Spanning configurations and matroidal representation stability

Abstract: Let

V_{1}, V_{2}, V_{3}, d o t s

be a sequence of

m a t h b b Q

-vector spaces where

V_{n}

carries an action of

m a t h f r a k S_{n}

for each

n

. {em Representation stability} and {em multiplicity stability} are two related notions of when the sequence

V_{n}

has a limit. An important source of stability phenomena arises in the case where

V_{n}

is the

d^{t h}

homology group (for fixed

d

) of the configuration space of

n

distinct points in some fixed topological space

X

. We replace these configuration spaces with the variety

X_{n, k}

of {em spanning configurations} of

n

-tuples

(e l l_{1}, d o t s, e l l_{n})

of lines in

m a t h b b C^{k}

which satisfy

e l l_{1} + c d o t s + e l l_{n} = m a t h b b C^{k}

as vector spaces. We study stability phenomena for the homology groups

H_{d} (X_{n, k})

as the parameter

(n, k)

grows.
