Reifegerste and independently, Petersen and Tenner studied a statistic $\mathrm{drops}()$ on permutations in $\mathfrak{S}_n$. Two other studied statistics on $\mathfrak{S}_n$ are $\mathrm{depth}$ and $\mathrm{exc}$. Using descents in ${\it…
A doubly infinite set of series expansion for $1/\pi$ are reported. They follow trivially from a formal expansion for the quotient of the values taken by the gamma function for two (complex) arguments differing by an integer plus one half,…
The critical region of the hierarchical reference theory (HRT) is investigated further. This extends an earlier work by us where the critical properties of the HRT were concluded indirectly via another accurate but somewhat different…
We derive an identity involving Horadam numbers. Numerous new identities as well as those found in the existing literature are subsumed in this single identity.
In this note we present a symbolic pseudo-differential calculus on the Heisenberg group. We particularise to this group our general construction [4,3,2] of pseudo-differential calculi on graded groups. The relation between the Weyl…
The action of a finite reflection group (type A) on its set of roots is understood as a permutation representation or group action. We show that this representation is an induced representation from a certain kind of parabolic subgroup.…
During the course of an ongoing work on the small-$x$ behaviour of parton distribution functions, some identities have been found which involve Stirling numbers of the first and the second kind, as well as binomial coefficients. Without any…
We study the complex reflection groups G(r,p,n). By considering these groups as subgroups of the wreath products Z_r wr S_n, and by using Clifford theory, we define combinatorial parameters and descent representations of G(r,p,n),…
We give several new formulas which are useful for Schubert Calculus associated with the orthogonal groups and related orthogonal degeneracy loci.
As properties of poly-Bernoulli numbers, a number of formulas such as the duality formula, explicit formula using the Stirling numbers of the second kind and periodicity for negative upper-index have been established. For the multi-indexed…
Inspired by the Gan-Gross-Prasad conjecture and the descent problem for classical groups, in this paper we study the descents of unipotent representations of unitary groups over finite fields. We give the first descents of unipotent…
A Bernstein-type exponential inequality for (generalized) canonical U-statistics of order 2 is obtained and the Rosenthal and Hoffmann-J{\o}rgensen inequalities for sums of independent random variables are extended to (generalized)…
It is shown that every bi-Lipschitz bijection from $\mathbb{Z}$ to itself is at a bounded $L_{\infty}$ distance from either the identity or the reflection. We then comment on the group-theoretic properties of the action of bi-Lipschitz…
We rewrite Arthur's asymptotic formula for weighted orbital integrals on real groups with the aid of a residue calculus and extend the resulting formula to the Schwartz space. Then we extract the available information about the coefficients…
We obtain new recurrence relations, an explicit formula, and convolution identities for higher order geometric polynomials. These relations generalize known results for geometric polynomials, and lead to congruences for higher order…
The descent algebra of the symmetric group, over a field of non-zero characteristic p, is studied. A homomorphism into the algebra of generalised p-modular characters of the symmetric group is defined. This is then used to determine the…
Given any two sequences of complex numbers, we establish simple relations between their binomial convolution and the binomial convolution of their individual binomial transforms. We employ these relations to derive new identities involving…
This paper explores the study of the general Hermite constant associated to the general linear group and its irreducible representations, as defined by T. Watanabe. To that end, a height, which naturally applies to flag varieties, is built…
We study the quiver of the descent algebra of a finite Coxeter group W. The results include a derivation of the quiver of the descent algebra of types A and B. Our approach is to study the descent algebra as an algebra constructed from the…
In this series of seven papers, predominantly by means of elementary analysis, we establish a number of identities related to the Riemann zeta function. Whilst this paper is mainly expository, some of the formulae reported in it are…
