Fully packed trails on the square lattice are known to be described, in the long distance limit, by a collection of free non compact bosons and symplectic fermions, and thus exhibit some properties reminiscent of Brownian motion, like…
In 1982, Ungar proved that the connecting lines of a set of $n$ noncollinear points in the plane determine at least $2\lfloor n/2 \rfloor$ directions (slopes). Sets achieving this minimum for $n$ odd (even) are called…
Extending previous work on $a_2^{(1)}$, we present a set of reflection matrices, which are explicit solutions to the $a_n^{(1)}$ boundary Yang-Baxter equation. Unlike solutions found previously these are multiplet-changing $K$-matrices, and…
MacMahon's classical theorem on the number of boxed plane partitions has been generalized in several directions. One way to generalize the theorem is to view boxed plane partitions as lozenge tilings of a hexagonal region and then…
The complete representation of the Martin compactification for reflected random walks on a half-space $\Z^d\times\N$ is obtained. It is shown that the full Martin compactification is in general not homeomorphic to the ``radial''…
We generalize the notion of (geometric) substitution rule to obtain overlapping substitutions. Our motivating example is the substitution presented in Ziherl, Dotera and Bekku \cite{DBZ}, which features a substitution matrix with…
We derive an exact path integral formulation for the partition function for the Ising model using a mapping between spins and poles of a Laurent expansion for a field on the complex plane. The advantage in using this formulation for the…
We use a Hamiltonian (transition matrix) description of height-restricted Dyck paths on the plane in which generating functions for the paths arise as matrix elements of the propagator to evaluate the length and area generating function for…
Motivated by theoretically and experimentally observed structural phases with octagonal symmetry, we introduce a family of octagonal tilings which are composed of three prototiles. We define our tilings with respect to two non-negative…
We present a prescription for choosing orthogonal bases of differential $n$-forms belonging to quadratic twisted period integrals, with respect to the intersection number inner product. To evaluate these inner products, we additionally…
We say that a set $A$ \emph{$t$-intersects} a set $B$ if $A$ and $B$ have at least $t$ common elements. A family $\mathcal{A}$ of sets is said to be \emph{$t$-intersecting} if each set in $\mathcal{A}$ $t$-intersects any other set in…
In previous work, we introduced a version of the Fukaya algebra associated to a degeneration of a symplectic manifold, whose structure maps count collections of maps in the components of the degeneration satisfying matching conditions. In…
This paper seeks to advance the theory of nonexpansive mappings by introducing and exploring a novel class of nonexpansive type mappings, which we aptly designate as perimetric nonexpansive mappings. We establish that the collection of…
We show that all finite lattices, including non-distributive lattices, arise as stable matching lattices when all agents have path-independent choice functions. This result answers an open question of Blair~\cite{blair1988lattice}. In the…
Enumerating polygons on regular lattices is a classic problem in rigorous statistical mechanics. The goal of enumerating polygons on the square lattice via fermionic path integration was achieved using a free-fermion quadratic action in the…
We construct a new bijection between the set of $n\times k$ $0$-$1$ matrices with no three $1$'s forming a $\Gamma$ configuration and the set of $(n,k)$-Callan sequences, a simple structure counted by poly-Bernoulli numbers. We give two…
In this note, we examine how the BKP structure of the generating series of several models of maps on non-oriented surfaces can be used to obtain explicit and/or efficient recurrence formulas for their enumeration according to the genus and…
We prove the computational weakness of a model of tile assembly that has so far resisted many attempts of formal analysis or positive constructions. Specifically, we prove that, in Winfree's abstract Tile Assembly Model, when restricted to…
Noncommutative rational functions, i.e., elements of the universal skew field of fractions of a free algebra, can be defined through evaluations of noncommutative rational expressions on tuples of matrices. This interpretation extends their…
We introduce a new class of reflection groups associated with the canonical bilinear lattices of Lenzing, which we call reflection groups of canonical type. The main result of this work is a categorification of the corresponding poset of…
