Title: Tautological classes of matroids.
Abstract: Algebraic geometry has furnished fruitful tools for studying
matroids, which are combinatorial abstractions of hyperplane arrangements.
We first survey some recent developments, pointing out how these
developments remained partially disjoint. We then introduce certain vector
bundles (K-classes) on permutohedral varieties, which we call
"tautological bundles (classes)" of matroids, as a new framework that
unifies, recovers, and extends these recent developments. Our framework
leads to new questions that further probe the boundary between
combinatorics and geometry. Joint work with Andrew Berget, Hunter Spink,
and Dennis Tseng.
