For $w$ in the symmetric group $S_n$, let $\widetilde C_w$ be the corresponding modified, signless Kazhdan--Lusztig basis element of the type-$A$ Hecke algebra $H_n(q)$. An extension [Ann. Comb. 25, no. 3 (2021) pp. 757--787] of a result of…

Monod introduced in [14] a family of Thompson-like groups which provides natural counterexamples to the von Neumann-Day conjecture. We construct a characterization of conjugacy and invariant and use them to compute centralizers in one group…

We construct finite coherent presentations of plactic monoids of type A. Such coherent presentations express a system of generators and relations for the monoid extended in a coherent way to give a family of generators of the relations…

Let p(z) be a complex polynomial of degree n. Let C be a circle containing its n-1 zeros, having its center in the centroid of these zeros. We prove that C must contain at least int((n-1):2) zeros of its derivative.

We define a centrally symmetric analogue of the cyclic polytope and study its facial structure. We conjecture that our polytopes provide asymptotically the largest number of faces in all dimensions among all centrally symmetric polytopes…

We consider the Laguerre Unitary Ensemble (LUE), the set of $n\times n$ sample covariance matrices $M = \frac{1}{n}X^*X$ where the $m\times n$ ($n \le m$) matrix $X$ has i.i.d. standard complex Gaussian entries. In particular we are…

Let m be a probability measure supported on some infinite and compact set K in the complex plane and let p_n(z) be the corresponding degree n orthonormal polynomial with positive leading coefficient. Let v_n be the normalized zero counting…

We show that the unitary factor U in the polar decomposition of a nonsingular matrix Z = U H is the minimizer for both ||Log(Q^* Z)|| and ||sym (Log(Q^*Z))|| over unitary Q, for any given invertible complex n-times-n matrix Z, for any…

We study one-character CFTs obtained as one-character extensions of the tensor products of a single CFT $\mathcal{C}$. The motivation comes from the fact that $28$ of the $71$ CFTs in the Schelleken's list of $c = 24$ CFTs are such CFTs. We…

This paper is a continuation of [GLT], which develops a level theory and establishes strong character bounds for finite simple groups of linear and unitary type in the case that the centralizer of the element has small order compared to…

In this paper we study the density of polynomials in some $L^2(M)$ spaces. Two choices of the measure $M$ and polynomials are considered: 1) a $(N\times N)$ matrix non-negative Borel measure on $\mathbb{R}$ and vector-valued polynomials…

Let $U$ be a Lie ideal of a 2-torsion free prime $\Gamma $-ring $M$ such that $u\alpha u\in U$ for all $u\in U$ and $\alpha \in\Gamma $. If $T:M\rightarrow M$ is an additive mapping satifying the relation $T(u\alpha u)=T(u)\alpha u$ for all…

A unified approach to the construction of weighing matrices and certain symmetric designs is presented. Assuming the weight $p$ in a weighing matrix $W(n,p)$ is a prime power, it is shown that there is a…

Given an integer $k$, define $C_k$ as the set of integers $n > \max(k,0)$ such that $a^{n-k+1} \equiv a \pmod{n}$ holds for all integers $a$. We establish various multiplicative properties of the elements in $C_k$ and give a sufficient…

Let $W$ be an arbitrary Coxeter group, possibly of infinite rank. We describe a decomposition of the centralizer $Z_W(W_I)$ of an arbitrary parabolic subgroup $W_I$ into the center of $W_I$, a Coxeter group and a subgroup defined by a…

The classical Steinitz theorem asserts that if the origin lies within the interior of the convex hull of a set $S \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, then there are at most $2d$ points in $S$ whose convex hull contains the origin within its interior.…

A submonoid of the additive group $\mathbb{Q}$ is called a Puiseux monoid if it consists of nonnegative rationals. Given a monoid $M$, the set consisting of all nonempty finite subsets of $M$ is also a monoid under the Minkowski sum, and it…

This note is motivated by an old result of Kronecker on monic polynomials with integer coefficients having all their roots in the unit disc. We call such polynomials Kronecker polynomials for short. Let $k(n)$ denote the number of Kronecker…

Planar functions over finite fields give rise to finite projective planes and other combinatorial objects. They exist only in odd characteristic, but recently Zhou introduced an even characteristic analogue which has similar applications.…

Let $C$ be the classical middle third Cantor set. It is well known that $C+C = [0,2]$ (Steinhaus, 1917). (Here $+$ denotes the Minkowski sum.) Let $U$ be the set of $z \in [0,2]$ which have a unique representation as $z = x + y$ with $x, y…
