We give a simple explanation of numerical experiments of V. Arnold with two sequences of symmetric numerical semigroups, S(4,6+4k,87-4k) and S(9,3+9k,85-9k) generated by three elements. We present a generalization of these sequences by…

We investigate the question whether Subset Sum can be solved by a polynomial-time algorithm with access to a certificate of length poly(k) where k is the maximal number of bits in an input number. In other words, can it be solved using only…

Let $F(X)= \prod_{i=1}^k(a_iX+b_i)$ be a polynomial with $a_i, b_i$ being integers. Suppose the discriminant of $F$ is non-zero and $F$ is admissible. Given any natural number $N$, let $S(F,N)$ denotes those integers less than or equal to…

An $n$-independent set in two dimensions is a set of nodes admitting (not necessarily unique) bivariate interpolation with polynomials of total degree at most $n.$ For an arbitrary $n$-independent node set $\mathcal X$ we are interested…

We consider codes over the two semi-local non-unital rings of order six, \[ H_{23} = \langle a,b \mid 2a=0, 3b = 0, a^2=a, b^2 = 0, ab = 0 = ba \rangle,\] and \[H_{32} = \langle a,b \mid 2a=0, 3b = 0, a^2=0, b^2 = b, ab = 0 = ba \rangle. \]…

Polynomial remainder sequences contain the intermediate results of the Euclidean algorithm when applied to (non-)commutative polynomials. The running time of the algorithm is dependent on the size of the coefficients of the remainders.…

Let $G$ be a finite additive abelian group with exponent $n$ and $S=g_{1}\cdots g_{t}$ be a sequence of elements in $G$. For any element $g$ of $G$ and $A\subseteq\{1,2,\ldots,n-1\}$, let $N_{A,g}(S)$ denote the number of subsequences…

This article is devoted to the investigation of semidirect products of groups of loops and groups of diffeomorphisms of finite and infinte dimensional real, complex and quaternion manifolds. Necessary statements about quaternion manifolds…

Given a numerical semigroup $S$, we let $\mathrm P_S(x)=(1-x)\sum_{s\in S}x^s$ be its semigroup polynomial. We study cyclotomic numerical semigroups; these are numerical semigroups $S$ such that $\mathrm P_S(x)$ has all its roots in the…

This paper aims to investigate the numerical approximation of semilinear non-autonomous stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) driven by multiplicative or additive noise. Such equations are more realistic than autonomous SPDEs…

In this paper we study the Product Partition Problem (PPP), i.e. we are given a set of $n$ natural numbers represented on $m$ bits each and we are asked if a subset exists such that the product of the numbers in the subset equals the…

A non-trivial element of a group is a generalized torsion element if some products of its conjugates is the identity. The minimum number of such conjugates is called a generalized torsion order. We provide several restrictions for…

Let $\preceq$ be a preorder on a monoid $H$ and $s$ be an integer $\ge 2$. The $\preceq$-height of an $x \in H$ is the sup of the integers $k \ge 1$ for which there is a (strictly) $\preceq$-decreasing sequence $x_1,\ldots,x_k$ of…

An algebraic group is called semi-reductive if it is a semi-direct product of a reductive subgroup and the unipotent radical. Such a semi-reductive algebraic group naturally arises and also plays a key role in the study of modular…

A $(v,k,\lambda, \mu)$-partial difference set (PDS) is a subset $D$ of size $k$ of a group $G$ of order $v$ such that every nonidentity element $g$ of $G$ can be expressed in either $\lambda$ or $\mu$ different ways as a product $xy^{-1}$,…

It is a well known that, for odd $n$, the number of subsets of $\{1,2,\dots,n\}$ the sum of whose elements is divisible by $n$ equals the number of binary necklaces of length $n$. In this paper generalize this result in two directions. On…

Given a graph $G$, its genus polynomial is $\Gamma_G(x) = \sum_{k\geq 0} g_k(G)x^k$, where $g_k(G)$ is the number of 2-cell embeddings of $G$ in an orientable surface of genus $k$. The Log-Concavity Genus Distribution (LCGD) Conjecture…

In 2010, Bousquet-M\'elou et al. defined sequences of nonnegative integers called ascent sequences and showed that the ascent sequences of length $n$ are in one-to-one correspondence with the interval orders, i.e., the posets not containing…

We construct type A partially-symmetric Macdonald polynomials $P_{(\lambda \mid \gamma)}$, where $\lambda \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}^{n-k}$ is a partition and $\gamma \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}^k$ is a composition. These are polynomials which are…
