Smith", "Einar Steingrimsson" ], "categories": [ "math.CO" ], "abstract": "We classify all recurrent configurations of the Abelian sandpile model (ASM) on Ferrers graphs. The classification is in terms of decorations of EW-tableaux, which undecorated are in bijection with the minimal recurrent configurations. We introduce decorated permutations, extending to decorated EW-tableaux a bijection between such tableaux and permutations, giving a direct bijection between the decorated permutations and all recurrent configurations of the ASM. We also describe a bijection between the decorated permutations and the intransitive trees of Postnikov, the breadth-first search of which corresponds to a canonical toppling of the corresponding configurations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-09-20T16:34:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "abelian sandpile model", "ferrers graphs", "classification", "decorated permutations", "minimal recurrent configurations" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
