We derive a series of results on random walks on a d-dimensional hypercubic lattice (lattice paths). We introduce the notions of terse and simple paths corresponding to the path having no backtracking parts (spikes). These paths label…
We report about results revolving around Kostka-Foulkes and parabolic Kostka polynomials and their connections with Representation Theory and Combinatorics. It appears that the set of all parabolic Kostka polynomials forms a semigroup,…
A {\em Motzkin path} of length $n$ is a lattice path from $(0,0)$ to $(n,0)$ in the plane integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}\times\mathbb{Z}$ consisting of horizontal-steps $(1, 0)$, up-steps $(1,1)$, and down-steps $(1,-1)$, which never passes…
We initiate the study of a type $C_n$ generalization of the lattice path matroids defined by Bonin, de Mier, and Noy. These are delta matroids whose feasible sets are in bijection with lattice paths which are symmetric along the main…
This paper deals with lattice congruences of the weak order on the symmetric group, and initiates the investigation of the cover graphs of the corresponding lattice quotients. These graphs also arise as the skeleta of the so-called…
A recurrence relation of the generating function of the dimer model of Fibonacci type gives a functional relation for formal power series associated to lattice paths such as a Dyck, Motzkin and Schr\"oder path. In this paper, we generalize…
In the 1980s, Viennot developed a combinatorial approach to studying mixed moments of orthogonal polynomials using Motzkin paths. Recently, an alternative combinatorial model for these mixed moments based on lecture hall paths was…
We introduce and study an inhomogeneous generalization of the spin $q$-Whittaker polynomials from [Borodin,Wheeler-17]. These are symmetric polynomials, and we prove a branching rule, skew dual and non-dual Cauchy identities, and an…
Lattice paths called $\ell$-Schr\"oder paths are introduced. They are paths on the upper half-plane consisting of $\ell+2$ types of steps: $(i,\ell-i)$ for $i=0,\ldots,\ell$, and $(1,-1)$. Those paths generalize Schr\"oder paths and some…
The spectral decomposition of the path space of the vertex model associated to the level $l$ representation of the quantized affine algebra $U_q(\hat{sl}_n)$ is studied. The spectrum and its degeneracy are parametrized by skew Young…
We use Kashiwara-Nakashima's combinatorics of crystal graphs associated to the roots sytems $B_{n}$ and $D_{n}$ to extend the results of \QCITE{cite}{}{lec3} and \QCITE{cite}{}{Mor} by showing that Morris type recurrence formulas also exist…
The first half of this paper is largely expository, wherein we present a systematic combinatorial approach to the theory of polynomial (semi)invariants and multilinear invariants of several vectors and covectors, for the classical groups.…
A {\em k-generalized Dyck path} of length $n$ is a lattice path from $(0,0)$ to $(n,0)$ in the plane integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}\times\mathbb{Z}$ consisting of horizontal-steps $(k, 0)$ for a given integer $k\geq 0$, up-steps $(1,1)$, and…
We discuss generalizations of some results on lattice polygons to certain piecewise linear loops which may have a self-intersection but have vertices in the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$. We first prove a formula on the rotation number of a…
We survey three methods for proving that the characteristic polynomial of a finite lattice factors over the nonnegative integers and indicate how they have evolved recently. The first technique uses geometric ideas and is based on…
We introduce a new family of hyperplane arrangements inspired by the homogenized Linial arrangement (which was recently introduced by Hetyei), and show that the intersection lattices of these arrangements are isomorphic to the bond lattices…
Generalized Hall-Littlewood polynomials (Macdonald spherical functions) and generalized Kostka-Foulkes polynomials ($q$-weight multiplicities) arise in many places in combinatorics, representation theory, geometry, and mathematical physics.…
In the first part of this paper I give an elementary overview about some number sequences which count various sorts of lattice paths in strips along the x-axis and compute their generating functions in terms of Fibonacci and Lucas…
Lattice paths effectively model phenomena in chemistry, physics and probability theory. Asymptotic enumeration of lattice paths is linked with entropy in the physical systems being modeled. Lattice paths restricted to different regions of…
We define an infinite sequence of generalizations, parametrized by an integer $m \ge 1$, of the Stieltjes--Rogers and Thron--Rogers polynomials; they arise as the power-series expansions of some branched continued fractions, and as the…
