A Topological View of Reed–Solomon Codes
We studied a particular class of well known error-correcting codes known as Reed–Solomon codes. We constructed RS codes as algebraic-geometric codes from the normal rational curve.

Combinatorics of k-shapes and Genocchi numbers [PDF]
In this paper we present a work in progress on a conjectural new combinatorial model for the Genocchi numbers. This new model called irreducible k-shapes has a strong algebraic background in the theory of symmetric functions and leads to seemingly new ...

From Symmetric Functions to Partition Identities
In this paper, we show that some classical results from q-analysis and partition theory are specializations of the fundamental relationships between complete and elementary symmetric functions.

Counting Shi regions with a fixed separating wall [PDF]
Athanasiadis introduced separating walls for a region in the extended Shi arrangement and used them to generalize the Narayana numbers. In this paper, we fix a hyperplane in the extended Shi arrangement for type A and calculate the number of dominant ...

Recursive formulae for the multiplicative partition function
For a positive integer n, let f(n) be the number of essentially different ways of writing n as a product of factors greater than 1, where two factorizations of a positive integer are said to be essentially the same if they differ only in the order of the

Geometry and complexity of O'Hara's algorithm [PDF]
In this paper we analyze O'Hara's partition bijection. We present three type of results. First, we see that O'Hara's bijection can be viewed geometrically as a certain scissor congruence type result.

A simple proof of Pitman–Yor’s Chinese restaurant process from its stick-breaking representation
For a long time, the Dirichlet process has been the gold standard discrete random measure in Bayesian nonparametrics. The Pitman-Yor process provides a simple and mathematically tractable generalization, allowing for a very flexible control of the ...

On Macrostates in Complex Multi-Scale Systems
A characteristic feature of complex systems is their deep structure, meaning that the definition of their states and observables depends on the level, or the scale, at which the system is considered.

Introduction to logical entropy and its relationship to Shannon entropy
We live in the information age. Claude Shannon, as the father of the information age, gave us a theory of communications that quantified an “amount of information,” but, as he pointed out, “no concept of information itself was defined.” Logical entropy ...

Top Coefficients of the Denumerant [PDF]
For a given sequence $\alpha = [\alpha_1,\alpha_2,\ldots , \alpha_N, \alpha_{N+1}]$ of $N+1$ positive integers, we consider the combinatorial function $E(\alpha)(t)$ that counts the nonnegative integer solutions of the equation $\alpha_1x_1+\alpha_2 x_2+
