In the first part of this paper, we obtain symmetric formulae for the probabilities that a plane convex body hits exactly 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 triangles of a lattice of congruent triangles in the plane. Furthermore, a very simple formula for…
A convex lattice set in $\mathbb{Z}^d$ is the intersection of a convex set in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$. A well-known theorem of Doignon states that the Helly number of $d$-dimensional convex lattice sets equals…
We describe how the usual supercharges of extended supersymmetry may be {\it twisted} to produce a BRST-like supercharge $Q$. The usual supersymmetry algebra is then replaced by a twisted algebra and the action of the twisted theory is…
First, we calculate the Ehrhart polynomial associated to an arbitrary cube with integer coordinates for its vertices. Then, we use this result to derive relationships between the Ehrhart polynomials for regular lattice tetrahedrons and…
We consider a two dimensional extension of the so-called linearizable mappings. In particular, we start from the Heideman-Hogan recurrence, which is known as one of the linearizable Somos-like recurrences, and introduce one of its two…
Let G be a semisimple Lie group without compact factors, \Gamma be an irreducible lattice in G. In the first part of the article we give the necessary and sufficient condition under which a sequence of translates of probability…
In a previous paper (El. J. Combin. 6 (1999), R37), the author generalized Ehrhart's idea of counting lattice points in dilated rational polytopes: Given a rational polytope, that is, a polytope with rational vertices, we use its…
In this paper we consider arbitrary hexagons on the triangular lattice with three arbitrary bowtie-shaped holes, whose centers form an equilateral triangle. The number of lozenge tilings of such general regions is not expected --- and…
Geometric interpretation of the Hirota equation is presented as equation describing the Laplace sequence of two-dimensional quadrilateral lattices. Different forms of the equation are given together with their geometric interpretation: (i)…
We use a probabilistic interpretation of solid angles to generalize the well-known fact that the inner angles of a triangle sum to 180 degrees. For the 3-dimensional case, we show that the sum of the solid inner vertex angles of a…
We introduce an alternative stratification of knots: by the size of lattice on which a knot can be first met. Using this classification, we find ratio of unknots and knots with more than 10 minimal crossings inside different lattices and…
By systematically applying ten inequivalent two-part relations between hypergeometric sums 3F2(1) to the published database of all such sums, 66 new sums are obtained. Many results extracted from the literature are shown to be special cases…
The paper concerns lattice triangulations, that is, triangulations of the integer points in a polygon in $\mathbb{R}^2$ whose vertices are also integer points. Lattice triangulations have been studied extensively both as geometric objects…
The literature on Dedekind sums is vast. In this expository paper we show that there is a common thread to many generalizations of Dedekind sums, namely through the study of lattice point enumeration of rational polytopes. In particular,…
We present simple proofs of a discrete fractional and non-fractional Hardy inequality, Our constants are explicit, but not optimal. In the class of power weights, we get a complete picture of when the non-fractional Hardy inequality holds,…
Diversities are a generalization of metric spaces, where instead of the non-negative function being defined on pairs of points, it is defined on arbitrary finite sets of points. Diversities have a well-developed theory. This includes the…
We present a simple lattice formulation of two-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ $U(k)$ supersymmetric QCD (SQCD) with $N$ matter multiplets in the fundamental representation. The construction uses compact gauge link variables and exactly…
Fakhruddin has proved that for two lattice polygons P and Q any lattice point in their Minkowski sum can be written as a sum of a lattice point in P and one in Q, provided P is smooth and the normal fan of P is a subdivision of the normal…
Two lattice points are visible from one another if there is no lattice point on the open line segment joining them. Let $S$ be a finite subset of $\mathbb{Z}^k$. The asymptotic density of the set of lattice points, visible from all points…
We enumerate the edges in the Hasse diagram of several lattices arising in the combinatorial context of lattice paths. Specifically, we will consider the case of Dyck, Grand Dyck, Motzkin, Grand Motzkin, Schr\"oder and Grand Schr\"oder…
