We give several bijections among restricted Motzkin paths, explaining why various parameters on these paths are equidistributed. For example, the number of doublerise-free Motzkin paths of length n is the same as the number of peak-free…
This paper is devoted to the random generation of particular colored necklaces for which the number of beads of a given color is constrained (these necklaces are called v-balanced). We propose an efficient sampler (its expected time…
Given a finite acyclic quiver Q with path algebra kQ, Ingalls and Thomas have exhibited a bijection between the set of Morita equivalence classes of support-tilting modules and the set of thick subcategories of mod kQ and they have…
We show that for any polynomial $f: \mathbb{Z}\to \mathbb{Z}$ with positive leading coefficient and irreducible over $\mathbb{Q}$, if $N$ is large enough then there are two strings of consecutive positive integers $I_{1}=\{n_1-m,\ldots,…
q-Supernomial coefficients are generalizations of the q-binomial coefficients. They can be defined as the coefficients of the Hall-Littlewood symmetric function in a product of the complete symmetric functions or the elementary symmetric…
We present three proofs of an observation of Ahmadi on the number of irreducible polynomials over $\text{GF}(2)$ with certain traces and cotraces, the most interesting of which uses an explicit natural bijection. We also present two proofs…
In 2021, Brock, Elkies, and Jordan generalized the theory of periodic continued fractions (PCFs) over $\mathbb{Z}$ to the ring of integers in a number field. In particular, they considered the case where the number field is an intermediate…
Stanley and F\'eray gave a formula for the irreducible character of the symmetric group related to a multi-rectangular Young diagram. This formula shows that the character is a polynomial in the multi-rectangular coordinates and gives an…
In Pacific J. Math. 292 (2018), 223-238, Shareshian and Woodroofe asked if for every positive integer $n$ there exist primes $p$ and $q$ such that, for all integers $k$ with $1 \leq k \leq n-1$, the binomial coefficient $\binom{n}{k}$ is…
Let $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ denote the ring of polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q$, the finite field of $q$ elements. We prove an estimate for fractional parts of polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ satisfying a certain divisibility condition…
We establish a bijection between the set of rigged configurations and the set of tensor products of Kirillov--Reshetikhin crystals of type $D^{(1)}_n$ in full generality. We prove the invariance of rigged configurations under the action of…
It is consistent for every (1 <= n< omega) that (2^omega = omega_n) and there is a function (F:[omega_n]^{< omega}-> omega) such that every finite set can be written at most (2^n-1) ways as the union of two distinct monocolored sets. If GCH…
We prove a conjecture of J.-C. Novelli, J.-Y. Thibon, and L. K. Williams (2010) about an equivalence of two triples of statistics on permutations. To prove this conjecture, we construct a bijection through different combinatorial objects,…
Following T. H. Chan, we consider the problem of approximation of a given rational fraction a/q by sums of several rational fractions a_1/q_1, ..., a_n/q_n with smaller denominators. We show that in the special cases of n=3 and n=4 and…
Promotion and rowmotion are intriguing actions in dynamical algebraic combinatorics which have inspired much work in recent years. In this paper, we study $P$-strict labelings of a finite, graded poset $P$ of rank $n$ and labels at most…
Given sets $F_1, \ldots ,F_n$, a {\em partial rainbow function} is a partial choice function of the sets $F_i$. A {\em partial rainbow set} is the range of a partial rainbow function. Aharoni and Berger \cite{AhBer} conjectured that if $M$…
The Kaneko-Zagier conjecture states that finite and symmetric multiple zeta values satisfy the same relations. In the previous work with H.~Bachmann and Y.~Takeyama, we proved that the finite and symmetric multiple zeta value are obtained…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph of order $n$. A closed distance magic labeling of $G$ is a bijection $\ell \colon V(G)\rightarrow \{1,\ldots ,n\}$ for which there exists a positive integer $k$ such that $\sum_{x\in N[v]}\ell (x)=k$ for all $v\in V…
We examine combinatorial counting functions with two parameters, $n$ and $q$. For fixed $q$, these functions are (quasi-)polynomial in $n$. As $q$ varies, the degree of this polynomial is itself polynomial in $q$, as are the leading…
In proving the Fermionic formulae, combinatorial bijection called the Kerov--Kirillov--Reshetikhin (KKR) bijection plays the central role. It is a bijection between the set of highest paths and the set of rigged configurations. In this…
