Patterns in Shi tableaux and Dyck paths

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Shi tableaux are special binary fillings of certain Young diagrams which arise in the study of Shi hyperplane arrangements related to classical root systems. For type A, the set mathcalT of Shi tableaux naturally coincides with the set of Dyck paths, for which various notions of patterns have been introduced and studied over the years. In this paper we define a notion of pattern occurrence on mathcalT which, although it can be regarded as a pattern on Dyck paths, it is motivated by the underlying geometric structure of the tableaux. Our main goal in this work is to study the poset of Shi tableaux defined by pattern-containment. More precisely, we determine explicit formulas for upper and lower covers for each TinmathcalT, we consider pattern avoidance for the smallest non-trivial tableaux (size 2) and generalize these results to certain tableau of larger size. We conclude with open problems and possible future directions.
