Two well-known polytopes whose vertices are indexed by permutations in the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$ are the permutohedron $P_n$ and the Birkhoff polytope $B_n$. We consider polytopes $P_n(\Pi)$ and $B_n(\Pi)$, whose vertices…

We prove some estimates for elementary symmetric polynomials on $\mathbb D^n.$ We show that these estimates are sharp which allow us to study the properties of closed symmetrized polydisc $\Gamma_n.$ Furthermore, we show the existence and…

Let $R$ be a finite non-commutative ring with $1\ne 0$. By a polynomial function on $R$, we mean a function $F\colon R\longrightarrow R$ induced by a polynomial $f=\sum\limits_{i=0}^{n}a_ix^i\in R[x]$ via right substitution of the variable…

Combinatorial $B_n$-analogues of Schubert polynomials and corresponding symmetric functions are constructed from an exponential solution of the $B_n$-Yang-Baxter equation that involves the nilCoxeter algebra of the hyperoctahedral group.

We introduce new families of combinatorial objects whose enumeration computes volumes of flow polytopes. These objects provide an interpretation, based on parking functions, of Baldoni and Vergne's generalization of a volume formula…

The machinery of zonotopal algebra is linked with two particular polytopes: the Stanley-Pitman polytope and the regular simplex $\mathfrak{Sim}_n(t_1,...,t_n)$ with parameters $t_1,...,t_n\in \mathbb{R}_+^n$, defined by the inequalities…

A transportation polytope consists of all multidimensional arrays or tables of non-negative real numbers that satisfy certain sum conditions on subsets of the entries. They arise naturally in optimization and statistics, and also have…

We recall that the $k$-Naples parking functions of length $n$ (a generalization of parking functions) are defined by requiring that a car which finds its preferred spot occupied must first back up a spot at a time (up to $k$ spots) before…

For positive integers $m$ and $n$, the partial permutohedron $\mathcal{P}(m,n)$ is a certain integral polytope in $\mathbb{R}^m$, which can be defined as the convex hull of the vectors from $\{0,1,\ldots,n\}^m$ whose nonzero entries are…

The Birkhoff polytope B(n) is the convex hull of all (n x n) permutation matrices, i.e., matrices where precisely one entry in each row and column is one, and zeros at all other places. This is a widely studied polytope with various…

We extend the notion of parking functions to parking sequences, which include cars of different sizes, and prove a product formula for the number of such sequences.

We introduce and study a family of polytopes which can be seen as a generalization of the permutahedron of type $B_d$. We highlight connections with the largest possible diameter of the convex hull of a set of points in dimension $d$ whose…

Let $X_1,\ldots,X_n$ be i.i.d.\ random points in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space sampled according to one of the following probability densities: $$ f_{d,\beta} (x) = \text{const} \cdot (1-\|x\|^2)^{\beta}, \quad \|x\|\leq 1, \quad…

Naples parking functions were introduced as a generalization of classical parking functions, in which cars are allowed to park backwards, by checking up to a fixed number of previous slots, before proceedings forward as usual. In our…

We express the toric g-vector entries of any simple polytope as a nonnegative integer linear combination of its gamma-vector entries. We show that the toric g-vector of the associahedron is the ascent statistic of 123-avoiding parking…

We introduce a generalization of parking functions in which cars are limited in their movement backwards and forwards by two nonnegative integer parameters $k$ and $\ell$, respectively. In this setting, there are $n$ spots on a one-way…

For a directed graph G on vertices {0,1,...,n}, a G-parking function is an n-tuple (b_1,...,b_n) of non-negative integers such that, for every non-empty subset U of {1,...,n}, there exists a vertex j in U for which there are more than b_j…

In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of a random uniform parking function $\pi_n$ of size $n$. We show that the first $k_n$ places $\pi_n(1),\dots,\pi_n(k_n)$ of $\pi_n$ are asymptotically i.i.d. and uniform on $\{1,2,\dots,n\}$,…

Classical Gon\v{c}arov polynomials arose in numerical analysis as a basis for the solutions of the Gon\v{c}arov interpolation problem. These polynomials provide a natural algebraic tool in the enumerative theory of parking functions. By…

We recall that unit interval parking functions of length $n$ are a subset of parking functions in which every car parks in its preference or in the spot after its preference, and Fubini rankings of length $n$ are rankings of $n$ competitors…
