In his recent work, Andrews revisited two-color partitions with certain restrictions on the differences between consecutive parts, and he established three theorems linking these two-color partitions with more familiar kinds of partitions.…
The number of plane partitions contained in a given box was shown by MacMahon to be given by a simple product formula. By a simple bijection, this formula also enumerates lozenge tilings of hexagons of side-lengths $a,b,c,a,b,c$ (in cyclic…
This article looks at the eigenvalues of magic squares generated by the MATLAB's magic($n$) function. The magic($n$) function constructs doubly even ($n = 4k$) magic squares, singly even ($n = 4k+2$) magic squares and odd ($n = 2k+1$) magic…
We present new characterizations of the rings in which every element is the sum of two idempotents and a nilpotent that commute, and the rings in which every element is the sum of two tripotents and a nilpotent that commute. We prove that…
A triangular partition is a partition whose Ferrers diagram can be separated from its complement (as a subset of $\mathbb{N}^2$) by a straight line. Having their origins in combinatorial number theory and computer vision, triangular…
Observed neutrino mixing can be described by a tribimaximal MNS matrix. The resulting neutrino mass matrix in the basis of a diagonal charged lepton mass matrix is both 2-3 symmetric and magic. By a magic matrix, I mean one whose row sums…
The problem of the construction of magic squares occupied many mathematicians of the 17th century. The Polish Jesuit and polymath Adam Adamandy Kocha\'nski studied this subject too, and in 1686 he published a paper in Acta Eruditorum titled…
We give a simple construction of an orthogonal basis for the space of m by n matrices with row and column sums equal to zero. This vector space corresponds to the affine space naturally associated with the Birkhoff polytope, contingency…
A commutative order in a quaternion algebra is called selective if it is embeds into some, but not all, the maximal orders in the algebra. It is known that a given quadratic order over a number field can be selective in at most one…
We show that for any $k$ at least $6$ and $g$ sufficiently large, the mapping class group of a surface of genus $g$ can be generated by three elements of order $k$. We also show that this can be done with four elements of order $5$. We…
Large set of orthogonal arrays (LOA) were introduced by D. R. Stinson, and it is also used to construct multimagic squares recently. In this paper, multimagic squares based on strong double LOA are further investigated. It is proved that…
In this paper we study the rotation and spatial inversion symmetry of regular tetrahedron. We obtain the representation matrix, multiplication table,the order of all group elements, all possible combinations of generator elements, the…
Based on the computation of the third author we obtain an interpretation of the third Mac Lane cohomology of rings using certain kind of crossed extensions of rings in the quadratic world. Actually we obtain two such interpretations…
Three combinatorial matrices are considered and their LU-decompositions were found. This is typically done by (creative) guessing, and necessary proofs are more or less routine calculations.
In this paper we present the construction of several aggregates of tetrahedra. Each construction is obtained by performing rotations on an initial set of tetrahedra that either (1) contains gaps between adjacent tetrahedra, or (2) exhibits…
An associative magic square is a magic square such that the sum of any 2 cells at symmetric positions with respect to the center is constant. The total number of associative magic squares of order 7 is enormous, and thus, it is not…
Our purpose is to determine the complete set of mutually orthogonal squares of order $d$, which are not necessary Latin. In this article, we introduce the concept of supersquare of order $d$, which is defined with the help of its generating…
Given an integer partition $P = (h_1h_2\dots h_k)$ of $n$, a realization of $P$ is a latin square with disjoint subsquares of orders $h_1,h_2,\dots,h_k$. Most known results restrict either $k$ or the number of different integers in $P$.…
Special orthogonal matrices with rational elements form the group SO(n,Q), where Q is the field of rational numbers. A theorem describing the structure of an arbitrary matrix from this group is proved. This theorem yields an algorithm for…
We find all analytic surfaces in space R^3 such that through each point of the surface one can draw two circular arcs fully contained in the surface. The proof uses a new decomposition technique for quaternionic matrices.
