Using this, we show that weights of certain chains in rectangles shift in a predictable way under the action of rowmotion. We then define generalized Stanley-Thomas words whose cyclic rotation uniquely determines birational rowmotion on the product of two chains. We also discuss the relationship between rowmotion and birational RSK and give a birational analogue of Greene's theorem in this setting.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-04-08T19:11:29.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "octahedron recurrence", "cyclic rotation uniquely determines birational", "rotation uniquely determines birational rowmotion", "define generalized stanley-thomas words", "rectangles shift" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
