We solve the problem of effectively computing the $a$-invariant of ladder determinantal rings. In the case of a one-sided ladder, we provide a compact formula, while, for a large family of two-sided ladders, we provide an algorithmic…
In this paper, we derive several formulas of counting families of non-intersecting paths for two-sided ladder-shaped regions. As an application, we give a new proof to a combinatorial interpretation of Fibonacci numbers obtained by G.…
We give three determinantal expressions for the Hilbert series as well as the Hilbert function of a Pfaffian ring, and a closed form product formula for its multiplicity. An appendix outlining some basic facts about degeneracy loci and…
We give a formula for the determinant of an $n\times n$ matrix with entries from a commutative ring with unit. The formula can be evaluated by a "straight-line program" performing only additions, subtractions and multiplications of ring…
We explicitly describe the divisor class groups and semidualizing modules for ladder determinantal rings with coefficients in an arbitrary normal domain for arbitrary ladders, not necessarily connected, and all sizes of minors.
We prove a transformation formula relating two determinants involving elliptic shifted factorials. Similar determinants have been applied to multiple elliptic hypergeometric series.
Ilse Fischer and the second author introduced in [Algebr. Comb. 7 (2024), no. 5, 1319-1345] a two parameter family of polynomials defined as sums over totally symmetric plane partitions and connected to alternating sign matrices and…
In this paper, we will investigate the jet schemes of determinantal varieties. It is quite often the case that the geometric information concerning the jet schemes of an algebraic variety can be described, but the more refined algebraic…
We identify all semidualizing modules over certain classes of ladder determinantal rings over a field ${\mathsf k}$. Specifically, given a ladder of variables $Y$, we show that the ring ${\mathsf k}[Y]/I_t(Y)$ has only trivial semidualizing…
We give an explicit formula for the Hilbert Series of an algebra defined by a linearly presented, standard graded, residual intersection of a grade three Gorenstein ideal.
A formula expressing the fermionic determinant as an infinite product of smaller determinants is derived and discussed. These smaller determinants are of a fixed size, independent of the size of the lattice and are indexed by loops of…
We provide an algorithm to compute generators of the orthogonal group of the discriminant group associated to an integral quadratic lattice over the integers. We give a closed formula for its order.
In recent preprints, Cigler considered certain Hankel determinants of convoluted Catalan numbers and conjectured identities for these determinants. In this note, we shall give a bijective proof of Cigler's Conjecture by interpreting…
In previous papers the authors gave formulae for generating series of classes (in the Grothendieck ring of complex quasi-projective varieties) of Hilbert schemes of zero-dimensional subschemes on smooth varieties and on orbifolds in terms…
We evaluate four families of determinants of matrices, where the entries are sums or differences of generating functions for paths consisting of up-steps, down-steps and level steps. By specialisation, these determinant evaluations have…
For a single value of $\ell$, let $f(n,\ell)$ denote the number of lattice paths that use the steps $(1,1)$, $(1,-1)$, and $(\ell,0)$, that run from $(0,0)$ to $(n,0)$, and that never run below the horizontal axis. Equivalently, $f(n,\ell)$…
We present a closed form for a multi-variate generating function for the dimensions of the irreducible representations of a semisimple, simply connected linear algebraic group over $\mathbb{C}$ whose highest weights lie in a finitely…
This note deals with two topics of linear algebra. We give a simple and short proof of the multiplicative property of the determinant and provide a constructive formula for rotations. The derivation of the rotation matrix relies on simple…
In this paper, our primary goal is to calculate the Hankel determinants for a class of lattice paths, which are distinguished by the step set consisting of \(\{(1,0), (2,0), (k-1,1), (-1,1)\}\), where the parameter \(k\geq 4\). These paths…
We evaluate determinants of "spiral" matrices, which are matrices in which entries are spiralling from the centre of the matrices towards the outside, with prescribed increments from one entry to the next depending on whether one moves…
