In this paper, we systematically study non-crossing chords of simple polygons in the plane. We first introduce the reduced Euler characteristic of a family of line-segments, and subsequently investigate the structure of the diagonals and…
We present results on the enumeration of crossings and nestings for matchings and set partitions. Using a bijection between partitions and vacillating tableaux, we show that if we fix the sets of minimal block elements and maximal block…
For a Lattice crossing $L\left( m,n\right) $ we show which Catalan connection between $2\left( m+n\right) $ points on boundary of $m\times n$ rectangle $P$ can be realized as a Kauffman state and we give an explicit formula for the number…
We introduce two partially ordered sets, $P^A_n$ and $P^B_n$, of the same cardinalities as the type-A and type-B noncrossing partition lattices. The ground sets of $P^A_n$ and $P^B_n$ are subsets of the symmetric and the hyperoctahedral…
In tri-partite systems, there are three basic biseparability, $A$-$BC$, $B$-$CA$ and $C$-$AB$ biseparability according to bipartitions of local systems. We begin with three convex sets consisting of these basic biseparable states in the…
It is well-known that the number of non-crossing perfect matchings of $2k$ points in convex position in the plane is $C_k$, the $k$th Catalan number. Garc\'ia, Noy, and Tejel proved in 2000 that for any set of $2k$ points in general…
Let ${\cal PO}_n$ be the semigroup of all order-preserving partial transformations of a finite chain. It is shown that there exist bijections between the set of certain lattice paths in the Cartesian plane that start at $(0,0)$, end at…
In this article we prove that the lattice of noncrossing partitions is EL-shellable when associated with the well-generated complex reflection group of type $G(d,d,n)$, for $d,n\geq 3$, or with the exceptional well-generated complex…
We solve two open problems in Coxeter-Catalan combinatorics. First, we introduce a family of rational noncrossing objects for any finite Coxeter group, using the combinatorics of distinguished subwords. Second, we give a type-uniform proof…
In this paper, we use a simple discrete dynamical model to study integer partitions and their lattice. The set of reachable configurations of the model, with the order induced by the transition rule defined on it, is the lattice of all…
We explore partitions that lie in the intersection of several sets of classical interest: partitions with parts indivisible by $m$, appearing fewer than $m$ times, or differing by less than $m$. We find results on their behavior and…
There are three classical lattices on the Catalan numbers: the Tamari lattice, the lattice of noncrossing partitions and the lattice of Dyck paths. The first is known to be isomorphic to the lattice of torsion classes of the path algebra of…
We give a combinatorial model for the bounded derived category of graded modules over the dual numbers in terms of arcs on the integer line with a point at infinity. Using this model we describe the lattice of thick subcategories of the…
We study the smallest convex lattice generated by a finite set of points. To analyze this structure, we introduce the notion of a point configuration, defined via the relative lattice. Under a suitable completeness condition, this lattice…
Edge crossings in geometric graphs are sometimes undesirable as they could lead to unwanted situations such as collisions in motion planning and inconsistency in VLSI layout. Short geometric structures such as shortest perfect matchings,…
The combinatorial properties of partitions with various restrictions on their hooksets are explored. A connection with numerical semigroups extends current results on simultaneous s/t-cores. Conditions that suffice for a partition to…
We study positive $m$-divisible non-crossing partitions and their positive Kreweras maps. In classical types, we describe their combinatorial realisations as certain non-crossing set partitions. We also realise these positive Kreweras maps…
Given a surface with boundary and some points on its boundary, a polygon diagram is a way to connect those points as vertices of non-overlapping polygons on the surface. Such polygon diagrams represent non-crossing permutations on a surface…
Given an even number of points in a plane, we are interested in matching all the points by straight line segments so that the segments do not cross. Bottleneck matching is a matching that minimizes the length of the longest segment. For…
Given a set of points in the plane, we are interested in matching them with straight line segments. We focus on perfect (all points are matched) non-crossing (no two edges intersect) matchings. Apart from the well known MinMax variation,…
