Restrictions of the dot action representation

Hsin-Chieh Liao, Martha Precup, John Shareshian

Regular semisimple Hessenberg varieties are subvarieties of flag varieties defined for any reductive group. Their cohomology carries a representation of the associated Weyl group,…

Infinitely many finite simple groups of Lie type are not generated invariably by two elements of prime order

Robert M. Guralnick, John Shareshian, Russ Woodroofe

We show that there are infinitely many k for which Sp_{2k}(2) is not generated invariably by two elements of prime order.

Sprout Symmetric Functions: Part 1

Tewodros Amdeberhan, John Shareshian, Richard P. Stanley

A \emph{sprout sequence} is a sequence $\frakr=(R_0=1,R_1,R_2,\dots)$ of symmetric functions in the variables $\bmx=(x_1,x_2,\dots)$ over a field generated from a power series…

Posets of decompositions in spherical buildings

Kevin Ivan Piterman, John Shareshian, Volkmar Welker

We propose definitions of the common bases complex, the poset of decompositions, and the poset of partial decompositions for arbitrary spherical buildings. We show that the poset o…

Counting in nilpotent injectors and Carter subgroups

Stefanos Aivazidis, Maria Loukaki, John Shareshian

We investigate number-theoretic properties of the collection of nilpotent injectors or nilpotent projectors containing certain subgroups of finite soluble (or -constr…

Gamma vectors of partitioned permutohedra

Tatsuya Horiguchi, Mikiya Masuda, Takashi Sato +2

We determine that -vectors of partitioned permutohedra, thereby generalizing a result of Foata and Schützenberger. Our result is closely related to a result of Athanasiadis on t…
