We introduce the multiple zeta functions with structures similar to those of symmetric functions such as Schur $P$-, Schur $Q$-, symplectic and orthogonal functions in the representation theory. We first consider their basic properties such…

Vertex operator realizations of symplectic and orthogonal Schur functions are studied and expanded. New proofs of determinant identities of irreducible characters for the symplectic and orthogonal groups are given. We also give a new proof…

The Naruse hook-length formula is a recent general formula for the number of standard Young tableaux of skew shapes, given as a positive sum over excited diagrams of products of hook-lengths. In 2015 we gave two different $q$-analogues of…

Fix an integer $t \geq 2$ and a primitive $t^{\text{th}}$ root of unity $\omega$. We consider the specialized skew hook Schur polynomial $\text{hs}_{\lambda/\mu}(X,\omega X,\dots,\omega^{t-1}X/Y,\omega Y,\dots,\omega^{t-1}Y)$, where…

Let $s_\nu \circ s_\mu$ denote the plethystic product of the Schur functions $s_\nu$ and $s_\mu$. In this article we define an explicit polynomial representation corresponding to $s_\nu \circ s_\mu$ with basis indexed by certain…

Quasi-Yamanouchi tableaux are a subset of semistandard Young tableaux and refine standard Young tableaux. They are closely tied to the descent set of standard Young tableaux and were introduced by Assaf and Searles to tighten Gessel's…

Mason and Remmel introduced a basis for quasisymmetric functions known as the row-strict quasisymmetric Schur functions. This basis is generated combinatorially by fillings of composition diagrams that are analogous to the row-strict…

We introduce a Pfaffian formula that extends Schur's $Q$-functions $Q_\lambda$ to be indexed by compositions $\lambda$ with negative parts. This formula makes the Pfaffian construction more consistent with other constructions, such as the…

We prove that a Schur function of rectangular shape $(M^n)$ whose variables are specialized to $x_1,x_1^{-1},...,x_n,x_n^{-1}$ factorizes into a product of two odd orthogonal characters of rectangular shape, one of which is evaluated at…

We introduce a super version of the Littlewood--Richardson rule for super Schur functions over signed alphabets. We give in particular combinatorial interpretations of the super Littlewood--Richardson coefficients using the properties of…

Motivated by an attempt to better understand the notion of a symplectic stack, we introduce the notion of a symplectic hopfoid, which should be thought of as the analog of a groupoid in the so-called symplectic category. After reviewing…

Let $\lambda$ be a partition with no more than $n$ parts. Let $\beta$ be a weakly increasing $n$-tuple with entries from $\{ 1, ... , n \}$. The flagged Schur function in the variables $x_1, ... , x_n$ that is indexed by $\lambda$ and…

A standard barely set-valued tableau of shape $\lambda$ is a filling of the Young diagram $\lambda$ with integers $1,2,\dots,|\lambda|+1$ such that the integers are increasing in each row and column, and every cell contains one integer…

We show that combinatorial objects called row-strict composition tableaux, introduced by Mason and Remmel in 2014 and closely related to the quasi-symmetric Schur functions of Haglund-Luoto-Mason-van Willigenburg, form a basis for Schur…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>0, let m,r be integers with m\ge1, r\ge0 and m\ge r and let S_0(2m,r) be the symplectic Schur algebra over k as introduced by the first author. We introduce the symplectic Schur…

We give a direct proof of the equivalence between the Giambelli and Pieri type formulas for Hall-Littlewood functions using Young's raising operators, parallel to joint work with Buch and Kresch for the Schubert classes on isotropic…

We present some corollaries to a symplectic primed shifted tableaux version of Tokuyama's identity expressed in terms of other combinatorial constructs, namely generalised $U$-turn alternating sign matrices and strict symplectic…

The Hecke algebra H_n contains well known idempotents E_{\lambda} which are indexed by Young diagrams with n cells. They were originally described by Gyoja. A skein theoretical description of E_{\lambda} was given by Aiston and Morton. The…

Consider an $n\times k$ matrix of i.i.d. Bernoulli random numbers with $p=1/2$. Dual RSK algorithm gives a bijection of this matrix to a pair of Young tableaux of conjugate shape, which is manifestation of skew Howe $GL_{n}\times…

To find crystals of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ representations of the form $\Lambda^n\text{Sym}^r\mathbb{C}^2$ it suffices to solve the combinatorial problem of decomposing Young's lattice into symmetric, saturated chains. We review the literature…
