Vertex-weighted graphs and freeness of $ psi $-graphical arrangements


Abstract in English

Let $ G $ be a simple graph of $ ell $ vertices $ {1, dots, ell } $ with edge set $ E_{G} $. The graphical arrangement $ mathcal{A}_{G} $ consists of hyperplanes $ {x_{i}-x_{j}=0} $, where $ {i, j } in E_{G} $. It is well known that three properties, chordality of $ G $, supersolvability of $ mathcal{A}_{G} $, and freeness of $ mathcal{A}_{G} $ are equivalent. Recently, Richard P. Stanley introduced $ psi $-graphical arrangement $ mathcal{A}_{G, psi} $ as a generalization of graphical arrangements. Lili Mu and Stanley characterized the supersolvability of the $ psi $-graphical arrangements and conjectured that the freeness and the supersolvability of $ psi $-graphical arrangements are equivalent. In this paper, we will prove the conjecture.
