Given a finite vector space $V=\mathbb{F}_q^n$, the $q$-analogue of a graph, called a $q$-graph, is a pair $\Gamma=(\mathcal{V},\mathcal{E})$, where $\mathcal{V}$ is the set of $1$-dimensional subspaces of $V$ and $\mathcal{E}$ is a subset…

Given a connected graph G with p vertices and q edges, the G-graphicahedron is a vertex-transitive simple abstract polytope of rank q whose edge-graph is isomorphic to a Cayley graph of the symmetric group S_p associated with G. The paper…

We consider a two-parameter family of triangles whose $(n,k)$-th entry (counting the initial entry as the $(0,0)$-th entry) is the number of tilings of $N$-boards (which are linear arrays of $N$ unit square cells for any nonnegative integer…

A symmetry of $(t,q)$-Eulerian numbers of type $B$ is combinatorially proved by defining an involution preserving many important statistics on the set of permutation tableaux of type $B$. This involution also proves a symmetry of the…

We present new, unified proofs for the cell-like, $\mathbb{Z}/p$-, and $\mathbb{Q}$-resolution theorems. Our arguments employ extensions that are much simpler then those used by our predecessors. The techniques allow us to solve problems…

We study integrals over Hermitian supermatrices of arbitrary size $p+q$, that are parametrized by an external field $X$ and a source $Y$, of respective size $m+n$ and $p+q$. We show that these integrals exhibit a simple topological…

A combinatorial substitution is a map over tilings which allows to define sets of tilings with a strong hierarchical structure. In this paper, we show that such sets of tilings are sofic, that is, can be enforced by finitely many local…

Series of finite dimensional representations of the superalgebras spl(p,q) can be formulated in terms of linear differential operators acting on a suitable space of polynomials. We sketch the general ingredients necessary to construct these…

Using the technique developed by Fronsdal and Galindo (Lett. Math. Phys. 27 (1993) 57) for studying the Hopf duality between the quantum algebras $Fun_{p,q}(GL(2))$ and $U_{p,q}(gl(2))$, the Hopf structure of $U_{p,q}(gl(1|1))$, dual to…

We introduce polynomial sets of $(p,q)$-Appell type and give some of their characterizations. The algebraic properties of the set of all polynomial sequences of $(p,q)$-Appell type are studied. Next, we give a recurrence relation and a…

In 2008 Br\"and\'en proved a $(p,q)$-analogue of the $\gamma$-expansion formula for Eulerian polynomials and conjectured the divisibility of the $\gamma$-coefficient $\gamma_{n,k}(p,q)$ by $(p+q)^k$. As a follow-up, in 2012 Shin and Zeng…

In the present paper, as we did previously in [7], we investigate the relations between the geometric properties of tilings and the algebraic properties of associated relational structures. Our study is motivated by the existence of…

A finite set of integers $A$ tiles the integers by translations if $\mathbb{Z}$ can be covered by pairwise disjoint translated copies of $A$. Restricting attention to one tiling period, we have $A\oplus B=\mathbb{Z}_M$ for some…

We announce a series of results on the combinatorial study of the q-Catalan triangle (C_{n,k}(q)), defined by C_{n,0}(q)=q^{n(n-1)/2} and C_{n,k}(q)=C_{n,k-1}(q)+q^{n-k-1}C_{n-1,k}(q). We establish combinatorial interpretations via a…

Let $p$ be a prime and $q$ a power of $p$. For $n\ge 0$, let $g_{n,q}\in\Bbb F_p[{\tt x}]$ be the polynomial defined by the functional equation $\sum_{a\in\Bbb F_q}({\tt x}+a)^n=g_{n,q}({\tt x}^q-{\tt x})$. When is $g_{n,q}$ a permutation…

We present a substitution rule for a rhomb tiling with 10-fold rotational symmetry. The tiling is closely related to the Penrose rhomb tilings and can be obtained from the pentagrid construction. We introduce a finite set of marked…

We give a combinatorial formula for the character of a finite-dimensional irreducible representation of the periplectic Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{p}(n)$. The character of irreducible module $L(\mu)$ is given by a cancellation-free…

In the present article, we introduce a $(p,q)$-analogue of the poly-Euler polynomials and numbers by using the $(p,q)$-polylogarithm function. These new sequences are generalizations of the poly-Euler numbers and polynomials. We give…

We find new properties of the topological transition polynomial of embedded graphs, $Q(G)$. We use these properties to explain the striking similarities between certain evaluations of Bollob\'as and Riordan's ribbon graph polynomial,…

We obtain new combinatorial formulae for modified Hall--Littlewood polynomials, for matrix elements of the transition matrix between the elementary symmetric functions and Hall-Littlewood's ones, and for the number of rational points over…
