The authors review results implicit in their recent paper [2] on the product/quotient representation of rationals by rationals of the type $( an + b )/ ( An+ B )$ and give a detailed account of a particular related non-intuitive…

We give combinatorial proofs that certain families of differences of products of Schur functions are monomial-positive. We show in addition that such monomial-positivity is to be expected of a large class of generating functions with…

Motivated by Stanley's conjecture on the multiplication of Jack symmetric functions, we prove a couple of identities showing that skew Jack symmetric functions are semi-invariant up to translation and rotation of a $\pi$ angle of the skew…

Let $\Lambda$ be the space of symmetric functions and $V_k$ be the subspace spanned by the modified Schur functions $\{S_\lambda[X/(1-t)]\}_{\lambda_1\leq k}$. We introduce a new family of symmetric polynomials,…

We show that the Skolem Problem is decidable in finitely generated commutative rings of positive characteristic. More precisely, we show that there exists an algorithm which, given a finite presentation of a (unitary) commutative ring…

This note defines a family of Laurent polynomials (indexed in the rational projective line) which generalize the Markoff numbers and relate to the character variety of the one-cusped torus. We describe which monomials appear in each…

The aim of this study is to show that harmonic geometric polynomials can be represented in terms of geometric polynomials. This problem was first considered by Keller [14]; however, the corresponding coefficients were not fully determined.…

We describe a new formula for weight multiplicities and characters of semisimple Lie algebras. Our formula expresses these weight multiplicities as sums of positive rational numbers. In fact, the formula works more generally for the Jacobi…

Real algebraic geometry provides certificates for the positivity of polynomials on semi-algebraic sets by expressing them as a suitable combination of sums of squares and the defining inequalitites. We show how Putinar's theorem for…

Goulden and Jackson (1996) introduced, using Jack symmetric functions, some multivariate generating series $\psi(x, y, z; t, 1+\beta)$ that might be interpreted as a continuous deformation of the generating series of rooted hypermaps. They…

In this paper we consider the character of a finite dimensional algebraic representation of $GL_{mn}({\mathbb C})$ restricted to a particular disconnected component of the normalizer of the Levi subgroup $GL_m({\mathbb C})^n$ of…

Conjectural results for cohomological invariants of wild character varieties are obtained by counting curves in degenerate Calabi-Yau threefolds. A conjectural formula for E-polynomials is derived from the Gromov-Witten theory of local…

Applying E. Kowalski's recent generalization of the large sieve we prove that certain properties expected to be typical (irreducibility of the characteristic polynomial, absence of squares among the matrix coefficients...) are indeed…

The objective of this paper is, in the main, twofold: Firstly, to develop an algebraic setting for dealing with Bell polynomials and related extensions. Secondly, based on the author's previous work on multivariate Stirling polynomials…

Cylindric skew Schur functions, which are a generalisation of skew Schur functions, arise naturally in the study of P-partitions. Also, recent work of A. Postnikov shows they have a strong connection with a problem of considerable current…

In this paper we go on to discuss about Stanley's theorem in Integer partitions. We give two different versions for the proof of the generalization of Stanley's theorem illustrating different techniques that may be applied to profitably…

The main results of this note extend a theorem of Kesten for symmetric random walks on discrete groups to group extensions of topological Markov chains. In contrast to the result in probability theory, there is a notable asymmetry in the…

Let $G$ be a connected semisimple Lie group with a finite center, with a maximal compact subgroup $K$. There are two general methods to construct representations of $G$, namely, ordinary parabolic induction and cohomological parabolic…

We show that a Gibbs characterization of normalized generalized Gamma processes, recently obtained in Lijoi, Pr\"unster and Walker (2007), can alternatively be derived by exploiting a characterization of exponentially tilted Poisson-Kingman…

We prove a recent conjecture of Berndt and Kim regarding the positivity of the coefficients in the asymptotic expansion of a class of partial theta functions. This generalizes results found in Ramanujan's second notebook, and recent work of…
