We introduce variants of Barvinok's algorithm for counting lattice points in polyhedra. The new algorithms are based on irrational signed decomposition in the primal space and the construction of rational generating functions for cones with…
A well-known conjecture states that the Whitney numbers of the second kind of a geometric lattice (simple matroid) are logarithmically concave. We show this conjecture to be equivalent to proving an upper bound on the number of new copoints…
We introduce a new approach to the description of multi-sorted clones (sets of $k$-tuples of operations of the same arity, closed under coordinatewise composition and containing all projection tuples) on a two-element domain. Leveraging the…
The h^*-polynomial of a lattice polytope is the numerator of the generating function of the Ehrhart polynomial. Let P be a lattice polytope with h^*-polynomial of degree d and with linear coefficient h^*_1. We show that P has to be a…
Lattice polytope representation of natural numbers is introduced based on the fundamental theorem of arithmetic. The combinatorial and geometric properties of the polytopes are studied using Polymake and Qhull software. The volume of the…
We study Poincar\'e series associated to a finite collection of divisors on i. a finite graph and ii. a certain family of metric graphs called chain of loops. Our main results are proofs of rationality of the Poincar\'e series and…
The two function theories of monogenic and of slice monogenic functions have been extensively studied in the literature and were developed independently; the relations between them, e.g. via Fueter mapping and Radon transform, have been…
We seek random versions of some classical theorems on complex approximation by polynomials and rational functions, as well as investigate properties of random compact sets in connection to complex approximation.
Let R be the quotient of a polynomial ring over a field k by an ideal generated by monomials. We derive a formula for the multigraded Poincare' series of R, i.e., the generating function for the ranks of the modules in a minimal multigraded…
The purpose of this expository note is to give the proof of a theorem of Bourgain with some additional details and updated notation. The theorem first appeared as an appendix to the breakthrough paper by Friedgut, \emph{Sharp Thresholds of…
For a fixed dimension $N$ we compute the generating function of the numbers $t_N(n)$ (respectively $\bar{t}_N(n)$) of $PGL_{N+1}(k)$-orbits of rational $n$-sets (respectively rational $n$-multisets) of the projective space $\mathb{P}^N$…
In this note, we give a new simple system of global parameters on the moduli space of rational functions, and clarify the relation to the parameters indicating location of fixed points and the indices at them. As a byproduct, we solve a…
Let A be a class of objects, equipped with an integer size such that for all n the number a(n) of objects of size n is finite. We are interested in the case where the generating fucntion sum_n a(n) t^n is rational, or more generally…
We prove a new classification result for (CR) rational maps from the unit sphere in some ${\mathbb C}^n$ to the unit sphere in ${\mathbb C}^N$. To so so, we work at the level of Hermitian forms, and we introduce ancestors and descendants.
A recurrence relation is said to have the Laurent property if all of its iterates are Laurent polynomials in the initial values with integer coefficients. We consider a family of nonlinear recurrences with the Laurent property, which were…
We define a set theoretic "analytic continuation" of a polytope defined by inequalities. For the regular values of the parameter, our construction coincides with the parallel transport of polytopes in a mirage introduced by Varchenko. We…
In this work, we establish some coincidence point results for self-mappings satisfying rational type contractions in generalized metric spaces in the sense of Branciari [7]. Presented coincidence point theorems weak and extend numerous…
In analogy to the definition of the lambda-determinant, we define a one-parameter deformation of the Dodgson condensation formula for Pfaffians. We prove that the resulting rational function is a polynomial with weights given by the…
The paper proves sum-of-square-of-rational-function based representations (shortly, sosrf-based representations) of polynomial matrices that are positive semidefinite on some special sets: $\mathbb{R}^n;$ $\mathbb{R}$ and its intervals…
We redefine a multiplicative group structure on the set of equivalence classes of rational sequences satisfying a fixed linear recurrence of degree two, which was defined by R. R. Laxton in his paper "On groups of linear recurrences I"…
