Equivariant Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials of $$q$$-niform matroids. (English) Zbl 1417.05024
Summary: We study $$q$$-analogues of uniform matroids, which we call $$q$$-niform matroids. While uniform matroids admit actions of symmetric groups, $$q$$-niform matroids admit actions of finite general linear groups. We show that the equivariant Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial of a $$q$$-niform matroid is the unipotent $$q$$-analogue of the equivariant Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial of the corresponding uniform matroid, thus providing evidence for the positivity conjecture for equivariant Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials.
