Full textThe algebras L(g,n,H) have been introduced by Alekseev-Grosse-Schomerus and Buffenoir-Roche in the middle of the 1990's, in the program of combinatorial quantization of the moduli space of flat G-connections over the surface S(g,n) of genus g with n open disks removed. The Hopf algebra H, called gauge algebra, was originally the quantum group U_q(g), with g = Lie(G). In this thesis we apply these algebras L(g,n,H) to low-dimensional topology (mapping class groups and skein algebras of surfaces), under the assumption that H is a finite dimensional factorizable ribbon Hopf algebra which is not necessarily semisimple, the guiding example of such a Hopf algebra being the restricted quantum group associated to sl(2) (at a 2p-th root of unity).First, we construct from L(g,n,H) a projective representation of the mapping class groups of S(g,0)D and of S(g,0) (D being an open disk). We provide formulas for the representations of Dehn twists generating the mapping class group; in particular these formulas allow us to show that our representation is equivalent to the one constructed by Lyubashenko-Majid and Lyubashenko via categorical methods. For the torus S(1,0) with the restricted quantum group associated to sl(2) for the gauge algebra, we compute explicitly the representation of SL(2,Z) using a suitable basis of the representation space and we determine the structure of this representation.Second, we introduce a diagrammatic description of L(g,n,H) which enables us to define in a very natural way the Wilson loop map W. This maps associates an element of L(g,n,H) to any link in (S(g,n)D) x [0,1] which is framed, oriented and colored by H-modules. When the gauge algebra is the restricted quantum group associated to sl(2), we use W and the representations of L(g,n,H) to construct representations of the skein algebras S_q(S(g,n)). For the torus S(1,0) we explicitly study this representation

Full textA rectangular representation of a plane graph G is a representation of G, where each vertex is drawn as a rectangle, such as two rectangles have to share some boundary if and only if exist an edge in G between the corresponding vertices. Also, the representation of G must form a rectangle and does not contain any holes, in other words, every point inside the formed rectangle must correspond to some vertex of G. A rectangular drawing of a plane graph H is a drawing of H, where all edges are drawn either in vertical or in horizontal. Also, every internal face is a rectangle and the edges which are incident in the external face define a rectangle. In this dissertation, we present the main studies in the literature for problems associated with the rectangular representation. We also present results for problems associated with rectangular drawing. Finally, we present the algorithm we developed to determine the coordinates of the vertices of a rectangular drawing when the orientation of the edges have been determined.

Full textThe subject of this thesis is the non-commutative generalization of some probabilistic results that occur in representation theory. The results of the thesis are divided into three different parts. In the first part of the thesis, we classify all unitary easy quantum groups whose intertwiner spaces are described by non-crossing partitions, and develop the Weingarten calculus on these quantum groups. As an application of the previous work, we recover the results of Diaconis and Shahshahani on the unitary group and extend those results to the free unitary group. In the second part of the thesis, we study the free wreath product. First, we study the free wreath product with the free symmetric group by giving a description of the intertwiner spaces: several probabilistic results are deduced from this description. Then, we relate the intertwiner spaces of a free wreath product with the free product of planar algebras, an object which has been defined by Bisch and Jones. This relation allows us to prove the conjecture of Banica and Bichon. In the last part of the thesis, we prove that the minimal and the Martin boundaries of a graph introduced by Gnedin and Olshanski are the same. In order to prove this, we give some precise estimates on the uniform standard filling of a large ribbon Young diagram. This yields several asymptotic results on the filling of large ribbon Young diagrams
Charles, Balthazar. "Combinatorics and computations : Cartan matrices of monoids & minimal elements of Shi arrangements." Electronic Thesis or Diss., université Paris-Saclay, 2023. http://www.theses.fr/2023UPASG063.
Full textThis thesis presents an investigation into two distinct combinatorial subjects: the effective computation of Cartan matrices in monoid representation theory and the exploration of properties of minimal elements in Shi arrangements of Coxeter groups. Although disparate, both of these research focuses share a commonality in the utilization of combinatorial methods and computer exploration either as an end in itself for the former or as a help to research for the latter. In the first part of the dissertation, we develop methods for the effective computation of character tables and Cartan matrices in monoid representation theory. To this end, we present an algorithm based on our results for the efficient computations of fixed points under a conjugacy-like action, with the goal to implement Thiéry's formula for the Cartan matrix from [Thiéry '12]. After a largely self-contained introduction to the necessary background, we present our results for fixed-point counting, as well as a new formula for the character table of finite monoids. We evaluate the performance of the resulting algorithms in terms of execution time and memory usage and find that they are more efficient than algorithms not specialized for monoids by orders of magnitude. We hope that the resulting (public) implementation will contribute to the monoid representation community by allowing previously impractical computations. The second part of the thesis focuses on the properties of minimal elements in Shi arrangements. The Shi arrangements were introduced in [Shi '87] and are the object of Conjecture 2 from [Dyer, Hohlweg '14]. Originally motivated by this conjecture, we present two results. Firstly, a direct proof in the case of rank 3 groups. Secondly, in the special case of Weyl groups, we give a description of the minimal elements of the Shi regions by extending a bijection from [Athanasiadis, Linusson '99] and [Armstrong, Reiner, Rhoades '15] between parking functions and Shi regions. This allows for the effective computation of the minimal elements. From the properties of this computation, we provide a type-free proof of the conjecture in Weyl groups as an application. These results reveal an intriguing interplay between the non-nesting and non-crossing worlds in the case of classical Weyl groups

Expressing numbers as fractions has been the subject of one’s education since antiquity. This paper shows how we can write the number 1 as the sum of uniquely behaved fractions called “unit fractions”, that is, fractions with 1 in the numerator and some natural counting number in the denominator. Counting the number of ways this can be done reveals certain properties about the prime numbers, and how they interact with each other, as well as pushes the boundaries of computing power.

Full textAlgebraic combinatorics is the research field that uses combinatorial methods and algorithms to study algebraic computation, and applies algebraic tools to combinatorial problems. One of the central topics of algebraic combinatorics is the study of permutations, interpreted in many different ways (as bijections, permutation matrices, words over integers, total orders on integers, vertices of the permutahedron…). This rich diversity of perspectives leads to the following generalizations of the symmetric group. On the geometric side, the symmetric group generated by simple transpositions is the canonical example of finite reflection groups, also called Coxeter groups. On the monoidal side, the simple transpositions become bubble sort operators that generate the 0-Hecke monoid, whose algebra is the specialization at q=0 of Iwahori’s q-deformation of the symmetric group. This thesis deals with two further generalizations of permutations. In the first part of this thesis, we first focus on partial permutations matrices, that is placements of pairwise non attacking rooks on a n by n chessboard, simply called rooks. Rooks generate the rook monoid, a generalization of the symmetric group. In this thesis we introduce and study the 0-Rook monoid, a generalization of the 0-Hecke monoid. Its algebra is a proper degeneracy at q = 0 of the q-deformed rook monoid of Solomon. We study fundamental monoidal properties of the 0-rook monoid (Green orders, lattice property of the R-order, J-triviality) which allow us to describe its representation theory (simple and projective modules, projectivity on the 0-Hecke monoid, restriction and induction along an inclusion map).Rook monoids are actually type A instances of the family of Renner monoids, which are completions of the Weyl groups (crystallographic Coxeter groups) for Zariski’s topology. In the second part of this thesis we extend our type A results to define and give a presentation of 0-Renner monoids in type B and D. This also leads to a presentation of the Renner monoids of type B and D, correcting a misleading presentation that appeared earlier in the litterature. As in type A we study the monoidal properties of the 0-Renner monoids of type B and D : they are still J-trivial but their R-order are not lattices anymore. We study nonetheless their representation theory and the restriction of projective modules over the corresponding 0-Hecke monoids. The third part of this thesis deals with different generalizations of permutations. In a recent series of papers, Châtel, Pilaud and Pons revisit the algebraic combinatorics of permutations (weak order, Malvenuto-Reutenauer Hopf algebra) in terms of the combinatorics of integer posets. This perspective encompasses as well the combinatorics of quotients of the weak order such as binary trees, binary sequences, and more generally the recent permutrees of Pilaud and Pons. We generalize the weak order on the elements of the Weyl groups. This enables us to describe the order on vertices of the permutahedra, generalized associahedra and cubes in the same unified context. These results are based on subtle properties of sums of roots in Weyl groups, and actually fail for non-crystallographic Coxeter groups

Full textThis thesis is focused on combinatorical representation theory of finitemonoids within the field of algebraic combinatorics.A monoid $M$ is a finite set endowed with a multiplication and a neutralelement. A representation of $M$ is a morphism from $M$ into the monoid ofmatrices $M_n(ck)$ where $ck$ is a field; in this work it will typically bereferred to as $ck = CC$.The results obtained in the last decades allows us to use representation theoryof groups, and combinatorics on preorders in order to explore representationtheory of finite monoides.In 1996, Krob and Thibon proved that the induction and restriction rules ofirreducible and projective representations of the tower of $0$-Hecke monoidsendows its ring of caracters with a Hopf algebra structure, isomorph to thenon-commutative symmetric functions Hopf algebra $ncsf$. This gives acategorification of $ncsf$, which is an interpretation of the non-commutativesymmetruc functions in the language of representation theory. This extends atheorem of Frobenius endowing the character ring of symmetric groups to theHopf algebra of symmetric functions. Since then a natural problem is tocategorify other Hopf algebras -- for instance the Planar Binary Tree algebraof Loday and Ronco -- by a tower of algebras.Guessing such a tower of algebra is a difficult problem in general.In this thesis we restrict ourselves to towers of monoids in order to have abetter control on its representations. This is quite natural as on one hand,this setup covers both previous fundamental examples, whereas $ncsf$cannot be categorified in the restricted set of tower of group algebras.In the first part of this work, we start with some results about representationtheory of towers of monoids. We then focus on categorification with towers ofsemilatices, for example the tower of permutohedrons. We categorify thealgebra, and cogebra structure of $fqsym$, but not the full Hopf algebrastructure with its dual. We then make a comprehensive search in order tocategorify $pbt$ with a tower of monoids. We show that under naturalhypothesis, there exists no tower of monoids satisfying the categorificationaxioms. Finally we show that in some sense, the tower of $0$-Hecke monoids isthe simplest tower categorifying $ncsf$.The second part of this work deals with parking functions, applying resultsfrom the first part. We first study the representation theory of non decreasingparking functions. We then present a joint work with Jean-Baptiste Priez on ageneralization of parking functions from Pitman and Stanley. To obtainenumeration formulas, we use a variant of the species theory which was moreefficient in our case.We used an action of $H_n(0)$ instead of the symmetric group and use theKrob-Thibon theorem to lift the character of this action into the Hopf algebraof non-commutative symmetric functions

Full textThis thesis is devoted to the study of quiver Hecke algebras and some generalisations of Iwahori-Hecke algebras. We begin with two results concerning quiver Hecke algebras, first when the quiver has several connected components and second when the quiver has an automorphism of finite order. We then recall an isomorphism of Brundan-Kleshchev and Rouquier between Ariki-Koike algebras and certain cyclotomic quiver Hecke algebras. From this, on the one hand we deduce that a well-known important Morita equivalence between Ariki--Koike algebras comes from an isomorphism, on the other hand we give a cyclotomic quiver Hecke-like presentation for the Hecke algebra of type G(r,p,n). We also generalise the isomorphism of Brundan-Kleshchev to prove that cyclotomic Yokonuma-Hecke algebras are particular cases of cyclotomic quiver Hecke algebras. Finally, we study a problem of algebraic combinatorics, related to the representation theory of Ariki-Koike algebras. Using the abacus representation of partitions and solving, via an existence theorem for binary matrices, a constrained optimisation problem with integer variables, we prove that a stuttering multiset of residues necessarily comes from a stuttering multipartition

Full textCluster algebras are integral domains with a particular combinatorial structure. This structure consists in thedata of a family of seeds linked together by an operation called mutation. Each seed consists in two parts : acluster and a quiver.Richardson open varieties are some strata of the flag variety associated to a simple linear algebraic groupof simply-laced type. These are the intersection of Schubert cells with respect to two opposite Borel subgroups.In [Lec16] a cluster subalgebra of maximal rank on the coordinate ring of an open Richardson variety has beenconstructed and this subalgebra is conjectured to be equal to the whole ring. The construction of this clusteralgebra comes from a Frobenius category C v,w of modules over the preprojective algebra, defined as the intersectionof two categories C w and C v already studied by Geiss, Leclerc, Schröer and Buan, Iyama, Reiten and Scott. Thebond between cluster algebras and cluster structures is given by the cluster character defined in [GLS06].In this thesis we build an algorithm which, given the parameters defining a Richardson open variety, computean explicit maximal rigid module of the associated Frobenius category and its quiver. This algorithm has aninitial seed for the cluster structure on C w defined by a representative w of an element w of the Weyl group as astarting datum. By a combinatorially defined sequence of mutation on this initial seed we obtain a maximal rigidmodule of C w which is, up to deletion of some direct summands is a maximal rigid module of C v,w . In addition,the subquiver of the mutated quiver is exactly the quiver of the endomorphism algebra of the C v,w -maximal rigidmodule, giving then the complete description of an initial seed for the cluster structure on C v,w
