We introduce an arithmetic version of the multivariate Tutte polynomial recently studied by Sokal, and a quasi-polynomial that interpolates between the two. We provide a generalized Fortuin-Kasteleyn representation for representable arithmetic matroids, with applications to arithmetic colorings and flows. We give a new proof of the positivity of the coefficients of the arithmetic Tutte polynomial in the more general framework of pseudo-arithmetic matroids. In the case of a representable arithmetic matroid, we provide a geometric interpretation of the coefficients of the arithmetic Tutte polynomial.

Nous donnons une nouvelle preuve de la positivité des coefficients du polynôme de Tutte arithmétique dans le cadre plus général des matroïdes pseudo-arithmétiques. Dans le cas d'un matroïde arithmétique représentable, nous proposons une interprétation géométrique des coefficients du polynôme de Tutte arithmétique.
