Bases: Parent, UniqueRepresentation

The Möbius algebra of a lattice.

Let \(L\) be a lattice. The Möbius algebra \(M_L\) was originally constructed by Solomon [Solomon67] and has a natural basis \(\{ E_x \mid x \in L \}\) with multiplication given by \(E_x \cdot E_y = E_{x \vee y}\). Moreover this has a basis given by orthogonal idempotents \(\{ I_x \mid x \in L \}\) (so \(I_x I_y = \delta_{xy} I_x\) where \(\delta\) is the Kronecker delta) related to the natural basis by

\[I_x = \sum_{x \leq y} \mu_L(x, y) E_y,\]

where \(\mu_L\) is the Möbius function of \(L\).

Note

We use the join \(\vee\) for our multiplication, whereas [Greene73] and [Etienne98] define the Möbius algebra using the meet \(\wedge\). This is done for compatibility with QuantumMoebiusAlgebra.

Bases: Parent, UniqueRepresentation

The quantum Möbius algebra of a lattice.

Let \(L\) be a lattice, and we define the quantum Möbius algebra \(M_L(q)\) as the algebra with basis \(\{ E_x \mid x \in L \}\) with multiplication given by

\[E_x E_y = \sum_{z \geq a \geq x \vee y} \mu_L(a, z) q^{\operatorname{crk} a} E_z,\]

where \(\mu_L\) is the Möbius function of \(L\) and \(\operatorname{crk}\) is the corank function (i.e., \(\operatorname{crk} a = \operatorname{rank} L - \operatorname{rank}\) a). At \(q = 1\), this reduces to the multiplication formula originally given by Solomon.

The characteristic basis \(\{ C_x \mid x \in L \}\) of \(M_L\) for some lattice \(L\) is defined by

\[C_x = \sum_{a \geq x} P(F^x; q) E_a,\]

where \(F^x = \{ y \in L \mid y \geq x \}\) is the principal order filter of \(x\) and \(P(F^x; q)\) is the characteristic polynomial of the (sub)poset \(F^x\).

class E(M, prefix='E')[source]#

Bases: BasisAbstract

\[B_x = \sum_{y \geq x} P_{x,y}(q) E_a,\]
