The natural grading on the cohomology induces different gradings of the lattice points of $r\\Delta_{d}$. This leads to different refinements of the Ehrhart polynomial $L_{\\Delta_{d}}(r)$ of the standard $d$-simplex. We study two of these refinements which are defined by the weights $(1,1,\\dots,1)$ and $(1,2,\\dots, d)$. One of the refinements interprets the Poincar\\'e polynomial ${\\rm P(Gr}(d,d+r),z)$ as the counting of the lattice points which lie on the slicing hyperplanes of the dilation $r\\Delta_d$. Therefore, on the combinatorial level the Poincar\\'e polynomial of the Grassmannian Gr$(d,d+r)$ is a refinement of the Ehrhart polynomial $L_{\\Delta_d}(r)$ of the standard $d$-simplex $\\Delta_{d}$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-07-08T04:31:58.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "lattice points", "standard simplex", "poincare polynomial", "ehrhart polynomial", "cohomology induces" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
