چکیده

For any finite Coxeter group W of rank n we show that the order complex of the lattice of non-crossing partitions NC(W ) embeds as a chamber subcomplex into a spherical building of type An−1. We use this to give a new proof of the fact that the non-crossing partition lattice in type An is supersolvable for all n. Moreover, we show that in case Bn, this is only the case if n < 4. We also obtain a lower bound on the radius of the Hurwitz graph H(W ) in all types and re-prove that in type An the radius is ( n 2 ) .

Non-Crossing Partitions in Binary, Ordered and Motzkin Trees

Non-Crossing Tree partitions are newer mathematical objects that have recent applications in genetics and mathematical biology. We explore several interesting connections between these partitions and the more commonly studied non-crossing set partitions. While non-crossing set partitions are counted by the Catalan numbers, we prove that non-crossing tree partitions in Binary trees are counted b...

Combinatorial Statistics on Non-crossing Partitions

Four statistics, ls, rb, rs, and lb, previously studied on all partitions of { 1, 2, ..., n }, are applied to non-crossing partitions. We consider single and joint distributions of these statistics and prove equidistribution results. We obtain qand p, q-analogues of Catalan and Narayana numbers which refine the rank symmetry and unimodality of the lattice of non-crossing partitions. Two unimoda...

Convexity, Non–Crossing Tree Partitions and Independent Sets in Phylogenetic Trees

Non –crossing set partitions are counted by the Catalan numbers and have been extensively studied in mathematics. We introduce the concept of a non-crossing tree partition and then use generating functions to count the number non-crossing tree partitions in Ordered and Binary Phylogenetic trees. In addition, we explore the connection between convexity, tree partitions and independent sets. Last...

Non-crossing Partitions, Non-nesting Partitions and Coxeter Sortable Elements in Types a and B

First, we investigate a generalization of the area statistic on Dyck paths for all crystallographic reflection groups. In particular, we explore Dyck paths of type B together with an area statistic and a major index. Then, we construct bijections between non-nesting and reverse non-crossing partitions for types A and B. These bijections simultaneously send the area statistic and the major index...

Simply Generated Non-Crossing Partitions

We introduce and study the model of simply generated non-crossing partitions, which are, roughly speaking, chosen at random according to a sequence of weights. This framework encompasses the particular case of uniform non-crossing partitions with constraints on their block sizes. Our main tool is a bijection between non-crossing partitions and plane trees, which maps such simply generated non-c...
