We associate a polynomial to any diagram of unit cells in the first quadrant of the plane using Kohnert's algorithm for moving cells down. In this way, for every weak composition one can choose a cell diagram with corresponding row-counts,…

We introduce an idempotent analogue of the exterior algebra for which the theory of tropical linear spaces (and valuated matroids) can be seen in close analogy with the classical Grassmann algebra formalism for linear spaces. The top wedge…

A new tropical plactic algebra is introduced in which the Knuth relations are inferred from the underlying semiring arithmetics, encapsulating the ubiquitous plactic monoid $\mathcal{P}_n$. This algebra manifests a natural framework for…

We investigate the representation theory of the polynomial core of the quantum Teichmuller space of a punctured surface S. This is a purely algebraic object, closely related to the combinatorics of the simplicial complex of ideal cell…

We give a broad study of representation and module theory of Rota-Baxter algebras. Regular-singular decompositions of Rota-Baxter algebras and Rota-Baxter modules are obtained under the condition of quasi-idempotency. Representations of an…

We develop a theory of principal determinants and hypergeometric systems for realizable matroids. Our framework parallels the toric theory of Gel'fand, Kapranov, and Zelevinsky (GKZ), but with the combinatorics of matroids and their flats…

The Representation Theorem by Zomorodian and Carlsson has been the starting point of the study of persistent homology under the lens of algebraic representation theory. In this work, we give a more accurate statement of the original theorem…

Given an $\Bbb{F}$-represented matroid $(M,\rho)$ with the ground set $[m]$, the representation $\rho$ naturally defines a hyperplane arrangement $\mathcal{A}_\rho$. We will study its parallel translates $\mathcal{A}_{\rho,{g}}$ of…

A new isomorphism invariant of matroids is introduced, in the form of a quasisymmetric function. This invariant (1) defines a Hopf morphism from the Hopf algebra of matroids to the quasisymmetric functions, which is surjective if one uses…

Covering ill-posed problems with compact and non-compact operators regarding the degree of ill-posedness is a never ending story written by many authors in the inverse problems literature. This paper tries to add a new narrative and some…

We extend an energy introduced by Mather to the setting of Almgren-Pitts min-max theory and obtain a parametric, higher-dimensional analogue of Mather's variational barrier theory for twist maps and geodesics on tori. We use this energy to…

We introduce the idea of *representation stability* (and several variations) for a sequence of representations V_n of groups G_n. A central application of the new viewpoint we introduce here is the importation of representation theory into…

A bimatroid is a matroid-like generalization of the collection of regular minors of a matrix. In this article, we use the theory of Lorentzian polynomials to study the logarithmic concavity of natural sequences associated to bimatroids.…

The representability theorem for stacks, due to Artin in the underived setting and Lurie in the derived setting, gives conditions under which a stack is representable by an $n$-geometric stack. In recent work of Ben-Bassat, Kelly, and…

Matrix Schubert varieties (Fulton '92) carry natural actions of Levi groups. Their coordinate rings are thereby Levi-representations; what is a combinatorial counting rule for the multiplicities of their irreducibles? When the Levi group is…

We show the following version of the Schur's product theorem. If $M=(M_{j,k})_{j,k=1}^n\in{\mathbb R}^{n\times n}$ is a positive semidefinite matrix with all entries on the diagonal equal to one, then the matrix $N=(N_{j,k})_{j,k=1}^n$ with…
