Unimodality of $q$-Fibonomial coefficients for small cases

Bergeron--Ceballos--K\"ustner introduced the $q$-Fibonomial coefficients \( \qfibonom{m+n}{n}\), gave a combinatorial interpretation of the $q$-Fibonomial coefficients via a weighted path-domino tiling model, and conjectured that these polynomials are unimodal. We prove the conjecture for $n\leq3$. For the $n=2$ case, we give a combinatorial proof of both unimodality and symmetry by defining a nearly symmetric saturated chain decomposition on the set of tilings. For all three cases, we give an algebraic proof. Finally, for the $n=3$ case, we establish a more general unimodality result for certain products of $q$-analogs and propose several related conjectures.

Rotationally symmetric plabic graphs and the Lagrangian Grassmannian

We introduce the totally nonnegative Lagrangian Grassmannian $\rm{LG}_{\geq 0}^R (n,2n)$, a new subset of the totally nonnegative Grassmannian consisting of subspaces isotropic with respect to a certain bilinear form $R$. We describe its cell structure and show that each cell admits a representation by a rotationally symmetric (not necessarily reduced) plabic graph. Along the way, we develop new techniques for working with non-reduced plabic graphs.

Connection between the Riemann integrability of a multi-valued function and of its convex hull

For a Banach space $X$ we demonstrate the equivalence of the following two properties: (1) $X$ is B-convex (that is, possesses a nontrivial infratype), and (2) if ${F: [0,1] \to 2^{X} \setminus \{\varnothing\}}$ is a {multifunction}, $\mathrm{conv} F$ denotes the mapping $t \mapsto \mathrm{conv} F(t)$, then the Riemann integrability of $\mathrm{conv} F$ is equivalent to the Riemann integrability of $F$. For multifunctions with compact values the Riemann integrability of $\mathrm{conv} F$ is equivalent to the Riemann integrability of $F$ without any restrictions on the Banach space $X$.
