The parity module of a matroid

Tom Braden, June Huh, Jacob P. Matherne +2

We introduce the parity module of a matroid with coefficients in a field . When has characteristic zero, we show that the parity module of a matroid is iso…

Chromatic symmetric functions of claw-free graphs are not Schur positive

Jacob P. Matherne, Alejandro H. Morales

Chromatic symmetric functions are well-studied symmetric functions in algebraic combinatorics that generalize chromatic polynomials of graphs. In 1995, Stanley introduced these sym…

Universality theorems for generalized splines

Jacob Matherne, Eric Ramos, Julianna Tymoczko

We study generalized splines from the perspective of the representation theory of the category of graphs with contractions. Our main theorem proves a kind of finite generation, whi…

Inverse Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials of matroids under deletion

Tom Braden, Luis Ferroni, Jacob P. Matherne +1

We provide a deletion formula for the inverse Kazhdan--Lusztig polynomial and the inverse -polynomial of a matroid. Our formulas provide analogues to the deletion formulas of Br…

Building sets, Chow rings, and their Hilbert series

Christopher Eur, Luis Ferroni, Jacob P. Matherne +2

We establish formulas for the Hilbert series of the Chow ring of a polymatroid using arbitrary building sets. For braid matroids and minimal building sets, our results produce new…

Chow functions for partially ordered sets

Luis Ferroni, Jacob P. Matherne, Lorenzo Vecchi

Three decades ago, Stanley and Brenti initiated the study of the Kazhdan--Lusztig--Stanley (KLS) functions, putting on common ground several polynomials appearing in algebraic comb…

Deletion formulas for equivariant Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials of matroids

Luis Ferroni, Jacob P. Matherne, Lorenzo Vecchi

We study equivariant Kazhdan--Lusztig (KL) and -polynomials of matroids. We formulate an equivariant generalization of a result by Braden and Vysogorets that relates the equivar…

Hilbert-Poincaré series of matroid Chow rings and intersection cohomology

Luis Ferroni, Jacob P. Matherne, Matthew Stevens +1

We study the Hilbert series of four objects arising in the Chow-theoretic and Kazhdan-Lusztig framework of matroids. These are, respectively, the Hilbert series of the Chow ring, t…

The Newton polytope and Lorentzian property of chromatic symmetric functions

Jacob P. Matherne, Alejandro H. Morales, Jesse Selover

Chromatic symmetric functions are well-studied symmetric functions in algebraic combinatorics that generalize the chromatic polynomial and are related to Hessenberg varieties and d…

Generalized splines on graphs with two labels and polynomial splines on cycles

Portia Anderson, Jacob P. Matherne, Julianna Tymoczko

Generalized splines are an algebraic combinatorial framework that generalizes and unifies various established concepts across different fields, most notably the classical notion of…

Equivariant log concavity and representation stability

Jacob P. Matherne, Dane Miyata, Nicholas Proudfoot +1

We expand upon the notion of equivariant log concavity, and make equivariant log concavity conjectures for Orlik--Solomon algebras of matroids, Cordovil algebras of oriented matroi…

Singular Hodge theory for combinatorial geometries

Tom Braden, June Huh, Jacob P. Matherne +2

We introduce the intersection cohomology module of a matroid and prove that it satisfies Poincaré duality, the hard Lefschetz theorem, and the Hodge-Riemann relations. As applicati…

Counting linear extensions of posets with determinants of hook lengths

Alexander Garver, Stefan Grosser, Jacob P. Matherne +1

We introduce a class of posets, which includes both ribbon posets (skew shapes) and -complete posets, such that their number of linear extensions is given by a determinant of a…

Logarithmic concavity of Schur and related polynomials

June Huh, Jacob P. Matherne, Karola Mészáros +1

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 sp…

Matroid-minor Hopf algebra: a cancellation-free antipode formula and other applications of sign-reversing involutions

Eric Bucher, Chris Eppolito, Jaiung Jun +1

In this paper, we give a cancellation-free antipode formula for the matroid-minor Hopf algebra. We then explore applications of this formula. For example, the cancellation-free for…

A cancellation-free antipode formula (for uniform matroids) for the restriction-contraction matroid Hopf algebra

Eric Bucher, Jacob P. Matherne

In this paper, we give a cancellation-free antipode formula (for uniform matroids) for the restriction-contraction matroid Hopf algebra, using the technique of splitting and mergin…
