Let $\Lambda$ be the space of symmetric functions and $V_k$ be the subspace spanned by the modified Schur functions $\{S_\lambda[X/(1-t)]\}_{\lambda_1\leq k}$. We introduce a new family of symmetric polynomials,…
In recent works, [20],[21], descendent integrals on the moduli space of Riemann surfaces with boundary were defined. It was conjectured in [20] that the generating function of these integrals satisfies the open KdV equations. In this paper…
In an effort to further understanding $q,t$-Catalan statistics, a new statistic on Dyck paths called $\mathtt{depth}$ was proposed in Pappe, Paul and Schilling (2022) and was shown to be jointly equi-distributed with the well-known…
This paper presents a noncommutative theory of symmetric functions, based on the notion of quasi-determinant. We begin with a formal theory, corresponding to the case of symmetric functions in an infinite number of independent variables.…
I continue the investigation of a q-analogue of the convolution on the line started in a joint work with Koornwinder and based on a formal definition due to Kempf and Majid. Two different ways of approximating functions by means of the…
We establish for $2 \le k \le n-1$ the strict concavity of the function $f_k(\lambda)=\log(\sigma_k(\lambda))$ on a subset of the positive cone $\Gamma_n=\{\lambda=(\lambda_{1}, \lambda_{2}, \cdots,\lambda_{n})\in \mathbb{R}^n;…
The chromatic symmetric function (CSF) of Dyck paths of Stanley and its Shareshian-Wachs $q$-analogue have important connections to Hessenberg varieties, diagonal harmonics and LLT polynomials. In the, so called, abelian case they are also…
Given a coprime pair $(m,n)$ of positive integers, rational Catalan numbers $\frac{1}{m+n} \binom{m+n}{m,n}$ counts two combinatorial objects:rational $(m,n)$-Dyck paths are lattice paths in the $m\times n$ rectangle that never go below the…
We prove that if (C,0) is a reduced curve germ on a rational surface singularity (X,0) then its delta invariant can be recovered by a concrete expression associated with the embedded topological type of the pair (X,C). Furthermore, we also…
Extending the symmetric framework of D'Adderio and Mellit, we establish a nonsymmetric generalization of the compositional Delta theorem. Building on Blasiak et al.'s theory of flagged LLT polynomials, we derive signed and unsigned…
We show the existence of semiorthogonal decompositions of Donaldson-Thomas categories for $(-1)$-shifted cotangent derived stacks associated with $\Theta$-stratifications on them. Our main result gives an analogue of window theorem for…
We derive explicit rational generating functions for weighted tilings of $2k\times n$ rectangles by straight $k\times 1$ tiles. Our approach combines a decomposition by fault lines with a Hadamard-product framework. Tools from algebraic…
Let $Q_k(x)$ be Stanley's explicit denominator for the dimer-covering generating function $F_k(x)=\sum_{n\ge0}A_{k,n}x^n$ of $k\times n$ rectangles. Stanley conjectured in 1985 that $Q_k(x)$ has only simple roots; this longstanding…
In a simple graph, a shunt is a symmetry which sends an edge to an incident edge (without fixing their shared vertex). The orbit of this edge under the shunt forms a consistent cycle. The important theorem of Biggs and Conway says that in a…
In The Delta Conjecture (arxiv:1509.07058), Haglund, Remmel and Wilson introduced a four variable $q,t,z,w$ Catalan polynomial, so named because the specialization of this polynomial at the values $(q,t,z,w) = (1,1,0,0)$ is equal to the…
The theory of $q$-analogs frequently occurs in a number of areas, including the fractals and dynamical systems. The $q$-derivatives and $q$-integrals play a prominent role in the study of $q$-deformed quantum mechanical simple harmonic…
The \emph{$q,t$-Catalan numbers} $C_n(q,t)$ are polynomials in $q$ and $t$ that reduce to the ordinary Catalan numbers when $q=t=1$. These polynomials have important connections to representation theory, algebraic geometry, and symmetric…
This paper develops a multipole expansion method for the quasi-periodic elastic single layer potential $\mathcal{S}_D^{\alpha,0}$ associated with the Kelvin tensor in one-dimensional periodic arrays. A key step in this approach is the…
We study the $(k+1,k)$ diagonal map for $k=2,3,4,...$. We call this map $\Delta_k$. The map $\Delta_1$ is the pentagram map and $\Delta_k$ is a generalization. $\Delta_k$ does not preserve convexity, but we prove that $\Delta_k$ preserves a…
We define two symmetric $q,t$-Catalan polynomials in terms of the area and depth statistic and in terms of the dinv and dinv of depth statistics. We prove symmetry using an involution on plane trees. The same involution proves symmetry of…
