An open problem in convex geometry asks whether two simplices $A,B\subseteq\mathbb{R}^d$, both containing the origin in their convex hulls, admit a polynomial-length sequence of vertex exchanges transforming $A$ into $B$ while maintaining…
Tropical oriented matroids were defined by Ardila and Develin in 2007. They are a tropical analogue of classical oriented matroids in the sense that they encode the properties of the types of points in an arrangement of tropical hyperplanes…
Electronic structure methods that exploit nonorthogonal Slater determinants face the challenge of efficiently computing nonorthogonal matrix elements. In a recent publication, H. G. A. Burton, J. Chem. Phys. 154, 144109 (2021), I introduced…
Given an $n$-connected binary matroid, we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for its single-element coextensions to be $n$-connected.
We characterize the shifted simple graphs and the $3$-uniform shifted hypergraphs whose inverse image under exterior shifting is the set of bases of a matroid: those are exactly the hypergraphs whose hyperedges form an initial lex-segment.…
In this paper, we establish a one-to-one correspondence between the set of biclosed sets in an irreducible root system of type $A_n$ and the set of quasitrivial semigroup structures on a set with $n+1$ elements. Building on this…
For any cluster-tilting object $\mathsf{T}$ in the cluster category $\mathscr{C}_{n}$ of type $\mathbb{A}_{n}$, we construct a rank-four oriented matroid $\mathcal{M}_{\mathsf{T}}$ such that stackable triangulations of…
We discuss several extension properties of matroids and polymatroids and their application as necessary conditions for the existence of different matroid representations, namely linear, folded linear, algebraic, and entropic…
This paper investigates the question of uniqueness of the reduced oriented matroid structure arising from root systems of a Coxeter group in real vector spaces. We settle the question for finite Coxeter groups, irreducible affine Weyl…
In 1980, Las Vergnas defined a notion of discrete convexity for oriented matroids, which Edelman subsequently related to the theory of anti-exchange closure functions and convex geometries. In this paper, we use generalized matroid activity…
Transversal structures (also known as regular edge labelings) are combinatorial structures defined over 4-connected plane triangulations with quadrangular outer-face. They have been intensively studied and used for many applications…
In 2004, Ehrenfeucht, Harju, and Rozenberg showed that any graph on a vertex set $V$ can be obtained from a complete graph on $V$ via a sequence of the operations of complementation, switching edges and non-edges at a vertex, and local…
We characterize bijections on matrix spaces (operator algebras) preserving full rank (invertibility) of differences of matrix (operator) pairs in both directions.
We describe a special bijection between the indecomposable summands of two basic $\tau$-tilting modules.
A mixed graph is a graph with some directed edges and some undirected edges. We introduce the notion of mixed matroids as a generalization of mixed graphs. A mixed matroid can be viewed as an oriented matroid in which the signs over a fixed…
For matroids M and N on disjoint sets S and T, a semidirect sum of M and N is a matroid K on the union of S and T that, like the direct sum and the free product, has the restriction of K to S equal to M and the contraction of K to T equal…
In this series of two papers we will generalise the concept of extending a Lie algebroid by a Lie algebra bundle, leading to a notion of extending a Lie algebroid by another Lie algebroid whose orbits lie in the orbits of the former…
We prove that there exists a geometric bijection between the sets of adjoint and coadjoint orbits of a semidirect product, provided a similar bijection holds for particular subgroups. We also show that under certain conditions the homotopy…
We study paving matroids, their realization spaces, and their closures, along with matroid varieties and circuit varieties. Within this context, we introduce three distinct methods for generating polynomials within the associated ideals of…
We extend the Marcus-Schaeffer bijection between orientable rooted bipartite quadrangulations (equivalently: rooted maps) and orientable labeled one-face maps to the case of all surfaces, that is orientable and non-orientable as well. This…
