Abstract
AbstractLet $$\pi :{\mathbb {R}}^n \rightarrow {\mathbb {R}}^d$$
π
:
R
n
→
R
d
be any linear projection, let A be the image of the standard basis. Motivated by Postnikov’s study of postitive Grassmannians via plabic graphs and Galashin’s connection of plabic graphs to slices of zonotopal tilings of 3-dimensional cyclic zonotopes, we study the poset of subdivisions induced by the restriction of $$\pi $$
π
to the k-th hypersimplex, for $$k=1,\dots ,n-1$$
k
=
1
,
⋯
,
n
-
1
. We show that: For arbitrary A and for $$k\le d+1$$
k
≤
d
+
1
, the corresponding fiber polytope $${\mathcal {F}}^{(k)}(A)$$
F
(
k
)
(
A
)
is normally isomorphic to the Minkowski sum of the secondary polytopes of all subsets of A of size $$\max \{d+2,n-k+1\}$$
max
{
d
+
2
,
n
-
k
+
1
}
. When $$A=\mathbf {P}_{n}$$
A
=
P
n
is the vertex set of an n-gon, we answer the Baues question in the positive: the inclusion of the poset of $$\pi $$
π
-coherent subdivisions into the poset of all $$\pi $$
π
-induced subdivisions is a homotopy equivalence. When $$A=\mathbf {C}(d,n)$$
A
=
C
(
d
,
n
)
is the vertex set of a cyclic d-polytope with d odd and any $$n \ge d+3$$
n
≥
d
+
3
, there are non-lifting (and even more so, non-separated) $$\pi $$
π
-induced subdivisions for $$k=2$$
k
