https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frobenius%20formula | In mathematics, specifically in representation theory, the Frobenius formula, introduced by G. Frobenius, computes the characters of irreducible representations of the symmetric group Sn. Among the other applications, the formula can be used to derive the hook length formula.
Statement
Let be the character of an irreducible representation of the symmetric group corresponding to a partition of n: and . For each partition of n, let denote the conjugacy class in corresponding to it (cf. the example below), and let denote the number of times j appears in (so ). Then the Frobenius formula states that the constant value of on
is the coefficient of the monomial in the homogeneous polynomial in variables
where is the -th power sum.
Example: Take . Let and hence , , . If (), which corresponds to the class of the identity element, then is the coefficient of in
which is 2. Similarly, if (the class of a 3-cycle times an 1-cycle) and , then , given by
is −1.
For the identity representation, and . The character will be equal to the coefficient of in ,
which is 1 for any as expected.
Analogues

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marjorie%20Hahn | Marjorie "Molly" Greene Hahn (born December 30, 1948) is an American mathematician and tennis player. In mathematics and mathematical statistics she is known for her research in probability theory, including work on central limit theorems, stochastic processes, and stochastic differential equations. She is a professor emeritus of mathematics at Tufts University.
Education
Molly Greene did her undergraduate studies at Stanford University, graduating in 1971. She went on to graduate study at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and married Peter Florin Hahn in 1973. Like Greene, Peter Hahn had graduated with great distinction from Stanford in 1971; he was a graduate student in mathematics at Harvard University, and went on to a career in radiology at Harvard.
Marjorie Hahn completed her Ph.D. in 1975. Her dissertation, supervised by Richard M. Dudley, was Central Limit Theorems for D[0,1]-Valued Random Variables.
Academic career
After postdoctoral study at the University of California, Berkeley, Hahn became a faculty member at Tufts University in 1977. While active at Tufts, she supervised the dissertations of 16 doctoral students, more than anyone else in the department; her students included legal statistician Weiwen Miao. She retired as professor emeritus in 2016.
In 1985, Hahn was elected as a Fellow of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics.
Tennis
Hahn is also a tennis player. She played on the Stanford team from 1967 to 1971, and passed up a chance to play tennis professionally in favor of her work in mathematics. In 2006 her name was added to the United States Tennis Association New England Hall of Fame.
In 2008 she represented the U.S. in an international seniors competition, the Alice Marble Cup, where she helped her team win a silver medal. In 2017 she was part of a U.S. team that won the Kitty Godfrey Cup for women 65 or over at the International Tennis Federation World Super-Senior team championships.
Comparing mathematics with tennis, Hahn has said "In mathematics, you try to prove things step by step; you attempt to set up a logical method. I approach tennis by using this plan and then adjust on the fly."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mavis%20B.%20Carroll | Mavis Bowler Carroll (October 12, 1917 – March 7, 2009) was an American statistician who pioneered the industrial use of statistics in her work at General Foods.
Carroll finished high school at age 16 and attended the New Jersey College for Women on a scholarship. She played on the school basketball team, and earned a bachelor's degree in mathematics there in 1938. She worked as a code breaker during World War II and at the Squibb Institute for Medical Research in New Brunswick, New Jersey in the early 1950s.
Later, she worked at the General Foods Research Center, where she became Section Head in 1958 and, by the 1960s, the head of their division of mathematical and statistical services. Her work at General Foods included the design and analysis of taste tests, with each variation of a food product typically being tested by a panel of 50 tasters (evenly split by gender) who rated the foods on a scale of +3 to −3. In order to keep the total number of tasters manageable, a careful design of experiments was needed to control the number of different food variations to be tested.
Carroll was secretary of the American Society for Testing and Materials for 1960 to 1962.
In 1971, Carroll was elected as a Fellow of the American Statistical Association.
Carroll died of pneumonia on March 7, 2009, in Wilmington, North Carolina.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topological%20geometry | Topological geometry deals with incidence structures consisting of a point set and a family of subsets of called lines or circles etc. such that both and carry a topology and all geometric operations like joining points by a line or intersecting lines are continuous. As in the case of topological groups, many deeper results require the point space to be (locally) compact and connected. This generalizes the observation that the line joining two distinct points in the Euclidean plane depends continuously on the pair of points and the intersection point of two lines is a continuous function of these lines.
Linear geometries
Linear geometries are incidence structures in which any two distinct points and are joined by a unique line . Such geometries are called topological if depends continuously on the pair with respect to given topologies on the point set and the line set. The dual of a linear geometry is obtained by interchanging the roles of points and lines. A survey of linear topological geometries is given in Chapter 23 of the Handbook of incidence geometry. The most extensively investigated topological linear geometries are those which are also dual topological linear geometries. Such geometries are known as topological projective planes.
History
A systematic study of these planes began in 1954 with a paper by Skornyakov. Earlier, the topological properties of the real plane had been introduced via ordering relations on the affine lines, see, e.g., Hilbert, Coxeter, and O. Wyler. The completeness of the ordering is equivalent to local compactness and implies that the affine lines are homeomorphic to and that the point space is connected. Note that the rational numbers do not suffice to describe our intuitive notions of plane geometry and that some extension of the rational field is necessary. In fact, the equation for a circle has no rational solution.
Topological projective planes
The approach to the topological properties of projective planes via ordering relations is not possible, however, for the planes coordinatized by the complex numbers, the quaternions or the octonion algebra. The point spaces as well as the line spaces of these classical planes (over the real numbers, the complex numbers, the quaternions, and the octonions) are compact manifolds of dimension .
Topological dimension
The notion of the dimension of a topological space plays a prominent rôle in the study of topological, in particular of compact connected planes. For a normal space , the dimension can be characterized as follows:
If denotes the -sphere, then if, and only if, for every closed subspace each continuous map has a continuous extension .
For details and other definitions of a dimension see and the references given there, in particular Engelking or Fedorchuk.
2-dimensional planes
The lines of a compact topological plane with a 2-dimensional point space form a family of curves homeomorphic to a circle, and this fact characterizes these plan |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A.%20Harry%20Wheeler | Albert Harry Wheeler (18 January 1873, Leominster, Massachusetts – 1950) was an American mathematician, inventor, and mathematics teacher, known for physical construction (usually in paper) of polyhedral models and teaching this art to students.
Education and career
A. Harry Wheeler received in 1894 his Bachelor of Science degree from Worcester Polytechnic Institute. He taught high school in Worcester, Massachusetts from 1894 to 1896 and then was a graduate student in mathematics from 1896 to 1899 at Clark University, but left without a degree. He taught high school mathematics in Worcester from 1899 to 1920. His textbooks are First Course in Algebra (1907) and Examples in Algebra (1914).
At age 47, returned in 1920 to graduate study in mathematics at Clark University, receiving a master's degree in 1921. Wheeler was an Invited Speaker of the ICM in 1924 at Toronto. In 1924 he began part-time teaching (in addition to his high school teaching) as an adjunct instructor of geometry, first at Brown University and then at Wellesley College; however, his college-level adjunct teaching ended by the early 1930s.
Wheeler and H. S. M. Coxeter planned to be coauthors (with two other mathematicians) of a short book, which was eventually named The Fifty-Nine Icosahedra and became a minor classic of mathematical literature. However, in 1938 Wheeler objected to Coxeter's expository style so that Coxeter replaced Wheeler's name on the book's title page by another author, although Wheeler is briefly mentioned in the text. Extending work of Max Brückner, Wheeler actually constructed previously unknown polyhedra. In particular, he produced new stellations of the icosahedron. This achievement impressed Coxeter, who noted Wheeler's achievement in the text.
Wheeler continued teaching high school mathematics in Worcester until his retirement. His models continued to attract attention. In 1950 he received an invitation to exhibit part of his model collection at the 1950 ICM in Cambridge, Massachusetts from 30 August to September 6. However, serious illness prevented him from attending the conference, and he died in December 1950.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hecke%20algebra | In mathematics, the Hecke algebra is the algebra generated by Hecke operators.
Properties
The algebra is a commutative ring.
In the classical elliptic modular form theory, the Hecke operators Tn with n coprime to the level acting on the space of cusp forms of a given weight are self-adjoint with respect to the Petersson inner product. Therefore, the spectral theorem implies that there is a basis of modular forms that are eigenfunctions for these Hecke operators. Each of these basic forms possesses an Euler product. More precisely, its Mellin transform is the Dirichlet series that has Euler products with the local factor for each prime p is the reciprocal of the Hecke polynomial, a quadratic polynomial in p−s. In the case treated by Mordell, the space of cusp forms of weight 12 with respect to the full modular group is one-dimensional. It follows that the Ramanujan form has an Euler product and establishes the multiplicativity of τ(n).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hecke%20algebra%20of%20a%20finite%20group | The Hecke algebra of a finite group is the algebra spanned by the double cosets HgH of a subgroup H of a finite group G. It is a special case of a Hecke algebra of a locally compact group.
Definition
Let F be a field of characteristic zero, G a finite group and H a subgroup of G. Let denote the
group algebra of G: the space of F-valued functions on G with the multiplication given by convolution. We write for the space of F-valued functions on . An (F-valued) function on G/H determines and is determined by a function on G that is invariant under the right action of H. That is, there is the natural identification:
Similarly, there is the identification
given by sending a G-linear map f to the value of f evaluated at the characteristic function of H. For each double coset , let denote the characteristic function of it. Then those 's form a basis of R.
Application in representation theory
Let be any finite-dimensional complex representation of a finite group G, the Hecke algebra is the algebra of G-equivariant endomorphisms of V. For each irreducible representation of G, the action of H on V preserves – the isotypic component of – and commutes with as a G action.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STEM%20School%20Highlands%20Ranch | STEM School Highlands Ranch, formerly known as STEM School and Academy, is a public charter school with a curriculum focused on Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), located in Highlands Ranch, Colorado. The school building is located in an office park next to Central Park, a retail center. The school serves as a K–12 for over 1,700 students from across the Denver Metro Area.
History
The school originally opened as STEM School and Academy to 480 students, grades 6–9, o August 15, 2011. It was led by principal David Floodeen. In 2012, the board of directors hired Dr. Penny Eucker as executive director. A grade was added every year until they had grades 6-12 in 2014. That year, STEM finished its renovations and turned its gym into a two-story high school, containing a weight room, art room with kiln, and a chemistry lab. In the years since opening, the school moved from being ranked one of the lowest-performing in Colorado to number 10th in the state (SAT Scores). And ranked 9th in the country by US News, and World Report.
STEM's first graduating class consisted of 1 student in 2015. The board of directors wanted to expand, which resulted in the leasing and remodeling of the conjoining building and adding the first 5th grade class in fall of 2015. Of the original 113 5th graders, only 25 remained at STEM for the rest of their elementary, middle, and high school educations and graduated as the class of 2023, these students were known as the "Original 5th graders"
Grades K-4 were added in fall of 2016, officially making the school a K-12. Becoming a part of KOSON Schools in 2017, the school re branded and changed its name to STEM School Highlands Ranch, adopted a new tagline, new mission statement, and new logo.
In 2018, anti-suicide programs were implemented to help lower chances of suicide and school shootings.
In the fall of 2019, STEM School Highlands Ranch purchased the building that housed grades K–5.
In the fall of 2020, STEM purchased the neighboring building to house its P-TECH program (Grades 13 and 14) and the Business Offices for STEM School Highlands Ranch as well as the Charter Network Main Offices of KOSON Network of Schools.
Campus and Facilities
The main school buildings have three engineering labs, four computer labs, a chemistry lab, a weight room, two gyms (Secondary and Elementary), and three parking lots which encase the building on all but the north sides of the school facility. The eastern side of the school has a playground for grades K-5. The north side of the building has a recreation area with picnic tables where high school students can eat lunch. South of the elementary building there is a small building for the P-TECH college course, there are 3 classrooms primarily for P-TECH courses, however some high school level classes are held in this building.
Additions and remolding
In the fall of 2021, the school finalized a master plan which includes four new classrooms, a secondary gym, middle sch |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial%20functor | In algebra, a polynomial functor is an endofunctor on the category of finite-dimensional vector spaces that depends polynomially on vector spaces. For example, the symmetric powers and the exterior powers are polynomial functors from to ; these two are also Schur functors.
The notion appears in representation theory as well as category theory (the calculus of functors). In particular, the category of homogeneous polynomial functors of degree n is equivalent to the category of finite-dimensional representations of the symmetric group over a field of characteristic zero.
Definition
Let k be a field of characteristic zero and the category of finite-dimensional k-vector spaces and k-linear maps. Then an endofunctor is a polynomial functor if the following equivalent conditions hold:
For every pair of vector spaces X, Y in , the map is a polynomial mapping (i.e., a vector-valued polynomial in linear forms).
Given linear maps in , the function defined on is a polynomial function with coefficients in .
A polynomial functor is said to be homogeneous of degree n if for any linear maps in with common domain and codomain, the vector-valued polynomial is homogeneous of degree n.
Variants
If “finite vector spaces” is replaced by “finite sets”, one gets the notion of combinatorial species (to be precise, those of polynomial nature).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence%20Schulman | Lawrence S. Schulman (born 1941) is an American-Israeli physicist known for his work on path integrals, quantum measurement theory and statistical mechanics. He introduced topology into path integrals on multiply connected spaces and has contributed to diverse areas from galactic morphology to the arrow of time.
Biography
He was born to Anna and Louis Schulman in Newark, New Jersey, USA. He first went to the local public school, but switched to more Jewish oriented institutions, graduating from Yeshiva University in 1963. While still in college he married Claire Frangles Sherman. From Yeshiva he went to Princeton where he received the Ph.D. in physics for his thesis (under Arthur Wightman) A path integral for spin.
After completing his thesis he took a position as Assistant Professor at Indiana University (Bloomington), but in 1970 went to the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa on a NATO postdoctoral fellowship.
At the Technion he accepted a position as Associate Professor, but only resigned from Indiana several years later as Professor. In 1985 he returned to the United States as Chair of the Physics Department of Clarkson University and eventually (1988) also resigned from the Technion (as full Professor). In 1991 he left the chair-ship and since then has stayed on at Clarkson as professor of physics.
In 2013 he spent part of a sabbatical at Georgia Institute of Technology and has since been adjunct professor at that institution.
Visiting positions, honors, etc.: of particular mention is his relation to the Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems (Dresden), where he has been a frequent visitor since being awarded the Gutzwiller fellowship in 2005.
He is the father of Leonard Schulman, Computer Science professor at the California Institute of Technology, Linda Parmet, Hebrew and Creative Design teacher at The Weber School, and David Schulman, an intellectual property attorney at the law firm of Greenberg Traurig, LLP.
Scientific activities
The foray into topology led to topological views of other phenomena in physics, for example an alternative phrasing of the Aharonov-Bohm effect.
Together with Phil Seiden (of IBM) he began the first studies of randomized cellular automata, an area that morphed into a theory of star formation in galaxies, once they were joined by Humberto Gerola (an astrophysicist at IBM) who realized that star formation regions - as well as epidemic models- could be viewed as random cellular automata. Besides providing an explanation for spiral arms, this work ultimately solved the mystery of why dwarf galaxies can vary in their luminosity by large factors.
In 1981 Schulman published Techniques and Applications of Path Integration, from which many physicists learned about Feynman's path integral and its many applications. The book went on to become a Wiley classic and in 2005 came out in a Dover edition (with a supplement).
Once Schulman proved that (contrary to published work) there |

Eiesland immigrated to the US in 1888 after completing his secondary education in Christiansand. He received his bachelor's degree from the University of South Dakota in 1891. He was a mathematics professor from 1895 to 1903 at Thiel College in Pennsylvania. On a leave of absence, he studied mathematics as a Johns Hopkins Scholar (1897–1898) at Johns Hopkins University, where he received his Ph.D. in 1898. From 1903 to 1907 he was a mathematics instructor at the United States Naval Academy. In 1907 he became a professor of mathematics at West Virginia University and the chair of the mathematics department from 1907 to 1938, when he retired as professor emeritus.
Eiesland was elected a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Sciences in 1903. He was an Invited Speaker of the ICM in 1924 in Toronto.
He married in 1904.
At West Virginia University, Eiesland Hall is named in his honor, and in 1994 his heirs established the John Arndt Eiesland Visiting Professorship of Mathematics.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judy%20Zeh | Judith E. (Judy) Zeh is an American statistician. She retired from the University of Washington, where she spent her entire career, and is a research professor emerita of statistics at Washington. She is known for her research on bowhead whale populations.
Research
Zeh's research concerns population dynamics and population estimation. She has applied these methods more specifically, in association with the International Whaling Commission, to bowhead whale populations. In this application, she and her collaborator Adrian Raftery became pioneers in the use of Bayesian statistics for population estimation.
In 1999, she was elected for a three year term as chair of the Scientific Committee of the International Whaling Commission. She became the first woman in over 50 years in that position.
Education and career
Zeh was educated entirely at the University of Washington, where she also spent her entire academic career. She graduated with a bachelor's degree in philosophy in 1962, and the next year began working as a computer programmer in Washington's Applied Physics Laboratory, where she remained until 1974.
While employed there, she earned a second bachelor's degree in 1965 in mathematics and numerical analysis, and a master's degree in 1969 in mathematical statistics. From 1975 to 1979, she was a doctoral student in biomathematics; after completing her Ph.D. in 1979, she became a lecturer in electrical engineering, while also working off-campus as a senior statistical analyst at Mathematical Sciences Northwest.
She worked as a postdoctoral researcher, research associate, and lecturer in statistics from 1982 to 1991, when she became a research associate professor in the statistics department, with a joint appointment in the Department of Quantitative Ecology and Resource Management. From 1999 to 2004 she also held an adjunct position on Laboratory Medicine at the University of Washington.
Recognition
In 1998, Zeh was elected as a Fellow of the American Statistical Association.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway%E2%80%93Maxwell%E2%80%93binomial%20distribution | In probability theory and statistics, the Conway–Maxwell–binomial (CMB) distribution is a three parameter discrete probability distribution that generalises the binomial distribution in an analogous manner to the way that the Conway–Maxwell–Poisson distribution generalises the Poisson distribution. The CMB distribution can be used to model both positive and negative association among the Bernoulli summands,.
The distribution was introduced by Shumeli et al. (2005), and the name Conway–Maxwell–binomial distribution was introduced independently by Kadane (2016) and Daly and Gaunt (2016).
Probability mass function
The Conway–Maxwell–binomial (CMB) distribution has probability mass function
where , and . The normalizing constant is defined by
If a random variable has the above mass function, then we write .
The case is the usual binomial distribution .
Relation to Conway–Maxwell–Poisson distribution
The following relationship between Conway–Maxwell–Poisson (CMP) and CMB random variables generalises a well-known result concerning Poisson and binomial random variables. If and are independent, then .
Sum of possibly associated Bernoulli random variables
The random variable may be written as a sum of exchangeable Bernoulli random variables satisfying
where . Note that in general, unless .
Generating functions
Let
Then, the probability generating function, moment generating function and characteristic function are given, respectively, by:
Moments
For general , there do not exist closed form expressions for the moments of the CMB distribution. The following neat formula is available, however. Let denote the falling factorial. Let , where . Then
for .
Mode
Let and define
Then the mode of is if is not an integer. Otherwise, the modes of are and .
Stein characterisation
Let , and suppose that is such that and . Then
Approximation by the Conway–Maxwell–Poisson distribution
Fix and and let Then converges in distribution to the distribution as . This result generalises the classical Poisson approximation of the binomial distribution.
Conway–Maxwell–Poisson binomial distribution
Let be Bernoulli random variables with joint distribution given by
where and the normalizing constant is given by
where
Let . Then has mass function
for . This distribution generalises the Poisson binomial distribution in a way analogous to the CMP and CMB generalisations of the Poisson and binomial distributions. Such a random variable is therefore said to follow the Conway–Maxwell–Poisson binomial (CMPB) distribution. This should not be confused with the rather unfortunate terminology Conway–Maxwell–Poisson–binomial that was used by for the CMB distribution.
The case is the usual Poisson binomial distribution and the case is the distribution.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laura%20Ahtime | Laura Marie-Thérèse Ahtime is the chief executive of the Seychelles National Bureau of Statistics.
Ahtime joined the bureau before earning any university-level degree, and after working there for approximately three years went to the University of Botswana, where she read statistics for four years. Later, she earned a master's degree in Quantitative Development Economics at the University of Warwick, under the support of a Chevening Scholarship. Returning to the Seychelles National Bureau of Statistics again after her studies, she was eventually promoted to director general, and then to chief executive in 2010. She became the first female chief executive of the bureau, even though as a whole the bureau is "very heavily female-dominated".
Under Ahtime's leadership Seychelles, which in past years did not see statistics as important, has made significantly greater use of the work of the bureau, by government bodies and newspapers, and in international relations. Ahtime pushed Seychelles to become part of the General Data Dissemination System of the International Monetary Fund, and to subscribe to the Special Data Dissemination Standard of the International Monetary Fund.
She also published the first population and census atlas of Seychelles, and monitors the numbers of tourists visiting Seychelles.
Ahtime is an elected member of the International Statistical Institute.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/June%20Morita | June Gloria Morita is an American statistician and statistics educator. She is a principal lecturer emerita in statistics at the University of Washington, and is known for her innovative lessons in statistics based on examples from real life. For instance, one of her classes tested whether helium-filled footballs travel farther than air-filled footballs, with the assistance of her son, Washington Huskies football place-kicker Eric Guttorp. Another lesson, for local elementary school students, tested the mark and recapture method by catching fish at the school's fish pond.
Morita did her undergraduate and graduate education at the University of California, Berkeley. She graduated in 1976 with a double major in mathematics and anthropology, earned a master's degree in 1978, and completed her Ph.D. in 1984. Her dissertation, supervised by Kjell Doksum, was Nonparametric Methods for Matched Observations from Life Distributions.
Morita is married to Swedish statistician Peter Guttorp, who was also educated at Berkeley, and the two statisticians were the first new hires when the University of Washington first formed its statistics department in 1980.
Morita won Washington's Distinguished Teaching Award in 1999.
In 2006, five years after her husband, she was elected as a Fellow of the American Statistical Association.
She is also an elected member of the International Statistical Institute.
In 2009, the American Statistical Association gave Morita their Founders Award "for outstanding leadership; for energetic service to the association as chapter president, regional vice chair, and chair of the Council of Chapters and a member of the Council of Sections Governing Board, the Board of Directors, and numerous committees; for initiating, promoting, and sustaining effective programs to enhance quantitative and statistical literacy in schools nationally and internationally, including Making Sense of Statistical Studies and programs to prepare undergraduates as mathematics/statistics tutors in middle schools; and for setting a standard of fun and excitement to the Council of Chapters activities at association meetings."

In 1906 he obtained his habilitation qualification from Zürich's Federal Polytechnic School with habilitation dissertation Sur quelques cas d'irréductibilité des polynômes à coefficients rationnels. From 1906 to 1913 Dumas taught higher mathematics at the Federal Polytechnic School. At the University of Lausanne's Engineering School, he became in 1913 a professor extraordinarius and in 1916 a professor ordinarius, retiring in 1942. At Lausanne he had an important influence on his student Georges de Rham, who became Dumas's assistant before graduating in 1925.
Dumas served a two-year term as president of the Swiss Mathematical Society in 1922–1923. He was an Invited Speaker of the International Congress of Mathematicians in 1928 at Bologna.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autocorrelation%20%28words%29 | In combinatorics, a branch of mathematics, the autocorrelation of a word is the set of periods of this word. More precisely, it is a sequence of values which indicate how much the end of a word looks likes the beginning of a word. This value can be used to compute, for example, the average value of the first occurrence of this word in a random string.
Definition
In this article, A is an alphabet, and a word on A of length n. The autocorrelation of can be defined as the correlation of with itself. However, we redefine this notion below.
Autocorrelation vector
The autocorrelation vector of is , with being 1 if the prefix of length equals the suffix of length , and with being 0 otherwise. That is indicates whether .
For example, the autocorrelation vector of is since, clearly, for being 0, 1 or 2, the prefix of length is equal to the suffix of length . The autocorrelation vector of is since no strict prefix is equal to a strict suffix. Finally, the autocorrelation vector of is 100011, as shown in the following table:
Note that is always equal to 1, since the prefix and the suffix of length are both equal to the word . Similarly, is 1 if and only if the first and the last letters are the same.
Autocorrelation polynomial
The autocorrelation polynomial of is defined as . It is a polynomial of degree at most .
For example, the autocorrelation polynomial of is and the autocorrelation polynomial of is . Finally, the autocorrelation polynomial of is .
Property
We now indicate some properties which can be computed using the autocorrelation polynomial.
First occurrence of a word in a random string
Suppose that you choose an infinite sequence of letters of , randomly, each letter with probability , where is the number of letters of . Let us call the expectation of the first occurrence of ? in ? . Then equals . That is, each subword of which is both a prefix and a suffix causes the average value of the first occurrence of to occur letters later. Here is the length of v.
For example, over the binary alphabet , the first occurrence of is at position while the average first occurrence of is at position . Intuitively, the fact that the first occurrence of is later than the first occurrence of can be explained in two ways:
We can consider, for each position , what are the requirement for 's first occurrence to be at .
The first occurrence of can be at position 1 in only one way in both case. If starts with . This has probability for both considered values of .
The first occurrence of is at position 2 if the prefix of of length 3 is or is . However, the first occurrence of is at position 2 if and only if the prefix of of length 3 is . (Note that the first occurrence of in is at position 1.).
In general, the number of prefixes of length such that the first occurrence of is at position is smaller for than for . This explain why, on average, the first arrive later than the first .

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oberwolfach%20problem | The Oberwolfach problem is an unsolved problem in mathematics that may be formulated either as a problem of scheduling seating assignments for diners,
or more abstractly as a problem in graph theory, on the edge cycle covers of complete graphs. It is named after the Oberwolfach Research Institute for Mathematics, where the problem was posed in 1967 by Gerhard Ringel. It is known to be true for all sufficiently-large complete graphs.
Formulation
In conferences held at Oberwolfach, it is the custom for the participants to dine together in a room with circular tables, not all the same size, and with assigned seating that rearranges the participants from meal to meal. The Oberwolfach problem asks how to make a seating chart for a given set of tables so that all tables are full at each meal and all pairs of conference participants are seated next to each other exactly once. An instance of the problem can be denoted as where are the given table sizes. Alternatively, when some table sizes are repeated, they may be denoted using exponential notation; for instance, describes an instance with three tables of size five.
Formulated as a problem in graph theory, the pairs of people sitting next to each other at a single meal can be represented as a disjoint union of cycle graphs of the specified lengths, with one cycle for each of the dining tables. This union of cycles is a 2-regular graph, and every 2-regular graph has this form. If is this 2-regular graph and has vertices, the question is whether the complete graph of order can be represented as an edge-disjoint union of copies of .
In order for a solution to exist, the total number of conference participants (or equivalently, the total capacity of the tables, or the total number of vertices of the given cycle graphs) must be an odd number. For, at each meal, each participant sits next to two neighbors, so the total number of neighbors of each participant must be even, and this is only possible when the total number of participants is odd. The problem has, however, also been extended to even values of by asking, for those , whether all of the edges of the complete graph except for a perfect matching can be covered by copies of the given 2-regular graph. Like the ménage problem (a different mathematical problem involving seating arrangements of diners and tables), this variant of the problem can be formulated by supposing that the diners are arranged into married couples, and that the seating arrangements should place each diner next to each other diner except their own spouse exactly once.
Known results
The only instances of the Oberwolfach problem that are known not to be solvable are , , , and . It is widely believed that all other instances have a solution.
This conjecture is supported by recent non-constructive and asymptotic solutions for large complete graphs of order greater than a lower bound that is however unquantified.
Cases for which a constructive solution is known include:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V%C3%A1clav%20Je%C5%99%C3%A1bek | Václav Jeřábek (1845–1931) was a Czech mathematician, specialized in constructive geometry.
Life and work
Jeřábek studied at the lower school of Pardubice and at the higher school of Písek, then he was to Vienna and studied at Imperial and Royal Polytechnic Institute where he graduated. Although he participated in several leading intellectual circles of Vienna, he remained a Czech with a clear view of patriotism. He began his teaching at the Realschule of Litomyšl (1870), being transferred two years after to the Realschule of Telč. In 1881, he was appointed professor of the Czech Realschule in Brno, and became its director in 1901. He retired in 1907, and suffering of a cataract, he died almost completely blind in 1931.
Jeřábek was one of the men who kept the Czech geometry at the scientific level. He published scientific articles in Czech, German and French, and longer lectures. He is well remembered by the Jerabek hyperbola, the locus of the isogonal conjugate of a point that traverses the Euler line of a triangle.
He was honorary member of the Union of Czech mathematicians and member of the scientific societies of Moravia and Bohemia.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy%20of%20the%20Egyptian%20Armed%20Forces | Following the Arab Spring, the military tightened its control of the Egyptian economy. Details of the military's role in the economy are unclear given that statistics regarding the economy are absent or known to be wildly inaccurate.
The Involvement of the Egyptian Armed Forces in economic activity generates substantial revenue for the military. Many infrastructure projects, as well as the provision of goods or services, are either run directly by the military or contracts are provided to military affiliated companies. This ranges from construction to provision of food. The impacts of such a tightly controlled and regulated economy are widespread and impact currency value, international investment and the standard of living.
As a result of the competitive advantage experienced by the military over private enterprise, non-military affiliated companies experience an economic handicap. As military affiliated corporations are not required to pay taxes, the VAT and import taxes experienced by civilian organisations further increases the difficulty of operating commercially independent of the Armed Forces.
Construction and infrastructure
Since the Arab Spring in 2011 hundreds of large infrastructure projects have been channelled through the Egyptian Armed Forces Engineering Authority, providing large revenues to the military. While official documentation of the profits from these projects are generally not made public, many billions of Egyptian pounds in revenue have been accumulated. Concerns about the cost-benefit calculations for these major construction projects have raised questions over the military's intervention in the economy. It has been argued that the resources allocated to these projects can be used more efficiently.
Suez Canal expansion project
The Suez Canal expansion was Egypt's largest infrastructure project in recent years. It involved creating a new shipping lane in the canal and deepening the existing channel to enable vessels to pass in both directions simultaneously. The anticipated financial outcomes of this project have not yet been released.
President Sisi has invested more than $8 bn USD in an expansion of the Suez Canal in an attempt to increase the Canal's revenue by decreasing waiting times for vessels passing through it. The anticipated level of revenue has not been met. One of the main reasons for this sluggish growth in revenues can be traced to the fact that global trade has still not recovered from the financial crisis of 2007–2008. Lieutenant General Mohab Mamish, Chairman of the Suez Canal Authority, said that the canal's annual revenue would surpass $13 billion by 2023. However, revenue has barely increased since the opening of the second lane and in some periods it decreased. Critics suggest that Sisi's regime should have foreseen this, given that the Canal was not working at full capacity before the expansion. Government officials and President Sisi assert that revenue has increased since the expansion, |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silvio%20Canevazzi | Silvio Canevazzi (16 March 1852, Saliceta San Giuliano, suburb of Modena – 13 March 1918, Bologna) was an Italian civil engineer and applied mathematician.
Canevazzi studied at the mathematics faculty of the University of Modena from 1868 to 1870 and then at the Polytechnic University of Milan, where he graduated in 1873 with a degree in civil engineering. In 1873 he was appointed an assistant to the professor in the chair of applied mechanics in civil engineering at the Sapienza University of Rome, and then an assistant to the chair of construction of bridges and roads. In 1875 he won a competition in engineering sponsored by the royal corps of mining engineers and was sent by the Italian ministry of agriculture to study at the school of mines in Liège, where he graduated in 1877. In 1877, Cesare Razzaboni, who was organizing a school of engineering (Scuola di applicazione per ingegneri) in Bologna, invited Canevazzi to take charge of applied mechanics in civil engineering. In that academic post at Bologna, Canevazzi in 1880 was appointed to the chair of bridge construction and civil engineering hydraulics and also to the chair of applied mechanics in civil engineering. He held the two academic chairs until his death. In 1889 he was appointed the director of the academic department to which his two academic chairs were subordinated. In 1911 he was appointed director of the school of engineering in Bologna.
Canevazzi's research dealt with molecular equilibria in static mechanics, applications of the Menabrea theorem in elasticity, and studies of reinforced concrete. He developed a new method of calculating static stresses for buildings in earthquake zones. His method influenced building codes for earthquake resistance. Canevazzi, in collaboration with Cesare Ghillini, did important research on mechanical stresses on the human skeleton, particularly the femur. Their research was useful in the design of prosthetic limbs.
He was an Invited Speaker of the ICM in 1908 in Rome. Pier Luigi Nervi was his student.
