It is shown that the lattices of flats of boolean representable simplicial complexes are always atomistic, but semimodular if and only if the complex is a matroid. A canonical construction is introduced for arbitrary finite atomistic…
This paper studies the properties of two kinds of matroids: (a) algebraic matroids and (b) finite and infinite matroids whose ground set have some canonical symmetry, for example row and column symmetry and transposition symmetry. For (a)…
Euclidean lattices occupy a central position in number theory, the geometry of numbers, and modern cryptography. In the present article, the theory of Euclidean lattices is employed to investigate normed $\mathbb{Z}$-modules of finite rank.…
A periodic lattice in Euclidean space is the infinite set of all integer linear combinations of basis vectors. Any lattice can be generated by infinitely many different bases. This ambiguity was only partially resolved, but standard…
We consider structural properties of $\mathcal{L}$-polymatroids, especially those defined on a finite complemented modular lattice $\mathcal{L}$. We introduce a set of cover-weight axioms and establish a cryptomorphism between these axioms…
A matroid has been one of the most important combinatorial structures since it was introduced by Whitney as an abstraction of linear independence. As an important property of a matroid, it can be characterized by several different (but…
We characterize a rich class of valuated matroids, called R-minor valuated matroids that includes the indicator functions of matroids, and is closed under operations such as taking minors, duality, and induction by network. We exhibit a…
This paper primarily studies monomial ideals by their associated lcm-lattices. It first introduces notions of weak coordinatizations of finite atomic lattices which have weaker hypotheses than coordinatizations and shows the…
A matroid base polytope is a polytope in which each vertex has 0,1 coordinates and each edge is parallel to a difference of two coordinate vectors. Matroid base polytopes are described combinatorially by integral submodular functions on a…
We introduce tropical matroid Schubert varieties, a tropical analogue of arrangement Schubert varieties associated with realisable matroids. We prove that the tropical cohomology ring of the tropical matroid Schubert variety associated to…
We classify the unimodular Euclidean integral lattices of rank 29 by developing an elementary, yet very efficient, inductive method. As an application, we determine the isometry classes of even lattices of rank at most 28 and prime…
Every homomorphism from finite index subgroups of a universal lattices to mapping class groups of orientable surfaces (possibly with punctures), or to outer automorphism groups of finitely generated nonabelian free groups must have finite…
The fundamental theorem of symmetric polynomials over rings is a classical result which states that every unital commutative ring is fully elementary, i.e. we can express symmetric polynomials with elementary ones in a unique way. The…
We introduce the notion of a matroid M over a commutative ring R, assigning to every subset of the ground set an R-module according to some axioms. When R is a field, we recover matroids. When R=$\mathbb{Z}$, and when R is a DVR, we get…
We study weaker variations of the property of flatness in matroid theory. We show that these variations form a chain of increasingly stronger properties all implying pseudomodularity on its lattice of flats. We show examples in the gammoid…
Symmetric powers of matroids were first introduced by Lovasz and Mason in the 1970s, where it was shown that not all matroids admit higher symmetric powers. Since these initial findings, the study of matroid symmetric powers has remained…
In this article we introduce theory and algorithms for learning discrete representations that take on a lattice that is embedded in an Euclidean space. Lattice representations possess an interesting combination of properties: a) they can be…
This work proposes an alternative approach to the so-called lattice of embedded subsets, which is included in the product of the subset and partition lattices of a finite set, and whose elements are pairs consisting of a subset and a…
One-dimensional quasilattices are classified into mutual local-derivability (MLD) classes on the basis of geometrical and number-theoretical considerations. Most quasilattices are ternary, and there exist an infinite number of MLD classes.…
We establish a connection between the algebraic geometry of the type B permutohedral toric variety and the combinatorics of delta-matroids. Using this connection, we compute the volume and lattice point counts of type B generalized…
