We construct Hadamard matrices of orders 4x251 = 1004 and 4x631 = 2524, and skew-Hadamard matrices of orders 4x213 = 852 and 4x631 = 2524. As far as we know, such matrices have not been constructed previously. The constructions use the…

We develop a combinatorial approach to the quantum permutation algebras, as Hopf images of representations of type $\pi:A_s(n)\to B(H)$. We discuss several general problems, including the commutativity and cocommutativity ones, the…

We construct minimal and irredundant generating sets for a family of submonoids of the monoid of $n \times n$ upper triangular matrices over a commutative semiring. We show that the monoid of $n \times n$ matrices over the tropical…

We study the geometry of a class of group extensions, containing permutational wreath products, which we call "permutational extensions". We construct for all natural number k a torsion group with growth function asymptotically…

We establish Hadamard-type inequalities for a class of symmetric matrices called $k$-positive matrices for which the $m$-th elementary symmetric functions of their eigenvalues are positive for all $m\leq k$. These matrices arise naturally…

We show that the generating series of Euler characteristics of Hilbert schemes of points on any algebraic surface with at worst $A_n$-type singularities is described by the theta series determined by integer valued positive definite…

Classically, a single weight on an interval of the real line leads to moments, orthogonal polynomials and tridiagonal matrices. Appropriately deforming this weight with times t=(t_1,t_2,...), leads to the standard Toda lattice and…

Let $1 \le m \le n$. We prove various results about the chessboard complex $M_{m,n}$, which is the simplicial complex of matchings in the complete bipartite graph $K_{m,n}$. First, we demonstrate that there is nonvanishing 3-torsion in…

Let $q$ be a prime power of the form $q=12c^2+4c+3$ with $c$ an arbitrary integer. In this paper we construct a difference family with parameters $(2q^2;q^2,q^2,q^2,q^2-1;2q^2-2)$ in ${\mathbb Z}_2\times ({\mathbb F}_{q^2},+)$. As a…

We consider the question of the largest possible combinatorial diameter among $(d-1)$-dimensional simplicial complexes on $n$ vertices, denoted $H_s(n, d)$. Using a probabilistic construction we give a new lower bound on $H_s(n, d)$ that is…

What is the dimension of a smooth family of complex Hadamard matrices including the Fourier matrix? We address this problem with a power series expansion. Studying all dimensions up to 100 we find that the first order result is misleading…

Recently, Mertens, Ono, and the third author studied mock modular analogues of Eisenstein series. Their coefficients are given by small divisor functions, and have shadows given by classical Shimura theta functions. Here, we construct a…

Suppose $X$ is a smooth, proper, geometrically connected curve over $\mathbb F_q$ with an $\mathbb F_q$-rational point $x_0$. For any $\mathbb F_q^{\times}$-character $\sigma$ of $\pi_1(X)$ trivial on $x_0$, we construct a functor $\mathbb…

We construct a family of PL triangulations of the $d$-dimensional real projective space $\mathbb{R}P^d$ on $\Theta((\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2})^{d+1})$ vertices for every $d\geq 1$. This improves a construction due to K\"{u}hnel on $2^{d+1}-1$…

Using the ideas of concatenation construction of codes over the $q$-ary alphabet, we modify the known generalized Sylvester-type construction of the Hadamard matrices. The new construction is based on two collections of the Hadamard…

We study statistical models, specifically transfer matrices corresponding to a multiparameter hierarchy of braid matrices of $(2n)^2\times(2n)^2$ dimensions with $2n^2$ free parameters $(n=1,2,3,...)$. The simplest, $4\times 4$ case is…

We give a procedure for constructing an $8n$-dimensional HKT Lie algebra starting from a $4n$-dimensional one by using a quaternionic representation of the latter. The strong (respectively, weak, hyper-K\"ahler, balanced) condition is…

Let the complex reflection group $G(m,p,n)$ act on the unit polydisc $\mathbb D^n$ in $\mathbb C^n.$ A $\boldsymbol\Theta_n$-contraction is a commuting tuple of operators on a Hilbert space having…

Butson matrices are square orthogonal matrices, denoted by $BH(m,n)$, whose entries are the complex $m$th roots of unity and satisfy the condition\\ $BH(m,n)\cdot{BH(m,n)}^*=nI_n$, where ${BH(m,n)}^*$ is the conjugate transpose of $BH(m,n)$…

We establish new transformation formulas involving theta functions and certain bilateral basic hypergeometric series. From these formulas, we construct companion $q$-series for a class of $q$-series such that the asymptotic expansion of…
