An \"{u}bercrossing diagram is a knot diagram with only one crossing that may involve more than two strands of the knot. Such a diagram without any nested loops is called a petal projection. Every knot has a petal projection from which the…

We introduce weighted Markovian graphs, a random walk model that decouples the transition dynamics of a Markov chain from (random) edge weights representing the cost of traversing each edge. This decoupling allows us to study the…

We propose an experimental mathematics approach leading to the computer-driven discovery of various structural properties of general counting functions coming from enumeration of walks.

For a random walk killed at leaving a cone we suggest two new constructions of a positive harmonic function. These constructions allow one to remove a quite strong extendability assumption, which has been imposed in our previous paper…

We observe that the strong slope conjecture implies that the degree of the colored Jones polynomial detects all torus knots. As an application we obtain that an adequate knot that has the same colored Jones polynomial degrees as a torus…

Learning representations of nodes in a low dimensional space is a crucial task with many interesting applications in network analysis, including link prediction and node classification. Two popular approaches for this problem include matrix…

The dynamics of coupled intermittent maps is used to model the correlated structure of genomic sequences. The use of intermittent maps, as opposed to other simple chaotic maps, is particularly suited for the production of long range…

The colored Jones polynomial associated to a knot admits an expansion of knot invariants known as the large-color expansion or Melvin-Morton-Rozansky expansion. We will show how this expansion can be derived from the universal invariant…

Following Penrose, we introduce a family of graph functions defined in terms of contractions of certain products of symmetric tensors along the edges of a graph. Special cases of these functions enumerate edge colorings and cycles of…

The conjugate function method is an algorithm for numerical computation of conformal mappings for simply and doubly connected domains. In this paper the conjugate function method is generalized for multiply connected domains. The key…

Musical chords, harmonies or melodies in Just Intonation have note frequencies which are described by a base frequency multiplied by rational numbers. For any local section, these notes can be converted to some base frequency multiplied by…

We consider Reinforced Random Walks where transition probabilities are a function of the proportion of times the walk has traversed an edge. We give conditions for recurrence or transience. A phase transition is observed, similar to…

In this note we define a polynomial invariant for colored links by a skein relation. It specializes to the Jones polynomial for classical links.

This paper studies the counting problem in random dynamical systems. We noticed that the nature of counting in the random setting is completely different than that of the deterministic systems in the sense that non-exponential growth is…

Quantum walks on graphs can model physical processes and serve as efficient tools in quantum information theory. Once we admit random variations in the connectivity of the underlying graph, we arrive at the problem of percolation, where the…

We consider matrices whose elements enumerate weights of walks in planar directed weighted graphs (not necessarily acyclic). These matrices are totally nonnegative; more precisely, all their minors are formal power series in edge weights…

Generating functions for asymmetric step-size paths restricted by two absorbing barriers are derived. The method begins by applying the Lagrange inversion formula to arbitrary powers of roots of the characteristic equation, that being a…

A knot diagram has an associated looped interlacement graph, obtained from the intersection graph of the Gauss diagram by attaching loops to the vertices that correspond to negative crossings. This construction suggests an extension of the…

We present a new 2-variable generalization of the Jones polynomial that can be defined through the skein relation of the Jones polynomial. The well-definedness of this new generalization is proved both algebraically and diagrammatically as…

A link is almost alternating if it is non-alternating and has a diagram that can be transformed into an alternating diagram via one crossing change. We give formulas for the first two and last two potential coefficients of the Jones…
