In this talk we introduce several topics in combinatorial number theory which are related to groups; the topics include combinatorial aspects of covers of groups by cosets, and also restricted sumsets and zero-sum problems on abelian…
In this paper we introduce the concept of completeness of sets. We study this property on the set of integers. We examine how this property is preserved as we carry out various operations compatible with sets. We also introduce the problem…
A rectangular layout $\mathcal{L}$ is a rectangle partitioned into disjoint smaller rectangles so that no four smaller rectangles meet at the same point. Rectangular layouts were originally used as floorplans in VLSI design to represent…
We study bipartite maps on the plane with one infinite face and one face of perimeter 2. At first we consider the problem of their enumeration an then study the connection between the combinatorial structure of a map and the degree of its…
A widely investigated subject in combinatorial geometry, originated from Erd\H{o}s, is the following. Given a point set $P$ of cardinality $n$ in the plane, how can we describe the distribution of the determined distances? This has been…
We consider the problem of enumeration of planar maps and revisit its one-matrix model solution in the light of recent combinatorial techniques involving conjugated trees. We adapt and generalize these techniques so as to give an…
We prove an interesting identity for the sum of determinants, which is a generalization of the sum of a geometric progression. The proof is quite long and a number of other identities are proved along the way. Some of the more elementary…
We prove that the number of dissections of a given polygon into triangles with fixed areas of faces is finite and that an equidissection is algebraic as long as the vertices of the original polygon have algebraic coordinates.
Every m by n matrix A with rank r has exactly r independent rows and r independent columns. The fact has become the most fundamental theorem in linear algebra such that we may favor it in an unconscious way. The sole aim of this paper is to…
We algebraically compute all possible sectional curvature values for canonical algebraic curvature tensors, and use this result to give a method for constructing general sectional curvature bounds. We use a well-known method to…
Does a given a set of polyominoes tile some rectangle? We show that this problem is undecidable. In a different direction, we also consider tiling a cofinite subset of the plane. The tileability is undecidable for many variants of this…
We introduce and study the number of tilings of unit height rectangles with irrational tiles. We prove that the class of sequences of these numbers coincides with the class of diagonals of N-rational generating functions and a class of…
In two papers, Little and Sellers introduced an exciting new combinatorial method for proving partition identities which is not directly bijective. Instead, they consider various sets of weighted tilings of a $1 \times \infty$ board with…
We offer a new proof that a certain q-analogue of multinomial coeffi- cients furnishes a q-counting of the set of permutations of an associated multiset of positive integers, according to the number of inversions in such arrangements. Our…
In this text we develop the formalism of products and powers of linear codes under componentwise multiplication. As an expanded version of the author's talk at AGCT-14, focus is put mostly on basic properties and descriptive statements that…
The First Hilbert problem is studied in this paper by applying two instruments: a new methodology distinguishing between mathematical objects and mathematical languages used to describe these objects; and a new numeral system allowing one…
By studying laminations of the unit disk, we can gain insight into the structure of Julia sets of polynomials and their dynamics in the complex plane. The polynomials of a given degree, $d$, have a parameter space. The hyperbolic components…
We study a generalization of the classical Pentagonal Number Theorem and its applications. We derive new identities for certain infinite series, recurrence relations and convolution sums for certain restricted partitions and divisor sums.…
We compute the generating function of column-strict plane partitions with parts in {1,2,...,n}, at most c columns, p rows of odd length and k parts equal to n. This refines both, Krattenthaler's ["The major counting of nonintersecting…
We give an efficient algorithm to enumerate all sets of $r\ge 1$ quadratic polynomials over a finite field, which remain irreducible under iterations and compositions.
