The focus of this work is the study of Parikh matrices with emphasis on two concrete problems. In the first part of our presentation we show that a conjecture by Dick at al. in 2021 only stands in the case of ternary alphabets, while…
Let n be any odd natural number other than a perfect square, in this article it is demonstrated that this new factorization algorithm is much more efficient than the implementation technique [2,3 p.1470], described in this article, of the…
Here we discuss a regularized version of the factorization method for positive operators acting on a Hilbert Space. The factorization method is a qualitative reconstruction method that has been used to solve many inverse shape problems. In…
Fix natural numbers $n \geq 1$, $t \geq 2$ and a primitive $t^{\text{th}}$ root of unity $\omega$. In previous work with A. Ayyer (J. Alg., 2022), we studied the factorization of specialized irreducible characters of $\text{GL}_{tn}$,…
The concept of a weak factorization system has been studied extensively in homotopy theory and has recently found an application in one of the proofs of the celebrated flat cover conjecture, categorical versions of which have been presented…
A complete partition theory is presented for omega-located words (and omega-words), namely for located words over an infinite alphabet dominated by a fixed increasing sequence. This theory strengthens in an essential way the classical…
In this paper we consider the following problems: how many different subsets of Sigma^n can occur as set of all length-n factors of a finite word? If a subset is representable, how long a word do we need to represent it? How many such…
We analyse the pseudofinite monadic second order theory of words over a fixed finite alphabet. In particular we present an axiomatisation of this theory, working in a one-sorted first order framework. The analysis hinges on the fact that…
In [2], while studying a relevant class of polyominoes that tile the plane by translation, i.e., double square polyominoes, the authors found that their boundary words, encoded by the Freeman chain coding on a four letters alphabet, have…
In [CaballeroHooleyDelta], we associated a Dyck word $\langle\! \langle n \rangle\! \rangle_{\lambda}$ to any pair $(n, \lambda)$ consisting of an integer $n \geq 1$ and a real number $\lambda > 1$. The goal of the present paper is to show…
We systematically study the commutative factorization categories over the Ran space. We fill in what we consider as a gap in the construction of the factorizable Satake functor in the constructible setting in arXiv:1708.07205,…
Nonunique factorization in cancellative commutative semigroups is often studied using combinatorial factorization invariants, which assign to each semigroup element a quantity determined by the factorization structure. For numerical…
We show that many principles of first-order arithmetic, previously only known to lie strictly between $\Sigma_1$-induction and $\Sigma_2$-induction, are equivalent to the well-foundedness of $\omega^\omega$. Among these principles are the…
Since its introduction in 2012, the factorization theory for rational motions quickly evolved and found applications in theoretical and applied mechanism science. We provide an accessible introduction to motion factorization with many…
Delta lenses are functors equipped with a suitable choice of lifts, and are used to model bidirectional transformations between systems. In this paper, we construct an algebraic weak factorisation system whose R-algebras are delta lenses.…
A double occurrence word $w$ over a finite alphabet $\Sigma$ is a word in which each alphabet letter appears exactly twice. Such words arise naturally in the study of topology, graph theory, and combinatorics. Recently, double occurrence…
We study combinatorial aspects of the Schubert calculus of the affine Grassmannian Gr associated with SL(n,C). Our main results are: 1) Pieri rules for the Schubert bases of H^*(Gr) and H_*(Gr), which expresses the product of a special…
We consider the class ${\cal P}_1$ of all infinite words $x\in A^\omega$ over a finite alphabet $A$ admitting a prefixal factorization, i.e., a factorization $x= U_0 U_1U_2 \cdots $ where each $U_i$ is a non-empty prefix of $x.$ With each…
We define strict and lax orthogonal factorization systems on double categories. These consist of an orthogonal factorization system on arrows and one on double cells that are compatible with each other. Our definitions are motivated by…
A convergent algorithm for nonnegative matrix factorization with orthogonality constraints imposed on both factors is proposed in this paper. This factorization concept was first introduced by Ding et al. with intent to further improve…
