A real polynomial $p$ of degree $n$ is called a Morse polynomial if its derivative has $n-1$ pairwise differentreal roots and values of $p$ in these roots (critical values) are also pairwise different. The plot of such polynomial is called…
Springer numbers are an analog of Euler numbers for the group of signed permutations. Arnol'd showed that they count some objects called snakes, that generalize alternating permutations. Hoffman established a link between Springer numbers,…
For the calculation of Springer numbers (of root systems) of type $B_n$ and $D_n$, Arnold introduced a signed analogue of alternating permutations, called $\beta_n$-snakes, and derived recurrence relations for enumerating the…
In a recent paper, the authors introduced the notion of an alternating snake and a corresponding family of finite dimensional modules for the quantum affine algebra associated to $A_n$. We prove that under some restrictions, an alternating…
Snakes are analogues of alternating permutations defined for any Coxeter group. We study these objects from the point of view of combinatorial Hopf algebras, such as noncommutative symmetric functions and their generalizations. The main…
We give an explicit combinatorial formula for the Laurent expansion of any arc or closed curve on an unpunctured triangulated orbifold. We do this by extending the snake graph construction of Musiker, Schiffler, and Williams to unpunctured…
Let there be given a probability measure $\mu$ on the unit circle $\TT$ of the complex plane and consider the inner product induced by $\mu$. In this paper we consider the problem of orthogonalizing a sequence of monomials $\{z^{r_k}\}_k$,…
We introduce several commutative rings, the snake rings, that have strong connections to cluster algebras. The elements of these rings are residue classes of unions of certain labeled graphs that were used to construct canonical bases in…
The non-convexity of a smooth and compact connected component of a real algebraic plane curve can be measured by a combinatorial object called the Poincare-Reeb tree associated to the curve and to a direction of projection. In this paper we…
We introduce a family of modules for the quantum affine algebra which include as very special cases both the snake modules and the modules arising from a monoidal categorification of cluster algebras. We give necessary and sufficient…
A classical result states that the parity balance of the number of excedances of all permutations (derangements, respectively) of length $n$ is the Euler number. In 2010, Josuat-Verg\`{e}s gives a $q$-analogue with $q$ representing the…
We describe the configuration space $\mathbf{S}$ of polygons with prescribed edge slopes, and study the perimeter $\mathcal{P}$ as a Morse function on $\mathbf{S}$. We characterize critical points of $\mathcal{P}$ (these are…
We consider the configuration space of planar $n$-gons with fixed perimeter, which is diffeomorphic to the complex projective space $\mathbb{C}P^{n-2}$. The oriented area function has the minimal number of critical points on the…
This paper was motivated by work of Arnold where he explains how to count "snakes", i.e. Morse functions on the real axis with prescribed behavior at infinity. This leads immediately to a count of excellent Morse functions on the circle,…
Solutions to the Markov equation appear in many mathematical contexts. We aim to build on the understanding of them by proving a recent conjecture about Markov polynomials; solutions to a generalised version of the Markov equation. The…
Consider a Laurent polynomial with real positive coefficients such that the origin is strictly inside its Newton polytope. Then it is strongly convex as a function of real positive argument. So it has a distinguished Morse critical point…
In this paper we present an explicit formula for the number of permutations with a given number of alternating descents. Moreover, we study the interlacing property of the real parts of the zeros of the generating polynomials of these…
The aim of the article is to understand the combinatorics of snake graphs by means of linear algebra. In particular, we apply Kasteleyn's and Temperley--Fisher's ideas about spectral properties of weighted adjacency matrices of planar…
In an earlier publication, the last two authors showed that a finite-dimensional module for a quantum affine algebra of type $A$ whose $q$-factorization graph is totally ordered is prime. In this paper, we continue the investigation of the…
In this paper we compute the Newton polytope $\mathcal M_A$ of the Morse discriminant in the space of univariate polynomials with the given support set $A.$ Namely, we establish a surjection between the set of all combinatorial types of…
