In this paper, we describe properties of the characteristic polynomial of a weighted lattice and show that it has a recursive description, which we use to obtain results on the critical exponent of q-polymatroids. We give a Critical Theorem for representable q-polymatroids and we provide a lower bound on the critical exponent. We show that q-polymatroids arising from certain families of rank-metric codes attain this lower bound.

It is well known that the algebraic multiplicity of an eigenvalue of a graph (or real symmetric matrix) is equal to the dimension of its corresponding linear eigen-subspace, also known as the geometric multiplicity. However, for hypergraphs, the relationship between these two multiplicities remains an open problem. For a graph and , the k-power hypergraph is a k-uniform hypergraph obtained by adding new vertices to each edge of G, who always has non-real eigenvalues. In this paper, we determine the second-largest modulus Λ among the eigenvalues of , which is indeed an eigenvalue of . The projective eigenvariety associated with Λ is the set of the eigenvectors of corresponding to Λ considered in the complex projective space. We show that the dimension of is zero, i.e., there are finitely many eigenvectors corresponding to Λ up to a scalar. We give both the algebraic multiplicity of Λ and the total multiplicity of the eigenvector in in terms of the number of the weakest edges of G. Our results show that these two multiplicities are equal.

The R-hulloid, in the Euclidean space , of the set of vertices V of a tetrahedron T is the minimal closed set containing V such that its complement is the union of open balls of radius R. When R is greater than the circumradius of T, the boundary of the R-hulloid consists of V and possibly of four spherical subsets of well defined spheres of radius R through the vertices of T. The existence of a value such that these subsets collapse into a point , in the interior of T, is investigated; in such a case belongs to four spheres of radius , each one through three vertices of T and not containing the fourth one. As a consequence, the range of ρ such that V is a ρ-body is described completely. This work generalizes to dimension three previous results, proved in the planar case and related to the three circles Johnson's Theorem.

Extending classical results on polytopal approximation of convex bodies, we derive asymptotic formulas for the weighted approximation of smooth convex functions by piecewise affine convex functions as the number of their facets tends to infinity. These asymptotic expressions are formulated in terms of a functional that extends the notion of affine surface area to the functional setting.

It is a standard result that the Hankel determinants for a sequence stay invariant after performing the binomial transform on this sequence. In this work, we extend the scenario to q-binomial transforms and study the behavior of the leading coefficient in such Hankel determinants. We also investigate the leading coefficient in the Hankel determinants for even-indexed Bernoulli polynomials with recourse to a curious binomial transform. In particular, the degrees of these Hankel determinants share the same nature as those in one of the q-binomial cases.

Polynomial expansions of analytic solutions of the heat equation occupy important positions in disciplines such as mathematics and physics [68]. In this paper, we introduce q-3D hypergeometric polynomials and find their corresponding q-heat equations, which were motivated by Ismail and Zhang (2016) [32] and (2017) [33]. We deduce several types of generating functions for q-3D hypergeometric polynomials and Askey–Wilson type integral involving q-3D hypergeometric polynomials by the method of heat equation type q-partial differential equations. In addition, we generalize some results of Ismail and Zhang (2017) [33], Milne (1997) [49] and Jia (2021) [38].
热方程解析解的多项式展开式在数学、物理等学科中占有重要地位[68]。本文引入了由Ismail and Zhang(2016)[32]和(2017)[33]提出的q-3D超几何多项式,并找到了其对应的q-heat方程。利用热方程型q-偏微分方程的方法推导了q-3D超几何多项式的几种生成函数和涉及q-3D超几何多项式的Askey-Wilson型积分。此外,我们还推广了Ismail and Zhang (2017) b[33]、Milne(1997)[49]和Jia(2021)[38]的一些结果。

They consist of the permutations avoiding an arbitrary set of permutations without global descents, 2. A HA of pairs of parking filtrations, and 3. Four HA of pairs of preorders.
New concepts in this setting are: 1. a category whose objects are sets, but morphisms are represented by matrices of natural numbers, and 2. restriction species on sets coming with pairs of natural transformations to the species of preorders. These induce two coproducts and . Dualizing gives product and coproduct , giving bimonoid species.

The permutation-partition pair was initially introduced by Stahl in 1980 and independently by Archdeacon in a geometric form in 1986. This pair is a generalization of graphs and oriented embeddings of graphs. This paper introduces a concept of a pre-signed graph, which serves as an extension of both signed graphs and signed graph embeddings. Additionally, we extend a theorem for counting the number of faces of oriented embeddings of graphs that pass through a given cut-edge set to an embedding on any surface. Finally, we extend certain theorems proposed by Stahl and Lee regarding the average genus of graphs to include signed graphs.
