Recently, Andrews and Paule studied Schmidt type partitions using MacMahon's Partition Analysis and obtained various interesting results. In this paper, we focus on the combinatorics of Schmidt type partition theorems and characterize them…
Our results can be viewed as applications of algebraic combinatorics in random matrix theory. These applications are motivated by the predictive power of random matrix theory for the statistical behavior of the celebrated Riemann…
The fundamental axioms of the quantum theory do not explicitly identify the algebraic structure of the linear space for which orthogonal subspaces correspond to the propositions (equivalence classes of physical questions). The projective…
For strongly even $\mathbb{E}_{\infty}^{C_2}$-rings $E$ we show that any homotopy ring map $\mathrm{MU} \to E^e$ lifts to an $\mathbb{E}_{\rho}$-map $\mathrm{MU}_{\mathbb{R}} \to E$. This refines the Hahn-Shi Real orientations of Lubin-Tate…
Let $L_1,L_2,\dots,L_K$ be a family of closed subspaces of a Hilbert space $H$, $L_1\cap \dots \cap L_K =\{0\}$; let $P_k$ be the orthogonal projection onto $L_k$. We consider two types of consecutive projections of an element $x_0\in H$:…
Following Birkhoff and von Neumann, quantum logic has traditionally been based on the lattice of closed linear subspaces of some Hilbert space, or, more generally, on the lattice of projections in a von Neumann algebra A. Unfortunately, the…
We consider the problem $\mathbf{P_{curve}}$ of minimizing $\int \limits_0^L \sqrt{\xi^2 + \kappa^2(s)} \, {\rm d}s$ for a curve $\mathbf{x}$ on $\mathbb R$ with fixed boundary points and directions. Here the total length $L\geq 0$ is free,…
Two of the pillars of combinatorics are the notion of choosing an arbitrary subset of a set with $n$ elements (which can be done in $2^n$ ways), and the notion of choosing a $k$-element subset of a set with $n$ elements (which can be done…
Square COD (complex orthogonal design) with size $[n, n, k]$ is an $n \times n$ matrix $\mathcal{O}_z$, where each entry is a complex linear combination of $z_i$ and their conjugations $z_i^*$, $i=1,\ldots, k$, such that $\mathcal{O}_z^H…
The partition perimeter is a statistic defined to be one less than the sum of the number of parts and the largest part. Recently, Amdeberhan, Andrews, and Ballantine proved the following analog of Glaisher's theorem: for all $m \geq 2$ and…
We present a number of combinatorial characterizations of K-matrices. This extends a theorem of Fiedler and Ptak on linear-algebraic characterizations of K-matrices to the setting of oriented matroids. Our proof is elementary and simplifies…
In this expository article we give an introduction to Ehrhart theory, i.e., the theory of integer points in polyhedra, and take a tour through its applications in enumerative combinatorics. Topics include geometric modeling in…
A $3$-dimensional polytope $P$ is $k$-equiprojective when the projection of $P$ along any line that is not parallel to a facet of $P$ is a polygon with $k$ vertices. In 1968, Geoffrey Shephard asked for a description of all equiprojective…
We introduce two new bases of the ring of polynomials and study their relations to known bases. The first basis is the quasiLascoux basis, which is simultaneously both a $K$-theoretic deformation of the quasikey basis and also a lift of the…
Based on the combinatorial description of the moduli spaces of curves provided by Strebel differentials, Witten and Kontsevich have introduced combinatorial cohomology classes $W_{(m_0,m_1,m_2,\dots),n}$, and conjectured that these can be…
This book is mainly an exposition of the author's works and his joint works with his former students on explicit representations of finite-dimensional simple Lie algebras, related partial differential equations, linear orthogonal algebraic…
Given a euclidean lattice and a curve in the corresponding projective space, our goal is to relate the height of the curve to the successive minima of the lattice. The proof of such a statement in http://hal.archves-ouvertes.vf/hal-00270564…
Let $H$ be a commutative semigroup with unit element such that every non-unit can be written as a finite product of irreducible elements (atoms). For every $k \in \mathbb N$, let $\mathscr U_k (H)$ denote the set of all $\ell \in \mathbb N$…
The Kochen-Specker theorem states that a 3-dimensional complex Euclidean space admits a finite configuration of projective lines such that the corresponding quantum observables (the orthogonal projectors) cannot be assigned with 0 and 1…
The Schmidt arrangement of an imaginary quadratic number field $K$ is the orbit of the extended real line under $\text{PSL}(2, \mathcal{O}_K)$ as M\"obius transformations on the extended complex plane. If $K\neq\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-3})$, then…
