We present randomized algorithms for some well-studied, hard combinatorial problems: the k-path problem, the p-packing of q-sets problem, and the q-dimensional p-matching problem. Our algorithms solve these problems with high probability in…
In this paper, we compute explicitly the $q$-dimensions of highest weight crystals modulo $q^n-1$ for a quantum group of arbitrary finite type under certain assumption, and interpret the modulo computations in terms of the cyclic sieving…
We study the effect of query order on computational power, and show that $\pjk$-the languages computable via a polynomial-time machine given one query to the jth level of the boolean hierarchy followed by one query to the kth level of the…
We say a power series $a_0+a_1q+a_2q^2+\cdots$ is \emph{multiplicative} if $n\mapsto a_n/a_1$ for positive integers $n$ is a multiplicative function. Given the Eisenstein series $E_{2k}(q)$, we consider formal multiplicative power series…
Cyclotomic polynomials are basic objects in Number Theory. Their properties depend on the number of distinct primes that intervene in the factorization of their order, and the binary case is thus the first nontrivial case. This paper sees…
Let $m$ and $k \geq 2$ be positive integers. We show that polynomial $P = (1+x)^m(1+x^k)$ is strongly unimodal (frequently known as {\it log concave\/}) if and only if $m \geq k^2 -3$; this is also the criterion for $P$ to be merely…
For their bijective proof of the hook-length formula for the number of standard tableaux of a fixed shape Novelli, Pak and Stoyanovskii define a modified jeu de taquin which transforms an arbitrary filling of the Ferrers diagram with…
The volume of a cyclic polytope can be obtained by forming an iterated integral along a suitable piecewise linear path running through its edges. Different choices of such a path are related by the action of a subgroup of the combinatorial…
A conjecture of Kac now a theorem asserts that the polynomial now known as the Kac polynomial, which counts the isomorphism classes of absolutely indecomposable representations of a quiver over a finite field with a given dimension vector,…
Recent discoveries make it possible to compute the K-theory of certain rings from their cyclic homology and certain versions of their cdh-cohomology. We extend the work of G. Corti\~nas et al. who calculated the K-theory of, in addition to…
The well-known Hermite-Biehler theorem claims that a univariate monic polynomial s of degree k has all roots in the open upper half-plane if and only if s=p+iq where p and q are real polynomials of degree k and k-1 resp. with all real,…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$. We consider the problem of lifting $p$-cyclic covers of $\Proj_k$ as $p$-cyclic covers of the projective line over some DVR under the condition that the wild monodromy is…
Let $f$ be a smooth real function with strictly monotone first $k$ derivatives. We show that for a finite set $A$, with $|A+A|\leq K|A|$, $|2^kf(A)-(2^k-1)f(A)|\gg_k |A|^{k+1-o(1)}/K^{O_k(1)}$. We deduce several new sum-product type…
We introduce determinantal sieving, a new, remarkably powerful tool in the toolbox of algebraic FPT algorithms. Given a polynomial $P(X)$ on a set of variables $X=\{x_1,\ldots,x_n\}$ and a linear matroid $M=(X,\mathcal{I})$ of rank $k$,…
For smooth projective 3-folds of general type, we prove that the relative canonical stability $\mu_s(3)\leq 8$. This is induced from our improved result of Koll\'ar: the m-canonical map of a smooth projective 3-fold of general type is…
We propose a new lifting and recombination scheme for rational bivariate polynomial factorization that takes advantage of the Newton polytope geometry. We obtain a deterministic algorithm that can be seen as a sparse version of an algorithm…
In this paper, we prove some computational results about equivariant cohomology over the cyclic group $C_{p^n}$ of prime power order. We show that there is an inductive formula when the dimension of the $C_p$-fixed points of the grading is…
A poset on a certain class of partitions known as k-shapes was recently introduced to provide a combinatorial rule for the expansion of a (k-1)-Schur functions into k-Schur functions at t=1. The main ingredient in this construction was a…
By analogy with algebraic geometry, we define a category of non-linear sheaves (quasi-coherent homotopy-sheaves of topological spaces) on projective toric varieties and prove a splitting result for its algebraic K-theory, generalising…
We consider two (densely defined) involutions on the space of $q\times q$ matrices; $I(x_{ij})$ is the matrix inverse of $(x_{ij})$, and $J(x_{ij})$ is the matrix whose $ij$th entry is the reciprocal $x_{ij}^{-1}$. Let $K=I\circ J$. The set…
