Monotone path polytopes arise as a special case of the construction of fiber polytopes, introduced by Billera and Sturmfels. A simple example is provided by the permutahedron, whic...
A differential poset is a partially ordered set with raising and lowering operators U and D which satisfy the commutation relation DU-UD = rI for some constant r. This notion may ...
Abstract. RNA shapes, introduced by Giegerich et al. (17), provide a useful classification of the branching complexity for RNA secondary structures. In this paper, we derive an exa...
The Baxter number Bn can be written as Bn = n k=0 Θk,n−k−1 with Θk,ℓ = 2 (k + 1)2 (k + 2) k + ℓ k k + ℓ + 1 k k + ℓ + 2 k . These numbers have first appeared in the...
