We obtain the complete Lie point symmetry algebras of two sequences of odd-order evolution equations. This includes equations that are fully-nonlinear, i.e. nonlinear in the highest derivative. Two of the equations in the sequences have…

The motivation of this paper is to investigate the joint distribution of succession and Eulerian statistics. We first investigate the enumerators for the joint distribution of descents, big ascents and successions over all permutations in…

New criteria are shown that certain combinations of finite unimodal polynomials are unimodal. %Given unimodal polynomials with explicit expressions and dependent recursion relations, we propose an approach to determine their modes. As…

Harmonic numbers $H_k=\sum_{0<j\le k}1/j (k=0,1,2,...)$ arise naturally in many fields of mathematics. In this paper we initiate the study of congruences involving both harmonic numbers and Lucas sequences. One of our three theorems is as…

Recently is has been proved that if $\sigma\in GL_n(R)$ where $R$ is an commutative ring and $n\geq 3$, then each of the elementary transvections $t_{kl}(\sigma_{ij})~(i\neq j,k\neq l)$ is a product of eight $E_n(R)$-conjugates of $\sigma$…

Andr\'e proved that the number of alternating permutations on $\{1, 2, \dots, n\}$ is equal to the Euler number $E_n$. A refinement of Andr\'e's result was given by Entringer, who proved that counting alternating permutations according to…

We show that if an essentially arbitrary sequence supported on an interval containing $x$ integers, is convolved with a tiny Siegel-Walfisz-type sequence supported on an interval containing $\exp((\log x)^{\varepsilon})$ integers then the…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero, and let $i$ and $n$ be positive integers with $i\geq 2$ and $n>i$. Consider a non-invertible $k$-derivation $d_i$ of the polynomial ring $k[x_1,\ldots,x_i]$. Let $d_n$ be an extension of $d_i$ to a…

We exhibit, for any positive integer parameter $s$, an involution on the set of integer partitions of $n$. These involutions show the joint symmetry of the distributions of the following two statistics. The first counts the number of parts…

Let $x_1,\dots,x_{n}$ be a fixed sequence of real numbers. At each stage, pick $k$ integers $\{I_{i}\}_{1\leq i \leq k}$ uniformly at random without replacement and then for each $i \in \{1,2,\dots,k\}$ replace $x_{I_i}$ by…

The class of the fine moduli space of stable $n$-pointed curves of genus zero, $\overline{\mathcal{M}_{0,n}}$, in the Grothendieck ring of varieties encodes its Poincar\'e polynomial. Aluffi-Chen-Marcolli conjecture that the Grothendieck…

Motivated by juggling sequences and bubble sort, we examine permutations on the set {1,2,...,n} with d descents and maximum drop size k. We give explicit formulas for enumerating such permutations for given integers k and d. We also derive…

We provide upper bounds on the largest subsets of $\{1,2,\dots,N\}$ with no differences of the form $h_1(n_1)+\cdots+h_{\ell}(n_{\ell})$ with $n_i\in \mathbb{N}$ or $h_1(p_1)+\cdots+h_{\ell}(p_{\ell})$ with $p_i$ prime, where $h_i\in…

We classify conjugacy classes of involutions in the isometry groups of nondegenerate, symmetric bilinear forms over the field of two elements. The new component of this work focuses on the case of an orthogonal form on an even dimensional…

The principal minors of the Toeplitz matrix $\left( x_{i-j+1}\right)_{1\le i,j,\le n}$, where $x_0=1, x_k=0$ if $k\le -1$, directly determine an involution of the polynomial ring $R[x_1, ... ,x_n]$ over any commutative ring $R$.

Given a central simple algebra with involution over an arbitrary field, \'etale subalgebras contained in the space of symmetric elements are investigated. The method emphasizes the similarities between the various types of involutions and…

We consider two (densely defined) involutions on the space of $q\times q$ matrices; $I(x_{ij})$ is the matrix inverse of $(x_{ij})$, and $J(x_{ij})$ is the matrix whose $ij$th entry is the reciprocal $x_{ij}^{-1}$. Let $K=I\circ J$. The set…

We prove a formula for the involutive concordance invariants of the cabled knots in terms of that of the companion knot and the pattern knot. As a consequence, we show that any iterated cable of a knot with parameters of the form (odd,1) is…
