We demonstrate by breaking the $C_{6}$ symmetry for higher-order at-$\Gamma$ bound states in the continuum (BICs) with topological charge $-2$ in photonic crystals, (i) deterministic generation of off-$\Gamma$ BICs from the at-$\Gamma$ BIC,…
An open conjecture in pattern avoidance theory is that the distribution of the major index among 321-avoiding permutations is distributed unimodally. We construct a formula for this distribution, and in the case of 2 descents prove…
In this paper, we extend the concept of absolutely Ces\`aro boundedness to the fractional case. We construct a weighted shift operator belonging to this class of operators, and we prove that if $T$ is an absolutely Ces\`{a}ro bounded…
We study noncommutative differential structures on the group of permutations $S_N$, defined by conjugacy classes. The 2-cycles class defines an exterior algebra $\Lambda_N$ which is a super analogue of the Fomin-Kirillov algebra $\CE_N$ for…
Binary cyclic codes are worth studying due to their applications and theoretical importance. It is an important problem to construct an infinite family of cyclic codes with large minimum distance $d$ and dual distance $d^{\perp}$. In recent…
This paper studies the bounded confidence model on growing fully-mixed populations. In this model, in addition to the usual opinion clusters, significant secondary clusters of smaller size appear systematically, while those secondary…
A permutation $\tau$ in the symmetric group $S_j$ is minimally overlapping if any two consecutive occurrences of $\tau$ in a permutation $\sigma$ can share at most one element. B\'ona \cite{B} showed that the proportion of minimal…
In this paper, we study the distribution of the number of occurrences of the simplest frame pattern, called the $\mu$ pattern, in $n$-cycles. Given an $n$-cycle $C$, we say that a pair $\langle i,j \rangle$ matches the $\mu$ pattern if $i <…
Here we give a combinatorial interpretation of Solomon's rule for multiplication in the descent algebra of Weyl groups of type $D$, $\Sigma D_n$. From here we show that $\Sigma D_n$ is a homomorphic image of the descent algebra of the…
Let $A_k$ be the set of permutations in the symmetric group $S_k$ with prefix 12. This paper concerns the enumeration of involutions which avoid the set of patterns $A_k$. We present a bijection between symmetric Schroder paths of length…
There is a deep connection between permutations and trees. Certain sub-structures of permutations, called sub-permutations, bijectively map to sub-trees of binary increasing trees. This opens a powerful tool set to study enumerative and…
The $\sigma$-machine was recently introduced by Cerbai, Claesson and Ferrari as a tool to gain a better insight on the problem of sorting permutations with two stacks in series. It consists of two consecutive stacks, which are restricted in…
We consider the bosonic sl(2) sector of the maximally supersymmetric N=4 SYM model and show that anomalous dimension of the twist-3 single-trace composite operators built of scalar fields, recently calculated up to the four-loop order, can…
We study bounded width algebras which are minimal in the sense that every proper reduct does not have bounded width. We show that minimal bounded width algebras can be arranged into a pseudovariety with one basic ternary operation. We…
We consider the enumeration of pattern-avoiding involutions, focusing in particular on sets defined by avoiding a single pattern of length 4. As we demonstrate, the numerical data for these problems demonstrates some surprising behavior.…
We obtain new explicit pseudorandom generators for several computational models involving groups. Our main results are as follows: 1. We consider read-once group-products over a finite group $G$, i.e., tests of the form $\prod_{i=1}^n…
The conjugacy growth function counts the number of distinct conjugacy classes in a ball of radius $n$. We give a lower bound for the conjugacy growth of certain branch groups, among them the Grigorchuk group. This bound is a function of…
Let G=SL_3(Z/pZ), p a prime. Let A be a set of generators of G. Then A grows under the group operation. To be precise: denote by |S| the number of elements of a finite set S. Assume |A| < |G|^{1-\epsilon} for some \epsilon>0. Then |A\cdot…
In 2003, Cohn and Umans proposed a group-theoretic approach to bounding the exponent of matrix multiplication. Previous work within this approach ruled out certain families of groups as a route to obtaining $\omega = 2$, while other…
A mixed dihedral group is a group $H$ with two disjoint subgroups $X$ and $Y$, each elementary abelian of order $2^n$, such that $H$ is generated by $X\cup Y$, and $H/H'\cong X\times Y$. In this paper, for each $n\geq 2$, we construct a…
