Title:  Geometric proofs of some combinatorial identities of Morel

Using the algebraic and geometric combinatorics of the permutahedron, we
give proofs of combinatorial identities which arise in the technical
heart of Morel's computation of the intersection cohomology of Shimura
varieties.

This is joint work with Richard Ehrenborg and Sophie Morel.
No prior background will be assumed.
