It is a well-known theorem of Deodhar that the Bruhat ordering of a Coxeter group is the conjunction of its projections onto quotients by maximal parabolic subgroups. Similarly, the Bruhat order is also the conjunction of a larger number of simpler quotients obtained by projecting onto two-sided (i.e., "double") quotients by pairs of maximal parabolic subgroups. Each one-sided quotient may be represented as an orbit in the reflection representation, and each double quotient corresponds to the portion of an orbit on the positive side of certain hyperplanes. In some cases, these orbit representations are "tight" in the sense that the root system induces an ordering on the orbit that yields effective coordinates for the Bruhat order, and hence also provides upper bounds for the order dimension. In this paper, we (1) provide a general characterization of tightness for one-sided quotients, (2) classify all tight one-sided quotients of finite Coxeter groups, and (3) classify all tight double quotients of affine Weyl groups.

Coxeter Graph

Parabolic subgroups $W_I$ of Coxeter systems $(W,S)$, as well as their ordinary and double quotients $W / W_I$ and $W_I \backslash W / W_J$, appear in many contexts in combinatorics and Lie theory, including the geometry and topology of generalized flag varieties and the symmetry groups of regular polytopes. The set of ordinary cosets $w W_I$, for $I \subseteq S$, forms the Coxeter complex of $W$, and is well-studied. In this article we look at a less studied object: the set of all double cosets $W_I w W_J$ for $I, J \subseteq S$. Double cosets are not uniquely presented by triples $(I,w,J)$. We describe what we call the lex-minimal presentation, and prove that there exists a unique such object for each double coset. Lex-minimal presentations are then used to enumerate double cosets via a finite automaton depending on the Coxeter graph for $(W,S)$. As an example, we present a formula for the number of parabolic double cosets with a fixed minimal element when $W$ is the symmetric group $S_n$ (in this case, parabolic subgroups are also known as Young subgroups). Our formula is almost always linear time computable in $n$, and we show how it can be generalized to any Coxeter group with little additional work. We spell out formulas for all finite and affine Weyl groups in the case that $w$ is the identity element.

Weak Bruhat Order

AbstractIn this paper, we investigate various properties of strong and weak twisted Bruhat orders on a Coxeter group. In particular, we prove that any twisted strong Bruhat order on an affine Weyl group is locally finite, strengthening a result of Dyer [Quotients of twisted Bruhat orders, J. Algebra163 (1994), 3, 861–879]. We also show that, for a non-finite and non-cofinite biclosed set 𝐵 in the positive system of an affine root system with rank greater than 2, the set of elements having a fixed 𝐵-twisted length is infinite. This implies that the twisted strong and weak Bruhat orders have an infinite antichain in those cases. Finally, we show that twisted weak Bruhat order can be applied to the study of the tope poset of an infinite oriented matroid arising from an affine root system.

We give a quadratic lower bound and a cubic upper bound on the order dimension of the Bruhat (or strong) ordering of the affine Coxeter group ${\tilde{A}}_n$. We also demonstrate that the order dimension of the Bruhat order is infinite for a large class of Coxeter groups.

Abstract We notice a remarkable connection between the Bazhanov-Sergeev solution of Zamolodchikov tetrahedron equation and certain well-known cluster algebra expression. The tetrahedron transformation is then identified with a sequence of four mutations. As an application of the new formalism, we show how to construct an integrable system with the spectral curve with arbitrary symmetric Newton polygon. Finally, we embed this integrable system into the double Bruhat cell of a Poisson-Lie group, show how triangular decomposition can be used to extend our approach to the general non-symmetric Newton polygons, and prove the Lemma which classifies conjugacy classes in double affine Weyl groups of A-type by decorated Newton polygons.

Supervaluationism is often described as the most popular semantic treatment of indeterminacy. There’s little consensus, however, about how to fill out the bare-bones idea to include a characterization of logical consequence. The paper explores one methodology for choosing between the logics: pick a logic that norms belief as classical consequence is standardly thought to do. The main focus of the paper considers a variant of standard supervaluational, on which we can characterize degrees of determinacy. It applies the methodology above to focus on degree logic. This is developed first in a basic, single-premise case; and then extended to the multipremise case, and to allow degrees of consequence. The metatheoretic properties of degree logic are set out. On the positive side, the logic is supraclassical—all classical valid sequents are degree logic valid. Strikingly, metarules such as cut and conjunction introduction fail.

The Eulerian polynomial $A_n(t)$ enumerating descents in $\mathfrak{S}_n$ is known to be gamma positive for all $n$. When enumeration is done over the type B and type D Coxeter groups, the type B and type D Eulerian polynomials are also known to be gamma positive for all $n$. We consider $A_n^+(t)$ and $A_n^-(t)$, the polynomials which enumerate descents in the alternating group $\mathcal{A}_n$ and in $\mathfrak{S}_n - \mathcal{A}_n$ respectively.  We show the following results about $A_n^+(t)$ and $A_n^-(t)$: both polynomials are gamma positive iff $n \equiv 0,1$ (mod 4). When $n \equiv 2,3$ (mod 4), both polynomials are not palindromic. When $n \equiv 2$ (mod 4), we show that {\sl two} gamma positive summands add up to give $A_n^+(t)$ and $A_n^-(t)$. When $n \equiv 3$ (mod 4), we show that {\sl three} gamma positive summands add up to give both $A_n^+(t)$ and $A_n^-(t)$.  We show similar gamma positivity results about the descent based type B and type D Eulerian polynomials when enumeration is done over the positive elements in the respective Coxeter groups. We also show that the polynomials considered in this work are unimodal.
