Counting weighted maximal chains in the circular Bruhat order

Abstract

The totally nonnegative Grassmannian Gr(k,n)0\mathrm{Gr}(k,n)_{\geq0} is the subset of the real Grassmannian Gr(k,n)\mathrm{Gr}(k,n) consisting of points with all nonnegative Pl\"ucker coordinates. The circular Bruhat order is a poset isomorphic to the face poset of A. Postnikov's (2005) positroid cell decomposition of Gr(k,n)0\mathrm{Gr}(k,n)_{\geq0}. We provide a closed formula for the sum of its weighted chains in the spirit of J. Stembridge (2002).
