Using several numerical invariants, we study a partition of the space of line arrangements in the complex projective plane, given by the intersection lattice types. We offer also a new characterization of the free plane curves using the…
The following problem is studied: describe the triplets $(\Omega,g,\mu)$, $\mu=\rho\,dx$, where $g= (g^{ij}(x))$ is the (co)metric associated with the symmetric second order differential operator $L(f) = \frac{1}{\rho}\sum_{ij} \partial_i…
We give a combinatorial proof of a lattice point identity involving a lattice polygon and its dual, generalizing the formula $area(\Delta) + area(\Delta^*) = 6$ for reflexive $\Delta$. The identity is equivalent to the stringy Libgober-Wood…
A lattice path in $\mathbb{Z}^d$ is a sequence $\nu_1,\nu_2,\ldots,\nu_k\in\mathbb{Z}^d$ such that the steps $\nu_i-\nu_{i-1}$ lie in a subset $\mathbf{S}$ of $\mathbb{Z}^d$ for all $i=2,\ldots,k$. Let $T_{m,n}$ be the $m\times n$ table in…
The visibility of lattice points from the origin along a polynomial family of curves constitutes a significant generalization of visibility along straight lines. Following the classical notion, where the density equals 1/2, and its…
The notion of multidimensional quadrilateral lattice is introduced. It is shown that such a lattice is characterized by a system of integrable discrete nonlinear equations. Different useful formulations of the system are given. The…
I derive a loop representation for the canonical and grand-canonical partition functions for an interacting four-component Fermi gas in one spatial dimension and an arbitrary external potential. The representation is free of the "sign…
Let $C(X,I)$ be the lattice of all continuous functions on a compact Hausdorff space $X$ with values in the unit interval $I=[0,1]$. We show that for compact Hausdorff spaces $X$ and $Y$ and (not necessarily contain constants) sublattices…
The Dinitz conjecture states that, for each $n$ and for every collection of $n$-element sets $S_{ij}$, an $n\times n$ partial latin square can be found with the $(i,j)$\<th entry taken from $S_{ij}$. The analogous statement for $(n-1)\times…
We consider a class of lattice paths with certain restrictions on their ascents and down steps and use them as building blocks to construct various families of Dyck paths. We let every building block $P_j$ take on $c_j$ colors and count all…
A vertical 2-sum of a two-coatom lattice $L$ and a two-atom lattice $U$ is obtained by removing the top of $L$ and the bottom of $U$, and identifying the coatoms of $L$ with the atoms of $U$. This operation creates one or two nonisomorphic…
We summarize recent progress in lattice studies of four-dimensional N=4 supersymmetric Yang--Mills theory and present preliminary results from ongoing investigations. Our work is based on a construction that exactly preserves a single…
We prove several fundamental results about divisorial integral domains in the setup of multiplicative lattices.
We study recursively defined functions associated with directed graphs on the k dimensional nonnegative integral lattice. The existence of certain combinatorial structures associated with these function classes are shown to be independent…
We discuss the motivations, difficulties and progress in the study of supersymmetric lattice gauge theories focusing in particular on ${\cal N}=1$ and ${\cal N}=4$ super Yang-Mills in four dimensions. Brief reviews of the corresponding…
Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$ and let $M_n(K)$, $n \ge 3$, be the matrix ring over $K$. We will show that the image of any multilinear polynomial in four variables evaluated on $M_n(K)$ contains all matrices…
We show that several families of polynomials defined via fillings of diagrams satisfy linear recurrences under a natural operation on the shape of the diagram. We focus on key polynomials, (also known as Demazure characters), and Demazure…
We construct a lattice action for ${\cal N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions which is local, gauge invariant, free of spectrum doubling and possesses a single exact supersymmetry. Our construction starts from the observation…
We study the martingale problem associated with the operator $L u = \partial_s u + 1/2 \sum_{i,j=1}^{d_0} a^{ij} \partial_{ij} u + \sum_{i,j=1}^d B^{ij} x^j \partial_i u$, where $d_0 \leq d$. We show that the martingale problem is…
