In general, Hurwitz numbers count branched covers of the Riemann sphere with prescribed ramification data, or equivalently, factorisations in the symmetric group with prescribed cycle structure data. In this paper, we initiate the study of…

Double Hurwitz numbers enumerating weighted $n$-sheeted branched coverings of the Riemann sphere or, equivalently, weighted paths in the Cayley graph of $S_n$ generated by transpositions are determined by an associated weight generating…

In this paper we study relations between intersection numbers on moduli spaces of curves and Hurwitz numbers. First, we prove two formulas expressing Hurwitz numbers of (generalized) polynomials via intersections on moduli spaces of curves.…

We study the representation theory of the cyclotomic Brauer algebra via truncation to idempotent subalgebras which are isomorphic to a product of walled and classical Brauer algebras. In particular, we determine the block structure and…

We prove sum formulas for double polylogarithms of Hurwitz type, that is, involving a shifting parameter $b$ in the denominator. These formulas especially imply well-known sum formulas for double zeta values, and sum formulas for double…

We discuss the zero sets of two-variable polynomials as they relate to an approximation problem in the Hardy space on the bidisk.

We introduce partially multiplicative quandles (PMQ), a generalisation of both partial monoids and quandles. We set up the basic theory of PMQs, focusing on the properties of free PMQs and complete PMQs. For a PMQ $\mathcal{Q}$ with…

We extend a holomorphic projection argument of our earlier work to prove a novel divisibility result for non-holomorphic congruences of Hurwitz class numbers. This result allows us to establish Ramanujan-type congruences for Hurwitz class…

The Alexander-Hirschowitz theorem says that a general collection of $k$ double points in ${\bf P}^n$ imposes independent conditions on homogeneous polynomials of degree $d$ with a well known list of exceptions. We generalize this theorem to…

Hurwitz numbers enumerate branched morphisms between Riemann surfaces. For a fixed elliptic target, Hurwitz numbers are intimately related to mirror symmetry following work of Dijkgraaf. In recent work of Chapuy and Dolega a new variant of…

The classical Hurwitz numbers which count coverings of a complex curve have an analog when the curve is endowed with a theta characteristic. These "spin Hurwitz numbers", recently studied by Eskin, Okounkov and Pandharipande, are…

We begin by considering a sequence of polynomials in three variables whose coefficients count restricted binary overpartitions with certain properties. We then concentrate on two specific subsequences that are closely related to the…

Inspired by piecewise polynomiality results of double Hurwitz numbers, Ardila and Brugall\'e introduced an enumerative problem which they call double Gromov--Witten invariants of Hirzebruch surfaces. These invariants serve as a…

We introduce new logarithmic Hurwitz spaces $\mathcal{LH}^{\mathbb{Z}_{(p)}}_A$ and $\mathcal{LH}^{\mathbb{F}_{p}}_{A,\Xi}$ over $\mathbb{Z}_{(p)}$ and $\mathbb{F}_p$ respectively that in the mixed characteristic case can be considered as a…

In this paper, we obtain a Schwartz-Zippel type estimate for homogenous finite field polynomials. Specifically, we use a probabilistic recursion technique to find upper and lower bounds for the number of zeros of a homogenous polynomial and…

The main goal of the present paper are new formulae for degrees of strata in Hurwitz spaces of rational functions having two degenerate critical values with preimages of prescribed multiplicities. We consider the case where the…

A Newman polynomial has all the coefficients in $\{ 0,1\}$ and constant term 1, whereas a Littlewood polynomial has all coefficients in $\{-1,1\}$. We call $P(X)\in\mathbb{Z}[X]$ a Borwein polynomial if all its coefficients belong to $\{…

In this paper we find an explicit formula for the number of topologically different ramified coverings $C\to\CP^1$ (C is a compact Riemann surface of genus g) with only one complicated branching point in terms of Hodge integrals over the…

We investigate the Hurwitz existence problem from a computational viewpoint. Leveraging the symmetric-group algorithm by Zheng and building upon implementations originally developed by Baroni, we achieve a complete and non-redundant…

Enumerating bicolored maps and maps according to the numbers (and possibly types) of edges, faces, white vertices, black vertices and genus has been an important topic arising in many fields of mathematics and physics. In particular,…
