Let $P_{\lambda\Sigma_n}$ be the Ehrhart polynomial associated to an intergal multiple $\lambda$ of the standard symplex $\Sigma_n \subset \mathbb{R}^n$. In this paper we prove that if $(M, L)$ is an $n$-dimensional polarized toric manifold…

There is a simple formula for the Ehrhart polynomial of a cyclic polytope. The purpose of this paper is to show that the same formula holds for a more general class of polytopes, lattice-face polytopes. We develop a way of decomposing any…

We extend the family non-symmetric Macdonald polynomials and define general-basement Macdonald polynomials. We show that these also satisfy a triangularity property with respect to the monomials bases and behave well under the…

Circuit polynomials are a certificate of nonnegativity for real polynomials, which can be derived via a generalization of the classical inequality of arithmetic and geometric means. In this article, we show that similarly nonnegativity of…

In 2017 Aguiar and Ardila provided a generic way to construct polynomial invariants of combinatorial objects using the notions of Hopf monoids and characters of Hopf monoids. They show that it is possible to find a combinatorial…

Anari, Gharan, and Vinzant proved (complete) log-concavity of the basis generating functions for all matroids. From the viewpoint of combinatorial Hodge theory, it is natural to ask whether these functions are "strictly" log-concave for…

We use the equivariant cohomology ring of the permutohedral variety to study matroids and their invariants. Investigating the pushforward of matroid Chern classes defined by A. Berget, C. Eur, H. Spink and D. Tseng to the product space…

Generalized permutohedra are deformations of regular permutohedra, and arise in many different fields of mathematics. One important characterization of generalized permutohedra is the Submodular Theorem, which is related to the deformation…

We derive a formula for the number of lattice points in type B generalized permutohedra, providing a concise alternative to the formula obtained recently by Eur, Fink, Larson, and Spink as a result from a study of delta-matroids. Our…

We give a parametric representation of the effective noncommutative field theory derived from a $\kappa$-deformation of the Ponzano-Regge model and define a generalized Kirchhoff polynomial with $\kappa$-correction terms, obtained in a…

In this paper, we give a formula for the number of lattice points in the dilations of Schubert matroid polytopes. As applications, we obtain the Ehrhart polynomials of uniform and minimal matroids as special cases, and give a recursive…

We prove the positivity of Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials for sparse paving matroids, which are known to be logarithmically almost all matroids, but are conjectured to be almost all matroids. The positivity follows from a remarkably simple…

We associate to every matroid M a polynomial with integer coefficients, which we call the Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial of M, in analogy with Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials in representation theory. We conjecture that the coefficients are always…

We prove formulas for the Bernoulli numbers by using the Newton-Girard identities to evaluate the Riemann zeta function at positive even integers. To do this, we define a sequence of positive integers, a sequence of polynomials, and a…

We prove the complete monotonicity on $(0,\infty)^n$ for suitable inverse powers of the spanning-tree polynomials of graphs and, more generally, of the basis generating polynomials of certain classes of matroids. This generalizes a result…

This article provides a comprehensive exposition about inequalities that the coefficients of Ehrhart polynomials and $h^*$-polynomials satisfy under various assumptions. We pay particular attention to the properties of Ehrhart positivity as…

Recently, in arXiv:1304.7895; Ukrainian Math. J. - 2014.- 66. - P. 371 - 383, we presented the generalized Li's criterion. This is the statement that the sums /lambda_(n, b, /sigma)=Sum_(rho)((1-((/rho+b)/(/rho-b-2*/sigma))^n)), taken over…
