By the Telescope Conjecture for Module Categories, we mean the following claim: "Let R be any ring and (A, B) be a hereditary cotorsion pair in Mod-R with A and B closed under direct limits. Then (A, B) is of finite type." We prove a…
The well known Andrews-Curtis Conjecture [2] is still open. In this paper, we establish its finite version by describing precisely the connected components of the Andrews-Curtis graphs of finite groups. This finite version has independent…
Extension conjecture states that if a simple module over an artin algebra has nonzero first self-extension group then it has nonzero i-th self-extension group for infinitely many positive integers i. It is shown by recollement of…
Recently, F. Brenti put a preprint on the arXiv with several interesting open problems on Coxeter groups and unimodality. In this note, we refute one of these conjectures with a counterexample and provide supporting data related to it. This…
Let u and v be permutations on n letters, with u <= v in Bruhat order. A Bruhat interval polytope Q_{u,v} is the convex hull of all permutation vectors z = (z(1), z(2),...,z(n)) with u <= z <= v. Note that when u=e and v=w_0 are the…
Motivated by the study of the recurrent orbits in a Morse set of a Morse decomposition, we introduce the concept of Morse predecomposition of an isolated invariant set in the setting of combinatorial and classical dynamical systems. We…
A family of sets is called union-closed if whenever $A$ and $B$ are sets of the family, so is $A\cup B$. The long-standing union-closed conjecture states that if a family of subsets of $[n]$ is union-closed, some element appears in at least…
We prove Union-Closed sets conjecture.
Structure constants for the multiplication of Schubert polynomials by Schur symmetric polynomials are known to be related to the enumeration of chains in a new partial order on S_\infty, which we call the universal k-Bruhat order. Here we…
The aim of this note is to show that the cycle decomposition of elements of the symmetric group admits a quite natural formulation in the framework of dual Coxeter theory, yielding a generalization of it to the family of so-called parabolic…
Let $(W,S)$ be a finite Weyl group and let $w\in W$. It is widely appreciated that the descent set D(w)=\{s\in S | l(ws)<l(w)\} determines a very large and important chapter in the study of Coxeter groups. In this paper we generalize some…
Sp\"ath showed that the Alperin-McKay conjecture in the representation theory of finite groups holds if the so-called inductive Alperin-McKay condition holds for all finite simple groups. In a previous article, we showed that the…
We continue the study of freely braided elements of simply laced Coxeter groups, which we introduced in a previous work (math.CO/0301104). A known upper bound for the number of commutation classes of reduced expressions for an element of a…
The goal of this paper is to refine some aspects of the cohomological study of Bruhat-Tits subgroups. It aims to complement the work done in the 1987 article. As an application, we obtain a result "\`a la Grothendieck-Serre" for Bruhat-Tits…
Under the assumption that a defining graph of a Coxeter group admits only subsequent elementary twists in $\mathbb{Z}_2$ or dihedral groups and is of type $\mathrm{FC}$, we prove Bernhard M\"uhlherr's Twist Conjecture
In this paper, we use subword complexes to provide a uniform approach to finite type cluster complexes and multi-associahedra. We introduce, for any finite Coxeter group and any nonnegative integer k, a spherical subword complex called…
F. Wehrung has asked: Given a family $\mathcal{C}$ of subsets of a set $\Omega$, under what conditions will there exist a total ordering on $\Omega$ under which every member of $\mathcal{C}$ is convex? <p> Note that if $A$ and $B$ are…
Kottwitz' conjecture is concerned with the intersections of Kazhdan--Lusztig cells with conjugacy classes of involutions in finite Coxeter groups. In joint work with Bonnaf\'e, we have recently found a way to prove this conjecture for…
Let $G$ be a closed highly homogeneous subgroup of $S_{\infty}$ not involving circular orderings. We show that the closure of a conjugacy class from $G$ contains a conjugacy class which is comeagre in it. Furthermore, we show that the…
The structure of order ideals in the Bruhat order for the symmetric group is elucidated via permutation patterns. A method for determining non-isomorphic principal order ideals is described and applied for small lengths. The permutations…
