Abstract

We propose versions of higher Bruhat orders for types B and C. This is based on a theory of higher Bruhat orders of type A and their geometric interpretations (due to Manin–Shekhtman, Voevodskii–Kapranov, and Ziegler), and on our study of the so-called symmetric cubillages of cyclic zonotopes.

Notes

  1. Our definition here is slightly different from the standard definition of a digraph morphism; to get a complete correspondence, we should add “loops” (edges connecting identical vertices).

  2. This resembles, though slightly differs from, the concept of full functors in category theory.
