We introduce certain generalisations of the characters of the classical Lie groups, extending the recently defined factorial characters of Foley and King. In this extension, the factorial powers are replaced with an arbitrary sequence of…
In this article, we introduce the simplicial $d$-polytopic numbers defined on generalized Fibonacci polynomials. We establish basic identities and find $q$-identities known. Furthermore, we find generating functions for the simplicial…
Given an $n$-vertex digraph $D$ and a labeling $\sigma:V(D)\to [n]$, we say that an arc $u\to v$ of $D$ is a descent of $\sigma$ if $\sigma(u)>\sigma(v)$. Foata and Zeilberger introduced a generating function $A_D(t)$ for labelings of $D$…
A problem based on the Extended Euclidean Algorithm applied to a class of polynomials with many factors is presented and believed to be hard. If so, it is a one-way function well suited for applications in digital signicatures.
We use connection relations and series rearrangement to generalize generating functions for several higher continuous orthogonal polynomials in the Askey scheme, namely the Wilson, continuous dual Hahn, continuous Hahn, and…
Starting from the moment sequences of classical orthogonal polynomials we derive the orthogonality purely algebraically. We consider also the moments of ($q=1$) classical orthogonal polynomials, and study those cases in which the…
We present a formula for a generalisation of the Eulerian polynomial, namely the generating polynomial of the joint distribution of major index and descent statistic over the set of signed multiset permutations. It has a description in…
Holonomy algebras of Weyl connections in Lorentzian signature are classified. In particular, examples of Weyl connections with all possible holonomy algebras are constructed.
Chinta and Gunnells introduced a rather intricate multi-parameter Weyl group action on rational functions on a torus, which, when the parameters are specialized to certain Gauss sums, describes the functional equations of Weyl group…
A symmetric function of $N$ variables can be given in terms of symmetric polynomials of these variables. We determine those symmetric polynomials in which the dual differential operators take the neatest form when expressed in terms of our…
In a general fractional factorial design, the $n$-levels of a factor are coded by the $n$-th roots of the unity. This device allows a full generalization to mixed-level designs of the theory of the polynomial indicator function which has…
Many combinatorial generating functions can be expressed as combinations of symmetric functions, or extracted as sub-series and specializations from such combinations. Gessel has outlined a large class of symmetric functions for which the…
For a possibly singular complex variety $X$, generating functions of total "orbifold Chern homology classes" of symmetric products $S^nX$ are given. Those are very natural "Chern class versions" (in the sense of Schwartz-MacPherson) of…
We use generating functions over group rings to count polynomials over finite fields with the first few coefficients prescribed and a factorization pattern prescribed. In particular, we obtain different exact formulas for the number of…
We generalize generating functions for hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials, namely Jacobi, Gegenbauer, Laguerre, and Wilson polynomials. These generalizations of generating functions are accomplished through series rearrangement using…
The Weyl-Kac character formula gives a beautiful closed-form expression for the characters of integrable highest-weight modules of Kac-Moody algebras. It is not, however, a formula that is combinatorial in nature, obscuring positivity. In…
In this paper, we introduce {\it factorial} analogues of the ordinary Hall--Littlewood $P$- and $Q$-polynomials, which we call the {\it factorial Hall--Littlewood $P$- and $Q$-polynomials}. Using the {\it universal} formal group law, we…
The article studies a class of generalized factorial functions and symbolic product sequences through Jacobi type continued fractions (J-fractions) that formally enumerate the divergent ordinary generating functions of these sequences. The…
