International audience To a word $w$, we associate the rational function $\Psi_w = \prod (x_{w_i} - x_{w_{i+1}})^{-1}$. The main object, introduced by C. Greene to generalize identities linked to Murnaghan-Nakayama rule, is a sum of its images by certain permutations of the variables. The sets of permutations that we consider are the linear extensions of oriented graphs. We explain how to compute this rational function, using the combinatorics of the graph $G$. We also establish a link between an algebraic property of the rational function (the factorization of the numerator) and a combinatorial property of the graph (the existence of a disconnecting chain). À un mot $w$, nous associons la fonction rationnelle $\Psi_w = \prod (x_{w_i} - x_{w_{i+1}})^{-1}$. L'objet principal, introduit par C. Greene pour généraliser des identités rationnelles liées à la règle de Murnaghan-Nakayama, est une somme de ses images par certaines permutations des variables. Les ensembles de permutations considérés sont les extensions linéaires des graphes orientés. Nous expliquons comment calculer cette fonction rationnelle à partir de la combinatoire du graphe $G$. Nous établissons ensuite un lien entre une propriété algébrique de la fonction rationnelle (la factorisation du numérateur) et une propriété combinatoire du graphe (l'existence d'une chaîne le déconnectant).

International audience Exceptional sequences are certain ordered sequences of quiver representations. We use noncrossing edge-labeled trees in a disk with boundary vertices (expanding on T. Araya’s work) to classify exceptional sequences of representations of $Q$, the linearly ordered quiver with $n$ vertices. We also show how to use variations of this model to classify $c$-matrices of $Q$, to interpret exceptional sequences as linear extensions, and to give a simple bijection between exceptional sequences and certain chains in the lattice of noncrossing partitions. In the case of $c$-matrices, we also give an interpretation of $c$-matrix mutation in terms of our noncrossing trees with directed edges. Les suites exceptionnelles sont certaines suites ordonnées de représentations de carquois. Nous utilisons des arbres aux arêtes étiquetés et aux sommets dans le bord d’un disque (expansion sur le travail de T. Araya) pour classifier les suites exceptionnelles de représentations du carquois linéairement ordonné à $n$ sommets. Nous exploitons des variations de ce modèle pour classifier les $c$-matrices dudit carquois, pour interpréter les suites exceptionnelles comme des extensions linéaires, et pour donner une bijection élémentaire entre les suites exceptionnelles et certaines chaînes dans le réseau des partitions sans croisement. Dans le cas des $c$-matrices, nous donnons également une interprétation de la mutation des $c$-matrices en termes des arbres sans croisement aux arêtes orientés.

International audience We present a family of simplicial complexes called \emphmulti-cluster complexes. These complexes generalize the concept of cluster complexes, and extend the notion of multi-associahedra of types ${A}$ and ${B}$ to general finite Coxeter groups. We study combinatorial and geometric properties of these objects and, in particular, provide a simple combinatorial description of the compatibility relation among the set of almost positive roots in the cluster complex. Nous présentons une famille de complexes simpliciaux appelés \emphcomplexes des multi-amas. Ces complexes généralisent le concept de complexes des amas et étendent la notion de multi-associaèdre de type ${A}$ et ${B}$ aux groupes de Coxeter finis. Nous étudions des propriétés combinatoires et géométriques de ces objets et, en particulier nous fournissons une description combinatoire simple de la relation de compatibilité sur l'ensemble des racines presque positives du complexe des amas.

Exceptional sequences are certain sequences of quiver representations.  We introduce a class of objects called strand diagrams and use these to classify exceptional sequences of representations of a quiver whose underlying graph is a type $\mathbb{A}_n$ Dynkin diagram. We also use variations of these objects to classify $c$-matrices of such quivers, to interpret exceptional sequences as linear extensions of explicitly constructed posets, and to give a simple bijection between exceptional sequences and certain saturated chains in the lattice of noncrossing partitions.

Combinatorics International audience We consider the family of rational functions ψw= ∏( xwi - xwi+1 )-1 indexed by words with no repetition. We study the combinatorics of the sums ΨP of the functions ψw when w describes the linear extensions of a given poset P. In particular, we point out the connexions between some transformations on posets and elementary operations on the fraction ΨP. We prove that the denominator of ΨP has a closed expression in terms of the Hasse diagram of P, and we compute its numerator in some special cases. We show that the computation of ΨP can be reduced to the case of bipartite posets. Finally, we compute the numerators associated to some special bipartite graphs as Schubert polynomials.

International audience The purpose of this paper is to present an algorithm which generates linear extensions for a generalized Young diagram, in the sense of D. Peterson and R. A. Proctor, with uniform probability. This gives a proof of a D. Peterson's hook formula for the number of reduced decompositions of a given minuscule elements. \par Le but de ce papier est présenter un algorithme qui produit des extensions linéaires pour un Young diagramme généralisé dans le sens de D. Peterson et R. A. Proctor, avec probabilité constante. Cela donne une preuve de la hook formule d'un D. Peterson pour le nombre de décompositions réduites d'un éléments minuscules donné.

International audience In his study of Kazhdan-Lusztig cells in affine type A, Shi has introduced an affine analog of Robinson- Schensted correspondence. We generalize the Matrix-Ball Construction of Viennot and Fulton to give a more combi- natorial realization of Shi's algorithm. As a biproduct, we also give a way to realize the affine correspondence via the usual Robinson-Schensted bumping algorithm. Next, inspired by Honeywill, we extend the algorithm to a bijection between extended affine symmetric group and triples (P, Q, ρ) where P and Q are tabloids and ρ is a dominant weight. The weights ρ get a natural interpretation in terms of the Affine Matrix-Ball Construction. Finally, we prove that fibers of the inverse map possess a Weyl group symmetry, explaining the dominance condition on weights.

International audience This paper is devoted to the explicit computation of generating series for the connection coefficients of two commutative subalgebras of the group algebra of the symmetric group, the class algebra and the double coset algebra. As shown by Hanlon, Stanley and Stembridge (1992), these series gives the spectral distribution of some random matrices that are of interest to statisticians. Morales and Vassilieva (2009, 2011) found explicit formulas for these generating series in terms of monomial symmetric functions by introducing a bijection between partitioned hypermaps on (locally) orientable surfaces and some decorated forests and trees. Thanks to purely algebraic means, we recover the formula for the class algebra and provide a new simpler formula for the double coset algebra. As a salient ingredient, we compute an explicit formulation for zonal polynomials indexed by partitions of type $[a,b,1^{n-a-b}]$. Cet article est dédié au calcul explicite des séries génératrices des constantes de structure de deux sous-algèbres commutatives de l'algèbre de groupe du groupe symétrique, l'algèbre de classes et l'algèbre de double classe latérale. Tel que montrè par Hanlon, Stanley and Stembridge (1992), ces séries déterminent la distribution spectrale de certaines matrices aléatoires importantes en statistique. Morales et Vassilieva (2009, 2011) ont trouvè des formules explicites pour ces séries génératrices en termes des monômes symétriques en introduisant une bijection entre les hypercartes partitionnées sur des surfaces (localement) orientables et certains arbres et forêts décorées. Grâce à des moyens purement algébriques, nous retrouvons la formule pour l'algèbre de classe et déterminons une nouvelle formule plus simple pour l'algèbre de double classe latérale. En tant que point saillant de notre démonstration nous calculons une formulation explicite pour les polynômes zonaux indexés par des partitions de type $[a,b,1^{n-a-b}]$.

International audience We construct a type A(1) n−1 affine geometric crystal structure on the Grassmannian Gr(k, n). The tropicalization of this structure recovers the combinatorics of crystal operators on semistandard Young tableaux of rectangular shape (with n − k rows), including the affine crystal operator e 0. In particular, the promotion operation on these tableaux essentially corresponds to cyclically shifting the Plu ̈cker coordinates of the Grassmannian.

International audience A convex polyomino is $k$-$\textit{convex}$ if every pair of its cells can be connected by means of a $\textit{monotone path}$, internal to the polyomino, and having at most $k$ changes of direction. The number $k$-convex polyominoes of given semi-perimeter has been determined only for small values of $k$, precisely $k=1,2$. In this paper we consider the problem of enumerating a subclass of $k$-convex polyominoes, precisely the $k$-$\textit{convex parallelogram polyominoes}$ (briefly, $k$-$\textit{parallelogram polyominoes}$). For each $k \geq 1$, we give a recursive decomposition for the class of $k$-parallelogram polyominoes, and then use it to obtain the generating function of the class, which turns out to be a rational function. We are then able to express such a generating function in terms of the $\textit{Fibonacci polynomials}$. Un polyomino convexe est dit $k$-$\textit{convexe}$ lorsqu’on peut relier tout couple de cellules par un chemin monotone ayant au plus $k$ changements de direction. Le nombre de polyominos $k$-convexes n’est connu que pour les petites valeurs de $k = 1,2$. Dans cet article, nous énumérons la sous-classe des polyominos $k$-convexes qui sont également parallélogramme, que nous appelons $k$-$\textit{parallélogrammes}$. Nous donnons une décomposition récursive de la classe des polyominos $k$-parallélogrammes pour chaque $k$, et en déduisons la fonction génératrice, rationnelle, selon le demi-périmètre. Nous donnons enfin une expression de cette fonction génératrice en termes des $\textit{polynômes de Fibonacci}$.
