The spectra of recently constructed auxiliary matrices for the six-vertex model respectively the spin s=1/2 Heisenberg chain at roots of unity q^N=1 are investigated. Two conjectures are formulated both of which are proven for N=3 and are…

A Steinhaus matrix is a binary square matrix of size $n$ which is symmetric, with diagonal of zeros, and whose upper-triangular coefficients satisfy $a_{i,j}=a_{i-1,j-1}+a_{i-1,j}$ for all $2\leq i<j\leq n$. Steinhaus matrices are…

A continuum $X$ is a dendrite if it is locally connected and contains no simple closed curve, a self mapping $f$ of $X$ is called monotone if the preimage of any connected subset of $X$ is connected. If $X$ is a dendrite and $f:X\to X$ is a…

This paper studies the set of $n\times n$ matrices for which all row and column sums equal zero. By representing these matrices in a lower dimensional space, it is shown that this set is closed under addition and multiplication, and…

Given a set $R$, a hypergraph is $R$-uniform if the size of every hyperedge belongs to $R$. A hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ is called \textit{covering} if every vertex pair is contained in some hyperedge in $\mathcal{H}$. In this note, we show…

A hypergraph is linear if each pair of distinct vertices appears in at most one common edge. We say $\varGamma=(V,E)$ is an associated graph of a linear hypergraph $\mathcal{H}=(V, X)$ if for any $x\in X$, the induced subgraph…

We consider two algorithmic problems concerning sub-semigroups of Heisenberg groups and, more generally, two-step nilpotent groups. The first problem is Intersection Emptiness, which asks whether a finite number of given finitely generated…

The main objective of this paper is to provide a theory for computing the Hochschild cohomology of algebras arising from a linear category with finitely many objects and zero compositions. For this purpose, we consider such a category using…

Let $K$ denote a field and let $V$ denote a vector space over $K$ with finite positive dimension. We consider a pair of linear transformations $A:V \to V$ and $A^*:V \to V$ that satisfy the following conditions: (i) each of $A,A^*$ is…

In this paper we characterize the nonnegative irreducible tridiagonal matrices and their permutations, using certain entries in their primitive idempotents. Our main result is summarized as follows. Let $d$ denote a nonnegative integer. Let…

A permutation graph is a cubic graph admitting a 1-factor M whose complement consists of two chordless cycles. Extending results of Ellingham and of Goldwasser and Zhang, we prove that if e is an edge of M such that every 4-cycle containing…

In a metric space $M=(X,d)$, we say that $v$ is between $u$ and $w$ if $d(u,w)=d(u,v)+d(v,w)$. Taking all triples $\{u,v,w\}$ such that $v$ is between $u$ and $w$, one can associate a 3-uniform hypergraph with each finite metric space $M$.…

A matching of graph $G$ is maximal if it cannot be expanded by adding any edge to create a larger matching. In this paper, for a hexagonal ring $H$ with $n$ hexagons, we show that the number of maximal matchings of $H$ equals to the trace…

A Heffter array $H(n;k)$ is an $n\times n$ matrix such that each row and column contains $k$ filled cells, each row and column sum is divisible by $2nk+1$ and either $x$ or $-x$ appears in the array for each integer $1\leq x\leq nk$.…

A group $G$ is self-similar if it admits a triple $(G,H,f)$ where $H$ is a subgroup of $G$ and $f: H \to G$ a simple homomorphism, that is, the only subgroup $K$ of $H$, normal in $G$ and $f$-invariant ($K^f \leq K$) is trivial. The group…

The interchange process is a random permutation model that was introduced as a way to study the quantum Heisenberg model. For this model, progress had been made on some specific graphs: trees, the hypercube, the Hamming graph, the complete…

This paper presents a bijection between ascent sequences and upper triangular matrices whose non-negative entries are such that all rows and columns contain at least one non-zero entry. We show the equivalence of several natural statistics…

In this paper, a new sub-family of Hypercubes called the \textit{associated Mersenne graphs} $\mathcal{M}_{n}$ are introduced. The definition of associated Mersenne graphs is motivated from the Fibonacci-run graphs ({\"O}.…

Armendariz and semicommutative rings are generalizations of reduced rings. In \cite{IN}, I.N. Herstein introduced the notion of a hypercenter of a ring to generalize the center subclass. For a ring $R$, an element $a \in R$ is called…
