Let $\sum_{d|n}$ denote sum over divisors of a positive integer $n$, and $t_{r}(n)$ denote the number of representations of $n$ as a sum of $r$ triangular numbers. Then we prove that $$…
An abstract simplicial complex is said to be $d$-representable if it records the intersection pattern of a collection of convex sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$. In this paper, we show that $d$-representability of a simplicial complex is equivalent…
We prove a theorem which add a new member to Rogers-Ramanujan identities. This new member counts partitions with different type of constraints on even and odd parts. Generalizing this theorem, we obtain two family of partition identities of…
Resorting to the recursions satisfied by the polynomials which converge to the right hand sides of the Rogers-Ramanujan type identities given by Sills and a determinant method presented in a paper by Ismail-Prodinger-Stanton, we obtain many…
The Hessian map is the rational map that sends a homogeneous polynomial to the determinant of its Hessian matrix. We prove that the Hessian map is birational on its image for ternary forms of degree $d\ge 4$, $d\neq 5$, by considering the…
We construct 2^{\Omega(n^{5/4})} combinatorial types of triangulated 3-spheres on n vertices. Since by a result of Goodman and Pollack (1986) there are no more than 2^{O(n log n)} combinatorial types of simplicial 4-polytopes, this proves…
In the 1970s Thurston introduced a technique known as ``jiggling'' which brings any triangulation into general position (a stronger version of transversality) by subdividing and perturbing. This result is now known as Thurston's jiggling…
The problem of representing a given positive integer as a sum of four squares of integers has been widely concerned for a long time, and for a given positive odd $n$ one can find a representation by doing arithmetic in a maximal order of…
In answer to a question of Andrews about finding combinatorial proofs of two identities in Ramanujan's "Lost" Notebook, we obtain weighted forms of Euler's theorem on partitions with odd parts and distinct parts. This work is inspired by…
A generalized Bailey pair, which contains several special cases considered by Bailey (\emph{Proc. London Math. Soc. (2)}, 50 (1949), 421--435), is derived and used to find a number of new Rogers-Ramanujan type identities. Consideration of…
Remarkably simple closed-form expressions for the elements of the groups SU(n), SL(n,R), and SL(n,C) with n=2, 3, and 4 are obtained using linear functions of biquaternions instead of n x n matrices. These representations do not directly…
In this paper we prove Area theorem, Biebarbach`s Theorem, Koebe Quarter Theorem and Mergelyan`s Approximation Theorem in the bicomplex framework.
We give a combinatorial proof of the first Rogers-Ramanujan identity by using two symmetries of a new generalization of Dyson's rank. These symmetries are established by direct bijections.
We give an elementary proof of the development of Macdonald polynomials in terms of "modified complete" and elementary symmetric functions.
In this paper, we first give a simple combinatorial proof of Tepper's identity. Then, as a by product of this interesting identity we present another proof of the well-known Wilson's identity in number theory. Finally, we obtain a…
The q-binomial coefficients were assumed to be unimodal as early as the 1850's, but it remained unproven until Sylvester's 1878 proof using invariant theory. In 1982, Proctor gave an "elementary" proof using linear algebra. Finally, in…
In this note we prove a conjecture by Li, Qu, Li, and Fu on permutation trinomials over $\mathbb{F}_3^{2k}$. In addition, new examples and generalizations of some families of permutation polynomials of $\mathbb{F}_{3^k}$ and…
In this paper, we give several matrix representations for the Horadam quaternions. We derive several identities related to these quaternions by using the matrix method. Since quaternion multiplication is not commutative, some of our results…
We extend the study of \emph{melonic} quartic tensor models to models with arbitrary quartic interactions. This extension requires a new version of the loop vertex expansion using several species of intermediate fields and iterated…
We prove a reflection theorem, conjectured by Nakagawa and Ohno, for the number of quartic rings, or pairs of ternary quadratic forms, with a given cubic resolvent. Over $\mathbb{Z}$, our results are unconditional; we also allow the base to…
