November, 2019 5 Title The Auslander-Reiten Quiver of Equipped Posets of Finite Growth Representation Type, some Functorial Descriptions and Its Applications Abstract: The theory of representation of partially ordered sets or posets was introduced in the early 1970's as an effort to give an answer to the second Brauer-Thrall conjecture. Recall that one of the main goals of this theory is to give a complete description of the indecomposable objects of the category of representations of a given poset. Perhaps the most useful tool to obtain such classification are the algorithms of differentiation. For instance, Nazarova and Roiter introduced an algorithm known as the algorithm of differentiation with respect to a maximal point which allowed to Kleiner in 1972 to obtain a classification of posets of finite representation type. Soon afterwards between 1974 and 1977, Zavadskij defined the more general algorithm I with respect to a suitable pair of points, this algorithm was used in 1981 by Nazarova and Zavadskij in order to give a criterion for the classification of posets of finite growth representation type. Actually, several years later, Zavadskij himself described the structure of the Auslander-Reiten quiver of this kind of posets, to do that, it was established that such an algorithm is in fact a categorical equivalence. Since the theory of representation of posets was developed in the 1980's and 1990's for posets with additional structures, for example, for posets with involution or for equipped posets by Bondarenko, Nazarova, Roiter, Zabarilo and Zavadskij among others. It was necessary to define a new class of algorithms to classify posets with these additional structures. In fact, Zavadskij introduced 17 algorithms. Algorithms, I-V (and some additional differentiations) were used by him and Bondarenko to classify posets with involution, whereas algorithms I, VII-XVII were used to classify equipped posets. In particular, algorithms I, VII, VIII and IX were used to classify equipped posets of finite growth representation type without paying attention to the behavior of the morphisms of the corresponding categories. In other words, it was obtained a classification of the objects without proving that the algorithms used to tackle the problems are in fact categorical equivalences, therefore, the main problem of the theory of the algorithms of differentiation consists of giving a detailed description of the behavior of the morphisms under these additive functors, such description allows to give a deep understanding of the Auslander-Reiten quiver of the corresponding categories. On the other hand, in the last few years has been noted a great interest in the application of the theory of representation of algebras in different fields of computer science, for example, in combinatorics, information security and topological data analysis. Ringel and Fahr, for instance, gave a categorification of Fibonacci numbers by using the 3-Kronecker quiver whereas representation of posets and the theory of posets have been used to analyze tactics of war and cyberwar. Besides, the theory of Auslander has been used to analyze big data via the homological persistent theory. In this research, it is proved that the algorithms of differentiation VIII-X induce categorical equivalences between some quotient categories, giving a description of the Auslander-Reiten quiver of some equipped posets by using the evolvent associated to these kind of posets. In this work, ideas arising from the theory of representation of equipped posets are used to give a categorification of Delannoy numbers. Actually, such numbers are interpreted as dimensions of some suitable equipped posets. We also interpret the algorithm of differentiation VII as a steganographic algorithm which allows to generate digital watermarks, such an algorithm can be also used to describe the behavior of some kind of informatics viruses, in fact, it is explained how this algorithm describe the infection-detection process when a computer network is affected for this type of malware. At last but not least, we recall that the theory of representation of equipped posets is a way to deal with the homogeneous biquadratic problem which is an open matrix problem, in this case, with respect to a pair of fields (F; G) with G a quadratic extension of the field F with respect to a polynomial of the form t2 + q, q 2 F . Actually, explicit solutions to this problem were given by Zavadskij who rediscovered in 2007 the Krawtchouk matrices introducing an interesting Θ-transformation as well. In this research, such Krawtchouk matrices are used in order to give explicit solutions to non-linear systems of differential equations of the form X0(t) + AX2(t) = B, where X(t);X0(t);A and B are n × n square matrices. Tools arising from this solution are called in this work the Zavadskij calculus. This research was partially supported by COLCIENCIAS convocatoria doctorados nacionales 727 de 2015.

  • Krawtchouk Matrices from Classical and Quantum Random Walks
    Krawtchouk matrices from classical and quantum random walks Philip Feinsilver and Jerzy Kocik Abstract. Krawtchouk’s polynomials occur classically as orthogonal polyno- mials with respect to the binomial distribution. They may be also expressed in the form of matrices, that emerge as arrays of the values that the polynomials take. The algebraic properties of these matrices provide a very interesting and accessible example in the approach to probability theory known as quantum probability. First it is noted how the Krawtchouk matrices are connected to the classical symmetric Bernoulli random walk. And we show how to derive Krawtchouk matrices in the quantum probability context via tensor powers of the elementary Hadamard matrix. Then connections with the classical situa- tion are shown by calculating expectation values in the quantum case. 1. Introduction Some very basic algebraic rules can be expressed using matrices. Take, for example, (a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2 1 1 1 (2) (a + b)(a − b) = a2 − b2 ⇒ Φ = 2 0 −2 (a − b)2 = a2 − 2ab + b2 1 −1 1 (the expansion coefficients make up the columns of the matrix). In general, we make the definition: Definition 1.1. The N th-order Krawtchouk matrix Φ(N) is an (N +1)×(N +1) matrix, the entries of which are determined by the expansion: N N−j j X i (N) (1.1) (1 + v) (1 − v) = v Φij . i=0 The left-hand-side G(v) = (1 + v)N−j (1 − v)j is thus the generating function for the row entries of the jth column of Φ(N).

Stacey Staples∗ Abstract Kravchuk polynomials arise as orthogonal polynomials with respect to the binomial distribution and have numerous applications in harmonic analysis, statistics, coding theory, and quantum probability. The relation- ship between Kravchuk polynomials and Clifford algebras is multifaceted. In this paper, Kravchuk polynomials are discovered as traces of conjuga- tion operators in Clifford algebras, and appear in Clifford Berezin integrals of Clifford polynomials. Regarding Kravchuk matrices as linear operators on a vector space V , the action induced on the Clifford algebra over V is equivalent to blade conjugation, i.e., reflections across sets of orthogonal hyperplanes.

We call Krawtchouk-Griffiths systems, or KG-systems, systems of multivariate polynomials orthogonal with respect to corresponding multi- nomial distributions. The original Krawtchouk polynomials are orthogonal with respect to a binomial distribution. Our approach is to work directly with matrices comprising the values of the polynomials at points of a discrete grid based on the possible counting values of the underlying multinomial distribu- tion. The starting point for the construction of a KG-system is a generating matrix satisfying the K-condition, orthogonality with respect to the basic probability distribution associated to an individual step of the multinomial process. The variables of the polynomials corresponding to matrices may be interpreted as quantum observables in the real case, or quantum variables in the complex case. The structure of the recurrence relations for the orthog- onal polynomials is presented with multiplication operators as the matrices corresponding to the quantum variables. An interesting feature is that the associated random walks correspond to the Lie algebra of the representation of symmetric tensor powers of matrices.

  • Krawtchouk Polynomials and Krawtchouk Matrices
    Krawtchouk polynomials and Krawtchouk matrices Philip Feinsilver and Jerzy Kocik Department of Mathematics Southern Illinois University Carbondale, IL 62901 Abstract Krawtchouk matrices have as entries values of the Krawtchouk poly- nomials for nonnegative integer arguments. We show how they arise as condensed Sylvester-Hadamard matrices via a binary shuffling function. The underlying symmetric tensor algebra is then presented. To advertise the breadth and depth of the field of Krawtchouk poly- nomials/matrices through connections with various parts of mathematics, some topics that are being developed into a Krawtchouk Encyclopedia are listed in the concluding section. Interested folks are encouraged to visit the website http://chanoir.math.siu.edu/Kravchuk/index.html which is currently in a state of development. 1 What are Krawtchouk matrices Of Sylvester-Hadamard matrices and Krawtchouk matrices, the latter are less familiar, hence we start with them. Definition 1.1 The N th-order Krawtchouk matrix K(N) is an (N +1)×(N +1) matrix, the entries of which are determined by the expansion: N N−j j X i (N) (1 + v) (1 − v) = v Kij (1.1) i=0 Thus, the polynomial G(v) = (1 + v)N−j (1 − v)j is the generating function for the row entries of the jth column of K(N). Expanding gives the explicit values of the matrix entries: (N) X j N − j K = (−1)k . ij k i − k k where matrix indices run from 0 to N. 1 Here are the Krawtchouk matrices of order zero, one, and two: 1 1 1 1 1 K(0) = 1 K(1) = K(2) = 2 0 −2 1 −1 1 −1 1 The reader is invited to see more examples in Table 1 of the Appendix.
