There is a natural notion of a subdivision of a lower Eulerian poset called a strong formal subdivision, which abstracts the notion of a polyhedral subdivision of a polytope, or a proper, surjective morphism of fans. We show that there is a…
Kohnert polynomials and their associated posets are combinatorial objects with deep geometric and representation theoretic connections, generalizing both Schubert polynomials and type A Demazure characters. In this paper, we explore the…
We introduce the Z-polynomial of a matroid, which we define in terms of the Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial. We then exploit a symmetry of the Z-polynomial to derive a new recursion for Kazhdan-Lusztig coefficients. We solve this recursion,…
We introduce a new type of operad-like structure called a P-operad, which depends on the choice of some collection of posets P, and which is governed by chains in posets of P. We introduce several examples of such structures which are…
Huh-Stevens and Ferroni-Schr\"oter independently conjectured that Hilbert-Poincar\'e series of Chow rings of geometric lattices have only real zeros. Ferroni, Matherne and the second author extended this conjecture to Chow polynomials of…
We present higher dimensional versions of the classical results of Euler and Fuss, both of which are special cases of the celebrated Poncelet porism. Our results concern polytopes, specifically simplices, parallelotopes and cross polytopes,…
We introduce two polynomials (in $q$) associated with a finite poset $P$ that encode some information on the covering relation in $P$. If $P$ is a distributive lattice, and hence $P$ is isomorphic to the poset of dual order ideals in a…
Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a Weyl arrangement. We introduce and study the notion of $\mathcal{A}$-Eulerian polynomial producing an Eulerian-like polynomial for any subarrangement of $\mathcal{A}$. This polynomial together with shift operator…
The Interval poset of a permutation is an effective way of capturing all the intervals of the permutation and the inclusions between them and was introduced recently by Tenner. Thi paper explores the geometric interpretation of interval…
We obtain a precise relation between the Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a subvariety of projective space and the Euler characteristics of its general linear sections. In the case of a hypersurface, this leads to simple proofs of…
A rational polytope is the convex hull of a finite set of points in $\R^d$ with rational coordinates. Given a rational polytope $P \subseteq \R^d$, Ehrhart proved that, for $t\in\Z_{\ge 0}$, the function $#(tP \cap \Z^d)$ agrees with a…
We prove that each bounded polytope can be represented as a polynomial zonotope, which we refer to as the Z-representation of polytopes. Previous representations are the vertex representation (V-representation) and the halfspace…
Suppose X is the complex zero set of a finite collection of polynomials in Z[x_1,...,x_n]. We show that deciding whether X contains a point all of whose coordinates are d_th roots of unity can be done within NP^NP (relative to the sparse…
We present a matrix-theoretic approach for studying and enumerating finite posets through their incidence representations, referred to as poset matrices. Naturally labelled posets are encoded as Boolean lower triangular matrices, allowing a…
A graded partially ordered set is Eulerian if every interval has the same number of elements of even rank and of odd rank. Face lattices of convex polytopes are Eulerian. For Eulerian partially ordered sets, the flag vector can be encoded…
We introduce the short toric polynomial associated to a graded Eulerian poset. This polynomial contains the same information as the two toric polynomials introduced by Stanley, but allows different algebraic manipulations. The intertwined…
In this article, we study Chow polynomials of weakly ranked posets and prove the existence of Gorenstein algebras with the K\"ahler package such that their Hilbert--Poincar\'e series agrees with the Chow polynomial. Our statement provides…
We describe the (equivariant) intersection cohomology of certain moduli spaces ("framed Uhlenbeck spaces") together with some structures on them (such as e.g.\ the Poincar\'e pairing) in terms of representation theory of some vertex…
In this paper we extend the notion of a Lorentz cone. We call a closed convex set isotone projection set with respect to a pointed closed convex cone if the projection onto the set is isotone (i.e., monotone) with respect to the order…
We define a partial order $\mathcal{P}_n$ on permutations of any given size $n$, which is the image of a natural partial order on inversion sequences. We call this the ``middle order''. We demonstrate that the poset $\mathcal{P}_n$ refines…
