Selberg-type integrals that can be turned into constant term identities for Laurent polynomials arise naturally in conjunction with random matrix models in statistical mechanics. Built on a recent idea of Karasev and Petrov we develop a…
We give a Laurent series proof of the Habsieger-Kadell $q$-Morris identity, which is a common generalization of the $q$-Morris identity and the Aomoto constant term identity. The proof allows us to extend the theorem for some additional…
In recent work on the representation theory of vertex algebras related to the Virasoro minimal models M(2,p), Adamovic and Milas discovered logarithmic analogues of (special cases of) the famous Dyson and Morris constant term identities. In…
It is well-known that the Selberg integral is equivalent to the Morris constant term identity. More generally, Selberg type integrals can be turned into constant term identities for Laurent polynomials. In this paper, by extending the…
By generalizing Gessel-Xin's Laurent series method for proving the Zeilberger-Bressoud $q$-Dyson Theorem, we establish a family of $q$-Dyson style constant term identities. These identities give explicit formulas for certain coefficients of…
In 1982 Macdonald published his now famous constant term conjectures for classical root systems. This paper begins with the almost trivial observation that Macdonald's constant term identities admit an extra set of free parameters, thereby…
A composition of birational maps given by Laurent polynomials need not be given by Laurent polynomials; however, sometimes---quite unexpectedly---it does. We suggest a unified treatment of this phenomenon, which covers a large class of…
Some applications of a result, which is proved recently, is considered. We first prove three determinantal identities concerning the binomial coefficient and Stirling numbers of the first and the second kind. We also easily obtain the…
In 1985, Bressoud and Goulden derived the formula for the constant term in $\prod_{(i,j)\in T} \frac{x_j}{x_i}\\\prod_{0\le i<j \le n}(\frac{x_i}{x_j})_{a_i}(\frac{qx_j}{x_i})_{a_j-1}$, where $T \subseteq \{(i,j)\mid 0\le i<j \le n\}$. This…
Motivated by some binomial coefficients identities encountered in our approach to the enumeration of convex polyominoes, we prove some more general identities of the same type, one of which turns out to be related to a strange evaluation of…
The solution of equations from the title is well known since the Euler's time. However, its proof in the case of multiple roots of the characteristic polynomial is rather long and technical and even appearance of the factors $x^m$ looks…
In a recent beautiful but technical article, William Y.C. Chen, Qing-Hu Hou, and Doron Zeilberger developed an algorithm for finding and proving congruence identities (modulo primes) of indefinite sums of many combinatorial sequences,…
Newton's identities provide a way to express elementary symmetric polynomials in terms of power polynomials over fields of characteristic zero. In this article, we study the failure of this relation in positive characteristic and what can…
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…
We prove a fixed point theorem for the action of certain local monodromy groups on \'etale covers and use it to deduce lower bounds in essential dimension. In particular, we give more geometric proofs of many (but not all) of the results of…
This paper studies Zeilberger's two prized constant term identities. For one of the identities, Zeilberger asked for a simple proof that may give rise to a simple proof of Andrews theorem for the number of totally symmetric self…
We give a conditional proof of the Uniform Boundedness Conjecture of Morton and Silverman in the case of polynomials over number fields, assuming a standard conjecture in arithmetic geometry. Our technique simultaneously yields a dynamical…
Erman, Smith, and V\'arilly-Alvarado showed that the expected number of doubly monic Laurent polynomials $f(z) = z^{-m} + a_{-m+1}z^{-m+1} + \cdots + a_{n-1}z^{n-1} + z^n$ whose first $m+n-1$ powers have vanishing constant term is the…
Starting with the zero-square "zeon algebra" the connection with permanents is shown. Permanents of sub-matrices of a linear combination of the identity matrix and all-ones matrix leads to moment polynomials with respect to the exponential…
For $n \times n$ matrices $A$ and $B$ define $$\eta(A,B)=\sum_{S}\det(A[S])\det(B[S']),$$ where the summation is over all subsets of $\{1,..., n\}$, $S'$ is the complement of $S$, and $A[S]$ is the principal submatrix of $A$ with rows and…
