Cambrian fans

Nathan Reading, David E. Speyer (2009)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

For a finite Coxeter group W and a Coxeter element c of W ; the c -Cambrian fan is a coarsening of the fan defined by the reflecting hyperplanes of W . Its maximal cones are naturally indexed by the c -sortable elements of W . The main result of this paper is that the known bijection cl c between c -sortable elements and c -clusters induces a combinatorial isomorphism of fans. In particular, the c -Cambrian fan is combinatorially isomorphic to the normal fan of the generalized associahedron for W . The rays...

Combinatorial topology and the global dimension of algebras arising in combinatorics

Stuart Margolis, Franco Saliola, Benjamin Steinberg (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

In a highly influential paper, Bidigare, Hanlon and Rockmore showed that a number of popular Markov chains are random walks on the faces of a hyperplane arrangement. Their analysis of these Markov chains took advantage of the monoid structure on the set of faces. This theory was later extended by Brown to a larger class of monoids called left regular bands. In both cases, the representation theory of these monoids played a prominent role. In particular, it was used to compute the spectrum of the...

Construction of Mendelsohn designs by using quasigroups of ( 2 , q ) -varieties

Lidija Goračinova-Ilieva, Smile Markovski (2016)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Let q be a positive integer. An algebra is said to have the property ( 2 , q ) if all of its subalgebras generated by two distinct elements have exactly q elements. A variety 𝒱 of algebras is a variety with the property ( 2 , q ) if every member of 𝒱 has the property ( 2 , q ) . Such varieties exist only in the case of q prime power. By taking the universes of the subalgebras of any finite algebra of a variety with the property ( 2 , q ) , 2 < q , blocks of Steiner system of type ( 2 , q ) are obtained. The stated correspondence between Steiner...
