Chain characteristic polynomials of matroids
Gary Lazzaro, Max Wakefield, Jason Weiss
In this note we introduce a family of polynomials on a matroid derived from chain Tutte polynomials which generalize the classic and ubiquitous characteristic polynomial. We show t…
Chain Tutte polynomials
Max Wakefield
The Tutte polynomial and Derksen's -invariant are the universal deletion-contraction and valuative matroid and polymatroid invariants, respectively. There are only a h…
A non-associative incidence near-ring with a generalized Möbius function
John Johnson, Max Wakefield
There is a convolution product on 3-variable partial flag functions of a locally finite poset that produces a generalized Möbius function. Under the product this generalized Möbius…
Derivation degree sequences of non-free arrangements
Max Wakefield
In this note we study the logarithmic derivation module of a non-free arrangement. We prove a generalized addition theorem for all arrangements. This addition theorem allows us to…
A user's guide to the topological Tverberg conjecture
A. Skopenkov
The topological Tverberg conjecture was considered a central unsolved problem of topological combinatorics. The conjecture asserts that for any integers and any continuous…
Intersection cohomology of the symmetric reciprocal plane
Nicholas Proudfoot, Max Wakefield, Benjamin Young
We compute the Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial of the uniform matroid of rank n-1 on n elements by proving that the i-th coefficient of is equal to the number of ways to choose i non-in…
