A cubic partition consists of partition pairs $(\lambda,\mu)$ such that $\vert\lambda\vert+\vert\mu\vert=n$ where $\mu$ involves only even integers but no restriction is placed on $\lambda$. This paper initiates the notion of generalized…

For integers $k,t \geq 2$ and $1\leq r \leq t$ let $D_k(r,t;n)$ be the number of parts among all $k$-regular partitions (i.e., partitions of $n$ where all parts have multiplicity less than $k$) of $n$ that are congruent to $r$ modulo $t$.…

Systems of identical particles with equal charge are studied under a special type of confinement. These classical particles are free to move inside some convex region S and on the boundary of it $\Omega$ (the $S^{d-1}-$ sphere, in our…

The production of quantum field excitations or particles in cosmological spacetimes is a hallmark prediction of curved quantum field theory. The generation of cosmological perturbations from quantum fluctuations in the early universe…

A triangular partition is a partition whose Ferrers diagram can be separated from its complement (as a subset of $\mathbb{N}^2$) by a straight line. Having their origins in combinatorial number theory and computer vision, triangular…

We study how efficiently a $k$-element set $S\subseteq[n]$ can be learned from a uniform superposition $|S\rangle$ of its elements. One can think of $|S\rangle=\sum_{i\in S}|i\rangle/\sqrt{|S|}$ as the quantum version of a uniformly random…

We introduce the problem of *shadow tomography*: given an unknown $D$-dimensional quantum mixed state $\rho$, as well as known two-outcome measurements $E_{1},\ldots,E_{M}$, estimate the probability that $E_{i}$ accepts $\rho$, to within…

If $[\lambda(j)]$ is a multipartition of the positive integer $n$ (a sequence of partitions with total size $n$), and $\mu$ is a partition of $n$, we study the number $K_{[\lambda(j)]\mu}$ of sequences of semistandard Young tableaux of…

Let $\lambda$ be a partition of the positive integer $n$, selected uniformly at random among all such partitions. Corteel et al. (1999) proposed three different procedures of sampling parts of $\lambda$ at random. They obtained limiting…

We study collisions of many point-like particles in three-dimensional anti-de Sitter space, generalizing the known result with two particles. We show how to construct exact solutions corresponding to the formation of either a black hole or…

We present a polynomiality property of the Littlewood-Richardson coefficients c_{\lambda\mu}^{\nu}. The coefficients are shown to be given by polynomials in \lambda, \mu and \nu on the cones of the chamber complex of a vector partition…

A decade ago two groups of authors, Karasev, Hubard and Aronov, and Blagojevi\'c and Ziegler, have shown that the regular convex partitions of a Euclidean space into $n$ parts yield a solution to the generalised Nandakumar and Ramana-Rao…

We compute the supersymmetric partition function on L(r,1)xS^1, the lens space index, for 4d gauge theories related by supersymmetric dualities and involving non simply-connected groups. This computation is sensitive to the global…

Consider an opaque medium which contains 3D particles. All particles are convex bodies of the same shape, but they vary in size. The particles are randomly positioned and oriented within the medium and cannot be observed directly. Taking a…

We are discussing the theorem about the volume of a set $A$ of $Z^n$ having a small doubling property $|2A| < Ck, k=|A|$ and oher problems of Structure Theory of Set Addition (Additive Combinatorics).

The dispersion of a point set $P\subset[0,1]^d$ is the volume of the largest box with sides parallel to the coordinate axes, which does not intersect $P$. Here, we show a construction of low-dispersion point sets, which can be deduced from…

Recently, Andrews, Bhattacharjee and Dastidar introduced the concept of $k$-measure of an integer partition, and proved a surprising identity that the number of partitions of $n$ which have $2$-measure $m$ is equal to the number of…

In this survey, we discuss volumetric and combinatorial results concerning (mostly finite) intersections or unions of balls (mostly of equal radii) in the $d$-dimensional real vector space, mostly equipped with the Euclidean norm. Our first…

We establish a "neighborhood" variant of the cubical KKM lemma and the Lebesgue covering theorem and deduce a discretized version which is a "neighborhood" variant of Sperner's lemma on the cube. The main result is the following: for any…

We obtain estimates for the number $p_d(n)$ of $(d-1)$-dimensional integer partitions of a number $n$. It is known that the two-sided inequality $C_1(d)n^{1-1/d}<\log p_d(n)< C_2(d)n^{1-1/d}$ is always true and that $C_1(d)>1$ whenever…
