We discuss an interesting duality known to occur for certain complex reflection groups, namely the duality groups. Our main construction yields a concrete, representation theoretic realisation of this duality. This allows us to naturally…
Mutually unbiased bases that can be cyclically generated by a single unitary operator are of special interest, since they can be readily implemented in practice. We show that, for a system of qubits, finding such a generator can be cast as…
Anderson generating functions are generating series for division values of points on Drinfeld modules, and they serve as important tools for capturing periods, quasi-periods, and logarithms. They have been fundamental in recent work on…
In this paper we generalise the notion of Drinfeld modular form for the group $\Gamma$ := GL2(Fq[$\theta$]) to a vector-valued setting, where the target spaces are certain modules over positive characteristic Banach algebras over which are…
This thesis concerns the algebraic consequences of Freyd's Generating Hypothesis, and explores the question of whether there exists a self-injective ring R that can be constructed purely algebraically that exhibits some of the known…
We give two explicit sets of generators of the group of invertible regular functions over QQ on the modular curve Y1(N). The first set of generators is very surprising. It is essentially the set of defining equations of Y1(k) for k <= N/2…
We consider the determination of the number $c_k(\alpha)$ of ordered factorisations of an arbitrary permutation on n symbols, with cycle distribution $\alpha$, into k-cycles such that the factorisations have minimal length and such that the…
In this paper, we study the Euler-Seidel matrices with coefficients and determine the associated Riordan matrix to a given matrix, if it does exist. Computation of the generating fonction of the final sequence is established by the…
In this paper, we determine minimal generating sets for several well-known monoids of matrices over semirings. In particular, we find minimal generating sets for the monoids consisting of: all $n\times n$ boolean matrices when $n\leq 8$;…
We characterize in terms of inequalities the possible generalized singular numbers of a product AB of operators A and B having given generalized singular numbers, in an arbitrary finite von Neumann algebra. We also solve the analogous…
Theta series for lattices with indefinite signature $(n_+,n_-)$ arise in many areas of mathematics including representation theory and enumerative algebraic geometry. Their modular properties are well understood in the Lorentzian case…
We complete several generating functions to non-holomorphic modular forms in two variables. For instance, we consider the generating function of a natural family of meromorphic modular forms of weight two. We then show that this generating…
Algebras generated by strictly positive matrices are described up to similarity, including the commutative, simple, and semisimple cases. We provide sufficient conditions for some block diagonal matrix algebras to be generated by a set of…
A generating function of the number of homomorphisms from the fundamental group of a compact oriented or non-orientable surface without boundary into a finite group is obtained in terms of an integral over a real group algebra. We calculate…
In this paper we characterize invertible matrices over an arbitrary commutative antiring S and find the structure of GL_n (S). We find the number of nilpotent matrices over an entire commutative finite antiring. We prove that every…
A lonesum matrix is a $(0,1)$-matrix that is uniquely determined by its row and column sum vectors. In this paper, we introduce lonesum decomposable matrices and study their properties. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition for a…
Let $\mathfrak{M}_n$ be the multiplicative monoid of $n \times n$ matrices over a finite field. The monoid algebra $\mathbf{C}[\mathfrak{M}_n]$ has been studied for several decades. One of the important early results is Kov\'acs' theorem…
We present combinatorial and analytical results concerning a Sheffer sequence with an exponential generating function of the form $G(s,z)=e^{czs+\alpha z^{2}+\beta z^{4}}$, where $\alpha, \beta, c \in \mathbb{R}$ with $\beta<0$ and $c\neq…
The work considers the set $\Lambda_n^k$ of all $n\times n$ binary matrices having the same number of $k$ units in each row and each column. The article specifically focuses on the matrices whose rows and columns are sorted…
Using the approach suggested in [arXiv:1002.2761] we present below a sufficient condition guaranteeing that two collections of patterns of permutations have the same exponential generating functions for the number of permutations avoiding…
