Deformed logarithms and their inverse functions, the deformed exponentials, are important tools in the theory of non-additive entropies and non-extensive statistical mechanics. We formulate and prove counterparts of Golden-Thompson's trace…
As a natural generalization of ordinary Lie algebras we introduce the concept of quantum Lie algebras ${\cal L}_q(g)$. We define these in terms of certain adjoint submodules of quantized enveloping algebras $U_q(g)$ endowed with a quantum…
Two well-known distributions in the study of permutation statistics are the Mahonian and Eulerian distributions. Mahonian statistics include the major index MAJ and the number of inversions INV, while examples of Eulerian statistics are the…
We build on the foundational work of Deffner and Zurek [S. Deffner and W. H. Zurek, New J. Phys. 18, 063013 (2016)] to show how central equilibrium structures of statistical mechanics can be understood within standard quantum mechanics…
The ring of q-character polynomials is a q-analog of the classical ring of character polynomials for the symmetric groups. This ring consists of certain class functions defined simultaneously on the groups $Gl_n(F_q)$ for all n, which we…
An Ising-type classical statistical ensemble can describe the quantum physics of fermions if one chooses a particular law for the time evolution of the probability distribution. It accounts for the time evolution of a quantum field theory…
The aim of the paper is to derive essential elements of quantum mechanics from a parametric structure extending that of traditional mathematical statistics. The main extensions, which also can be motivated from an applied statistics point…
We introduce a family of quasisymmetric functions called {\em Eulerian quasisymmetric functions}, which specialize to enumerators for the joint distribution of the permutation statistics, major index and excedance number on permutations of…
Arslan, Altoum, and Zaarour introduced an inversion statistic for generalized symmetric groups. In this work, we study the distribution of this statistic over colored permutations, including derangements and involutions. By establishing a…
Given a permutation statistic $\operatorname{st}$, define its inverse statistic $\operatorname{ist}$ by $\operatorname{ist}(\pi):=\operatorname{st}(\pi^{-1})$. We give a general approach, based on the theory of symmetric functions, for…
We introduce a class of $M \times M$ sample covariance matrices $\mathcal Q$ which subsumes and generalizes several previous models. The associated population covariance matrix $\Sigma = \mathbb E \cal Q$ is assumed to differ from the…
The study of Mahonian statistics dated back to 1915 when MacMahon showed that the major index and the inverse number have the same distribution on a set of permutations with length n. Since then, many Mahonian statistics have been…
Babson and Steingr\`imsson introduced generalized permutation patterns that allow the requirement that two adjacent letters in a pattern must be adjacent in the permutation. Subsequently, Claesson presented a complete solution for the…
It is shown that a refined version of a q-analogue of the Eulerian numbers together with the action, by conjugation, of the subgroup of the symmetric group $S_n$ generated by the $n$-cycle $(1,2,...,n)$ on the set of permutations of fixed…
There are two basic number sequences which play a major role in the prime number distribution. The first Number Sequence SQ1 contains all prime numbers of the form 6n+5 and the second Number Sequence SQ2 contains all prime numbers of the…
Using techniques from Poisson approximation, we prove explicit error bounds on the number of permutations that avoid any pattern. Most generally, we bound the total variation distance between the joint distribution of pattern occurrences…
We prove that the pair of statistics (des,maj) on multiset permutations is equidistributed with the pair (stc,inv) on certain quotients of the symmetric group. We define the analogue of the statistic stc on multiset permutations, whose…
We discuss recently discovered links of the statistical models of normal random matrices to some important physical problems of pattern formation and to the quantum Hall effect. Specifically, the large $N$ limit of the normal matrix model…
Superstatistics describes statistical systems that behave like superpositions of different inverse temperatures $\beta$, so that the probability distribution is $p(\epsilon_i) \propto \int_{0}^{\infty} f(\beta) e^{-\beta \epsilon_i}d\beta$,…
We show the first known example for a pattern $q$ for which $\lim_{n\to \infty} \sqrt[n]{S_n(q)}$ is not an integer. We find the exact value of the limit and show that it is irrational. Then we generalize our results to an infinite sequence…
