Positive m-divisible non-crossing partitions and their Kreweras maps

(169 pages)

Abstract. We study positive m-divisible non-crossing partitions, as introduced by Buan, Reiten and Thomas. In all classical types, we describe combinatorial realisations of these partitions as certain non-crossing set partitions. Furthermore, we discuss a translation of a representation-theoretic functor of Simões and of Buan, Reiten and Thomas into Coxeter combinatorics (which was also studied by the second author, Thomas and Williams), called the positive Kreweras map. Again for all classical types, we realise this positive Kreweras map as pseudo-rotations on a circle, respectively on an annulus. Using our combinatorial models, we enumerate positive m-divisible non-crossing partitions in classical types that are invariant under a power of the positive Kreweras map with respect to several parameters. In order to cope with the exceptional types, we develop a different combinatorial model (that actually works in any type) describing positive m-divisible non-crossing partitions that are invariant under a power of the positive Kreweras map. We finally show that altogether these results establish several cyclic sieving phenomena as defined by Reiner, Stanton and White.
