Chromatic quasisymmetric functions and noncommutative -symmetric functions

For a natural unit interval order P P , we describe proper colorings of the incomparability graph of P P in the language of heaps. We also introduce a combinatorial operation, called a local flip , on the heaps. This operation defines an equivalence relation on the proper colorings, and the equivale...

Description
Summary:For a natural unit interval order P P , we describe proper colorings of the incomparability graph of P P in the language of heaps. We also introduce a combinatorial operation, called a local flip , on the heaps. This operation defines an equivalence relation on the proper colorings, and the equivalence relation refines the ascent statistic introduced by Shareshian and Wachs. In addition, we define an analogue of noncommutative symmetric functions introduced by Fomin and Greene, with respect to P P . We establish a duality between the chromatic quasisymmetric function of P P and these noncommutative symmetric functions. This duality leads us to positive expansions of the chromatic quasisymmetric functions into several symmetric function bases. In particular, we present some partial results for the e e -positivity conjecture.
