A chamber of the vector space $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ is a set $\{S_1,\dots,S_{n-1}\}$ of subspaces of $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ where $S_1\subset S_2\subset \dotso \subset S_{n-1}$ and $\dim(S_i)=i$ for $i=1,\dots,n-1$. By $\Gamma_n(q)$ we denote the…

This paper discusses a connection between two important classes of materials, namely quasicrystals and topological insulators as exemplified by the Quantum Hall problem. It has been remarked that the quasicrystal ``inherits" topological…

The character integral representation of one loop partition functions is useful to establish the relation between partition functions of conformal fields on Weyl equivalent spaces. The Euclidean space $S^a\times AdS_b$ can be mapped to…

For any polynomial $P \in \mathbb{C}[X_1,X_2,...,X_n]$, we describe a $\mathbb{C}$-vector space $F(P)$ of solutions of a linear system of equations coming from some algebraic partial differential equations such that the dimension of $F(P)$…

Let $p$ be a prime, $m$ be a positive integer ( $m \geq 1$, and $m \geq 2$ if $p=2$), and $\chi_n$ be a multiplicative complex character on $\mathbb F^*_{p^m}$ with order $n| (p^m-1)$. We show that a partition $\mathcal A_1 \cup \mathcal…

We design new polynomials for representing threshold functions in three different regimes: probabilistic polynomials of low degree, which need far less randomness than previous constructions, polynomial threshold functions (PTFs) with…

A \emph{quasi-polynomial} is a function defined of the form $q(k) = c_d(k) k^d + c_{d-1}(k) k^{d-1} + ... + c_0(k)$, where $c_0, c_1, ..., c_d$ are periodic functions in $k \in \Z$. Prominent examples of quasi-polynomials appear in…

This paper considers some work done by the author and Catlin [CD1,CD2,CD3] concerning positivity conditions for bihomogeneous polynomials and metrics on bundles over certain complex manifolds. It presents a simpler proof of a special case…

In this article, we consider the weighted partition function $p_f(n)$ given by the generating series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} p_f(n)z^n = \prod_{n\in\mathbb{N}^{*}}(1-z^n)^{-f(n)}$, where we restrict the class of weight functions to strongly…

We introduce a new functor category: the category $\mathcal{P}_{d,n}$ of strict polynomial functors with bounded by $n$ domain of degree $d$ over a field of characteristic $p>0$. It is equivalent to the category of finite dimensional…

In this paper, we study polynomial-like elements in vector spaces equipped with group actions. We first define these elements via iterated difference operators. In the case of a full rank lattice acting on an Euclidean space, these…

Given an integer base $b\geq 2$, a number $\rho\geq 1$ of colors, and a finite sequence $\Lambda=(\lambda_1,\ldots,\lambda_\rho)$ of positive integers, we introduce the concept of a $\Lambda$-restricted $\rho$-colored $b$-ary partition of…

Exact non-perturbative partition functions of coupling constants and external fields exhibit huge hidden symmetry, reflecting the possibility to change integration variables in the functional integral. In many cases this implies also some…

Given a partition $\lambda$, we write $e_j(\lambda)$ for the $j^{\textrm{th}}$ elementary symmetric polynomial $e_j$ evaluated at the parts of $\lambda$ and $e_jp_A(n)$ for the sum of $e_j(\lambda)$ as $\lambda$ ranges over the set of…

I derive explicitly all polynomial relations in the character ring of $E_8$ of the form $\chi_{\wedge^k \mathfrak{e}_8} - \mathfrak{p}_{k} (\chi_{1}, \dots, \chi_{8})=0$, where $\wedge^k \mathfrak{e}_8$ is an arbitrary exterior power of the…

In this paper we prove an analogue of the discrete spherical maximal theorem of Magyar, Stein, and Wainger, an analogue which concerns maximal functions associated to homogenous algebraic surfaces. Let $\mathfrak{p}$ be a homogenous…

Bloch-Okounkov studied certain functions on partitions $f$ called shifted symmetric polynomials. They showed that certain $q$-series arising from these functions (the so-called \emph{$q$-brackets} $\left<f\right>_q$) are quasimodular forms.…

We study the concept of (generalized) $p$-th variation of a real-valued continuous function along a general class of refining sequence of partitions. We show that the finiteness of the $p$-th variation of a given function is closely related…

In this paper, we study genus $0$ equivariant relative Gromov-Witten invariants of $\mathbb{P}^1$ whose corresponding relative stable maps are totally ramified over one point. For fixed number of marked points, we show that such invariants…

Fibonacci numbers can be expressed in terms of multinomial coefficients as sums over integer partitions into odd parts. We use this fact to introduce a family of double inequalities involving the generating function for the number of…
