Let $ped(n)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ wherein even parts are distinct (and odd parts are unrestricted). We show infinite families of congruences for $ped(n)$ modulo $8$. We also examine the behavior of $ped_{-2}(n)$ modulo $8$…

An identity that is reminiscent of the Littlewood identity plays a fundamental role in recent proofs of the facts that alternating sign triangles are equinumerous with totally symmetric self-complementary plane partitions and that…

A matching is compatible to two or more labeled point sets of size $n$ with labels $\{1,\dots,n\}$ if its straight-line drawing on each of these point sets is crossing-free. We study the maximum number of edges in a matching compatible to…

For $K$ a cubic field with only one real embedding and $\alpha,\beta\in K$, we show how to construct an increasing sequence $\{m_n\}$ of positive integers and a subsequence $\{\psi_n\}$ such that (for some constructible constants…

Sol LeWitt famously enumerated all the incomplete open cubes, finding 122 of these connected, non-planar subsets of the edges of the cube. Since then, while several projects have revisited the cube enumeration, no such enumeration has been…

The following assertion was equivalent to a conjecture proposed by B. Tomaszewski : Let $C$ be an $n$-dimensional unit cube and let $H$ be a plank of thickness $1$, both are centered at the origin, then no matter how to turn the cube…

We examine packing of $n$ congruent spheres in a cube when $n$ is close but less than the number of spheres in a regular cubic close-packed (ccp) arrangement of $\lceil p^{3}/2\rceil$ spheres. For this family of packings, the previous…

We give a complete description of all solutions to the equation $f_1^3 + f_2^3 = f_3^3 + f_4^3$ for quadratic forms $f_j \in \mathbb C[x,y]$ and show how Ramanujan's example can be extended to three equal sums of pairs of cubes. We also…

In this paper, we introduce a natural geometric extension of the partition function. More precisely, we investigate the problem of counting partitions of a rectangle into rectangular blocks with integer sides. Here, two partitions of a…

Two edge colorings of a graph are {\em edge-Kempe equivalent} if one can be obtained from the other by a series of edge-Kempe switches. This work gives some results for the number of edge-Kempe equivalence classes for cubic graphs. In…

For a smooth plane cubic $B$, we count curves $C$ of degree $d$ such that the normalizations of $C\backslash B$ are isomorphic to $\Bbb A^1$, for $d\leq7$ (for $d=7$ under some assumption). We also count plane rational quartic curves…

In this paper we generalize permutations to plane permutations. We employ this framework to derive a combinatorial proof of a result of Zagier and Stanley, that enumerates the number of $n$-cycles $\omega$, for which $\omega(12\cdots n)$…

We find by applying MacMahon's partition analysis that all magic labellings of the cube are of eight types, each generated by six basis elements. A combinatorial proof of this fact is given. The number of magic labellings of the cube is…

A well known open problem of Meir and Moser asks if the squares of sidelength $1/n$ for $n \geq 2$ can be packed perfectly into a square of area $\sum_{n=2}^\infty \frac{1}{n^2} = \frac{\pi^2}{6}-1$. In this paper we show that for any $1/2…

We prove that for all natural numbers k,n,d with k <= d and every partition lambda of size kn with at most k parts there exists an irreducible GL(d, C)-representation of highest weight 2*lambda in the plethysm Sym^k(Sym^(2n) (C^d)). This…

Two plane analytic branches are topologically equivalent if and only if they have the same multiplicity sequence. We show that having same semigroup is equivalent to having same multiplicity sequence, we calculate the semigroup from a…

For a positive integer $t$, let $b_{t}(n)$ denote the number of $t$-regular partitions of a nonnegative integer $n$. In a recent paper, Keith and Zanello established infinite families of congruences and self-similarity results modulo $2$…

Recently, Amdeberhan et al. proved congruences for the number of hooks of fixed even length among the set of self-conjugate partitions of an integer $n$, therefore answering positively a conjecture raised by Ballantine et al.. In this…

Recently, Andrews, Bhattacharjee and Dastidar introduced the concept of $k$-measure of an integer partition, and proved a surprising identity that the number of partitions of $n$ which have $2$-measure $m$ is equal to the number of…

Simultaneous core partitions have been widely studied since Anderson's work on the enumeration of $(s,t)$-core partitions. Amdeberhan and Leven showed that the number of $(s,s+1, \ldots, s+k)$-core partitions is equal to the number of $(s,…
