This habilitation thesis summarizes the research that I have carried out from 2005 to 2019. It is organized in four chapters. The first three deal with random planar maps. Chapter 1 is about their metric properties: from a general…
In this article we prove that the lattice of noncrossing partitions is EL-shellable when associated with the well-generated complex reflection group of type $G(d,d,n)$, for $d,n\geq 3$, or with the exceptional well-generated complex…
Matrix configurations define noncommutative spaces endowed with extra structure including a generalized Laplace operator, and hence a metric structure. Made dynamical via matrix models, they describe rich physical systems including…
The evaluation of partition functions is a central problem in statistical physics. For lattice systems and other discrete models the partition function may be expressed as the contraction of a tensor network. Unfortunately computing such…
Traversals of data structures are ubiquitous in programming. Consequently, it is important to be able to characterise those structures that are traversable and understand their algebraic properties. Traversable functors have been…
Noncrossing set partitions, nonnesting set partitions, Dyck paths, and rooted plane trees are four classes of Catalan objects which carry a notion of type. There exists a product formula which enumerates these objects according to type. We…
We study fluctuation properties of embedded random matrix ensembles of non-interacting particles. For ensemble of two non-interacting particle systems, we find that unlike the spectra of classical random matrices, correlation functions are…
The number of partitions of $n$ wherein odd parts are distinct and even parts are unrestricted, often denoted by $pod(n)$. In this paper, we provide linear recurrence relations for $pod(n)$, and the connections of $pod(n)$ with other…
Partition functions for non-interacting particles are known to be symmetric functions. It is shown that powerful group-theoretical techniques can be used not only to derive these relationships, but also to significantly simplify calculation…
Given a surface with boundary and some points on its boundary, a polygon diagram is a way to connect those points as vertices of non-overlapping polygons on the surface. Such polygon diagrams represent non-crossing permutations on a surface…
Lattice discretizations of continuous manifolds are common tools used in a variety of physical contexts. Conventional discrete approximations, however, cannot capture all aspects of the original manifold, notably its topology. In this paper…
A \emph{set partition} of the set $[n]=\{1,...c,n\}$ is a collection of disjoint blocks $B_1,B_2,...c, B_d$ whose union is $[n]$. We choose the ordering of the blocks so that they satisfy $\min B_1<\min B_2<...b<\min B_d$. We represent such…
Categories of partitions are combinatorial structures arising from the representation theory of certain compact quantum groups and are linked to classical diagram algebras such as the Temperley-Lieb algebra. In this paper, we present…
We study the set $S_{ann-nc}$ of permutations of $\{1, ..., p+q \}$ which are non-crossing in an annulus with $p$ points marked on its external circle and $q$ points marked on its internal circle. The algebraic approach to $S_{ann-nc}$ goes…
Higher braiding gates, a new kind of quantum gate, are introduced. These are matrix solutions of the polyadic braid equations (which differ from the generalized Yang-Baxter equations). Such gates support a special kind of multi-qubit…
It is becoming increasingly clear that the supercharacter theory of the finite group of unipotent upper-triangular matrices has a rich combinatorial structure built on set-partitions that is analogous to the partition combinatorics of the…
Bargraphs are a special class of convex polyominoes. They can be identified with lattice paths with unit steps north, east, and south that start at the origin, end on the $x$-axis, and stay strictly above the $x$-axis everywhere except at…
In this paper, we use a simple discrete dynamical model to study partitions of integers into powers of another integer. We extend and generalize some known results about their enumeration and counting, and we give new structural results. In…
We study compositions whose parts are colored by subsequences of the Fibonacci numbers. We give explicit bijections between Fibonacci colored compositions and several combinatorial objects, including certain restricted ternary and…
We characterize numerical semigroups for which the poset of its ideal class monoid is a lattice, and study the irreducible elements of such a lattice with respect to union, intersection, infimum and supremum.
