Effective Asymptotics of Combinatorial Systems
Analytic combinatorics studies asymptotic properties of families of combinatorial objects using complex analysis on their generating functions. In their reference book on the subject, Flajolet and Sedgewick describe a general approach that allows one to derive precise asymptotic expansions starting from systems of combinatorial equations. In the situation where the combinatorial system involves only cartesian products and disjoint unions, the generating functions satisfy polynomial systems with…

Higher-order homogenization for equations of linearized elasticity using the operator-asymptotic approach
The operator-asymptotic approach was introduced by Lim-Žubrinić in [Asymptotic Analysis. 141(4), p. 211-256 (2025)] for the homogenization of an $\varepsilon\mathbb{Z}^d$-periodic composite media. In this article, we consider the setting of three-dimensional linearized elasticity, and extend the approach to obtain higher-order convergence rates. In particular, we consider the so-called ``Bloch approximation'' for vector-valued functions with compact Fourier support, and demonstrate that under…

Asymptotic size of the Karp-Sipser Core in Configuration Model
We study the asymptotic size of the Karp-Sipser core in the configuration model with arbitrary degree distributions. The Karp-Sipser core is the induced subgraph obtained by iteratively removing all leaves and their neighbors through the leaf-removal process, and finally discarding any isolated vertices \cite{BCC}. Our main result establishes the convergence of the Karp-Sipser core size to an explicit fixed-point equation under general degree assumptions.The approach is based on analyzing the c…
