In this paper, we study the incidence algebra $T$ of the attenuated space poset $\mathcal{A}_q(N, M)$. We consider the following topics. We consider some generators of $T$: the raising matrix $R$, the lowering matrix $L$, and a certain…
The bivariate $P$- and $Q$-polynomial structures of association schemes based on attenuated spaces are examined using recurrence and difference relations of the bivariate polynomials which form the eigenvalues of the scheme. These…
Let $\G$ denote a bipartite distance-regular graph with vertex set $X$ and diameter $D \ge 3$. Fix $x \in X$ and let $L$ (resp. $R$) denote the corresponding lowering (resp. raising) matrix. We show that each $Q$-polynomial structure for…
The $Q$-polynomial property is an algebraic property of distance-regular graphs, that was introduced by Delsarte in his study of coding theory. Many distance-regular graphs admit the $Q$-polynomial property. Only recently the $Q$-polynomial…
We introduce two polynomials (in $q$) associated with a finite poset $P$ that encode some information on the covering relation in $P$. If $P$ is a distributive lattice, and hence $P$ is isomorphic to the poset of dual order ideals in a…
This paper is concerned with a covering problem of Euclidean space by a particular arrangement of cones that are not necessarily full and are allowed to overlap. The problem provides an equivalent geometric reformulation of the solvability…
In this paper, the module algebra structures of $X_{q}(A_{1})$ on quantum polynomial algebra $\C_{q}[x,y,z]$ are investigated, and a complete classification of $X_{q}(A_{1})$-module algebra structures on $\C_{q}[x,y,z]$ is given
We show that subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n$ of large enough Hausdorff and Fourier dimension contain polynomial patterns of the form \begin{align*} ( x ,\, x + A_1 y ,\, \dots,\, x + A_{k-1} y ,\, x + A_k y + Q(y) e_n ), \quad x \in…
The Assmus-Mattson theorem gives a way to identify block designs arising from codes. This result was broadened to matroids and weighted designs. In this work we present a further two-fold generalisation: first from matroids to polymatroids…
Bounded Hilbert space *-representations are studied for a q-analogue of the *-algebra Pol(Mat_{2,2}) of polynomials on the space Mat_{2,2} of complex 2\times 2 matrices.
The study of $P$-polynomial association schemes (distance-regular graphs) and $Q$-polynomial association schemes, and in particular $P$- and $Q$-polynomial association schemes, has been a central theme not only in the theory of association…
We review properties of q-orthogonal polynomials, related to their orthogonality, duality and connection with the theory of symmetric (self-adjoint) operators, represented by a Jacobi matrix. In particular, we show how one can naturally…
In a recent article "Projective geometries, $Q$-polynomial structures, and quantum groups" Terwilliger (arXiv:2407.14964) defined a certain weighted adjacency matrix, depending on a free (positive real) parameter, associated with the…
Let $\{\mathbb{P}_n\}_{n\ge 0}$ and $\{\mathbb{Q}_n\}_{n\ge 0}$ be two monic polynomial systems in several variables satisfying the linear structure relation $$\mathbb{Q}_n = \mathbb{P}_n + M_n \mathbb{P}_{n-1}, \quad n\ge 1,$$ where $M_n$…
The q-classical orthogonal polynomials of the q-Hahn Tableau are characterized from their orthogonality condition and by a first and a second structure relation. Unfortunately, for the q-semiclassical orthogonal polynomials (a…
Given a quadratic two-parameter matrix polynomial in Newton basis $Q_{N} (\lambda ,\mu)$, we construct a vector space of linear two-parameter matrix polynomials and identify a set of linearizations which lie in the vector space. We also…
In 2023 we obtained a $Q$-polynomial structure for the projective geometry $L_N(q)$. In the present paper, we display a more general $Q$-polynomial structure for $L_N(q)$. Our new $Q$-polynomial structure is defined using a free parameter…
In this paper we further develop the connection between tridiagonal pairs and the q-tetrahedron algebra $\boxtimes_q$. Let V denote a finite dimensional vector space over an algebraically closed field and let A, A^* denote a tridiagonal…
Given a list of $n$ cells $L=[(p_1,q_1),...,(p_n, q_n)]$ where $p_i, q_i\in \textbf{Z}_{\ge 0}$, we let $\Delta_L=\det |{(p_j!)^{-1}(q_j!)^{-1} x^{p_j}_iy^{q_j}_i} |$. The space of diagonally alternating polynomials is spanned by…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of a bi-$\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$-structure on the tangent space at a CM point on a locally Hermitian symmetric domain. We prove that this bi-$\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$-structure decomposes into the direct…
