We describe a novel Yang-Baxter integrable vertex model. From this vertex model we construct a certain class of partition functions that we show are equal to the LLT polynomials of Lascoux, Leclerc, and Thibon. Using the vertex model formalism, we give alternate proofs of many properties of these polynomials, including symmetry and a Cauchy identity.
We study the $\epsilon$-pseudospectra $\sigma_\epsilon(A)$ of square matrices $A \in \mathbb{C}^{N \times N}$. We give a complete characterization of the $\epsilon$-pseudospectrum of any $2 \times 2$ matrix and describe the asymptotic behavior (as $\epsilon \to 0$) of $\sigma_\epsilon(A)$ for any square matrix $A$. We also present explicit upper and lower bounds for the $\epsilon$-pseudospectra of bidiagonal matrices, as well as for finite rank operators.
We consider a game played on an initially empty graph where two players alternate drawing an edge between vertices subject to the condition that no degree can exceed $k$. We show that for $k=3$, either player can avoid a Hamilton cycle, and for $k\geq4$, either player can force the resulting graph to be Hamiltonian.
