It is well known that the 2-variable Tutte polynomials contain chromatic polynomial and flow polynomial of graphs, i.e. the cases of $y=0$ and $x=0$. In 2013, K\'{a}lm\'{a}n introduced the interior and exterior polynomials which generalized…

The Tutte polynomial and Derksen's $\mathcal{G}$-invariant are the universal deletion-contraction and valuative matroid and polymatroid invariants, respectively. There are only a handful of well known invariants (like the matroid…

Cut-and-paste $K$-theory is a new variant of higher algebraic $K$-theory that has proven to be useful in problems involving decompositions of combinatorial and geometric objects, e.g., scissors congruence of polyhedra and reconstruction…

Many combinatorial and topological invariants of a hyperplane arrangement can be computed in terms of its Tutte polynomial. Similarly, many invariants of a hypertoric arrangement can be computed in terms of its arithmetic Tutte polynomial.…

Specializing the $\gamma$-basis for the vector space $\mathcal{G}(n,r)$ spanned by the set of symbols on bit sequences with $r$ $1$'s and $n-r$ $0$'s, we obtain a frame or spanning set for the vector space $\mathcal{T}(n,r)$ spanned by…

In the present paper, we introduce the concept of harmonic Tutte polynomials of matroids and discuss some of their properties. In particular, we generalize Greene's theorem, thereby expressing harmonic weight enumerators of codes as…

We construct a new polynomial invariant of maps (graphs embedded in a compact surface, orientable or non-orientable), which contains as specializations the Krushkal polynomial, the Bollob\'as--Riordan polynomial, the Las Vergnas polynomial,…

Many important enumerative invariants of a matroid can be obtained from its Tutte polynomial, and many more are determined by two stronger invariants, the $\mathcal{G}$-invariant and the configuration of the matroid. We show that the same…

There are several different extensions of the Tutte polynomial to graphs embedded in surfaces. To help frame the different options, here we consider the problem of extending the Tutte polynomial to cellularly embedded graphs starting from…

By considering Tutte polynomials of Hopf algebras, we show how a Tutte polynomial can be canonically associated with combinatorial objects that have some notions of deletion and contraction. We show that several graph polynomials from the…

The Tutte polynomial for matroids is not directly applicable to polymatroids. For instance, deletion-contraction properties do not hold. We construct a polynomial for polymatroids which behaves similarly to the Tutte polynomial of a…

We prove that the Tutte polynomial of a coloopless paving matroid is convex along the portions of the line segments x+y=p lying in the positive quadrant. Every coloopless paving matroids is in the class of matroids which contain two…

A common generalization for the chromatic polynomial and the flow polynomial of a graph $G$ is the Tutte polynomial $T(G;x,y)$. The combinatorial meaning for the coefficients of $T$ was discovered by Tutte at the beginning of its…
