Abstract

A classic problem connecting algebraic and geometric combinatorics is the realization problem: given a poset, determine whether there exists a polytope whose face lattice is the poset. In 1990s, Kapranov defined a poset as a hybrid between the face poset of a permutohedron and that of an associahedron, and he asked whether this poset is realizable. Shortly after his question was posed, Reiner and Ziegler provided a realization. Based on our previous work on the nested braid fan, we provide in this paper a different realization of Kapranov’s poset by constructing the vertex set and the normal fan of a permuto-associahedron simultaneously.
