We extend the notion of mex, which is central in combinatorial number theory, to an arbitrary combinatorial structure, and we prove a general theorem to determine the generating function of the objects having fixed mex. We then study this…
We prove that the basis and the generating function of a geometric grid class of permutations Geom$(M)$ are computable from the matrix $M$, as well as some variations on this result. Our main tool is monadic second-order logic on…
We consider the theory of algebraically closed fields of characteristic zero with multivalued operations $x\mapsto x^r$ (raising to powers). It is in fact the theory of equations in exponential sums. In an earlier paper we have described…
We investigate the conformal window of four-dimensional gauge theories with fermionic matter fields in multiple representations. Of particularly relevant examples are the ultra-violet complete models with fermions in two distinct…
In this paper, we study the combinatorial structures of straight and ordinary m\'enage permutations. Based on these structures, we prove four formulas. The first two formulas define a relationship between the m\'enage numbers and the…
A result of Keel and McKernan states that a hypothetical counterexample to the F-conjecture must come from rigid curves on $\bar {M}_{0,n}$ that intersect the interior. We exhibit several ways of constructing rigid curves. In all our…
We study combinatorial configurations with the associated point and line graphs being strongly regular. Examples not belonging to known classes such as partial geometries and their generalizations or elliptic semiplanes are constructed.…
Three candidate approaches for univariate sumcheck over roots of unity are presented. The first takes the form of a multilinear evaluation protocol, which can be combined with the standard multivariate sumcheck protocol. The other two are…
In this paper it is shown that the one-dimensional configuration sums of the solvable lattice models of Andrews, Baxter and Forrester and the string functions associated with admissible representations of the affine Lie algebra A$_1^{(1)}$…
We present an elementary method for proving enumeration formulas which are polynomials in certain parameters if others are fixed and factorize into distinct linear factors over Z. Roughly speaking the idea is to prove such formulas by…
General fermionic expressions for the branching functions of the rational coset conformal field theories $\widehat{su}(2)_{M}\times \widehat{su}(2)_N/\widehat{su}(2)_{M+N}$ are given. The equality of the bosonic and fermionic…
We review a class of matrix models whose degrees of freedom are matrices with anticommuting elements. We discuss the properties of the adjoint fermion one-, two- and gauge invariant D-dimensional matrix models at large-N and compare them…
This paper proves a conjecture proposed by Ren and Li (2015: 393, \emph{Journal of Inequalities and Applications}). Our result eliminates the constraints on the parity and size of $m$, as well as the restriction $x > 1$, required in Ren and…
Let $F_n$ be an $n$ by $n$ symmetric matrix whose entries are bounded by $n^{\gamma}$ for some $\gamma>0$. Consider a randomly perturbed matrix $M_n=F_n+X_n$, where $X_n$ is a random symmetric matrix whose upper diagonal entries $x_{ij}$…
The aim of this paper is to set up appropriate uniform convergence spaces in which to reformulate and enrich the Order Completion Method for nonlinear PDEs. In this regard, we consider an appropriate space ML(X) of normal lower…
Rigged configurations are known to provide action-angle variables for remarkable discrete dynamical systems known as box-ball systems. We conjecture an explicit piecewise-linear formula to obtain the shapes of a rigged configuration from a…
We propose closed-form expressions of the distributions of magnetic quantum number $M$ and total angular momentum $J$ for three and four fermions in single-$j$ orbits. The latter formulas consist of polynomials with coefficients satisfying…
In the last few years it was realized that every fermionic theory in 1+1 dimensions is a generalized Jordan-Wigner transform of a bosonic theory with a non-anomalous $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry. In this note we determine how the boundary states…
Horn's conjecture, which given the spectra of two Hermitian matrices describes the possible spectra of the sum, was recently settled in the affirmative. In this survey we discuss one of the many steps in this, which required us to introduce…
In this paper, we extend work of the first author on a crystal structure on rigged configurations of simply-laced type to all non-exceptional affine types using the technology of virtual rigged configurations and crystals. Under the…
