We develop a diagrammatic categorification of the polynomial ring $Z[x]$. Our categorification satisfies a version of Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand reciprocity property with the indecomposable projective modules corresponding to $x^n$ and…

The coefficients occurring in summation formulae of the Lubbock type are shown to be generalised Bernoulli polynomials which turn up in subdivision questions such as quantum field theory around a conical singularity and on spherical lunes.…

We consider polynomials of the form $\operatorname{s}_\lambda(y_1^{[\varkappa_1]},\ldots,y_n^{[\varkappa_n]})$, where $\lambda$ is an integer partition, $\operatorname{s}_\lambda$ is the Schur polynomial associated to $\lambda$, and…

The Ap\'ery polynomials are given by $$A_n(x)=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom nk^2\binom{n+k}k^2x^k\ \ (n=0,1,2,\ldots).$$ (Those $A_n=A_n(1)$ are Ap\'ery numbers.) Let $p$ be an odd prime. We show that…

We introduce concepts of "recursive polynomial remainder sequence (PRS)" and "recursive subresultant," along with investigation of their properties. A recursive PRS is defined as, if there exists the GCD (greatest common divisor) of initial…

A one-parameter generalisation R_{\lambda}(X;b) of the symmetric Macdonald polynomials and interpolations Macdonald polynomials is studied from the point of view of branching rules. We establish a Pieri formula, evaluation symmetry,…

H. Lenstra has pointed out that a cubic polynomial of the form (x-a)(x-b)(x-c) + r(x-d)(x-e), where {a,b,c,d,e} is some permutation of {0,1,2,3,4}, is irreducible modulo 5 because every possible linear factor divides one summand but not the…

This is an introduction to algebraic combinatorics, written for a quarter-long graduate course. It starts with a rigorous introduction to formal power series with some combinatorial applications, then discusses integer partitions (proving…

A Littlewood polynomial is a single-variable polynomial all of whose coefficients lie in $\{ \pm 1\}$. We establish the leading term asymptotics of the number of reciprocal or skew-reciprocal Littlewood polynomials with square discriminant.…

We compute the sum and the alternating sum of the reciprocals of triangular numbers using two standard methods from calculus: a telescoping series approach and a power series approach. We then extend these results to generalized…

We prove the following variant of Marstrand's theorem about projections of cartesian products of sets: Let $K_1,...,K_n$ Borel subsets of $\mathbb R^{m_1},... ,\mathbb R^{m_n}$ respectively, and $\pi:\mathbb R^{m_1}\times...\times\mathbb…

We present counting methods for some special classes of multivariate polynomials over a finite field, namely the reducible ones, the s-powerful ones (divisible by the s-th power of a nonconstant polynomial), and the relatively irreducible…

In this paper, we present the compositional inverses of several classes permutation polynomials of the form $\sum_{i=1}^kb_i\left({\rm Tr}_m^{mn}(x)^{t_i}+\delta\right)^{s_i}+f_1(x)$, where $1\leq i \leq k,$ $s_i$ are positive integers,…

We consider three types of rings of supersymmetric polynomials: polynomial ones $\Lambda_{m,n}$, partially polynomial $\Lambda_{m,n}^{+y}$ and Laurent supersymmetric rings $\Lambda_{m,n}^{\pm}$. For each type of rings we give their…

In this article, we define and study a geometry and an order on the set of partitions of an even number of objects. One of the definitions involves the partition algebra, a structure of algebra on the set of such partitions depending on an…

We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for a polynomial to be divisible by a cyclotomic polynomials and derive new formulas involving Ramanujan sums as an application of our results. Additionally, we provide new insights into the…

A stationary subdivision scheme generates the full space of polynomials of degree up to $k$ if and only if its mask satisfies sum rules of order $k+1$, or its symbol satisfies zero conditions of order $k+1$. This property is often called…

Let $p$ be a polynomial in the non-commuting variables $(a,x)=(a_1,...,a_{g_a},x_1,...,x_{g_x})$. If $p$ is convex in the variables $x$, then $p$ has degree two in $x$ and moreover, $p$ has the form $p = L + \Lambda ^T \Lambda,$ where $L$…

This paper derives sparse recurrence relations between orthogonal polynomials on a triangle and their partial derivatives, which are analogous to recurrence relations for Jacobi polynomials. We derive these recurrences in a systematic…

A general method of obtaining linear differential equations having polynomial solutions is proposed. The method is based on an equivalence of the spectral problem for an element of the universal enveloping algebra of some Lie algebra in the…
