Since every even power of the Vandermonde determinant is a symmetric polynomial, we want to understand its decomposition in terms of the basis of Schur functions. We investigate several combinatorial properties of the coefficients in the…
In this work, the determinants of matrices constructed by evaluating homogeneous bivariate polynomials at pairs of vectors are investigated. For a polynomial $p(x,y)=\sum\limits_{i=0}^k \alpha_i x^{k-i}y^i$, an explicit factorization of the…
This note presents some results about Hankel determinants of backwards shifted Catalan-like numbers and related sequences.
We introduce a deformation of Cayley's second hyperdeterminant for even-dimensional hypermatrices. As an application, we formulate a generalization of the Jacobi-Trudi formula for Macdonald functions of rectangular shapes generalizing…
It is a standard result that the Hankel determinants for a sequence stay invariant after performing the binomial transform on this sequence. In this work, we extend the scenario to $q$-binomial transforms and study the behavior of the…
We introduce the notion of a confluent Vandermonde matrix with quaternion entries and discuss its connection with Lagrange-Hermite interpolation over quaternions. Further results include the formula for the rank of a confluent Vandermonde…
This (partly expository) paper originated from the study of Hankel determinants of convolution powers of Catalan numbers and of Narayana polynomials. This led to some Hankel determinants of signed Catalan numbers whose values are multiples…
In this paper we introduce a class of determinants "of Hankel type". We use them to compute certain remarkable families of Drinfeld quasi-modular forms.
The Jack polynomials with prescribed symmetry are obtained from the nonsymmetric polynomials via the operations of symmetrization, antisymmetrization and normalization. After dividing out the corresponding antisymmetric polynomial of…
The Hankel determinants of a given power series $f$ can be evaluated by using the Jacobi continued fraction expansion of $f$. However the existence of the Jacobi continued fraction needs that all Hankel determinants of $f$ are nonzero. We…
We study a relation between Hadamard powers and polynomial kernel perceptrons. The rank of Hadamard powers for the special case of a Boolean matrix and for the generic case of a real matrix is computed explicitly. These results are…
The hyperdeterminant of a polynomial (interpreted as a symmetric tensor) factors into several irreducible factors with multiplicities. Using geometric techniques these factors are identified along with their degrees and their…
We present a formula that expresses the Hankel determinants of a linear combination of length $d+1$ of moments of orthogonal polynomials in terms of a $d\times d$ determinant of the orthogonal polynomials. This formula exists somehow hidden…
We present a positivity conjecture for the coefficients of the development of Jack polynomials in terms of power sums. This extends Stanley's ex-conjecture about normalized characters of the symmetric group. We prove this conjecture for…
Four new examples of explicitly diagonalizable Hankel matrices depending on a parameter $k\in(0,1)$ are presented. The Hankel matrices are regarded as matrix operators on the Hilbert space $\ell^{2}(\mathbb{N}_{0})$ and the solution of the…
This note collects some facts and conjectures about the Hankel determinants and their generating functions of the columns of Hoggatt triangles which apparently are related to combinatorial objects such as Young tableaux and Narayana…
We prove a previously conjectured closed form formula for the norm of the Jack polynomials in superspace with respect to a certain scalar product. The proof is mainly combinatorial and relies on the explicit expression in terms of…
A new class of structured matrices is presented and a closed form formula for their determinant is established. This formula has strong connections with the one for Vandermonde matrices.
An overview of the basic results on Macdonald(-Koornwinder) polynomials and double affine Hecke algebras is given. We develop the theory in such a way that it naturally encompasses all known cases. Among the basic properties of the…
This paper surveys eight classes of polynomials associated with $A$-type and $BC$-type root systems: Jack, Jacobi, Macdonald and Koornwinder polynomials and interpolation (or shifted) Jack and Macdonald polynomials and their $BC$-type…
