For ample vector bundles $E$ over compact complex varieties $X$ and a Schur functor $S_I$ corresponding to an arbitrary partition $I$ of the integer $|I|$, one would like to know the optimal vanishing theorem for the cohomology groups…
We introduce the new combinatorial approach of plethystic type of tableaux, as a method to understand coefficients of Schur functions appearing in plethysms $s_\nu[h_\lambda]$ and $s_{\nu}[e_{\lambda}]$, for any partitions $\lambda$ and…
It is shown that if $F$ denotes the number of filled cells in a superimposed pair of maximal orthogonal partial Latin squares of order $n$, then $F\ge n^2/3$. This resolves a conjecture raised in an earlier paper by the current authors. It…
Under the assumption of the existence of Stahl's $S$-compact set we give a short proof of the limit zeros distribution of Pad\'e polynomials and convergence in capacity of diagonal Pad\'e approximants for a generic class of algebraic…
Let $B$ be a Borel set in $\mathbb E^{d}$ with volume $V(B)=\infty$. It is shown that almost all lattices $L$ in $\mathbb E^{d}$ contain infinitely many pairwise disjoint $d$-tuples, that is sets of $d$ linearly independent points in $B$. A…
For $\Lambda$-$n$-coalescents with mutation, we analyse the size $O_n$ of the partition block of $i\in\{1,\ldots,n\}$ at the time where the first mutation appears on the tree that affects $i$ and is shared with any other…
In 1952, J.H.Braun claimed to have established a formula giving a lower bound for certain partitions of sets of integers into weakly sum-free classes. However, no proof or supporting construction was published at that time. In today's…
Let $\Lambda$ be a finite dimensional string algebra over a field with the quiver $Q$ such that the underlying graph of $Q$ is a tree, and let $|\Det(\Lambda)|$ be the number of the minimal right determiners of all irreducible morphisms…
We make progress towards understanding the structure of Littlewood-Richardson coefficients $g_{\lambda,\mu}^{\nu}$ for products of Jack symmetric functions. Building on recent results of the second author, we are able to prove new cases of…
Let $\lambda$, $\mu$, $\lambda'$, $\mu'$ be partitions. The conjecture of Lam, Postnikov and Pylyavskyy states that, if $\lambda+\mu = \lambda' + \mu'$, and $\min(\lambda_i-\lambda_j, \mu_i-\mu_j) \leq \lambda'_i - \lambda'_j \leq…
We develop a theory of levels for irreducible representations of symmetric groups of degree $n$ analogous to the theory of levels for finite classical groups. A key property of level is that the level of a character, provided it is not too…
We consider the symmetric group $S_n$-module of the polynomial ring with $m$ sets of $n$ commuting variables and $m'$ sets of $n$ anti-commuting variables and show that the multiplicity of an irreducible indexed by the partition $\lambda$…
We prove that for arbitrary partitions $\mathbf{\lambda} \subseteq \mathbf{\kappa},$ and integers $0\leq c<r\leq n,$ the sequence of Schur polynomials $S_{(\mathbf{\kappa} + k\cdot \mathbf{1}^c)/(\mathbf{\lambda} + k\cdot…
We completely determine the minimal polynomial of an arbitrary simple highest weight module $L(\lambda)$ over a complex classical Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}\subseteq\mathfrak{gl}_N$ relative to its defining module $\pi=\mathbb{C}^{N}$. These…
It is shown that for the conjugation action of the symmetric group $S_n,$ when $n=6$ or $n\geq 8,$ all $S_n$-irreducibles appear as constituents of a single conjugacy class, namely, one indexed by a partition $\lambda$ of $n$ with at least…
Let $n$ be a positive integer, and let $\rho_n = (n, n-1, n-2, \ldots, 1)$ be the ``staircase'' partition of size $N = {n+1 \choose 2}$. The Saxl conjecture asserts that every irreducible representation $S^\lambda$ of the symmetric group…
By exploiting relationships between the values taken by ordinary characters of symmetric groups we prove two theorems in the modular representation theory of the symmetric group. 1. The decomposition matrices of symmetric groups in odd…
We give near-tight lower bounds for the sparsity required in several dimensionality reducing linear maps. First, consider the JL lemma which states that for any set of n vectors in R there is a matrix A in R^{m x d} with m = O(eps^{-2}log…
We introduce a universal approach for applying the partition rank method, an extension of Tao's slice rank polynomial method, to tensors that are not diagonal. This is accomplished by generalizing Naslund's distinctness indicator to what we…
Let S be a ruled surface without sections of negative self-intersection. We classify the irreducible components of the moduli stack of torsion-free sheaves of rank 2 sheaves on S. We also classify the irreducible components of the…
