چکیده

We introduce an arithmetic version of the multivariate Tutte polynomial recently studied by Sokal, and a quasi-polynomial that interpolates between the two. We provide a generalized Fortuin-Kasteleyn representation for representable arithmetic matroids, with applications to arithmetic colorings and flows. We give a new proof of the positivity of the coefficients of the arithmetic Tutte polynomial in the more general framework of pseudo-arithmetic matroids. In the case of a representable arithmetic matroid, we provide a geometric interpretation of the coefficients of the arithmetic Tutte polynomial. Résumé.

Tutte polynomials of wheels via generating functions

We find an explicit expression of the Tutte polynomial of an $n$-fan. We also find a formula of the Tutte polynomial of an $n$-wheel in terms of the Tutte polynomial of $n$-fans. Finally, we give an alternative expression of the Tutte polynomial of an $n$-wheel and then prove the explicit formula for the Tutte polynomial of an $n$-wheel.

The arithmetic Tutte polynomials of the classical root systems

Many combinatorial and topological invariants of a hyperplane arrangement can be computed in terms of its Tutte polynomial. Similarly, many invariants of a hypertoric arrangement can be computed in terms of its arithmetic Tutte polynomial. We compute the arithmetic Tutte polynomials of the classical root systems An, Bn, Cn, and Dn with respect to their integer, root, and weight lattices. We do ...

On the tutte polynomial of benzenoid chains

The Tutte polynomial of a graph G, T(G, x,y) is a polynomial in two variables defined for every undirected graph contains information about how the graph is connected. In this paper a simple formula for computing Tutte polynomial of a benzenoid chain is presented.

On the Algebraic Complexity of Some Families of Coloured Tutte Polynomials

We investigate the coloured Tutte polynomial in Valiant’s algebraic framework of NP-completeness. Generalising the well known relationship between the Tutte polynomial and the partition function from the Ising model, we establish a reduction from the permanent to the coloured Tutte polynomial, thus showing that its evaluation is a VNP−complete problem.

Galois groups of multivariate Tutte polynomials

The multivariate Tutte polynomial ẐM of a matroid M is a generalization of the standard two-variable version, obtained by assigning a separate variable ve to each element e of the ground set E. It encodes the full structure of M . Let v = {ve}e∈E , let K be an arbitrary field, and suppose M is connected. We show that ẐM is irreducible over K(v), and give three self-contained proofs that the Gal...
