The Tutte polynomial is a fundamental invariant of graphs and matroids. In this article, we define a generalization of the Tutte polynomial to oriented graphs and regular oriented matroids. To any regular oriented matroid $N$, we associate…
Conjectured links between the distribution of values taken by the characteristic polynomials of random orthogonal matrices and that for certain families of L-functions at the centre of the critical strip are used to motivate a series of…
The Generalized Hamming weights and their relative version, which generalize the minimum distance of a linear code, are relevant to numerous applications, including coding on the wire-tap channel of type II, $t$-resilient functions,…
This book is mainly an exposition of the author's works and his joint works with his former students on explicit representations of finite-dimensional simple Lie algebras, related partial differential equations, linear orthogonal algebraic…
Matroids generalize the familiar notion of linear dependence from linear algebra. Following a brief discussion of founding work in computability and matroids, we use the techniques of reverse mathematics to determine the logical strength of…
The construction of the universal ring of Witt vectors is related to Lazard's factorizations of free monoids by means of a noncommutative analogue. This is done by associating to a code a specialization of noncommutative symmetric…
A systematic way of constructing Grassmannian codes endowed with the subspace distance as lifts of matrix codes over the prime field $GF(p)$ is introduced. The matrix codes are $GF(p)$-subspaces of the ring $M_2(GF(p))$ of $2 \times 2$…
Linear codes with a few weights are very important in coding theory and have attracted a lot of attention. In this paper, we present a construction of $q$-ary linear codes from trace and norm functions over finite fields. The weight…
Weighted poset block metric is a generalization of weighted poset metric introduced by Panek et al. ([\ref{panek}]) and the metric for linear error-block codes introduced by Feng et al. ([\ref{FENG}]). This type of metrics includes many…
Rough sets are efficient for data pre-processing in data mining. Matroids are based on linear algebra and graph theory, and have a variety of applications in many fields. Both rough sets and matroids are closely related to lattices. For a…
Combinatorial rigidity theory seeks to describe the rigidity or flexibility of bar-joint frameworks in R^d in terms of the structure of the underlying graph G. The goal of this article is to broaden the foundations of combinatorial rigidity…
The linear codes with a few weights have been applied widely in combinatorial designs, secret sharing, association schemes, authentication codes and strongly regular graphs. In this paper, we first correct an erroneous result about the…
In this paper, we study the third weight of generalized Reed-Muller codes. We prove under some restrictive condition that the third weight of generalized Reed-Muller codes depends on the third weight of generalized Reed-Muller codes of…
For the past decades, linear codes with few weights have been widely studied, since they have applications in space communications, data storage and cryptography. In this paper, a class of binary linear codes is constructed and their weight…
Perfect codes are arguably the most fascinating structures in combinatorial coding theory, and their classification and weight distribution are of considerable interest. This classification also involves the analysis of some related…
We investigate linear and additive codes in partially ordered Hamming-like spaces that satisfy the extension property, meaning that automorphisms of ideals extend to automorphisms of the poset. The codes are naturally described in terms of…
Ferroni and Larson gave a combinatorial interpretation of the braid Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials in terms of series-parallel matroids. As a consequence, they confirmed an explicit formula for the leading Kazhdan-Lusztig coefficients of braid…
We introduce the notion of a matroid M over a commutative ring R, assigning to every subset of the ground set an R-module according to some axioms. When R is a field, we recover matroids. When R=$\mathbb{Z}$, and when R is a DVR, we get…
Brylawski proved the coefficients of the Tutte polynomial of a matroid satisfy a set of linear relations. We extend these relations to a generalization of the Tutte polynomial that includes greedoids and antimatroids. This leads to families…
We study the problem of counting lattice points of a polytope that are weighted by an Ehrhart quasi-polynomial of a family of parametric polytopes. As applications one can compute integrals and maximum values of such quasi-polynomials, as…
