Knutson-Tao Puzzles#

This module implements a generic algorithm to solve Knutson-Tao puzzles. An instance of this class will be callable: the arguments are the labels of north-east and north-west sides of the puzzle boundary; the output is the list of the fillings of the puzzle with the specified pieces.

Acknowledgements#

This code was written during Sage Days 45 at ICERM with Franco Saliola, Anne Schilling, and Avinash Dalal in discussions with Allen Knutson. The code was tested afterwards by Liz Beazley and Ed Richmond.

Todo

Functionality to add:

  • plotter will not plot edge labels higher than 2; e.g. in BK puzzles, the labels are 1,…, n and so in 3-step examples, none of the edge labels with 3 appear

  • we should also have a 3-step puzzle pieces constructor, taken from p22 of arXiv math/0610538

  • implement the bijection from puzzles to tableaux; see for example R. Vakil, A geometric Littlewood-Richardson rule, arXiv math/0302294 or K. Purbhoo, Puzzles, Tableaux and Mosaics, arXiv 0705.1184.

sage.combinat.knutson_tao_puzzles.BK_pieces(max_letter)[source]#

The puzzle pieces used in computing the Belkale-Kumar coefficients for any partial flag variety in type \(A\).

There are two types of puzzle pieces:

  • a triangle, with each edge labeled with the same letter;

  • a rhombus, with edges labeled \(i\), \(j\), \(i\), \(j\) in clockwise order with \(i > j\).

Each of these is rotated by 60 degrees, but not reflected.

We model the rhombus pieces as two triangles: a delta piece north-west label \(i\), north-east label \(j\) and south label \(i(j)\); and a nabla piece with south-east label \(i\), south-west label \(j\) and north label \(i(j)\).

INPUT:

  • max_letter – positive integer specifying the number of steps in the partial flag variety, equivalently, the number of elements in the alphabet for the edge labels. The smallest label is \(1\).

class sage.combinat.knutson_tao_puzzles.KnutsonTaoPuzzleSolver(puzzle_pieces)[source]#

Bases: UniqueRepresentation

Return puzzle solver function used to create all puzzles with given boundary conditions.

This class implements a generic algorithm to solve Knutson-Tao puzzles. An instance of this class will be callable: the arguments are the labels of north-east and north-west sides of the puzzle boundary; the output is the list of the fillings of the puzzle with the specified pieces.

INPUT:

  • puzzle_pieces – takes either a collection of puzzle pieces or a string indicating a pre-programmed collection of puzzle pieces:

    • H – cohomology of the Grassmannian

    • HT – equivariant cohomology of the Grassmannian

    • K – K-theory

    • H2step – cohomology of the 2-step Grassmannian

    • HT2step – equivariant cohomology of the 2-step Grassmannian

    • BK – Belkale-Kumar puzzle pieces

  • max_letter – (default: None) None or a positive integer. This is only required only for Belkale-Kumar puzzles.

EXAMPLES:

Each puzzle piece is an edge-labelled triangle oriented in such a way that it has a south edge (called a delta piece) or a north edge (called a nabla piece). For example, the puzzle pieces corresponding to the cohomology of the Grassmannian are the following:

sage: from sage.combinat.knutson_tao_puzzles import H_grassmannian_pieces
sage: H_grassmannian_pieces()
Nablas : [0\0/0, 0\10/1, 10\1/0, 1\0/10, 1\1/1]
Deltas : [0/0\0, 0/1\10, 1/10\0, 1/1\1, 10/0\1]
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.combinat.knutson_tao_puzzles import H_grassmannian_pieces
>>> H_grassmannian_pieces()
Nablas : [0\0/0, 0\10/1, 10\1/0, 1\0/10, 1\1/1]
Deltas : [0/0\0, 0/1\10, 1/10\0, 1/1\1, 10/0\1]

In the string representation, the nabla pieces are depicted as c\a/b, where \(a\) is the label of the north edge, \(b\) is the label of the south-east edge, \(c\) is the label of the south-west edge. A similar string representation exists for the delta pieces.

To create a puzzle solver, one specifies a collection of puzzle pieces:

sage: KnutsonTaoPuzzleSolver(H_grassmannian_pieces())
Knutson-Tao puzzle solver with pieces:
Nablas : [0\0/0, 0\10/1, 10\1/0, 1\0/10, 1\1/1]
Deltas : [0/0\0, 0/1\10, 1/10\0, 1/1\1, 10/0\1]
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> KnutsonTaoPuzzleSolver(H_grassmannian_pieces())
Knutson-Tao puzzle solver with pieces:
Nablas : [0\0/0, 0\10/1, 10\1/0, 1\0/10, 1\1/1]
Deltas : [0/0\0, 0/1\10, 1/10\0, 1/1\1, 10/0\1]

The following shorthand to create the above puzzle solver is also supported:

sage: KnutsonTaoPuzzleSolver('H')
Knutson-Tao puzzle solver with pieces:
Nablas : [0\0/0, 0\10/1, 10\1/0, 1\0/10, 1\1/1]
Deltas : [0/0\0, 0/1\10, 1/10\0, 1/1\1, 10/0\1]
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> KnutsonTaoPuzzleSolver('H')
Knutson-Tao puzzle solver with pieces:
Nablas : [0\0/0, 0\10/1, 10\1/0, 1\0/10, 1\1/1]
Deltas : [0/0\0, 0/1\10, 1/10\0, 1/1\1, 10/0\1]

The solver will compute all fillings of the puzzle with the given puzzle pieces. The user specifies the labels of north-east and north-west sides of the puzzle boundary and the output is a list of the fillings of the puzzle with the specified pieces. For example, there is one solution to the puzzle whose north-west and north-east edges are both labeled ‘0’:

sage: ps = KnutsonTaoPuzzleSolver('H')
sage: ps('0', '0')
[{(1, 1): 0/0\0}]
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> ps = KnutsonTaoPuzzleSolver('H')
>>> ps('0', '0')
[{(1, 1): 0/0\0}]

There are two solutions to the puzzle whose north-west and north-east edges are both labeled ‘0101’:

sage: ps = KnutsonTaoPuzzleSolver('H')
sage: solns = ps('0101', '0101')
sage: len(solns)

sage: solns.sort(key=str)

The pieces in a puzzle filling are indexed by pairs of non-negative integers \((i, j)\) with \(1 \leq i \leq j \leq n\), where \(n\) is the length of the word labelling the triangle edge. The pieces indexed by \((i, i)\) are the triangles along the south edge of the puzzle.

sage: f = solns[0]
sage: [f[i, i] for i in range(1,5)]
[0/0\0, 1/1\1, 1/1\1, 10/0\1]
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> f = solns[Integer(0)]
>>> [f[i, i] for i in range(Integer(1),Integer(5))]
[0/0\0, 1/1\1, 1/1\1, 10/0\1]

The pieces indexed by \((i, j)\) for \(j > i\) are a pair consisting of a delta piece and nabla piece glued together along the south edge and north edge, respectively (these pairs are called rhombi).

sage: f = solns[0]
sage: f[1, 2]
1/\0  0\/1
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> f = solns[Integer(0)]
>>> f[Integer(1), Integer(2)]
1/\0  0\/1

There are various methods and options to display puzzle solutions. A single puzzle can be displayed using the plot method of the puzzle:

sage: ps = KnutsonTaoPuzzleSolver("H")
sage: puzzle = ps('0101','1001')[0]
sage: puzzle.plot()  #not tested
sage: puzzle.plot(style='fill')  #not tested
sage: puzzle.plot(style='edges')  #not tested
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> ps = KnutsonTaoPuzzleSolver("H")
>>> puzzle = ps('0101','1001')[Integer(0)]
>>> puzzle.plot()  #not tested
>>> puzzle.plot(style='fill')  #not tested
>>> puzzle.plot(style='edges')  #not tested

To plot several puzzle solutions, use the plot method of the puzzle solver:

sage: ps = KnutsonTaoPuzzleSolver('K')
sage: solns = ps('0101', '0101')
sage: ps.plot(solns)        # not tested
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> ps = KnutsonTaoPuzzleSolver('K')
>>> solns = ps('0101', '0101')
>>> ps.plot(solns)        # not tested

The code can also generate a PDF of a puzzle (using LaTeX and tikz):

sage: latex.extra_preamble(r'''\usepackage{tikz}''')
sage: ps = KnutsonTaoPuzzleSolver('H')
sage: solns = ps('0101', '0101')
sage: view(solns[0], viewer='pdf')  # not tested
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> latex.extra_preamble(r'''\usepackage{tikz}''')
>>> ps = KnutsonTaoPuzzleSolver('H')
>>> solns = ps('0101', '0101')
>>> view(solns[Integer(0)], viewer='pdf')  # not tested

Below are examples of using each of the currently supported puzzles.

Cohomology of the Grassmannian:

class sage.combinat.knutson_tao_puzzles.PuzzlePieces(forbidden_border_labels=None)[source]#

Bases: object

Construct a valid set of puzzle pieces.

This class constructs the set of valid puzzle pieces. It can take a list of forbidden border labels as input. These labels are forbidden from appearing on the south edge of a puzzle filling. The user can add valid nabla or delta pieces and specify which rotations of these pieces are legal. For example, rotations=0 does not add any additional pieces (only the piece itself), rotations=60 adds six pieces (the pieces and its rotations by 60, 120, 180, 240, 300), etc..

EXAMPLES:

sage: from sage.combinat.knutson_tao_puzzles import PuzzlePieces, NablaPiece
sage: forbidden_border_labels = ['10']
sage: pieces = PuzzlePieces(forbidden_border_labels)
sage: pieces.add_piece(NablaPiece('0','0','0'), rotations=60)
sage: pieces.add_piece(NablaPiece('1','1','1'), rotations=60)
sage: pieces.add_piece(NablaPiece('1','0','10'), rotations=60)
sage: pieces
Nablas : [0\0/0, 0\10/1, 10\1/0, 1\0/10, 1\1/1]
Deltas : [0/0\0, 0/1\10, 1/10\0, 1/1\1, 10/0\1]
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.combinat.knutson_tao_puzzles import PuzzlePieces, NablaPiece
>>> forbidden_border_labels = ['10']
>>> pieces = PuzzlePieces(forbidden_border_labels)
>>> pieces.add_piece(NablaPiece('0','0','0'), rotations=Integer(60))
>>> pieces.add_piece(NablaPiece('1','1','1'), rotations=Integer(60))
>>> pieces.add_piece(NablaPiece('1','0','10'), rotations=Integer(60))
>>> pieces
Nablas : [0\0/0, 0\10/1, 10\1/0, 1\0/10, 1\1/1]
Deltas : [0/0\0, 0/1\10, 1/10\0, 1/1\1, 10/0\1]

The user can obtain the list of valid rhombi pieces as follows:

sage: sorted([p for p in pieces.rhombus_pieces()], key=str)
[0/\0  0\/0, 0/\0  1\/10, 0/\10  10\/0, 0/\10  1\/1, 1/\0  0\/1,
1/\1  10\/0, 1/\1  1\/1, 10/\1  0\/0, 10/\1  1\/10]
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> sorted([p for p in pieces.rhombus_pieces()], key=str)
[0/\0  0\/0, 0/\0  1\/10, 0/\10  10\/0, 0/\10  1\/1, 1/\0  0\/1,
1/\1  10\/0, 1/\1  1\/1, 10/\1  0\/0, 10/\1  1\/10]
add_T_piece(label1, label2)[source]#

Add a nabla and delta piece with label1 and label2.

This method adds a nabla piece with edges label2T``label1``|``label2`` / label1. and a delta piece with edges label1/ T``label1``|``label2`` label2. It also adds T``label1``|``label2`` to the forbidden list.

EXAMPLES:

sage: from sage.combinat.knutson_tao_puzzles import PuzzlePieces
sage: pieces = PuzzlePieces()
sage: pieces.add_T_piece('1','3')
sage: pieces
Nablas : [3\T1|3/1]
Deltas : [1/T1|3\3]
sage: pieces._forbidden_border_labels
['T1|3']
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> from sage.combinat.knutson_tao_puzzles import PuzzlePieces
>>> pieces = PuzzlePieces()
>>> pieces.add_T_piece('1','3')
>>> pieces

>>> pieces._forbidden_border_labels
['T1|3']
add_forbidden_label(label)[source]#

INPUT:

  • label – string specifying a new forbidden label

EXAMPLES:

sage: from sage.combinat.knutson_tao_puzzles import PuzzlePieces
sage: pieces = PuzzlePieces()
sage: pieces.add_forbidden_label('1')
sage: pieces._forbidden_border_labels

>>> pieces._forbidden_border_labels
['1', '2']
add_piece(piece, rotations=120)[source]#

Add piece to the list of pieces.

INPUT:

  • piece – a nabla piece or a delta piece

  • rotations – (default: 120) 0, 60, 120, 180

The user can add valid nabla or delta pieces and specify which rotations of these pieces are legal. For example, rotations=0 does not add any additional pieces (only the piece itself), rotations=60 adds six pieces (namely three delta and three nabla pieces), while rotations=120 adds only delta or nabla (depending on which piece self is). rotations=180 adds the piece and its 180 degree rotation, i.e. one delta and one nabla piece.
