Abstract

Let (x1,,xn,y1,,yn)(x_1, \dots, x_n, y_1, \dots, y_n) be a list of 2n2n commuting variables, (θ1,,θn,ξ1,,ξn)(\theta_1, \dots, \theta_n, \xi_1, \dots, \xi_n) be a list of 2n2n anticommuting variables, and C[Xn,Yn]{Θn,Ξn}\mathbb{C}[X_n, Y_n] \otimes \wedge \{\Theta_n, \Xi_n\} be the algebra generated by these variables. D'Adderio, Iraci, and Vanden Wyngaerd introduced the {\em Theta operators} on the ring of symmetric functions and used them to conjecture a formula for the quadruply-graded Sn\mathfrak{S}_n-isomorphism type of C[Xn,Yn]{Θn,Ξn}/I\mathbb{C}[X_n,Y_n] \otimes \wedge \{\Theta_n, \Xi_n\}/I where II is the ideal generated by Sn\mathfrak{S}_n-invariants with vanishing constant term. We prove their conjecture in the `purely fermionic setting' obtained by setting the commuting variables equal xi,yix_i, y_i equal to zero.
