Transfer Matrices and Ehrhart Theory for Path and Cyclic Block Polytopes

Xinru Jiang, Shuai Yang, Yueming Zhong

We study block polytopes whose variables are divided into equal-size blocks and whose local inequalities bound the total contribution of adjacent blocks. For blocks arranged along…

On Parity Unimodality of -Catalan Polynomials

Guoce Xin, Yueming Zhong

A polynomial is said to be unimodal if . We investigate the unimodality of rational -Catal…

Proving some conjectures on Kekulé numbers for certain benzenoids by using Chebyshev polynomials

Guoce Xin, Yueming Zhong

In chemistry, Cyvin-Gutman enumerates Kekulé numbers for certain benzenoids and record it as on OEIS. This number is exactly the two variable array defined by t…

Magic labelling enumeration on pseudo-line graphs and pseudo-cycle graphs

Guoce Xin, Yueming Zhong, Yangbiao Zhou

Stanley's theorem establishes that for any finite graph , the number of magic labelings with magic sum can be expressed as a sum of two polynomials in . However,…

The constant term algebra of type : the Structure

Guoce Xin, Chen Zhang, Yue Zhou +1

In this paper, we discover a new noncommutative algebra. We refer this algebra as the constant term algebra of type , which is generated by certain constant term operators. We c…

Alternating adjacent-sum polytopes: transfer matrices and Ehrhart series

Xinru Jiang, Suzhen Wen, Yueming Zhong

The paper investigates a family of alternating adjacent‑sum lattice polytopes, deriving explicit transfer‑matrix representations and detailed Ehrhart generating functions, recurren…
