We present an algorithm to enumerate isometry classes of integral quadratic lattices of a given rank and determinant, and analyze its running time by giving bounds on the number of genus symbols for a fixed rank and determinant. We build on…

Enumerating polygons on regular lattices is a classic problem in rigorous statistical mechanics. The goal of enumerating polygons on the square lattice via fermionic path integration was achieved using a free-fermion quadratic action in the…

A Latin square of order $n$ is an $n\times n$ array which contains $n$ distinct symbols exactly once in each row and column. We define the adjacent distance between two adjacent cells (containing integers) to be their difference modulo $n$,…

A Latin array is a matrix of symbols in which no symbol occurs more than once within a row or within a column. A diagonal of an $n\times n$ array is a selection of $n$ cells taken from different rows and columns of the array. The weight of…

We establish an elementary, but rather striking pattern concerning the quartic residues of primes $p$ that are congruent to 5 modulo 8. Let $g$ be a generator of the multiplicative group of $\mathbb Z_p$ and let $M$ be the $4\times 4$…

Do you want to know what an anti-chiece Latin square is? Or what a non-consecutive toroidal modular Latin square is? We invented a ton of new types of Latin squares, some inspired by existing Sudoku variations. We can't wait to introduce…

A partial Latin square of order $n$ can be represented by a $3$-dimensional chess-board of size $n\times n\times n$ with at most $n^2$ non-attacking rooks. Based on this representation, we apply a uniform method to prove the M. Hall's,…

An \emph{antilattice} is an algebraic structure based on the same set of axioms as a lattice except that the two commutativity axioms for $\land$ and $\lor$ are replaced by anticommutative counterparts. In this paper we study certain…

A \emph{Latin square} is a matrix of symbols such that each symbol occurs exactly once in each row and column. A Latin square $L$ is \emph{row-Hamiltonian} if the permutation induced by each pair of distinct rows of $L$ is a full cycle…

A real symmetric matrix $M$ is completely positive semidefinite if it admits a Gram representation by (Hermitian) positive semidefinite matrices of any size $d$. The smallest such $d$ is called the (complex) completely positive semidefinite…

We prove an identity for five arguments, valid in the lattice of natural numbers with gcd and lcm as lattice operations. More generally, this identity characterizes arbitrary distributive lattices. Fixing three of the five arguments, we…
