On analogs of Cremona automorphisms for matroid fans
View through CrossRef
Matroids are combinatorial objects that generalize linear independence. A matroid can be represented geometrically by its Bergman fan and we compare the symmetries of these two objects. Sometimes, the Bergman fan has additional automorphisms, which are related to Cremona transformations in projective space. Their existence depends on a combinatorial property of the matroid, as has been shown by Shaw and Werner, and we study the consequences for the structure of such matroids. This allows us to gain a better understanding of the so-called Cremona group of a matroid and we apply our results to root system matroids.
Title: On analogs of Cremona automorphisms for matroid fans
Description:
Matroids are combinatorial objects that generalize linear independence.
A matroid can be represented geometrically by its Bergman fan and we compare the symmetries of these two objects.
Sometimes, the Bergman fan has additional automorphisms, which are related to Cremona transformations in projective space.
Their existence depends on a combinatorial property of the matroid, as has been shown by Shaw and Werner, and we study the consequences for the structure of such matroids.
This allows us to gain a better understanding of the so-called Cremona group of a matroid and we apply our results to root system matroids.
