چکیده

Gaussian numbers, also called Gaussian polynomials or q-binomial coefficients are the q-analogs of common binomial coefficients. First introduced by Euler these polynomials have played an important role in many different branches of mathematics. Sylvester discovered the unimodality of their coefficients, using invariant theory. Gauss recognized the connection of the coefficients to proper integer partitions using a combinatorial interpretation. Here in this paper we are going to point out a new algebraic interpretation of the Gaussian polynomials as orbits of the Borel group on subspaces.

Unimodality via Kronecker Products

We present new proofs and generalizations of unimodality of the q-binomial coefficients ( n k ) q as polynomials in q. We use an algebraic approach by interpreting the differences between numbers of certain partitions as Kronecker coefficients of representations of Sn. Other applications of this approach include strict unimodality of the diagonal q-binomial coefficients and unimodality of certa...

Generalizing the Combinatorics of Binomial Coefficients via !-nomials

An !-sequence is defined by an = !an−1 − an−2, with initial conditions a0 = 0, a1 = 1. These !-sequences play a remarkable role in partition theory, allowing !generalizations of the Lecture Hall Theorem and Euler’s Partition Theorem. These special properties are not shared with other sequences, such as the Fibonacci sequence, defined by second-order linear recurrences. The !-sequence gives rise...

We start with a (q, t)-generalization of a binomial coefficient. It can be viewed as a polynomial in t that depends upon an integer q, with combinatorial interpretations when q is a positive integer, and algebraic interpretations when q is the order of a finite field. These (q, t)-binomial coefficients and their interpretations generalize further in two directions, one relating to column-strict...

A (q, t)-BINOMIAL COEFFICIENT FOR GLn(Fq)

Abstract. We investigate a (q, t)-generalization of the usual binomial and q-binomial coefficients. It can be viewed as a polynomial in t that depends upon an integer q, with combinatorial interpretations when q is a positive integer, and algebraic interpretations when q is the order of a finite field. These polynomials and their interpretations generalize further in two directions, one relatin...
