This paper presents several new tractability results for planning based on macros. We describe an algorithm that optimally solves planning problems in a class that we call inverted tree reducible, and is provably tractable for several…
We consider a stack sorting algorithm where only the appropriate output values are popped from the stack and then any remaining entries in the stack are run through the stack in reverse order. We identify the basis for the $2$-reverse pass…
Arborescent knots are the ones which can be represented in terms of double fat graphs or equivalently as tree Feynman diagrams. This is the class of knots for which the present knowledge is enough for lifting topological description to the…
Let $f_1(x),\ldots,f_n(x)$ be some polynomials. The upper bound on the number of $x\in\mathbb F_p$ such that $f_1(x),\ldots,f_n(x)$ are roots of unit of order $t$ is obtained. This bound generalize the bound of the paper \cite{V-S} to the…
Thom polynomials are universal cohomological obstructions to the appearance of singularities of given types in differentiable maps. As an application, various invariants of immersions have been expressed in terms of singularities of their…
A rack on $[n]$ can be thought of as a set of maps $(f_x)_{x \in [n]}$, where each $f_x$ is a permutation of $[n]$ such that $f_{(x)f_y} = f_y^{-1}f_xf_y$ for all $x$ and $y$. In 2013, Blackburn showed that the number of isomorphism classes…
Ouroboros functions have shown some interesting properties when subjected to conventional operations. The aim of this paper is to continue our investigation and prove some additional properties of these functions. Using algebraic methods,…
The eccentric pie chart, a generalization of the traditional pie chart is introduced. An arbitrary point is fixed within the circle and rays are drawn from it. A sector is bounded by a pair of neighboring rays and the arc between them, The…
As a generalization of the classical knots, knotoids deal with the open ended knot diagrams in a surface. In recent years, many polynomial invariants for knotoids have appeared, such as the bracket polynomial, the index polynomial and the…
In this paper, by using some families of special numbers and polynomials with their generating functions, we give various properties of these numbers and polynomials. These numbers are related to the well-known numbers and polynomials,…
In this paper we provide an explicit formula for calculating the boolean number of a Ferrers graph. By previous work of the last two authors, this determines the homotopy type of the boolean complex of the graph. Specializing to staircase…
We study inverse factorial series and their relation to Stirling numbers of the first kind. We prove a special representation of the polylogarithm function in terms of series with such numbers. Using various identities for Stirling numbers…
Recent developments of affine algebraic geometry, especially the theory of open algebraic surfaces, provide means to systematically explore geometric and topological properties of polynomials in two variables. Nevertheless, there is one…
We investigate fixed points and cycle types of permutation polynomials and complete permutation polynomials arising from reversed Dickson polynomials of the first kind and second kind over $\mathbb{F}_p$. We also study the permutation…
This article deals with three types of mutually inverse series relating Ferrers and associated Legendre functions of arbitrary complex indexes and orders established on the base of integral representations by using a number of generating…
Tropical refined invariants of toric surfaces constitute a fascinating interpolation between real and complex enumerative geometries via tropical geometry. They were originally introduced by Block and G\"ottsche, and further extended by…
We describe in this note a new invariant of rooted trees. We argue that the invariant is interesting on it own, and that it has connections to knot theory and homological algebra. However, the real reason that we propose this invariant to…
We consider the interpolation problem for a class of radial basis functions (RBFs) that includes the classical polyharmonic splines (PHS). We show that the inverse of the system matrix for this interpolation problem can be approximated at…
We show that the recent techniques developed to study the Fourier restriction problem apply equally well to the Bochner-Riesz problem. This is achieved via applying a pseudo-conformal transformation and a two-parameter induction-on-scales…
Determining the number of pieces after cutting a cake is a classical problem. Roberts (1887) provided an exact solution by computing the number of chambers contained in a plane cut by lines. About 88 years later, Zaslavsky (1975) even…
