It is a remarkable fact that for many statistics on finite sets of combinatorial objects, the roots of the corresponding generating function are each either a complex root of unity or zero. These and related polynomials have been studied…
Let $F(x)= \sum_{\nu\in\NN^d} F_\nu x^\nu$ be a multivariate power series with complex coefficients that converges in a neighborhood of the origin. Assume $F=G/H$ for some functions $G$ and $H$ holomorphic in a neighborhood of the origin.…
In this paper, we consider two sets of pattern-avoiding ascent sequences: those avoiding both 201 and 210 and those avoiding 0021. In each case we show that the number of such ascent sequences is given by the binomial convolution of the…
We consider a bivariate rational generating function F(x,y) = P(x,y) / Q(x,y) = sum_{r, s} a_{r,s} x^r y^s under the assumption that the complex algebraic curve $\sing$ on which $Q$ vanishes is smooth. Formulae for the asymptotics of the…
We investigate depoissonization, the problem of recovering asymptotics of sequence coefficients from their exponential generating function. Classical approaches rely on complex-analytic growth conditions, but here we develop real-variable…
This paper develops a deeper understanding of the structure and combinatorial significance of the partition function for Hermitian random matrices. The coefficients of the large N expansion of the logarithm of this partition function,also…

The aim of this work is the study of the class of periodic parallelogram polyominoes, and two of its variantes. These objets are related to 321-avoiding affine permutations. We first provide a bijection with the set of triangles under Dyck…
We propose a new method for obtaining complete asymptotic expansions in a systematic manner, which is suitable for counting sequences of various graph families in dense regime. The core idea is to encode the two-dimensional array of…
We study enumeration functions for unimodal sequences of positive integers, where the size of a sequence is the sum of its terms. We survey known results for a number of natural variants of unimodal sequences, including Auluck's generalized…
Analytic combinatorics studies asymptotic properties of families of combinatorial objects using complex analysis on their generating functions. In their reference book on the subject, Flajolet and Sedgewick describe a general approach that…
In this paper, We study the asymptotics of the leading coefficients and the recurrence coefficients for the orthogonal polynomials with repect to the Laguerre weight with singularity of root type and jump type at the soft edge via the…
Ascent sequences of length $n$ avoiding the pattern $021$ are enumerated by the $n$-th Catalan number $C_n=\frac{1}{n+1}\binom{2n}{n}$. In this paper, we extend this result and enumerate ascent sequences avoiding $\{021,\tau\}$, where…
We find the exponential generating function for permutations with all valleys even and all peaks odd, and use it to determine the asymptotics for its coefficients, answering a question posed by Liviu Nicolaescu. The generating function can…
We study the asymptotic properties of monic orthogonal polynomials (OPs) with respect to some Freud weights when the degree of the polynomial tends to infinity, including the asymptotics of the recurrence coefficients, the nontrivial…
In this thesis, we consider the problem of characterizing and enumerating sets of polyominoes described in terms of some constraints, defined either by convexity or by pattern containment. We are interested in a well known subclass of…
We study the involutions belonging to the class of 321 avoiding permutations. We calculate the algebraic generating functions of the set containing the involutions avoiding 321 and of some of its subsets. Precisely we determine the…
This is an exposition of the theorem from the title, which says that the number of self-avoiding walks with n steps in the hexagonal lattice has asymptotics (2cos(pi/8))^{n+o(n)}. We lift the key identity to formal level and simplify the…
Starting from Montgomery's conjecture, there has been a substantial interest on the connections of random matrix theory and the theory of L-functions. In particular, moments of characteristic polynomials of random matrices have been…
