Uncrossing Partitions

The cd-indices of intervals in the uncrossing partial order on matchings

We study flag enumeration in intervals in the uncrossing partial order on matchings. We produce a recursion for the cd-indices of intervals in the uncrossing poset Pn. We explicitly describe the matchings by constructing an order-reversing bijection. We obtain a recursion for the ab-indices of intervals in the poset P̂n, the poset Pn with a unique minimum 0̂ adjoined.

Polymer Uncrossing and Knotting in Protein Folding, and Their Role in Minimal Folding Pathways

We introduce a method for calculating the extent to which chain non-crossing is important in the most efficient, optimal trajectories or pathways for a protein to fold. This involves recording all unphysical crossing events of a ghost chain, and calculating the minimal uncrossing cost that would have been required to avoid such events. A depth-first tree search algorithm is applied to find mini...

Tsallis Entropy and Conditional Tsallis Entropy of Fuzzy Partitions

The purpose of this study is to define the concepts of Tsallis entropy and conditional Tsallis entropy of fuzzy partitions and to obtain some results concerning this kind entropy. We show that the Tsallis entropy of fuzzy partitions has the subadditivity and concavity properties. We study this information measure under the refinement and zero mode subset relations. We check the chain rules for ...

Stirling number of the fourth kind and lucky partitions of a finite set

The concept of Lucky k-polynomials and in particular Lucky χ-polynomials was recently introduced. This paper introduces Stirling number of the fourth kind and Lucky partitions of a finite set in order to determine either the Lucky k- or Lucky χ-polynomial of a graph. The integer partitions influence Stirling partitions of the second kind.
