Hadamard ideals were introduced in 2006 as a set of nonlinear polynomial equations whose zeros are uniquely related to Hadamard matrices with one or two circulant cores of a given order. Based on this idea, the cocyclic Hadamard test enable…
We characterize the entire functions $P$ of $d$ variables, $d\ge 2,$ for which the $\mzd$-translates of $P\chi_{[0,N]^d}$ satisfy the partition of unity for some $N\in \mn.$ In contrast to the one-dimensional case, these entire functions…
A toric ideal is called robust if its universal Gr\"obner basis is a minimal set of generators, and is called generalized robust if its universal Gr\"obner basis equals its universal Markov basis (the union of all its minimal sets of…
Given a $d \times n$ integer matrix $A$, the main result is an elementary, simple-to-state algorithm that finds the largest $A$-graded ideal contained in any ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring $\Bbbk[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$. The special case where $A$…

For a finite group $G$, Frobenius found a formula for the values of the function $\sum_{\mathrm{Irr} G} (\dim\, \pi)^{-s}$ for even integers $s$, where $\mathrm{Irr} G$ is the set of irreducible representations of $G$. We generalize this…

Partition of unities appear in many places in analysis. Typically they are generated by compactly supported functions with a certain regularity. In this paper we consider partition of unities obtained as integer-translates of entire…
$\DeclareMathOperator{\IntR}{Int{}^\text{R}}$Integer-valued rational functions are a natural generalization of integer-valued polynomials. Given a domain $D$, the collection of all integer-valued rational functions over $D$ forms a ring…
Let $q$ be an odd prime power and let $X(m,q)$ be the set of symmetric bilinear forms on an $m$-dimensional vector space over $\mathbb{F}_q$. The partition of $X(m,q)$ induced by the action of the general linear group gives rise to a…

A \textit{symmetric ideal} $I \subseteq R = K[x_1,x_2,...]$ is an ideal that is invariant under the natural action of the infinite symmetric group. We give an explicit algorithm to find Gr\"obner bases for symmetric ideals in the infinite…
Let $I = ( f_1, \dots, f_n )$ be a homogeneous ideal in the polynomial ring $K[x_1, \dots,x_n]$ over a field $K$ generated by generic polynomials. Using an incremental approach based on a method by Gao, Guan and Volny, and properties of the…

Associated to any hypergraph is a toric ideal encoding the algebraic relations among its edges. We study these ideals and the combinatorics of their minimal generators, and derive general degree bounds for both uniform and non-uniform…
