  1. Abstract

    In the previous work, we initiated the study of the cohomology of locally acyclic cluster varieties. In the present work, we show that the mixed Hodge structure and point counts of acyclic cluster varieties are essentially determined by the combinatorics of the independent sets of the quiver. We use this to show that the mixed Hodge numbers of acyclic cluster varieties of really full rank satisfy a strong vanishing condition.

  2. Matrix Schubert varieties are affine varieties arising in the Schubert calculus of the complete flag variety. We give a formula for the Castelnuovo–Mumford regularity of matrix Schubert varieties, answering a question of Jenna Rajchgot. We follow her proposed strategy of studying the highest-degree homogeneous parts of Grothendieck polynomials, which we call Castelnuovo–Mumford polynomials. In addition to the regularity formula, we obtain formulas for the degrees of all Castelnuovo–Mumford polynomials and for their leading terms, as well as a complete description of when two Castelnuovo–Mumford polynomials agree up to scalar multiple. The degree of the Grothendieck polynomial is a new permutation statistic which we call the Rajchgot index; we develop the properties of Rajchgot index and relate it to major index and to weak order.

  3. Inspired by the infinite families of finite and affine root systems, we define a "stretching" operation on general crystallographic root systems which, on the level of Coxeter diagrams, replaces a vertex with a path of unlabeled edges. We embed a root system into its stretched versions using a similar operation on individual roots. For a fixed root, we describe the long-term behavior of two associated structures as we lengthen the stretched path: the downset in the root poset and Reading's arrangement of shards. We show that both eventually admit a uniform description, and deduce enumerative consequences: the size of the downset is eventually a polynomial, and the number of shards grows exponentially.
