Generalized associahedra were introduced by S. Fomin and A. Zelevinsky in connection to finite type cluster algebras. Following recent work of L. Pournin in types $A$ and $B$, this paper focuses on geodesic properties of generalized…
We construct and study a class of algebras associated to generalized layered graphs, i.e. directed graphs with a ranking function on their vertices. Each finite directed acyclic graph admits countably many structures of a generalized…
The aim of the paper is to calculate face numbers of simple generalized permutohedra, and study their f-, h- and gamma-vectors. These polytopes include permutohedra, associahedra, graph-associahedra, simple graphic zonotopes, nestohedra,…
Twisted commutative algebras (tca's) have played an important role in the nascent field of representation stability. Let A_d be the complex tca freely generated by d indeterminates of degree 1. In a previous paper, we determined the…
Blind and Mani, and later Kalai, showed that the face lattice of a simple polytope is determined by its graph, namely its $1$-skeleton. Call a vertex of a $d$-polytope \emph{nonsimple} if the number of edges incident to it is more than $d$.…
Characteristic properties of corings with a grouplike element are analysed. Associated differential graded rings are studied. A correspondence between categories of comodules and flat connections is established. A generalisation of the…
The Gorenstein property in local algebra admits several characterizations via its module category. The goal of this paper is to collect and generalize such characterizations to the relative setting, i.e., to Gorenstein morphisms as defined…
The face ring of a simplicial complex modulo m generic linear forms is shown to have finite local cohomology if and only if the link of every face of dimension m or more is `nonsingular', i.e., has the homology of a wedge of spheres of the…
We determine the diameter of the 1-skeleton and the combinatorial automorphism group of any Gelfand-Tsetlin polytope GT$_{\lambda}$ associated to an integer partition $\lambda.$
Quadratic algebras associated to graphs have been introduced by I. Gelfand, S. Gelfand, and Retakh in connection with decompositions of noncommutative polynomials. Here we show that, for each graph with rare triangular subgraphs, the…
To a finite quadratic module, that is, a finite abelian group D together with a non-singular quadratic form Q:D --> Q/Z, it is possible to associate a representation of either the modular group, SL(2,Z), or its metaplectic cover, Mp(2,Z),…
Several recent papers have examined a rational polyhedron $P_m$ whose integer points are in bijection with the numerical semigroups (cofinite, additively closed subsets of the non-negative integers) containing $m$. A combinatorial…
This is a review paper on the Gelfand-Tsetlin type bases for representations of the classical Lie algebras. Different approaches to construct the original Gelfand-Tsetlin bases for representations of the general linear Lie algebra are…
We study nested complexes of building sets on the Las Vergnas face lattices of oriented matroids. Such a nested complex is the face lattice of an oriented matroid, obtained by iterated stellar subdivisions of the positive tope. If the…
We analyze a remarkable class of centrally symmetric polytopes, the Hansen polytopes of split graphs. We confirm Kalai's 3^d-conjecture for such polytopes (they all have at least 3^d nonempty faces) and show that the Hanner polytopes among…
Given a graph G, we construct a simple, convex polytope whose face poset is based on the connected subgraphs of G. This provides a natural generalization of the Stasheff associahedron and the Bott-Taubes cyclohedron. Moreover, we show that…
We develop a diagrammatic categorification of the polynomial ring $Z[x]$. Our categorification satisfies a version of Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand reciprocity property with the indecomposable projective modules corresponding to $x^n$ and…
In this note we investigate the convex hull of those $n \times n$-permutation matrices that correspond to symmetries of a regular $n$-gon. We give the complete facet description. As an application, we show that this yields a Gorenstein…
It is known that every lattice polytope is unimodularly equivalent to a face of some reflexive polytope. A stronger question is to ask whether every $(0,1)$-polytope is unimodularly equivalent to a facet of some reflexive polytope. A large…
The probability content of a convex polyhedron with a multivariate normal distribution can be regarded as a real analytic function. We give a system of linear partial differential equations with polynomial coefficients for the function and…
