Proof Orders for Decreasing Diagrams
We present and compare some well-founded proof orders for decreasing diagrams. These proof orders order a conversion above another conversion if the latter is obtained by filling any peak in the former by a (locally) decreasing diagram. Therefore each such proof order entails the decreasing diagrams technique for proving confluence. The proof orders differ with respect to monotonicity and complexity. Our results are developed in the setting of involutive monoids. We extend these results to obtain a decreasing diagrams technique for confluence modulo
Confluence by Decreasing Diagrams -- Formalized
This paper presents a formalization of decreasing diagrams in the theorem
prover Isabelle. It discusses mechanical proofs showing that any locally
decreasing abstract rewrite system is confluent. The valley and the conversion
version of decreasing diagrams are considered.Comment: 17 pages; valley and conversion version; RTA 201
Termination orders for 3-dimensional rewriting
This paper studies 3-polygraphs as a framework for rewriting on
two-dimensional words. A translation of term rewriting systems into
3-polygraphs with explicit resource management is given, and the respective
computational properties of each system are studied. Finally, a convergent
3-polygraph for the (commutative) theory of Z/2Z-vector spaces is given. In
order to prove these results, it is explained how to craft a class of
termination orders for 3-polygraphs.Comment: 30 pages, 35 figure
Poset structures in Boij-S\"oderberg theory
Boij-S\"oderberg theory is the study of two cones: the cone of cohomology
tables of coherent sheaves over projective space and the cone of standard
graded minimal free resolutions over a polynomial ring. Each cone has a
simplicial fan structure induced by a partial order on its extremal rays. We
provide a new interpretation of these partial orders in terms of the existence
of nonzero homomorphisms, for both the general and the equivariant
constructions. These results provide new insights into the families of sheaves
and modules at the heart of Boij-S\"oderberg theory: supernatural sheaves and
Cohen-Macaulay modules with pure resolutions. In addition, our results strongly
suggest the naturality of these partial orders, and they provide tools for
extending Boij-S\"oderberg theory to other graded rings and projective
varieties.Comment: 23 pages; v2: Added Section 8, reordered previous section
Counting (3+1) - Avoiding permutations
A poset is {\it (\3+\1)-free} if it contains no induced subposet isomorphic
to the disjoint union of a 3-element chain and a 1-element chain. These posets
are of interest because of their connection with interval orders and their
appearance in the (\3+\1)-free Conjecture of Stanley and Stembridge. The
dimension 2 posets are exactly the ones which have an associated
permutation where in if and only if as integers and
comes before in the one-line notation of . So we say that a
permutation is {\it (\3+\1)-free} or {\it (\3+\1)-avoiding} if its
poset is (\3+\1)-free. This is equivalent to avoiding the permutations
2341 and 4123 in the language of pattern avoidance. We give a complete
structural characterization of such permutations. This permits us to find their
generating function.Comment: 17 page
