The Tropical Amplituhedron

The Amplituhedron is a subspace of the Grassmannian that was recently defined by Arkani-Hamed and Trnka in their study of scattering amplitudes in planar $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang Mills theory (arXiv:1312.2007), and was the subject of many papers in the last decade. In this work we define a tropical analog of the amplituhedron, and develop techniques to address it. We prove that many of the key properties of the amplituhedron hold also in this simpler, piecewise linear, model.

On Bruhat intervals of small lengths for Weyl groups

The number of Bruhat intervals in Coxeter groups is finite, and for the first few lengths, the intervals were described up to an isomorphism by A. Hultman using the correspondence between Bruhat intervals and cell decompositions of a 2d sphere and straightforward computations. The main purpose of this paper consists of a description of the intervals in higher dimensions, as the Hultman's geometric method is hard to apply due to rapidly growing with length number of nonisomorphic intervals. We construct an invariant on subintervals in the Bruhat graphs, using their specific properties. This gives us a method of comparing two Bruhat interval, that is faster than the general algorithm for checking if two graphs are isomorphic. This construction is inductive, and thus, can be easily applied for any interval length and Weyl group.
