Promotion digraphs

Rebecca Patrias, Oliver Pechenik, Jessica Striker

Work of Gaetz, Pechenik, Pfannerer, Striker, and Swanson (2024) introduced promotion permutations for a rectangular standard Young tableau . These promotion permutations encode…

Rotation-invariant web bases from hourglass plabic graphs

Christian Gaetz, Oliver Pechenik, Stephan Pfannerer +2

Webs give a diagrammatic calculus for spaces of tensor invariants. We introduce hourglass plabic graphs as a new avatar of webs, and use these to give the first rotation-invariant…

The Many Faces of Magog Matrices

Rohan Bansal, Jessica Striker

Magog matrices, introduced by Holmlund and Striker in 2025, provide a matrix model for totally symmetric self-complementary plane partitions (TSSCPPs), as a natural analogue of alt…

Toric Promotion with Reflections and Refractions

Ashleigh Adams, Colin Defant, Jessica Striker

Inspired by recent work on refraction billiards in dynamics, we introduce a notion of refraction for combinatorial billiards. This allows us to define a generalization of toric pro…

Forest webs and pattern avoidance

Jessica Striker, Bridget Eileen Tenner

In a recent preprint, Mike Cummings showed that the smooth components of suitably parametrized Springer fibers are in bijection with contracted, fully reduced Plücker degree-two $…

Webification of symmetry classes of plane partitions

Ashleigh Adams, Jessica Striker

Webs are graphical objects that give a tangible, combinatorial way to compute and classify tensor invariants. Recently, [Gaetz, Pechenik, Pfannerer, Striker, Swanson 2023+] found a…
