Celebrating Loday's associahedron

V Pilaud, F Santos, GM Ziegler - Archiv der Mathematik, 2023 - Springer
Abstract We survey Jean-Louis Loday's vertex description of the associahedron, and its far
reaching influence in combinatorics, discrete geometry, and algebra. We present in …

Poset edge densities, nearly reduced words, and barely set-valued tableaux

V Reiner, BE Tenner, A Yong - Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series A, 2018 - Elsevier
In certain finite posets, the expected down-degree of their elements is the same whether
computed with respect to either the uniform distribution or the distribution weighting an …

Canonical bases for permutohedral plates

N Early - arxiv preprint arxiv:1712.08520, 2017 - arxiv.org
We study three finite-dimensional quotient vector spaces constructed from the linear span of
the set of characteristic functions of permutohedral cones by imposing two kinds of …

Commutative algebra of statistical ranking

B Sturmfels, V Welker - Journal of Algebra, 2012 - Elsevier
A model for statistical ranking is a family of probability distributions whose states are
orderings of a fixed finite set of items. We represent the orderings as maximal chains in a …

Toric matrix Schubert varieties and their polytopes

L Escobar, K Mészáros - Proceedings of the American Mathematical …, 2016 - ams.org
Given a matrix Schubert variety $\overline {X_\pi} $, it can be written as $\overline {X_\pi}=
Y_\pi\times\mathbb {C}^ q $(where $ q $ is maximal possible). We characterize when $ Y …

A quantitative study of pure parallel processes

O Bodini, A Genitrini, F Peschanski - arxiv preprint arxiv:1407.1873, 2014 - arxiv.org
In this paper, we study the interleaving--or pure merge--operator that most often
characterizes parallelism in concurrency theory. This operator is a principal cause of the so …

A multivariate hook formula for labelled trees

V Féray, IP Goulden - Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series A, 2013 - Elsevier
Several hook summation formulae for binary trees have appeared recently in the literature.
In this paper we present an analogous formula for unordered increasing trees of size r …

A Toric Analogue for Greene's Rational Function of a Poset

E Catania - arxiv preprint arxiv:2409.04907, 2024 - arxiv.org
Given a finite poset, Greene introduced a rational function obtained by summing certain
rational functions over the linear extensions of the poset. This function has interesting …

Doppelgangers: the Ur-operation and posets of bounded height

T Browning, M Hopkins, Z Kelley - arxiv preprint arxiv:1710.10407, 2017 - arxiv.org
In the early 1970's, Richard Stanley and Kenneth Johnson introduced and laid the
groundwork for studying the order polynomial of partially ordered sets (posets). Decades …
