Cointeraction on noncrossing partitions and related polynomial invariants
Résumé
We study the structure of bialgebras in cointeraction on noncrossing partitions appearing in the theory of free probability.
Its first coproduct is given by separation of the blocks of the partitions into two parts, with respect to the nestings, while the second one is given by fusion of blocks.
This structure implies the existence of a unique polynomial invariant respecting the product and both coproducts:
we give a combinatorial interpretation of this polynomial invariant, study its values at -1 and use it for the computation of the antipode.
We also give several results on its coefficients, in the simplest case where the considered noncrossing partitions have no nesting.
This leads to unexpected links with harmonic nested sums, Riordan arrays and generalized Stirling numbers.
This polynomial invariant is related to other ones, counting increasing or strictly increasing maps for the nesting order on noncrossing partitions, through the action of several characters.
