Stellahedral geometry of partially ordered sets

Tommaso Faustini, Luis Ferroni, Ludovico Piazza

We introduce a transformation on partially ordered sets, termed the \emph{stellahedral transform}, with notable features. It preserves the properties of being Eulerian, Cohen--Maca…

There are matroid toric ideals without quadratic Gröbner bases

Jesús A. De Loera, Luis Ferroni, Santiago Morales +1

Our paper shows that if a matroid contains the Fano plane or its dual as a minor, then its toric ideal does not have any quadratic Gröbner basis. More than 25 years ago, Hibi, Herz…

A master theorem for topological zeta functions of matroids

Luis Ferroni, Lorenzo Vecchi

We study the topological zeta function of a loopless matroid and its Möbius transform. We provide a novel and manifest description (a ``Master Theorem'') for both func…

Dual Chow polynomials of matroids and posets

Giovanni Caiolo, Luis Ferroni, Elena Hoster

We introduce and study dual Chow functions associated to kernels in incidence algebras of weakly ranked posets. Given a kernel, its dual Chow function is defined as the Chow functi…

Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials of Dowling geometries

Luis Ferroni, Matt Larson

We give a concrete combinatorial interpretation of the coefficients of the Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials of Dowling geometries, a family of matroids which generalizes braid matroids…

Matroid analogues of Gal's conjecture

Basile Coron, Luis Ferroni, Shiyue Li

Well-known conjectures of Charney--Davis, Gal, and Nevo--Petersen predict increasingly strong positivity phenomena for the -vectors of flag simplicial spheres. In this paper, we…

The Poincaré polynomial of the type B analogue of

Luis Ferroni, Roberto Pagaria, Lorenzo Vecchi

We establish formulas for the Poincaré polynomial of the type B analogue of the Deligne--Knudsen--Mumford moduli space of rational curves with marked points, providing type B c…

Structural properties of nested set complexes

Basile Coron, Luis Ferroni, Shiyue Li

We study structural and topological properties of nested set complexes of matroids with arbitrary building sets, proving that these complexes are vertex decomposable and admit conv…
