A lattice path inside the $m\times n$ table $T$ is a sequence $\nu_1,\ldots,\nu_k$ of cells such that $\nu_{j+1}-\nu_j\in\{(1,-1),(1,0),(1,1)\}$ for all $j=1,\ldots,k-1$. The number of lattice paths in $T$ from the first column to the…
We provide a new strategy to compute the exponential growth constant of enumeration sequences counting walks in lattice path models restricted to the quarter plane. The bounds arise by comparison with half-planes models. In many cases the…
We provide an elementary proof of a formula for the number of northeast lattice paths that lie in a certain region of the plane. Equivalently, this formula counts the lattice points inside the Pitman--Stanley polytope of an n-tuple.
We give asymptotic formulas for the multiplicities of weights and irreducible summands in high-tensor powers $V_{\lambda}^{\otimes N}$ of an irreducible representation $V_{\lambda}$ of a compact connected Lie group $G$. The weights are…
Efficient deterministic algorithms to construct representations of lattice path matroids over finite fields are presented. They are built on known constructions of hierarchical secret sharing schemes, a recent characterization of…
For $\ell \geq 1$ and $k \geq 2$, we consider certain admissible sequences of $k-1$ lattice paths in a colored $\ell \times \ell$ square. We show that the number of such admissible sequences of lattice paths is given by the sum of squares…
We count a large class of lattice paths by using factorizations of free monoids. Besides the classical lattice paths counting problems related to Catalan numbers, we give a new approach to the problem of counting walks on the slit plane…
A variety of boundary value problems in linear transport theory are expressed as a diffusion equation of the two-way, or forward-backward, type. In such problems boundary data are specified only on part of the boundary, which introduces…
The parametric lattice-point counting problem is as follows: Given an integer matrix $A \in Z^{m \times n}$, compute an explicit formula parameterized by $b \in R^m$ that determines the number of integer points in the polyhedron $\{x \in…
Carrier-grade networks comprise several layers where different protocols coexist. Nowadays, most of these networks have different control planes to manage routing on different layers, leading to a suboptimal use of the network resources and…
We deduce Narayana's formula for the number of lattice paths that fit in a Young diagram as a direct consequence of the Gessel-Viennot theorem on non-intersecting lattice paths.
In this paper, I derive a generating function for discrete Motzkin paths of step size +2,+1,-1, restricted between two absorbing parallel lines, and generalized to arbitrary step weights. This continues off work of similar problems…
Motzkin paths are simple yet important combinatorial objects. In this paper, we consider families of Motzkin paths with restrictions on peak heights, valley heights, upward-run lengths, downward-run lengths, and flat-run lengths. This paper…
In queuing theory, it is usual to have some models with a "reset" of the queue. In terms of lattice paths, it is like having the possibility of jumping from any altitude to zero. These objects have the interesting feature that they do not…
Computing a (short) path between two vertices is one of the most fundamental primitives in graph algorithmics. In recent years, the study of paths in temporal graphs, that is, graphs where the vertex set is fixed but the edge set changes…
In this paper we studied infinite weighted automata and a general methodology to solve a wide variety of classical lattice path counting problems in an uniform way. This counting problems are related to Dyck paths, Motzkin paths and some…
A filtration of a representation whose successive quotients are isomorphic to Demazure modules is called an excellent filtration. In this paper we study graded multiplicities in excellent filtrations of fusion products for the current…
Recent work of the author connected several parking function enumeration problems to enumerations of Catalan paths with respect to certain weight functions that are expressed in terms of the ascent lengths. Motivated by this, we generalise…
In this paper, we enumerate lattice paths with certain constraints and apply the corresponding results to develop formulas for calculating the dimensions of submodules of a class of modules for planar upper triangular rook monoids. In…
We propose an experimental mathematics approach leading to the computer-driven discovery of various structural properties of general counting functions coming from enumeration of walks.
