Tesler matrices are certain integral matrices counted by the Kostant partition function and have appeared recently in Haglund's study of diagonal harmonics. In 2014, Drew Armstrong defined a poset on such matrices and conjectured that the characteristic polynomial of this poset is a power of $q-1$. We use a method of Hallam and Sagan to prove a stronger version of this conjecture for posets of a certain class of generalized Tesler matrices. We also study bounds for the number of Tesler matrices and how they compare to the number of parking functions, the dimension of the space of diagonal harmonics.

International audience We generalize previous definitions of Tesler matrices to allow negative matrix entries and non-positive hook sums. Our main result is an algebraic interpretation of a certain weighted sum over these matrices. Our interpretation uses <i>virtual Hilbert series</i>, a new class of symmetric function specializations which are defined by their values on (modified) Macdonald polynomials. As a result of this interpretation, we obtain a Tesler matrix expression for the Hall inner product $\langle \Delta_f e_n, p_{1^{n}}\rangle$, where $\Delta_f$ is a symmetric function operator from the theory of diagonal harmonics. We use our Tesler matrix expression, along with various facts about Tesler matrices, to provide simple formulas for $\langle \Delta_{e_1} e_n, p_{1^{n}}\rangle$ and $\langle \Delta_{e_k} e_n, p_{1^{n}}\rangle \mid_{t=0}$ involving $q; t$-binomial coefficients and ordered set partitions, respectively. Nous généralisons les définitions précédentes de matrices Tesler pour permettre les entrées de la matrice négatives et des montants crochet non-positifs. Notre principal résultat est une interprétation algébrique d’une certaine somme pondérée sur ces matrices. Notre interprétation utilise <i>série de Hilbert virtuel</i>, une nouvelle classe de spécialisations fonctionnelles symétriques qui sont définies par leurs valeurs sur les polynômes de Macdonald (modifiées). À la suite de cette interprétation, on obtient une expression de la matrice Tesler pour la salle intérieure produit $\langle \Delta_f e_n, p_{1^{n}}\rangle$, où $\Delta_f$ est un opérateur de fonction symétrique de la théorie harmonique de diagonale. Nous utilisons notre expression de la matrice Tesler, ainsi que divers faits sur des matrices Tesler, de fournir des formules simples pour $\langle \Delta_{e_1} e_n, p_{1^{n}}\rangle$ et $\langle \Delta_{e_k} e_n, p_{1^{n}}\rangle \mid_{t=0}$ impliquant $q; t$-coefficients binomial et ensemble ordonné partitions, respectivement.

International audience We examine the $q=1$ and $t=0$ special cases of the parking functions conjecture. The parking functions conjecture states that the Hilbert series for the space of diagonal harmonics is equal to the bivariate generating function of $area$ and $dinv$ over the set of parking functions. Haglund recently proved that the Hilbert series for the space of diagonal harmonics is equal to a bivariate generating function over the set of Tesler matrices–upper-triangular matrices with every hook sum equal to one. We give a combinatorial interpretation of the Haglund generating function at $q=1$ and prove the corresponding case of the parking functions conjecture (first proven by Garsia and Haiman). We also discuss a possible proof of the $t = 0$ case consistent with this combinatorial interpretation. We conclude by briefly discussing possible refinements of the parking functions conjecture arising from this research and point of view. $\textbf{Note added in proof}$: We have since found such a proof of the $t = 0$ case and conjectured more detailed refinements. This research will most likely be presented in full in a forthcoming article. On examine les cas spéciaux $q=1$ et $t=0$ de la conjecture des fonctions de stationnement. Cette conjecture déclare que la série de Hilbert pour l'espace des harmoniques diagonaux est égale à la fonction génératrice bivariée (paramètres $area$ et $dinv$) sur l'ensemble des fonctions de stationnement. Haglund a prouvé récemment que la série de Hilbert pour l'espace des harmoniques diagonaux est égale à une fonction génératrice bivariée sur l'ensemble des matrices de Tesler triangulaires supérieures dont la somme de chaque équerre vaut un. On donne une interprétation combinatoire de la fonction génératrice de Haglund pour $q=1$ et on prouve le cas correspondant de la conjecture dans le cas des fonctions de stationnement (prouvé d'abord par Garsia et Haiman). On discute aussi d'une preuve possible du cas $t=0$, cohérente avec cette interprétation combinatoire. On conclut en discutant brièvement les raffinements possibles de la conjecture des fonctions de stationnement de ce point de vue. $\textbf{Note ajoutée sur épreuve}$: j'ai trouvé depuis cet article une preuve du cas $t=0$ et conjecturé des raffinements possibles. Ces résultats seront probablement présentés dans un article ultérieur.

We introduce a new class of admissible pairs of triangular sequences and prove a bijection between the set of admissible pairs of triangular sequences of length $n$ and the set of parking functions of length $n$. For all $u$ and $v=0,1,2,3$ and all $n\le 7$ we describe in terms of admissible pairs the dimensions of the bi-graded components $h_{u,v}$ of diagonal harmonics ${\Bbb{C}}[x_1,\dots,x_n;y_1,\dots,y_n]/S_n$, i.e., polynomials in two groups of $n$ variables modulo the diagonal action of symmetric group $S_n$.

Let $\Phi$ be an irreducible crystallographic root system with Weyl group $W$, coroot lattice $\check{Q}$ and Coxeter number $h$. Recently the second named author defined a uniform $W$-isomorphism $\zeta$ between the finite torus $\check{Q}/(mh+1)\check{Q}$ and the set of non-nesting parking functions $\operatorname{Park}^{(m)}(\Phi)$. If $\Phi$ is of type $A_{n-1}$ and $m=1$ this map is equivalent to a map defined on labelled Dyck paths that arises in the study of the Hilbert series of the space of diagonal harmonics. In this paper we investigate the case $m=1$ for the other infinite families of root systems ($B_n$, $C_n$ and $D_n$). In each type we define models for the finite torus and for the set of non-nesting parking functions in terms of labelled lattice paths. The map $\zeta$ can then be viewed as a map between these combinatorial objects. Our work entails new bijections between (square) lattice paths and ballot paths.

Haglund and Loehr previously conjectured two equivalent combinatorial formulas for the Hilbert series of the Garsia-Haiman diagonal harmonics modules. These formulas involve weighted sums of labelled Dyck paths (or parking functions) relative to suitable statistics. This article introduces a third combinatorial formula that is shown to be equivalent to the first two. We show that the four statistics on labelled Dyck paths appearing in these formulas all have the same univariate distribution, which settles an earlier question of Haglund and Loehr. We then introduce analogous statistics on other collections of labelled lattice paths contained in trapezoids. We obtain a fermionic formula for the generating function for these statistics. We give bijective proofs of the equivalence of several forms of this generating function. These bijections imply that all the new statistics have the same univariate distribution. Using these new statistics, we conjecture combinatorial formulas for the Hilbert series of certain generalizations of the diagonal harmonics modules.

International audience The Hilbert series of the Garsia-Haiman module can be written as a generating function of standard fillings of Ferrers diagrams. It is conjectured by Haglund and Loehr that the Hilbert series of the diagonal harmonics can be written as a generating function of parking functions. In this paper we present a weight-preserving injection from standard fillings to parking functions for certain cases. La série Hilbert du module Garsia-Haiman peut être écrite comme fonction génératrice de tableaux des diagrammes Ferrers. Haglund et Loehr conjecturent que la série Hilbert de l'harmonic diagonale peut être écrite comme fonction génératrice des fonctions parking. Dans cet essai nous présentons une injection des tableaux vers les fonctions parking pour certains cas.

It is known that the Pak-Stanley labeling of the Shi hyperplane arrangement provides a bijection between the regions of the arrangement and parking functions. For any graph $G$, we define the $G$-semiorder arrangement and show that the Pak-Stanley labeling of its regions produces all $G$-parking functions.
