We propose an $r$-variable version of Kostka-Shoji polynomials $K^-_{\lambda\mu}$ for $r$-multipartitions $\lambda,\mu$. Our version has positive integral coefficients and encodes the graded multiplicities in the space of global sections of…
Many combinatorial properties of a point set in the plane are determined by the set of possible partitions of the point set by a line. Their essential combinatorial properties are well captured by the axioms of oriented matroids. In fact,…
We study the higher-order Euler polynomials and give the corresponding monic orthogonal polynomials, which are Meixner-Pollaczek polynomials with certain arguments and constant factors. Moreover, through a general connection between moments…
We show that normalized Schur polynomials are strongly log-concave. As a consequence, we obtain Okounkov's log-concavity conjecture for Littlewood-Richardson coefficients in the special case of Kostka numbers.
Given a closed, convex cone $K\subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$, a multivariate polynomial $f\in\mathbb{C}[\mathbf{z}]$ is called $K$-stable if the imaginary parts of its roots are not contained in the relative interior of $K$. If $K$ is the…
The paper describes the algebraic structure of the graded algebra of differentially homogeneous polynomials of fixed finite order. We show that it is a finitely generated algebra, and we exhibit a minimal set of generators. Along the way,…
Polynomial-time deterministic approximation of volumes of polytopes, up to an approximation factor that grows at most sub-exponentially with the dimension, remains an open problem. Recent work on this question has focused on identifying…
Geometry of sparse systems of polynomial equations (i.e. the ones with prescribed monomials and generic coefficients) is well studied in terms of their Newton polytopes. The results of this study are colloquially known as 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,…
In this paper we give two realizations of the restricted Kostka polynomials for $\sl_2$. Firstly we identify the restricted Kostka polynomials with a characters of the zero homology of the current algebra with a coefficients in a certain…
We construct the moduli space of finite dimensional representations of generalized quivers for arbitrary connected complex reductive groups using Geometric Invariant Theory as well as Symplectic reduction methods. We explicit characterize…
An iterative formula for the Kostka-Foulkes polynomials is given using the vertex operator realization of the Hall-Littlewood polynomials. The operational formula can handle large Kostka-Foulkes polynomials, and a stability property for the…
The volume and the number of lattice points of the permutohedron P_n are given by certain multivariate polynomials that have remarkable combinatorial properties. We give several different formulas for these polynomials. We also study a more…
We construct scattering diagrams for Chekhov-Shapiro's generalized cluster algebras where exchange polynomials are factorized into binomials, generalizing the cluster scattering diagrams of Gross, Hacking, Keel and Kontsevich. They turn out…
We introduce and study the notion of conic stability of multivariate complex polynomials in $\mathbb{C}[z_1,\ldots, z_n]$, which naturally generalizes the stability of multivariate polynomials. In particular, we generalize Borcea's and…
Assume that there is a set of monic polynomials $P_n(z)$ satisfying the second-order difference equation $$ A(s) P_n(z(s+1)) + B(s) P_n(z(s)) + C(s) P_n(z(s-1)) = \lambda_n P_n(z(s)), n=0,1,2,..., N$$ where $z(s), A(s), B(s), C(s)$ are some…

We associate to every matroid M a polynomial with integer coefficients, which we call the Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial of M, in analogy with Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials in representation theory. We conjecture that the coefficients are always…
