In this note, we initiate the systematic study of the Lie algebra structure of the necklace Lie algebra n of a free algebra in 2d variables. We begin by giving a description of n as an sp(2d)-module. Specializing to d = 1, we decompose n…

This paper gives an exposition of well known results on vector partition functions. The exposition is based on works of M. Brion, A. Szenes and M. Vergne and is geared toward explicit computer realizations. In particular, the paper presents…

The tensor powers of the vector representation associated to an infinite rank quantum group decompose into irreducible components with multiplicities independant of the infinite root system considered. Although the irreducible modules…

This paper addresses the problem of finding $Q_{m,t}\left(n\right)$, the number of possible ways to partition any member $n$ of the cyclic group $\mathbb{Z}/m\mathbb{Z}$ into $t$ distinct parts. When $m$ is odd, it was previously known that…

A composition of a nonnegative integer (n) is a sequence of positive integers whose sum is (n). A composition is palindromic if it is unchanged when its terms are read in reverse order. We provide a generating function for the number of…

We study a Lie algebra of formal vector fields $W_n$ with its application to the perturbative deformed holomorphic symplectic structure in the A-model, and a Calabi-Yau manifold with boundaries in the B-model. A relevant concept in the…

Given a matroid M represented by a linear subspace L in n-space (equivalently by an arrangement of n hyperplanes in L), we define a graded ring R(L) which degenerates to the Stanley-Reisner ring of the broken circuit complex for any choice…

Bar Codes are combinatorial objects encoding many properties of monomial ideals. In this paper we employ these objects to study Janet-like divisions. Given a finite set of terms U, from its Bar Code we can compute the Janet-like…

Even though weight multiplicity formulas, such as Kostant's formula, exist their computational use is extremely cumbersome. In fact, even in cases when the multiplicity is well understood, the number of terms considered in Kostant's formula…

In this paper we prove a duality between $k$-noncrossing partitions over $[n]=\{1,...,n\}$ and $k$-noncrossing braids over $[n-1]$. This duality is derived directly via (generalized) vacillating tableaux which are in correspondence to…

The skein algebra of a marked surface, possibly with punctures, admits the basis of (tagged) bracelet elements constructed by Fock-Goncharov and Musiker-Schiffler-Williams. As a cluster algebra, it also admits the theta basis of…

A partial $(n,k,t)_\lambda$-system is a pair $(X,\mathcal{B})$ where $X$ is an $n$-set of vertices and $\mathcal{B}$ is a collection of $k$-subsets of $X$ called blocks such that each $t$-set of vertices is a subset of at most $\lambda$…

A set partition of $[n] := \{1, 2, \dots, n \}$ is called {\em $r$-Stirling} if the numbers $1, 2, \dots, r$ belong to distinct blocks. Haglund, Rhoades, and Shimozono constructed graded ring $R_{n,k}$ depending on two positive integers $k…

It is well known that the Bell numbers represent the total number of partitions of an n-set. Similarly, the Stirling numbers of the second kind, represent the number of k-partitions of an n-set. In this paper we introduce a certain…

The notion of broken $k$-diamond partitions was introduced by Andrews and Paule. Let $\Delta_{k}(n)$ denote the number of broken $k$-diamond partitions of $n$ for a fixed positive integer $k$. In this paper, we establish new infinite…
