Given a permutation $\tau$ defined on a set of combinatorial objects $S$, together with some statistic $f:S\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$, we say that the triple $\langle S, \tau,f \rangle$ exhibits homomesy if $f$ has the same average along all…
J. Propp and T. Roby isolated a phenomenon in which a statistic on a set has the same average value over any orbit as its global average, naming it homomesy. They proved that the cardinality statistic on order ideals of the product of two…
Homomesy is an invariance phenomenon in dynamical algebraic combinatorics which occurs when the average value of some statistic on a set of combinatorial objects is the same over each orbit generated by a map on these objects. In this paper…
The dynamics of certain combinatorial actions and their liftings to actions at the piecewise-linear and birational level have been studied lately with an eye towards questions of periodicity, orbit structure, and invariants. One key…
Birational rowmotion is an action on the space of assignments of rational functions to the elements of a finite partially-ordered set (poset). It is lifted from the well-studied rowmotion map on order ideals (equivariantly on antichains) of…
Let $G$ be a group acting on a set $X$ of combinatorial objects, with finite orbits, and consider a statistic $\xi : X \to \mathbb{C}$. Propp and Roby defined the triple $(X, G, \xi)$ to be \emph{homomesic} if for any orbits $\mathcal{O}_1,…
The Fon-Der-Flaass action partitions the order ideals of a poset into disjoint orbits. For a product of two chains, Propp and Roby observed --- across orbits --- the mean cardinality of the order ideals within an orbit to be invariant. That…
The rowmotion operator acting on the set of order ideals of a finite poset has been the focus of a significant amount of recent research. One of the major goals has been to exhibit homomesies: statistics that have the same average along…
We introduce the notion of orbitmesy, which is related to homomesy, a central phenomenon in dynamical algebraic combinatorics. An orbit $O$ is said to be orbitmesic with respect to a statistic if the orbit's average statistic value is equal…
A fence is a poset with elements F = {x_1, x_2, ..., x_n} and covers x_1 < x_2 < ... < x_a > x_{a+1} > ... > x_b < x_{b+1} < ... where a, b, ... are positive integers. We investigate rowmotion on antichains and ideals of F. In particular,…
This article illustrates the dynamical concept of $homomesy$ in three kinds of dynamical systems -- combinatorial, piecewise-linear, and birational -- and shows the relationship between these three settings. In particular, we show how the…
We study rowmotion dynamics on interval-closed sets. Our first main result proves a simplification of the global definition of interval-closed set rowmotion from (Elder, Lafreni\`ere, McNicholas, Striker, and Welch 2024). We then completely…
This paper explores the orbit structure and homomesy (constant averages over orbits) properties of certain actions of toggle groups on the collection of independent sets of a path graph. In particular we prove a generalization of a homomesy…
A rooted tree T is a poset whose Hasse diagram is a graph-theoretic tree having a unique minimal element. We study rowmotion on antichains and lower order ideals of T. Recently Elizalde, Roby, Plante and Sagan considered rowmotion on fences…
We introduce $n(n-1)/2$ natural involutions ("toggles") on the set $S$ of noncrossing partitions $\pi$ of size $n$, along with certain composite operations obtained by composing these involutions. We show that for many operations $T$ of…
In this paper, we perform a systematic study of permutation statistics and bijective maps on permutations in which we identify and prove 122 instances of the homomesy phenomenon. Homomesy occurs when the average value of a statistic is the…
Thomas and Williams conjectured that rowmotion acting on the rational $(a,b)$-Tamari lattice has order $a+b-1$. We construct an equivariant bijection that proves this conjecture when $b\equiv 1\pmod a$; in fact, we determine the entire…
Interval-closed sets of a poset are a natural superset of order ideals. We initiate the study of interval-closed sets of finite posets from enumerative and dynamical perspectives. In particular, we use the generalized toggle group to define…
In 2024, Ceballos and Chenevi{\`e}re introduced alt $\nu$-Tamari lattices, parameterized by a lattice path $\nu$ and an increment vector $\delta$, as a common generalization of $\nu$-Tamari and $\nu$-Dyck lattices. We study rowmotion on two…
