The space $\\widehat{V_n}$ is the span of the Castelnuovo-Mumford polynomials $\\widehat{\\mathfrak{G}}_w$ with $w \\in S_n$. Pechenik, Speyer and Weigandt define $\\widehat{\\mathfrak{G}}_w$ as the top-degree components of the Grothendieck polynomials and extract a basis of $\\widehat{V_n}$. We describe another basis consisting of $\\widehat{\\mathfrak{L}}_\\alpha$, the top-degree components of Lascoux polynomials. Our basis connects the Hilbert series of $\\widehat{V_n}$ and $\\widehat{V}$ to rook-theoretic results of Garsia and Remmel. To understand $\\widehat{\\mathfrak{L}}_\\alpha$, we introduce a combinatorial construction called a ``snow diagram'' that augments and decorates any diagram $D$. When $D$ is the key diagram of $\\alpha$, its snow diagram yields the leading monomial of $\\widehat{\\mathfrak{L}}_\\alpha$. When $D$ is the Rothe diagram of $w$, its snow diagram yields the leading monomial of $\\widehat{\\mathfrak{G}}_w$, agreeing with the work of Pechenik, Speyer and Weigandt.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-02-07T17:49:02.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05E05" ], "keywords": [ "top-degree components", "lascoux polynomials", "snow diagram yields", "leading monomial", "hilbert series" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 27, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
