Via correspondence theorems, rational log Gromov--Witten invariants of the plane can be computed in terms of tropical geometry. For many cases, there exists a range of algorithms to compute tropically: for instance, there are (generalized)…
This paper develops matroidal analogues of classical results on matchings in abelian groups. By embedding matroid ground sets in an abelian group, we introduce base matchings between matroid bases, recover the group-theoretic setting in the…
This article is a survey of matroid theory aimed at algebraic geometers. Matroids are combinatorial abstractions of linear subspaces and hyperplane arrangements. Not all matroids come from linear subspaces; those that do are said to be…
Recently, the so-called Hermite-Hadamard inequality for (operator) convex functions with one variable has known extensive several developments by virtue of its nice properties and various applications. The fundamental target of this paper…
It is known when we call a poset P, a $\mathcal{P}$-chain permutational poset, given a subset of permutations $\mathcal{P}$ of the symmetric group $S_{n}$. In this work, we use the same idea to study subsets of words of length $n$, that are…
We associate to every matroid M a polynomial with integer coefficients, which we call the Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial of M, in analogy with Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials in representation theory. We conjecture that the coefficients are always…
We give new proofs of MacMahon and Russell's modulo 6 identities using the method of weighted words. We also present a new refinement of MacMahon's identity, some related finite sum identities, and a companion partition theorem to sequence…
We give an explicit combinatorial proof of a weighted version of strong log-concavity for the generating polynomial of increasing spanning forests of a finite simple graph equipped with a total ordering of the vertices. In contrast to…
We study different extended formulations for the set $X = \{x\in\mathbb{Z}^n \mid Ax = Ax^0\}$ in order to tackle the feasibility problem for the set $X_+=X \cap \mathbb{Z}^n_+$. Here the goal is not to find an improved polyhedral…
Unsupervised word embeddings have been shown to be valuable as features in supervised learning problems; however, their role in unsupervised problems has been less thoroughly explored. In this paper, we show that embeddings can likewise add…
This paper explores the space of (propositional) probabilistic logical languages, ranging from a purely `qualitative' comparative language to a highly `quantitative' language involving arbitrary polynomials over probability terms. While…
In the general context of presentations of monoids, we study normalisation processes that are determined by their restriction to length-two words. Garside's greedy normal forms and quadratic convergent rewriting systems, in particular those…
As part of the author's studies on equational reasoning for monadic programs, this report focus on non-determinism monad. We discuss what properties this monad should satisfy, what additional operators and notations can be introduced to…
The Platonic Representation Hypothesis posits that learned representations from models trained on different modalities converge to a shared latent structure of the world. However, this hypothesis has largely been examined in vision and…
We consider learning a convex combination of basis models, and present some new theoretical and empirical results that demonstrate the effectiveness of a greedy approach. Theoretically, we first consider whether we can use linear, instead…
Let $G$ be an almost simple simply connected complex Lie group, and let $G/U_-$ be its base affine space. In this paper we formulate a conjecture, which provides a new geometric interpretation of the Macdonald polynomials associated to $G$…
Reynold's parametricity theory captures the property that parametrically polymorphic functions behave uniformly: they produce related results on related instantiations. In dependently-typed programming languages, such relations and…
We present an untyped linear lambda calculus with braids, the corresponding combinatory logic, and the semantic models given by crossed G-sets.
Tractability results for the model checking problem of logics yield powerful algorithmic meta theorems of the form: Every computational problem expressible in a logic $L$ can be solved efficiently on every class $\mathscr{C}$ of structures…
This paper develops an algorithmic-based approach for proving inductive properties of propositional sequent systems such as admissibility, invertibility, cut-elimination, and identity expansion. Although undecidable in general, these…
