Using a relation between the virial expansion coefficients of the pressure and the entropy expansion coefficients in the case of the monomer-dimer model on infinite regular lattices, we have shown that, on hypercubic lattices of any…

We investigate a variant of the octahedron recurrence which lives in a 3-dimensional lattice contained in [0,n] x [0,m] x R. Generalizing results of David Speyer math.CO/0402452, we give an explicit non-recursive formula for the values of…

In this article, we study some special cases of the problem of classifying polynomials $p:\mathbb{R}^2_+\to (0,\infty)$ for which the net $\{\frac{1}{p(m,n)}\}_{m,n\in \mathbb{Z}_+}$ is a completely monotone net, where $p(x,y)=b(x)+a(x)y$,…

The exact finite-size corrections to the free energy $F$ of the dimer model on lattice $\mathcal{M} \times \mathcal{N}$ with cylindrical boundary conditions have been derived for three cases where the lattice is completely covered by…

Stanley, building on work of Stern, defined an array of numbers by the recurrence $s(n, 2k) = s(n-1, k)$, $s(n, 2k+1) = s(n-1, k) + s(n-1, k+1)$. Stanley showed that, for each positive integer $r$, the sequence $s_n^r:= \sum_k s(n,k)^r$…

Using exact computations we study the classical hard-core monomer-dimer models on m x n plane lattice strips with free boundaries. For an arbitrary number v of monomers (or vacancies), we found a logarithmic correction term in the…

An old question in Ramsey theory asks whether any finite coloring of the natural numbers admits a monochromatic pair $\{x+y,xy\}$. We answer this question affirmatively in a strong sense by exhibiting a large new class of non-linear…

We conjecture that for all regular lattices b(n) is asymptotically of the form in eq.(A1). (-1)^{n+1} b(n) = exp( k(-1) n + k(0) ln(n) + k(1) / n + k(2) / n^(2)...) (A1) We restrict testing this to lattices for which we know the first 20…

By using the asymptotic theory of Pemantle and Wilson, exact asymptotic expansions of the free energy of the monomer-dimer model on rectangular $n \times \infty$ lattices in terms of dimer density are obtained for small values of $n$, at…

The 1970s conjecture of Lov\'asz and Plummer that the number of perfect matchings in any $3$-regular graph is exponential in the number of vertices was proved in 2011 by Esperet, Kardo\v{s}, King, Kr\'al', and Norine. We give the exact…

For any $m = 3 \left( 2n + 1 \right) with \ n \in \mathbb{N^*} ,$ the prime counting function $\pi(m) = 4 + \left \vert A_4(m) \right \vert + 2 \left \vert A_6(m) \right \vert $ where $A_6(m) $ and $ A_4(m) $ are the sets of Twin Primes and…

Let $B_{u,v}(n)$ denote the number of $(u,v)$-regular bipartitions of $n$. In this article, we prove that $B_{p,m}(n)$ is always almost divisible by $p,$ where $p\geq 5$ is a prime number and $m=p_1^{\alpha_1} p_2^{\alpha_2}\cdots…

For two sets $A$ and $M$ of positive integers and for a positive integer $n$, let $p(n,A,M)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ with parts in $A$ and multiplicities in $M$, that is, the number of representations of $n$ in the form…

The entropy of a monomer-dimer system on an infinite bipartite lattice can be written as a mean-field part plus a series expansion in the dimer density. In a previous paper it has been conjectured that all coefficients of this series are…

For integers $n, m$ with $n \geq 1$ and $0 \leq m \leq n$, an $(n,m)$-Dyck path is a lattice path in the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z} \times \mathbb{Z}$ using up steps $(0,1)$ and down steps $(1,0)$ that goes from the origin $(0,0)$ to the…

We construct a class of lattices in three and higher dimensions for which the number of dimer coverings can be determined exactly using elementary arguments. These lattices are a generalization of the two-dimensional kagome lattice, and the…

Motivated by problems of comparative genomics and paleogenomics, in [Chauve et al., 2009], the authors introduced the Gapped Consecutive-Ones Property Problem (k,delta)-C1P: given a binary matrix M and two integers k and delta, can the…

Calculating the permanent of a (0,1) matrix is a #P-complete problem but there are some classes of structured matrices for which the permanent is calculable in polynomial time. The most well-known example is the fixed-jump (0,1) circulant…

A covering with dominoes of a rectilinear region is called \emph{tatami} if no four dominoes meet at any point. We describe a reduction from planar 3SAT to Domino Tatami Covering. As a consequence it is NP-complete to decide whether there…

The purpose of this paper is to introduce the concept of reflecting numbers to the realm of number theory and to classify reflecting numbers of certain types. For us, reflecting numbers are coming from congruent numbers, above congruent…
