Skew Schur polynomials and cyclic sieving phenomenon

Abstract

Let kk and mm be positive integers and λ/μ\lambda/\mu a skew partition. We compute the principal specialization of the skew Schur polynomials sλ/μ(x1,,xk)s_{\lambda /\mu}(x_1, \ldots, x_{k}) modulo qm1q^m-1 under suitable conditions. We interpret the results thus obtained from the viewpoint of the cyclic sieving phenomenon on semistandard Young skew tableaux of shape λ/μ\lambda/\mu. As an application, we deal with evaluations of the principal specialization of the skew Schur polynomials at roots of unity.
