Weighted Forms of Euler's Theorem

William Y. C. Chen, Kathy Q. Ji

In answer to a question of Andrews about finding combinatorial proofs of two identities in Ramanujan's "Lost" Notebook, we obtain weighted forms of Euler's theorem on partitions wi…

Noncrossing Trees and Noncrossing Graphs

William Y. C. Chen, Sherry H. F. Yan

We give a parity reversing involution on noncrossing trees that leads to a combinatorial interpretation of a formula on noncrossing trees and symmetric ternary trees in answer to a…

Matrix Identities on Weighted Partial Motzkin Paths

William Y. C. Chen, Nelson Y. Li, Louis W. Shapiro +1

We give a combinatorial interpretation of a matrix identity on Catalan numbers and the sequence which has been derived by Shapiro, Woan and Getu by using Ri…

Stanley's Zrank Problem on Skew Partitions

William Y. C. Chen, Arthur L. B. Yang

We present an affirmative answer to Stanley's zrank problem, namely, the zrank and rank are equal for any skew partition. We show that certain classes of restricted Cauchy matrices…

The Zrank Conjecture and Restricted Cauchy Matrices

Guo-Guang Yan, Arthur L. B. Yang, Joan J. Zhou

The rank of a skew partition , denoted , is the smallest number such that is a disjoint union of border strips. Let denote the skew Sch…

Division and the Giambelli Identity

Susan Y. J. Wu, Arthur L. B. Yang

Given two polynomials f(x) and g(x), we extend the formula expressing the remainder in terms of the roots of these two polynomials to the case where f(x) is a Laurent polynomial. T…
