Combinatorial interpretations of the q-Faulhaber and q-Salié coefficients

Recently, Guo and Zeng discovered two families of polynomials featuring in a q-analogue of Faulhaber's formula for the sums of powers and a q-analogue of Gessel-Viennot's formula involving Salié's coefficients for the alternating sums of powers. In this paper, we show that these are polynomials with symmetric, nonnegative integral coefficients by refining Gessel-Viennot's combinatorial interpretations.     

Permutations via linear translators

We show that many infinite classes of permutations over finite fields can be constructed via translators with a large choice of parameters. We first characterize some functions having linear translators, based on which several families of permutations are then derived. Extending the results of [9], we give in several cases the compositional inverse of these permutations. The connection with complete permutations is also utilized to provide further infinite classes of permutations. Moreover, we propose new tools to study permutations of the form $x\mapsto x+{(x^{p^m}-x+\delta )}^s$ and a few infinite classes of permutations of this form are proposed.     

Indefinite integrals involving complete elliptic integrals of the third kind

A method developed recently for obtaining indefinite integrals of functions obeying inhomogeneous second-order linear differential equations has been applied to obtain integrals with respect to the modulus of the complete elliptic integral of the third kind. A formula is derived which gives an integral involving the complete integral of the third kind for every known integral for the complete elliptic integral of the second kind. The formula requires only differentiation and can therefore be applied for any such integral, and it is applied here to almost all such integrals given in the literature. Some additional integrals are derived using the recurrence relations for the complete elliptic integrals. This gives a total of 27 integrals for the complete integral of the third kind, including the single integral given in the literature. Some typographical errors in a previous related paper are corrected.     

Precise asymptotics in the deviation probability series of self-normalized sums

Let X,X₁,X₂,… be a sequence of nondegenerate i.i.d. random variables with zero means. Set Sn=X₁+?+Xn and . In the present paper we examine the precise asymptotic behavior for the general deviation probabilities of self-normalized sums, Sn/Wn. For positive functions g(x), ?(x), α(x) and κ(x), we obtain the precise asymptotics for the following deviation probabilities of self-normalized sums:

     

A complete set of addition laws for incomplete Edwards curves

Edwards curves were the first curves shown to have a complete addition law. However, the completeness of the addition law depends on the curve parameters and even a complete Edwards curve becomes incomplete over a quadratic field extension. This paper covers arbitrary Edwards curves and gives a set of two addition laws that for any pair of input points P₁, P₂ produce the sum P₁+P₂.

First findings of monocrystalline aragonite inclusions in garnet from diamond-grade UHPM rocks (Kokchetav Massif, Northern Kazakhstan)

The crystal field effect and microscopic origins of the Zeeman g-factors g(//) and g(⊥) for (6)S(3d(5)) state ions at tetragonal symmetry crystal filed, taking into account the spin-spin (SS), the spin-other-orbit (SOO), and the orbit-orbit (OO) magnetic interactions besides the well-known spin-orbit (SO) magnetic interaction, have been investigated using the microscopic spin Hamiltonian theory and the complete diagonalization method (CDM). It is found that the g(//)(±1/2)≠g(//)(±5/2) and g(⊥)(±1/2)≠g(⊥)(±5/2), where the g-factors g(//)(±1/2) and g(⊥)(±1/2) express the g-factors of the ground state |M?(s)=±1/2), whereas the g-factors g(//)(±5/2) and g(⊥)(±5/2) express the g-factors of the ground state |M?(s)=±5/2). It is shown that although the SO magnetic interaction is the most important one, the contributions to the shifts of g-factors Δg(//)(=2.0023-g(//)) and Δg(⊥)(=2.0023-g(⊥)) from other three magnetic interactions including the SS, SOO, and OO magnetic interactions are appreciable and should not be omitted, especially for the shifts of g-factors Δg(//)(±5/2) and Δg(⊥)(±5/2). The individual contributions to the shifts of g-factors arising from the spin quartet states and spin doublet states have been studied. The investigations show that the Δg(//)(±1/2) and Δg(⊥)(±1/2) primarily result from the spin quartet states, whereas Δg(//)(±5/2) and Δg(⊥)(±5/2) from the spin quartet states as well as the combined effects between the spin quartet states and the spin doublet states. The contribution to the shifts of g-factors from the net spin doublet states is zero.     

On the K-stability of complete intersections in polarized manifolds

We consider the problem of existence of constant scalar curvature Kähler metrics on complete intersections of sections of vector bundles. In particular we give general formulas relating the Futaki invariant of such a manifold to the weight of sections defining it and to the Futaki invariant of the ambient manifold. As applications we give a new Mukai–Umemura–Tian like example of Fano 5-fold admitting no Kähler–Einstein metric, and a strong evidence of K-stability of complete intersections in Grassmannians.     

Vertex coloring complete multipartite graphs from random lists of size 2

Let K_s×m be the complete multipartite graph with s parts and m vertices in each part. Assign to each vertex v of K_s×m a list L(v) of colors, by choosing each list uniformly at random from all 2-subsets of a color set C of size σ(m). In this paper we determine, for all fixed s and growing m, the asymptotic probability of the existence of a proper coloring φ, such that φ(v)∈L(v) for all v∈V(K_s×m). We show that this property exhibits a sharp threshold at σ(m)=2(s−1)m.     

Lambda-fold 2-perfect 6-cycle systems in equipartite graphs

A 6-cycle system of a graph G is an edge-disjoint decomposition of G into 6-cycles. Graphs G, for which necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of a 6-cycle system have been found, include complete graphs and complete equipartite graphs. A 6-cycle system of G is said to be 2-perfect if the graph formed by joining all vertices distance 2 apart in the 6-cycles is again an edge-disjoint decomposition of G, this time into 3-cycles, since the distance 2 graph in any 6-cycle is a pair of disjoint 3-cycles.Necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of 2-perfect 6-cycle systems of both complete graphs and complete equipartite graphs are known, and also of λ-fold complete graphs. In this paper, we complete the problem, giving necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of λ-fold 2-perfect 6-cycle systems of complete equipartite graphs.
