Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and $n\geq1$ be an integer. Let $R^{n}=R\times\cdots\times R~(n~times)$. The \textit{total dot product} graph, denoted by $TD(R,n)$ is a simple graph with elements of $R^{n}-\{(0,0,\ldots,0)\}$ as…

A subspace $U$ of $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ is called \textit{cyclically covering} if the whole space $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ is the union of the cyclic shifts of $U$. The case $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ itself is the only covering subspace, is of particular…

We prove an identity conjectured by Adin and Roichman involving the descent set of $\lambda$-unimodal cyclic permutations. These permutations appear in formulas for characters of certain representations of the symmetric group. Such formulas…

$n$-cycle permutations with small $n$ have the advantage that their compositional inverses are efficient in terms of implementation. They can be also used in constructing Bent functions and designing codes. Since the AGW Criterion was…

We prove a general result concerning cyclic orderings of the elements of a matroid. For each matroid $M$, weight function $\omega:E(M)\rightarrow\mathbb{N}$, and positive integer $D$, the following are equivalent. (1) For all $A\subseteq…

The purpose of this paper is to present the structure of the linear codes over a finite field with q elements that have a permutation automorphism of order m. These codes can be considered as generalized quasi-cyclic codes. Quasi-cyclic…

A matroid M is cyclically orderable if there is a cyclic permutation of the elements of M such that any r consecutive elements form a basis in M. An old conjecture of Kajitani, Miyano, and Ueno states that a matroid M is cyclically…

We show that the spectral set conjecture by Fuglede holds in the setting of cyclic groups of order $p^n q$, where $p$, $q$ are distinct primes and $n\geq1$. This means that a subset $E$ of such a group $G$ tiles the group by translation…

Let the symmetric functions be defined for the pair of integers $\left( n,r\right) $, $n\geq r\geq 1$, by $p_{n}^{\left( r\right) }=\sum m_{\lambda }$ where $m_{\lambda }$ are the monomial symmetric functions, the sum being over the…

Let F* be the field of q elements and let P(n,q) denote the projective space of dimension n-1 over F*. We construct a family H^{n}_{k,i} of combinatorial homology modules associated to P(n,q) for a coefficient field F of positive…

We consider the algebra $\square_q$ which is a mild generalization of the quantum algebra $U_q(\frak{sl}_2)$. The algebra $\square_q$ is defined by generators and relations. The generators are $\{x_i\}_{i\in \mathbb{Z}_4}$, where…

Let $(X, d)$ be a semimetric space. A permutation $\Phi$ of the set $X$ is a combinatorial self similarity of $(X, d)$ if there is a bijective function $f \colon d(X^2) \to d(X^2)$ such that $$ d(x, y) = f(d(\Phi(x), \Phi(y))) $$ for all…

In this article we consider the cycle structure of compositions of pairs of involutions in the symmetric group S_n chosen uniformly at random. These can be modeled as modified 2-regular graphs, giving rise to exponential generating…

For any field k and any integers m,n with 0 <= 2m <= n+1, let W_n be the k-vector space of sequences (x_0,...,x_n), and let H_m be the subset of W_n consisting of the sequences that satisfy a degree-m linear recursion, that is, for which…

Let $\mathbb F_q$ be a finite field, where $q$ is an odd prime power. Let $R=\mathbb{F}_q+u\mathbb{F}_q+v\mathbb{F}_q+uv\mathbb F_q$ with $u^2=u,v^2=v,uv=vu$. In this paper, we study the algebraic structure of $(\theta, \Theta)$-cyclic…

In this paper some properties of the irreducible multiplets of representation for the N = (p, q) - extended supersymmetry in one dimension are discussed. Essentially two results are here presented. At first a peculiar property of the one…

At the end of the 1960s, Knuth characterised the permutations that can be sorted using a stack in terms of forbidden patterns. He also showed that they are in bijection with Dyck paths and thus counted by the Catalan numbers. Subsequently,…

We consider the cycle structure of a random permutation $\sigma$ chosen uniformly from the symmetric group, subject to the constraint that $\sigma$ does not contain cycles of length exceeding $r.$ We prove that under suitable conditions the…
