We define the notions of successive ranks and generalized Durfee squares for overpartitions. We show how these combinatorial statistics give extensions to overpartitions of combin...
A matrix A is said to be partition regular (PR) over a subset S of the positive integers if whenever S is finitely coloured, there exists a vector x, with all elements in the sam...
Abstract. We develop linear representation theory for bicircular matroids, a chief example being a matroid associated with forests of a graph, and bicircular lift matroids, a chief...
Given a sequence of integers b = (b0,b1,b2,...) one gives a Dyck path P of length 2n the weight wt(P) = bh1 bh2 ···bhn , where hi is the height of the ith ascent of P. The corr...
We show that the Ehrhart h-vector of an integer Gorenstein polytope with a unimodular triangulation satisfies McMullen’s g-theorem; in particular it is unimodal. This result gen...
