usually inevitable to enlarge the support of the mask that is used,…
Given a permutation statistic $\operatorname{st}$, define its inverse statistic $\operatorname{ist}$ by $\operatorname{ist}(\pi):=\operatorname{st}(\pi^{-1})$. We give a general approach, based on the theory of symmetric functions, for…
We introduce a family of quasisymmetric functions called {\em Eulerian quasisymmetric functions}, which have the property of specializing to enumerators for the joint distribution of the permutation statistics, major index and excedance…
The alternating descent statistic on permutations was introduced by Chebikin as a variant of the descent statistic. We show that the alternating descent polynomials on permutations are unimodal via a five-term recurrence relation. We also…
We study the ring of quasisymmetric polynomials in $n$ anticommuting (fermionic) variables. Let $R_n$ denote the polynomials in $n$ anticommuting variables. The main results of this paper show the following interesting facts about…
In this article, we study properties of the exponential Hilbert series of a $G$-equivariant projective variety, where $G$ is a semisimple, simply-connected complex linear algebraic group. We prove a relationship between the exponential…
This paper studies Symmetric Determinantal Representations (SDR) in characteristic 2, that is the representation of a multivariate polynomial P by a symmetric matrix M such that P=det(M), and where each entry of M is either a constant or a…
We consider estimating the parametric components of semi-parametric multiple index models in a high-dimensional and non-Gaussian setting. Such models form a rich class of non-linear models with applications to signal processing, machine…
In this paper, we derive basic identities of symmetry in two variables related to higher-order q-Euler polynomials and q-analogue of higher order alternating power sums. The derivation of identities are based on the multibvariate p-adic…
Define the minimal excludant of an overpartition $\pi$, denoted $ \overline{\text{mex}}(\pi)$, to be the smallest positive integer that is not a part of the non-overlined parts of $\pi$. For a positive integer $n$, the function…
We study algebras satisfying a two-term multilinear identity, namely one of the form $x_1 \cdots x_n= q x_{\sigma(1)} \cdots x_{\sigma(n)}$, where $q$ is a parameter from the base field. We show that such algebras with $q=1$ and $\sigma$…
We construct a non-commutative, non-cocommutative, graded bialgebra $\mathbf{\Pi}$ with a basis indexed by the permutations in all finite symmetric groups. Unlike the formally similar Malvenuto-Poirier-Reutenauer Hopf algebra, this…
Let $P=\{p_{1},\ld,p_{r}\}\subset\Q[n_{1},\ld,n_{m}]$ be a family of polynomials such that $p_{i}(\Z^{m})\sle\Z$, $i=1,\ld,r$. We say that the family $P$ has {\it PSZ property} if for any set $E\sle\Z$ with…
