We give a relation between verbatim generating functions of what we call Pythagorean languages and matrix convexity. Namely, several multivariate matrix convex functions occurring in the existing matrix analysis literature arise naturally…
This thesis proposes a combinatorial generalization of a nilpotent operator on a vector space. The resulting object is highly natural, with basic connections to a variety of fields in pure mathematics, engineering, and the sciences. For the…
In the context of the shuffle theorem, many classical integer sequences appear with a natural refinement by two statistics $q$ and $t$: for example the Catalan and Schr\"oder numbers. In particular, the bigraded Hilbert series of diagonal…
We investigate the existence and the orthogonality of the generalized Jack symmetric functions which play an important role in the AGT relations. We show their orthogonality by deforming them to the generalized Macdonald symmetric…
We present a method using contour integration to derive definite integrals and their associated infinite sums which can be expressed as a special function. We give a proof of the basic equation and some examples of the method. The advantage…
Starting from a description of various generalized function algebras based on sequence spaces, we develop the general framework for considering linear problems with singular coefficients or non linear problems. Therefore, we prove…
A synaptic algebra is a generalization of the Jordan algebra of selfadjoint elements of a von Neumann algebra. We study symmetries in synaptic algebras, i.e., elements whose square is the unit element, and we investigate the equivalence…
Asymmetric combination of logics is a formal process that develops the characteristic features of a specific logic on top of another one. Typical examples include the development of temporal, hybrid, and probabilistic dimensions over a…
In this paper, we investigate the power of nearly purely operational techniques in the study of umbral calculus. We present a concise reconstruction of the theory based on a systematic use of linear operators, with particular attention to…
In this paper I present a kind of proof for classical Euclidean geometric problems which relies on both synthetic and analytic geometry. Using the elementary tools of polynomial algebra and multivariate calculus we manage to reduce the…
A new classification of real functions and other related real objects defined within a compact interval is proposed. The scope of the classification includes normal real functions and distributions in the sense of Schwartz, referred to…
In this work we extend the theory of the classical Hardy space $H^1$ to the rational Dunkl setting. Specifically, let $\Delta$ be the Dunkl Laplacian on a Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^N$. On the half-space $\mathbb{R}_+\times\mathbb{R}^N$,…
This paper introduces certain elliptic Harnack inequalities for harmonic functions in the setting of the product space $M \times X$, where $M$ is a (weighted) Riemannian Manifold and $X$ is a countable graph. Since some standard arguments…
An analysis of symmetric function theory is given from the perspective of the underlying Hopf and bi-algebraic structures. These are presented explicitly in terms of standard symmetric function operations. Particular attention is focussed…
We define cylindric generalisations of skew Macdonald functions when one of their parameters is set to zero. We define these functions as weighted sums over cylindric skew tableaux: fixing two integers n>2 and k>0 we shift an ordinary skew…
In this paper, we explore a consequence of symplectic duality (also known as 3d mirror symmetry) in the setting of enumerative geometry. The theory of quasimaps allows one to associate hypergeometric functions called vertex functions to…
Symbolic powers are a classical commutative algebra topic that relates to primary decomposition, consisting, in some circumstances, of the functions that vanish up to a certain order on a given variety. However, these are notoriously…
A new type of sl_3 basic hypergeometric series based on Macdonald polynomials is introduced. Besides a pair of Macdonald polynomials attached to two different sets of variables, a key-ingredient in the sl_3 basic hypergeometric series is a…
We construct a family of BC_n-symmetric biorthogonal abelian functions generalizing Koornwinder's orthogonal polynomials, and prove a number of their properties, most notably analogues of Macdonald's conjectures. The construction is based…
We introduce the notion of "quasi-symmetric" polynomials, which is a generalization of the notion of symmetry, and is particularly suited to the setting of polynomial rings over finite fields. The properties of this new class of functions…
