I present a recursive formula for calculating the number of abelian squares of length $n+n$ over an alphabet of size $d$. The presented formula is similar to a previously known formula but has substantially lower complexity when $d\gg n$.
We consider the problem of counting commuting r-tuples of elements of the symmetric group S_n, i.e. computing |Hom(Z^r,S_n)|. The cases r=1,2 are well-known; a product formula for the case r=3 was conjectured by Adams-Watters and later proved by Britnell. In this note we solve the problem for arbitrary r.
We find the number of compositions over finite abelian groups under two types of restrictions: (i) each part belongs to a given subset and (ii) small runs of consecutive parts must have given properties. Waring's problem over finite fields can be converted to type~(i) compositions, whereas Carlitz and locally Mullen compositions can be formulated as type~(ii) compositions. We use the multisection formula to translate the problem from integers to group elements, the transfer matrix method to do exact counting, and finally the Perron-Frobenius theorem to derive asymptotics. We also exhibit bijec…
In a recent work I developed a formula for efficiently calculating the number of abelian squares of length $t+t$ over an alphabet of size $d$, where $d$ may be very large. Here I show how the expressiveness of a certain class of parameterized quantum circuits can be reduced to the problem of counting abelian squares over a large alphabet, and use the recently developed formula to efficiently calculate this quantity.
We provide new examples of the asymptotic counting for the number of subsets on groups of given size which are free of certain configurations. These examples include sets without solutions to equations in non-abelian groups, and linear configurations in abelian groups defined from group homomorphisms. The results are obtained by combining the methodology of hypergraph containers joint with arithmetic removal lemmas. As a consequence, random counterparts are presented as well.
We use recurrence relations to derive explicit formulas for counting the number of subgroups of given order (or index) in rank 3 finite abelian p-groups and use these to derive similar formulas in few cases for rank 4. As a consequence, we answer some questions by M. T$\ddot{a}$rn$\ddot{a}$uceanu in \cite{MT} and L. T$\dot{\acute{o}}$th in \cite{LT}. We also use other methods such as the method of fundamental group lattices introduced in \cite{MT} to derive a similar counting function in a special case of arbitrary rank finite abelian p-groups.
We are counting the lattice rectangles that can be constructed inside several planar shapes and identify the corresponding sequences in the OEIS.
In an abelian group G, a more sums than differences (MSTD) set is a subset A of G such that |A+A|>|A-A|. We provide asymptotics for the number of MSTD sets in finite abelian groups, extending previous results of Nathanson. The proof contains an application of a recently resolved conjecture of Alon and Kahn on the number of independent sets in a regular graph.
In this paper we produce a generating function for the number of hyperelliptic curves (up to translation) on a polarized Abelian surfaces using the crepant resolution conjecture and the Yau-Zaslow formula. We present a formula to compute these in terms of MacMahon's generalized sum-of-divisors functions, and prove that they are quasi-modular forms.
We present and discuss a number of known results and open problems abelian squares in words on small alphabets.
The paper deals with a problem of Additive Combinatorics. Let ${\mathbf G}$ be a finite abelian group of order $N$. We prove that the number of subset triples $A,B,C\subset {\mathbf G}$ such that for any $x\in A$, $y\in B$ and $z\in C$ one has $x+y\ne z$ equals $$ 3\cdot 4^N+N3^{N+1} + O((3-c_*)^N) $$ for some absolute constant $c_*>0$. This provides a tight estimate for the number of independent sets in a special 3-uniform linear hypergraph and gives a support for the natural conjecture concerning the maximal possible number of independent sets in such hypergraphs on $n$ vertices.
In this paper we study sum-free sets of order $m$ in finite Abelian groups. We prove a general theorem on 3-uniform hypergraphs, which allows us to deduce structural results in the sparse setting from stability results in the dense setting. As a consequence, we determine the typical structure and asymptotic number of sum-free sets of order $m$ in Abelian groups $G$ whose order is divisible by a prime $q$ with $q \equiv 2 \pmod 3$, for every $m \ge C(q) \sqrt{n \log n}$, thus extending and refining a theorem of Green and Ruzsa. In particular, we prove that almost all sum-free subsets of size $m…
An efficient, when compared to exhaustive enumeration, algorithm for computing the number of square-free words of length $n$ over the alphabet $\{a, b, c\}$ is presented.
Magic squares on Abelian groups

We introduce new avoidability problems for words by considering equivalence relations, k-abelian equivalences, which lie properly in between equality and commutative equality, i.e. abelian equality. For two k-abelian equivalent words the numbers of occurrences of different factors of length k coincide and the prefixies (resp. suffixies) of length k-1 are equal as well. The size of the smallest alphabet avoiding 2-repetitions of words, i.e. squares, is three and for abelian squares it is four. It follows that for 2-abelian squares this size has to be three or four. Similarly, the size of the sm…
A counting proof for the smallest critical set in a Latin square
本文通过模2计数论证，证明阶为n的拉丁方的最小临界集尺寸为⌊n²/4⌋，证实了相关猜想，且证明过程使用了AI辅助。
Partial difference sets (for short, PDSs) with parameters ($n^2$, $r(n-ε)$, $εn+r^2-3εr$, $r^2-εr$) are called Latin square type (respectively negative Latin square type) PDSs if $ε=1$ (respectively $ε=-1$). In this paper, we will give restrictions on the parameter $r$ of a (negative) Latin square type partial difference set in an abelian group of non-prime power order. As far as we know no previous general restrictions on $r$ were known. Our restrictions are particularly useful when $a$ is much larger than $b$. As an application, we show that if there exists an abelian negative Latin square t…

The number of essentially different square polyominoes of order n and minimum perimeter p(n) is enumerated.
A finite word $w$ is an abelian square if $w = xx^\prime$ with $x^\prime$ a permutation of $x$. In 1972, Entringer, Jackson, and Schatz proved that every binary word of length $k^2 + 6k$ contains an abelian square of length $\geq 2k$. We use Cartesian lattice paths to characterize abelian squares in binary sequences, and construct a binary word of length $q(q+1)$ avoiding abelian squares of length $\geq 2\sqrt{2q(q+1)}$ or greater. We thus prove that the length of the longest binary word avoiding abelian squares of length $2k$ is $Θ(k^2)$.
Combining results on quadrics in projective geometries with an algebraic interplay between finite fields and Galois rings, we construct the first known family of partial difference sets with negative Latin square type parameters in nonelementary abelian groups, the groups $\Z_4^{2k}\times \Z_2^{4 \ell-4k}$ for all $k$ when $\ell$ is odd and for all $k < \ell$ when $\ell$ is even. Similarly, we construct partial difference sets with Latin square type parameters in the same groups for all $k$ when $\ell$ is even and for all $k<\ell$ when $\ell$ is odd. These constructions provide the first examp…

An abelian square is the concatenation of two words that are anagrams of one another. A word of length $n$ can contain at most $Θ(n^2)$ distinct factors, and there exist words of length $n$ containing $Θ(n^2)$ distinct abelian-square factors, that is, distinct factors that are abelian squares. This motivates us to study infinite words such that the number of distinct abelian-square factors of length $n$ grows quadratically with $n$. More precisely, we say that an infinite word $w$ is {\it abelian-square-rich} if, for every $n$, every factor of $w$ of length $n$ contains, on average, a number o…

A recent paper of Church, Ellenberg, and Farb uses topology and representation theory of the symmetric group to prove enumerative results about square-free polynomials and F-stable maximal tori of the general linear group over the algebraic closure of F_q. In this note, we use generating functions to give elementary proofs of some of their results, and some extensions.

We study the avoidability of long $k$-abelian-squares and $k$-abelian-cubes on binary and ternary alphabets. For $k=1$, these are Mäkelä's questions. We show that one cannot avoid abelian-cubes of abelian period at least $2$ in infinite binary words, and therefore answering negatively one question from Mäkelä. Then we show that one can avoid $3$-abelian-squares of period at least $3$ in infinite binary words and $2$-abelian-squares of period at least 2 in infinite ternary words. Finally we study the minimum number of distinct $k$-abelian-squares that must appear in an infinite binary word.

We introduce and study the notion of the $G$-Tutte polynomial for a list $\mathcal{A}$ of elements in a finitely generated abelian group $Γ$ and an abelian group $G$, which is defined by counting the number of homomorphisms from associated finite abelian groups to $G$. The $G$-Tutte polynomial is a common generalization of the (arithmetic) Tutte polynomial for realizable (arithmetic) matroids, the characteristic quasi-polynomial for integral arrangements, Brändén-Moci's arithmetic version of the partition function of an abelian group-valued Potts model, and the modified Tutte-Krushkal-Renhardy…
We present a randomized algorithm, which, given positive integers n and t and a real number 0< epsilon <1, computes the number Sigma(n, t) of n x n non-negative integer matrices (magic squares) with the row and column sums equal to t within relative error epsilon. The computational complexity of the algorithm is polynomial in 1/epsilon and quasi-polynomial in N=nt, that is, of the order N^{log N}. A simplified version of the algorithm works in time polynomial in 1/epsilon and N and estimates Sigma(n,t) within a factor of N^{log N}. This simplified version has been implemented. We present resul…

We study the problem HomsTo$H$ of counting, modulo 2, the homomorphisms from an input graph to a fixed undirected graph $H$. A characteristic feature of modular counting is that cancellations make wider classes of instances tractable than is the case for exact (non-modular) counting, so subtle dichotomy theorems can arise. We show the following dichotomy: for any $H$ that contains no 4-cycles, HomsTo$H$ is either in polynomial time or is $\oplus P$-complete. This confirms a conjecture of Faben and Jerrum that was previously only known to hold for trees and for a restricted class of treewidth-2…

On the math-fun mailing list (7 May 2013), Neil Sloane asked to calculate the number of $n \times n$ matrices with entries in $\{0,1\}$ which are squares of other such matrices. In this paper we analyze the case that the arithmetic is in $\mathbb{F}_{2}$. We follow the dictum of Wilf ("What is an answer?") to derive a "effective" algorithm to count such matrices in much less time than it takes to enumerate them. The algorithm which we use involves the analysis of conjugacy classes of matrices. The restricted integer partitions which arise are counted by the coefficients of one of Ramanujan's m…
A lattice point counting approach for the study of the number of self-avoiding walks on $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$

The Abelian Sandpile Model, seen as a deterministic lattice automaton, on two-dimensional periodic graphs generates complex regular patterns displaying (fractal) self-similarity. In particular, on a variety of lattices and initial conditions, at all sizes, there appears what we call an exact Sierpinski structure: the volume is filled with periodic patterns, glued together along straight lines, with the topology of a triangular Sierpinski gasket. Various lattices (square, hexagonal, kagome,...), initial conditions, and toppling rules show Sierpinski structures which are apparently unrelated and…
