The super-Macdonald polynomials, introduced by Sergeev and Veselov, generalise the Macdonald polynomials to (arbitrary numbers of) two kinds of variables, and they are eigenfunctions of the deformed Macdonald-Ruijsenaars operators…

For primes $\ell$ and nonnegative integers $a$, we study the partition functions $$p_\ell(a;n):= \#\{\lambda \vdash n : \text{ord}_\ell(H(\lambda))=a\},$$ where $H(\lambda)$ denotes the product of hook lengths of a partition $\lambda$.…

Double Poisson brackets, introduced by M. Van den Bergh in 2004, are noncommutative analogs of the usual Poisson brackets in the sense of the Kontsevich-Rosenberg principle: they induce Poisson structures on the space of $N$-dimensional…

George Andrews [\emph{Bull. Amer. Math. Soc.}, 2007, 561--573] introduced the idea of a \emph{signed partiton} of an integer; similar to an ordinary integer partitions, but where some of the parts could be negative. Further, Andrews…

We show how the topological string partition function, which is known to capture the degeneracies of a gas of BPS spinning M2-branes in M-theory compactified to 5 dimensions, is related to a 4-dimensional D-brane system that consists of…

We obtain a unification of two refinements of Euler's partition theorem respectively due to Bessenrodt and Glaisher. A specialization of Bessenrodt's insertion algorithm for a generalization of the Andrews-Olsson partition identity is used…

In 1857 Sylvester established an elegant theory that certain counting functions (which he termed denumerants) are quasi-polynomials by decomposing them into periodic and non-periodic parts. Each component of the decomposition, called a…

Simplicial versions of topological abelian gauge theories are constructed which reproduce the continuum expressions for the partition function and Wilson expectation value of linked loops, expressible in terms of R-torsion and linking…

This chapter presents a review of the dividend discount models starting from the basic models (Williams 1938, Gordon and Shapiro 1956) to more recent and complex models (Ghezzi and Piccardi 2003, Barbu et al. 2017, D'Amico and De Blasis…

The restricted partition function $p_{N}(n)$ counts the partitions of $n$ into at most $N$ parts. In the nineteenth century Sylvester showed that these partitions can be expressed as a sum of $k$-periodic quasi-polynomials ($1\leq k\leq N$)…

We study the refined and unrefined crystal/BPS partition functions of D6-D2-D0 brane bound states for all toric Calabi-Yau threefolds without compact 4-cycles and some non-toric examples. They can be written as products of (generalized)…

To every poset P, Stanley (1986) associated two polytopes, the order polytope and the chain polytope, whose geometric properties reflect the combinatorial qualities of P. This construction allows for deep insights into combinatorics by way…

The exchange operator formalism in polar coordinates, previously considered for the Calogero-Marchioro-Wolfes problem, is generalized to a recently introduced, infinite family of exactly solvable and integrable Hamiltonians $H_k$, $k=1$, 2,…

We give a new proof of a partition theorem popularly known as Elder's theorem, but which is also credited to Stanley and Fine. We extend the theorem to the context of colored partitions (or prefabs). More specifically, we give analogous…

We introduce a family of univariate polynomials indexed by integer partitions. At prime powers, they count the number of subspaces in a finite vector space that transform under a regular diagonal matrix in a specified manner. This…

We report on the extraction of dihadron fragmentation functions (DiFF) from the semiinclusive production of two hadron pairs in back-to-back jets in e+e- annihilation. A nonzero asymmetry in the correlation of azimuthal orientations of…

We present an Almansi-type decomposition for polynomials with Clifford coefficients, and more generally for slice-regular functions on Clifford algebras. The classical result by Emilio Almansi, published in 1899, dealt with polyharmonic…

Linked partitions are introduced by Dykema in the study of transforms in free probability theory, whereas permutation tableaux are introduced by Steingr\'{i}msson and Williams in the study of totally positive Grassmannian cells. Let…

In [5] Cauchon introduced the so-called deleting derivations algorithm. This algorithm was first used in noncommutative algebra to prove catenarity in generic quantum matrices, and then to show that torus-invariant primes in these algebras…
