A note on the map expansion of Jack polynomials

Combinatorics 2023-10-30 v1

Abstract

In a recent work, Maciej Do\l{}e\k{}ga and the author have given a formula of the expansion of the Jack polynomial Jλ(α)J^{(\alpha)}_\lambda in the power-sum basis as a non-orientability generating series of bipartite maps whose edges are decorated with the boxes of the partition λ\lambda. We conjecture here a variant of this expansion in which we restrict the sum on maps whose edges are injectively decorated by the boxes of λ\lambda. We prove this conjecture for Jack polynomials indexed by 2-column partitions. The proof uses a mix of combinatorial methods and differential operator computations.
