Regular Schur labeled skew shape posets and their 0-Hecke modules

Assuming Stanley's $P$-partition conjecture holds, the regular Schur labeled skew shape posets with underlying set $\{1,2,\ldots, n\}$ are precisely the posets $P$ such that the $P$-partition generating function is symmetric and the set of linear extensions of $P$, denoted $\Sigma_L(P)$, is a left weak Bruhat interval in the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$. We describe the permutations in $\Sigma_L(P)$ in terms of reading words of standard Young tableaux when $P$ is a regular Schur labeled skew shape poset, and classify $\Sigma_L(P)$'s up to descent-preserving isomorphism as $P$ ranges over regular Schur labeled skew shape posets. The results obtained are then applied to classify the $0$-Hecke modules $\mathsf{M}_P$ associated with regular Schur labeled skew shape posets $P$ up to isomorphism. Then we characterize regular Schur labeled skew shape posets as the posets whose linear extensions form a dual plactic-closed subset of $\mathfrak{S}_n$. Using this characterization, we construct distinguished filtrations of $\mathsf{M}_P$ with respect to the Schur basis when $P$ is a regular Schur labeled skew shape poset. Further issues concerned with the classification and decomposition of the $0$-Hecke modules $\mathsf{M}_P$ are also discussed.Comment: 44 page

Poset modules of the 00-Hecke algebras and related quasisymmetric power sum expansions

Duchamp--Hivert--Thibon introduced the construction of a right $H_n(0)$-module, denoted as $M_P$, for any partial order $P$ on the set $[n]$. This module is defined by specifying a suitable action of $H_n(0)$ on the set of linear extensions of $P$. In this paper, we refer to this module as the poset module associated with $P$. Firstly, we show that $\bigoplus_{n \ge 0} G_0(\mathscr{P}(n))$ has a Hopf algebra structure that is isomorphic to the Hopf algebra of quasisymmetric functions, where $\mathscr{P}(n)$ is the full subcategory of $\textbf{mod-}H_n(0)$ whose objects are direct sums of finitely many isomorphic copies of poset modules and $G_0(\mathscr{P}(n))$ is the Grothendieck group of $\mathscr{P}(n)$. We also demonstrate how (anti-)automorphism twists interact with these modules, the induction product and restrictions. Secondly, we investigate the (type 1) quasisymmetric power sum expansion of some quasi-analogues $Y_\alpha$ of Schur functions, where $\alpha$ is a composition. We show that they can be expressed as the sum of the $P$-partition generating functions of specific posets, which allows us to utilize the result established by Liu--Weselcouch. Additionally, we provide a new algorithm for obtaining these posets. Using these findings, for the dual immaculate function and the extended Schur function, we express the coefficients appearing in the quasisymmetric power sum expansions in terms of border strip tableaux.Comment: 42 page

Temperature dependence of Mott transition in VO_2 and programmable critical temperature sensor

The temperature dependence of the Mott metal-insulator transition (MIT) is studied with a VO_2-based two-terminal device. When a constant voltage is applied to the device, an abrupt current jump is observed with temperature. With increasing applied voltages, the transition temperature of the MIT current jump decreases. We find a monoclinic and electronically correlated metal (MCM) phase between the abrupt current jump and the structural phase transition (SPT). After the transition from insulator to metal, a linear increase in current (or conductivity) is shown with temperature until the current becomes a constant maximum value above T_{SPT}=68^oC. The SPT is confirmed by micro-Raman spectroscopy measurements. Optical microscopy analysis reveals the absence of the local current path in micro scale in the VO_2 device. The current uniformly flows throughout the surface of the VO_2 film when the MIT occurs. This device can be used as a programmable critical temperature sensor.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure

In Vitro Chemosensitivity Using the Histoculture Drug Response Assay in Human Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

The choice of chemotherapeutic drugs to treat patients with epithelial ovarian cancer has not depended on individual patient characteristics. We have investigated the correlation between in vitro chemosensitivity, as determined by the histoculture drug response assay (HDRA), and clinical responses in epithelial ovarian cancer. Fresh tissue samples were obtained from 79 patients with epithelial ovarian cancer. The sensitivity of these samples to 11 chemotherapeutic agents was tested using the HDRA method according to established methods, and we analyzed the results retrospectively. HDRA showed that they were more chemosensitive to carboplatin, topotecan and belotecan, with inhibition rates of 49.2%, 44.7%, and 39.7%, respectively, than to cisplatin, the traditional drug of choice in epithelial ovarian cancer. Among the 37 patients with FIGO stage Ⅲ/Ⅳ serous adenocarcinoma who were receiving carboplatin combined with paclitaxel, those with carboplatin-sensitive samples on HDRA had a significantly longer median disease-free interval than patients with carboplatin- resistant samples (23.2 vs. 13.8 months, p＜0.05), but median overall survival did not differ significantly (60.4 vs. 37.3 months, p＝0.621). In conclusion, this study indicates that HDRA could provide useful information for designing individual treatment strategies in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer

The projective cover of tableau-cyclic indecomposable Hn(0)H_n(0)-modules

Let $\alpha$ be a composition of $n$ and $\sigma$ a permutation in $\mathfrak{S}_{\ell(\alpha)}$. This paper concerns the projective covers of $H_n(0)$-modules $\mathcal{V}_\alpha$, $X_\alpha$ and $\mathbf{S}^\sigma_{\alpha}$, which categorify the dual immaculate quasisymmetric function, the extended Schur function, and the quasisymmetric Schur function when $\sigma$ is the identity, respectively. First, we show that the projective cover of $\mathcal{V}_\alpha$ is the projective indecomposable module $\mathbf{P}_\alpha$ due to Norton, and $X_\alpha$ and the $\phi$-twist of the canonical submodule $\mathbf{S}^{\sigma}_{\beta,C}$ of $\mathbf{S}^\sigma_{\beta}$ for $(\beta,\sigma)$'s satisfying suitable conditions appear as $H_n(0)$-homomorphic images of $\mathcal{V}_\alpha$. Second, we introduce a combinatorial model for the $\phi$-twist of $\mathbf{S}^\sigma_{\alpha}$ and derive a series of surjections starting from $\mathbf{P}_\alpha$ to the $\phi$-twist of $\mathbf{S}^{\mathrm{id}}_{\alpha,C}$. Finally, we construct the projective cover of every indecomposable direct summand $\mathbf{S}^\sigma_{\alpha, E}$ of $\mathbf{S}^\sigma_{\alpha}$. As a byproduct, we give a characterization of triples $(\sigma, \alpha, E)$ such that the projective cover of $\mathbf{S}^\sigma_{\alpha, E}$ is indecomposable.Comment: 41 page

Homological properties of 0-Hecke modules for dual immaculate quasisymmetric functions

Let $n$ be a nonnegative integer. For each composition $\alpha$ of $n$, Berg $\textit{et al.}$ introduced a cyclic indecomposable $H_n(0)$-module $\mathcal{V}_\alpha$ with a dual immaculate quasisymmetric function as the image of the quasisymmetric characteristic. In this paper, we study $\mathcal{V}_\alpha$'s from the homological viewpoint. To be precise, we construct a minimal projective presentation of $\mathcal{V}_\alpha$ and a minimal injective presentation of $\mathcal{V}_\alpha$ as well. Using them, we compute ${\rm Ext}^1_{H_n(0)}(\mathcal{V}_\alpha, {\bf F}_\beta)$ and ${\rm Ext}^1_{H_n(0)}( {\bf F}_\beta, \mathcal{V}_\alpha)$, where ${\bf F}_\beta$ is the simple $H_n(0)$-module attached to a composition $\beta$ of $n$. We also compute ${\rm Ext}_{H_n(0)}^i(\mathcal{V}_\alpha,\mathcal{V}_{\beta})$ when $i=0,1$ and $\beta \le_l \alpha$, where $\le_l$ represents the lexicographic order on compositions.Comment: 44 pages, to be published in Forum of Math: Sigm
