Enumerating matrices with prescribed entries in an adjoint orbit
Samrith Ram
We study intersections of conjugacy classes of square matrices over a finite field with affine coordinate subspaces, or equivalently matrices in a fixed adjoint orbit with prescrib…
Straight polyomino tilings of rectangles and special rim-hook tableaux
Mudit Aggarwal, Hrishik Koley, Samrith Ram
We derive explicit rational generating functions for weighted tilings of rectangles by straight tiles. Our approach combines a decomposition by fault lines…
Counting -points of orbital varieties in ad-nilpotent ideals of type
Mohammad Bardestani, Keivan Mallahi-Karai, Samrith Ram +1
Let denote the Lie algebra of upper triangular matrices over the finite field , and let be the ni…
Counting points on Hessenberg Varieties over finite fields
Alex Abreu, Antonio Nigro, Samrith Ram
We give a counting formula in terms of modified Hall-Littlewood polynomials and the chromatic quasisymmetric function for the number of points on an arbitrary Hessenberg variety ov…
Diagonal operators, -Whittaker functions and rook theory
Samrith Ram, Michael J. Schlosser
We discuss the problem posed by Bender, Coley, Robbins and Rumsey of enumerating the number of subspaces which have a given profile with respect to a linear operator over the finit…
Enumerating partial linear transformations in a similarity class
Akansha Arora, Samrith Ram
Let be a finite-dimensional vector space over the finite field and suppose and are subspaces of . Two linear transformations a…
