The additive monoid of Gelfand-Tsetlin patterns #
The interlacing inequalities defining a Gelfand-Tsetlin pattern are homogeneous linear
inequalities between entries, so patterns can be added entrywise: TauCeti.GTPattern n is an
ordered cancellative commutative monoid for the pointwise addition and order of its entries. It is
not a group, since negating a pattern reverses its inequalities. The polynomial patterns are the
nonnegative ones for this order: those whose top weight is polynomial.
Main definitions #
TauCeti.GTPattern.instAddCancelCommMonoid,TauCeti.GTPattern.instPartialOrderandTauCeti.GTPattern.instIsOrderedCancelAddMonoid: the entrywise additive and order structures.TauCeti.GTPattern.coeFnAddMonoidHom: the array of entries, as an additive monoid homomorphism.TauCeti.GTPattern.const n m: the pattern all of whose informative entries equalm.
Main results #
TauCeti.GTPattern.zero_le_iff_topRow: a pattern is nonnegative exactly when its top row is.TauCeti.GTPattern.zero_le_iff_isPolynomial: a pattern is nonnegative exactly when its top weight is polynomial.
The entrywise additive monoid #
Gelfand-Tsetlin patterns form a cancellative commutative monoid under entrywise addition.
Constant patterns #
The constant pattern: every informative entry equals m. Adding it to a pattern is the
determinant shift by m (TauCeti.GTPattern.shift_eq_add_const).
Instances For
The entrywise order #
Gelfand-Tsetlin patterns are ordered entrywise.
The entrywise order is compatible with entrywise addition.
The nonnegative patterns are those whose top weight is polynomial.
