We consider a tower of generalized rook monoid algebras over the field C of complex numbers and observe that the Bratteli diagram associated to this tower is a simple graph. We construct simple modules and describe Jucys–Murphy elements for generalized rook monoid algebras. Over an algebraically closed field k of positive characteristic p , utilizing Jucys–Murphy elements of rook monoid algebras, for 0 ≤ i ≤ p − 1 we define the corresponding i -restriction and i -induction functors along with two extra functors. On the direct sum G C of the Grothendieck groups of module categories over rook monoid algebras over k , these functors induce an action of the tensor product of the universal enveloping algebra U ( b sl p ( C )) and the monoid algebra C [ B ] of the bicyclic monoid B . Furthermore, we prove that G C is isomorphic to the tensor product of the basic representation of U ( b sl p ( C )) and the unique infinite-dimensional simple module over C [ B ], and also exhibit that G C is a bialgebra. Under some natural restrictions on the characteristic of k , we outline the corresponding result for generalized rook monoids.","PeriodicalId":48483,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Combinatorial Algebra","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42904951","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Applying our construction to nonlinear oriented matroid programs provides a large new class of algebras. For Euclidean oriented matroid programs, the resulting algebras are quasi-hereditary and Koszul, as in the linear setting. In the non-Euclidean case, we obtain algebras that are not quasi-hereditary and not known to be Koszul, but still have a natural class of standard modules and satisfy numerical analogues of quasi-heredity and Koszulity on the level of graded Grothendieck groups.","PeriodicalId":48483,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Combinatorial Algebra","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44897016","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This iterated discriminant is easier to compute and we prove that it is always divisible by the mixed discriminant. We show that tangent intersections can be computed via iteration if and only if the singular locus of a corresponding dual variety has sufficiently high codimension.

These graphs are subject to suitable conditions on their Kempe equivalence Tait coloring classes and include the dodecahedron graph.

We show that, for every such group $T$, the number of essential subsets of any additive basis is finite, and also that the number of essential subsets of cardinality $k$ contained in an additive basis of order at most $h$ can be bounded in terms of $h$ and $k$ alone. These results extend the reach of two theorems, one due to Deschamps and Farhi and the other to Hegarty, bearing upon $mathbf{N}$. Also, using invariant means, we address a classical problem, initiated by ErdH{o}s and Graham and then generalized by Nash and Nathanson both in the case of $mathbf{N}$, of estimating the maximal order $X_T(h,k)$ that a basis of cocardinality $k$ contained in an additive basis of order at most $h$ can have. Among other results, we prove that $X_T(h,k)=O(h^{2k+1})$ for every integer $k ge 1$. This result is new even in the case where $k=1$. Besides the maximal order $X_T(h,k)$, the typical order $S_T(h,k)$ is also studied. Our methods actually apply to a wider class of infinite abelian semigroups, thus unifying in a single axiomatic frame the theory of additive bases in $mathbf{N}$ and in abelian groups.","PeriodicalId":48483,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Combinatorial Algebra","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2020-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43578896","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
