Explicit computations with the Divided Symmetrization operator

Combinatorics 2014-06-03 v1

Abstract

Given a multi-variable polynomial, there is an associated divided symmetrization (in particular turning it into a symmetric function). Postinkov has found the volume of a permutohedron as a divided symmetrization (DS) of the power of a certain linear form. The main task in this paper is to exhibit and prove closed form DS-formulas for a variety of polynomials. We hope the results to be valuable and available to the research practitioner in these areas. Also, the methods of proof utilized here are simple and amenable to many more analogous computations. We conclude the paper with a list of such formulas.
