We consider a tower of generalized rook monoid algebras over the field $\mathbb{C}$ of complex numbers and observe that the Bratteli diagram associated to this tower is a simple graph. We construct simple modules and describe Jucys-Murphy…

We study a family of polynomials associated with ascent-descent statistics on labeled rooted plane k-ary trees introduced by Gessel, from a rook-theoretic perspective. We generalize the excedance statistic on permutations to maximal…

Utilizing elliptic weights, we construct an elliptic analogue of rook numbers for Ferrers boards. Our elliptic rook numbers generalize Garsia and Remmel's q-rook numbers by two additional independent parameters a and b, and a nome p. These…

A wide class of skew derivations on degree-one generalized Weyl algebras $R(a,\varphi)$ over a ring $R$ is constructed. All these derivations are twisted by a degree-counting extensions of automorphisms of $R$. It is determined which of the…

Let $G$ be a finite group of Lie type $E_l$ with $l\in\{6,7,8\}$ over $F_q$ and $W$ be the Weyl group of $G$. We describe all maximal tori $T$ of $G$ such that $T$ has a complement in its algebraic normalizer $N(G,T)$. Let $T$ correspond to…

Let $x, y$ be two normal elements in a unital simple C*-algebra $A.$ We introduce a function $D_c(x, y)$ and show that in a unital simple AF-algebra there is a constant $1>C>0$ such that $$ C\cdot D_c(x, y)\le {\rm dist}({\cal U}(x),{\cal…

Goldman, Joichi, and White proved a beautiful theorem showing that the falling factorial generating function for the rook numbers of a Ferrers board factors over the integers. Briggs and Remmel studied an analogue of rook placements where…

For any two involutions y,w in a Weyl group (y\le w), let P_{y,w} be the polynomial defined in [KL]. In this paper we define a new polynomial P^\sigma_{y,w} whose i-th coefficient is a_i-b_i where the i-th coefficient of P_{y,w} is a_i+b_i…

Motivated by many recent works (by L. Charles, V. Guillemin, T. Paul, J. Sj\"ostrand, A. Uribe, S. Vu Ngoc, S. Zelditch and others) on the semi-classical Birkhoff normal forms, we investigate the structure of the group of automorphisms of…

The problem of quantizing a bivariate dynamical system can be reduced to evaluating the ordering of $\hat{q}^j \hat{p}^k$. Here, we consider the Weyl ordering of $\hat{q}^j \hat{p}^k$ that is then expressed in term of the annihilation…

Kitaev, Liese, Remmel, and Sagan recently defined generalized factor order on words comprised of letters from a partially ordered set $(P, \leq_P)$ by setting $u \leq_P w$ if there is a subword $v$ of $w$ of the same length as $u$ such that…

We consider an abstract Wick ordering as a family of relations on elements a_i and define *-algebras by these relations. The relations are given by a fixed operator T:h\otimes h --> h \otimes h, where h is one-particle space, and they…

Rook polynomials have been studied extensively since 1946, principally as a method for enumerating restricted permutations. However, they have also been shown to have many fruitful connections with other areas of mathematics, including…

A seminal theorem due to Weyl states that if (a_n) is any sequence of distinct integers, then, for almost every real number x, the sequence (a_n x) is uniformly distributed modulo one. In particular, for almost every x in the unit interval,…

A combinatorial formula of G.-C. Rota and J.A. Stein is taken to perform Wick re-ordering in quantum field theory. Wick's theorem becomes a Hopf algebraic identity called Cliffordization. The combinatorial method relying on Hopf algebras is…

We present an algorithm which, for given $n$, generates an unambiguous regular tree grammar defining the set of combinatory logic terms, over the set $\{S,K\}$ of primitive combinators, requiring exactly $n$ normal-order reduction steps to…

The Nekrasov-Okounkov formula gives an expression for the Fourier coefficients of the Euler functions as a sum of hook length products. This formula can be deduced from a specialization in a renormalization of the affine type $A$ Weyl…

In this paper we describe conjugacy classes of a Renner monoid $R$ with unit group $W$, the Weyl group. We show that every element in $R$ is conjugate to an element $ue$ where $u\in W$ and $e$ is an idempotent in a cross section lattice.…

We show that the higher-order Weyl algebras over a field of characteristic zero, which are formally rigid as associative algebras, can be formally deformed in a nontrivial way as hom-associative algebras. We also show that these…

An element w of a Weyl group W is called elliptic if it has no eigenvalue 1 in the standard reflection representation. We determine the order of any representative g in a semisimple algebraic group G of an elliptic element w in the…
