This paper establishes a novel combinatorial framework at the intersection of Lie theory and algebraic combinatorics, based on a generalization of the Kostant game. We begin by reviewing the foundations of root systems, the classification…

For a graph embedded into a surface, we relate many combinatorial parameters of the cycle matroid of the graph and the bond matroid of the dual graph with the topological parameters of the embedding. This will give an expression of the…

From a group action on a space, define a variant of the configuration space by insisting that no two points inhabit the same orbit. When the action is almost free, this "orbit configuration space" is the complement of an arrangement of…

Recent studies have revealed that neural networks learn interpretable algorithms for many simple problems. However, little is known about how these algorithms emerge during training. In this article, I study the training dynamics of a small…

The motion of a particle that suffers the influence of simple inner (outer) periodic perturbations when it evolves around a center of attraction modeled by an inverse square law plus a quadrupole-like term is studied. The equations of…

We propose efficient algorithms for enumerating the notorious combinatorial structures of maximal planar graphs, called canonical orderings and Schnyder woods, and the related classical graph drawings by de Fraysseix, Pach, and Pollack…

We describe a computational method for constructing a coarse combinatorial model of some dynamical system in which the macroscopic states are given by elementary cycling motions of the system. Our method is in particular applicable to time…

This paper considers a hyperplane arrangement constructed with a subset of a set of all simple paths in a graph. A connection of the constructed arrangement to the maximum matching problem is established. Moreover, the problem of finding…

Binomial Cayley graphs are obtained by considering the binomial coefficient of the weight function of a given Cayley graph and a natural number. We introduce these objects and study two families: one associated with symmetric groups and the…

These notes are designed to offer some (perhaps new) codicils to related work, a list of problems and conjectures seeking (preferably) combinatorial proofs. The main items are Eulerian polynomials and hook/contents of Young diagram, mostly…

Orbit portraits were introduced by Milnor as a combinatorial tool to describe the patterns of all periodic dynamical rays landing on a periodic cycle of a quadratic polynomial. This encodes information about the dynamics and the parameter…

We define a family of combinatorial objects, which we call Baxter posets. We prove that Baxter posets are counted by the Baxter numbers by showing that they are the adjacency posets of diagonal rectangulations. Given a diagonal…

We first find the combinatorial degree of any map $f:V\to F$ where $F$ is a finite field and $V$ is a finite-dimensional vector space over $F$. We then simplify and generalize a certain construction due to Chein and Goodaire that was used…

We introduce the notion of quasi-orthogonal cocycle. This is motivated in part by the maximal determinant problem for square $\{\pm 1\}$-matrices of size congruent to $2$ modulo $4$. Quasi-orthogonal cocycles are analogous to the orthogonal…
