A proof, based on the theory of oriented linear graphs and their associated matrices, is given for the "inspection" method of calculating the steady-state normalized population densities in a multilevel maser system. The rules for the "inspection" method, previously given on a heuristic basis, are s

The object of this paper is to prove combinatorially several (13 of them) limit formulas relating different families of hypergeometric orthogonal polynomials in Askey's chart classifying them. We first find a combinatorial model for Hahn polynomials which, as pointed out by Foata at the ICM (1983),
Let \(I\) be an ideal in the affine multi-variate polynomial ring \(\mathcal{A}=K\left[x_{1}, \ldots, x_{n}\right]\). Beginning with the work of Brownawell, there has been renewed interest in recent years in using the degrees of polynomials which generate \(I\) to bound the degree \(D\) such that:
The Fintushel Stern formula asserts that the Casson invariant of a Brieskorn homology sphere 7( p, q, r) equals 1Γ8 the signature of its Milnor fiber. We give a geometric proof of this formula, as opposite to computational methods used in the original proof. The formula is also refined to relate equ
A new proof of Good's generalization to several varia'Bles of the Lagrange inversion formula is given, which is mainly based on methods used in Roia's theory of polynomial sequences of binomial type.
