Three Combinatorial Algorithms for the Cave Polynomial of a Polymatroid

Published 12 Jan 2026 in math.CO, math.AC, and math.AG | (2601.07697v1)

Abstract: The cave polynomial of a polymatroid was recently introduced and used to study the syzygies of polymatroidal ideals. We study the combinatorial relationships between three formulas for the cave polynomial. As an application, we interpret the Snapper polynomial in terms of these three formulas.
