The Tutte polynomial is a well-studied invariant of graphs and matroids. We first extend the Tutte polynomial from graphs to hypergraphs, and more generally from matroids to polymatroids, as a two-variable polynomial. Our definition is…
Leclerc and Zelevinsky described quasicommuting families of quantum minors in terms of a certain combinatorial condition, called weak separation. They conjectured that all maximal by inclusion weakly separated collections of minors have the…
We disprove Holtz and Ron's conjecture that the power ideal C_{A,-2} of a hyperplane arrangement A (also called the "internal zonotopal space") is generated by A-monomials. We also show that, in contrast with the case k \geq -2, the Hilbert…
