Tangency quantum cohomology and characteristic numbers

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2001
This work establishes a connection between gravitational quantum cohomology and enumerative geometry of rational curves (in a projective homogeneous variety) subject to conditions of infinitesimal nature like, for example, tangency.

COMBINATORIAL ANALYSIS OF THE DOMINOES SCHEME AND THE CASE OF FIXED MINIMAL FIGURE ON A DOMINO TILE

open access: yesTransactions of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2017
The dominoes scheme is defined as a scheme of random tiling with poliomino tiles with $r$ ends and $n$ figures from 0 to $(n-1)$ on the ends of tiles of all possible compositions with repetitions, regardless of their order.

Unimodality Problems in Ehrhart Theory

open access: yes, 2017
Ehrhart theory is the study of sequences recording the number of integer points in non-negative integral dilates of rational polytopes. For a given lattice polytope, this sequence is encoded in a finite vector called the Ehrhart $h^*$-vector. Ehrhart $h^*

Some applications of Rees products of posets to equivariant gamma-positivity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The Rees product of partially ordered sets was introduced by Bj\"orner and Welker. Using the theory of lexicographic shellability, Linusson, Shareshian and Wachs proved formulas, of significance in the theory of gamma-positivity, for the dimension of the

New directions in enumerative chess problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Normally a chess problem must have a unique solution, and is deemed unsound even if there are alternatives that differ only in the order in which the same moves are played.

The Role of Dice in the Emergence of the Probability Calculus

open access: yesInternational Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary The early development of the probability calculus was clearly influenced by the roll of dice. However, while dice have been cast since time immemorial, documented calculations on the frequency of various dice throws date back only to the mid‐13th century.

Simple 3‐Designs of PSL ( 2 , 2 n ) With Block Size 13

open access: yesJournal of Combinatorial Designs, Volume 34, Issue 3, Page 119-138, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper focuses on the investigation of simple 3‐( 2 n + 1 , 13 , λ ) designs admitting PSL ( 2 , 2 n ) as an automorphism group. Such designs arise from the orbits of 13‐element subsets under the action of PSL ( 2 , 2 n ) on the projective line X = GF ( 2 n ) ∪ { ∞ }, and any union of these orbits also forms a 3‐design.

Transitive factorizations of permutations and geometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We give an account of our work on transitive factorizations of permutations. The work has had impact upon other areas of mathematics such as the enumeration of graph embeddings, random matrices, branched covers, and the moduli spaces of curves.

Enumeration of simple random walks and tridiagonal matrices

open access: yes, 2002
We present some old and new results in the enumeration of random walks in one dimension, mostly developed in works of enumerative combinatorics. The relation between the trace of the $n$-th power of a tridiagonal matrix and the enumeration of weighted ...
