Schubert coefficients $c_{u,v}^w$ are structure constants describing multiplication of Schubert polynomials. Deciding positivity of Schubert coefficients is a major open problem in Algebraic Combinatorics. We prove a positive rule for this…
Following Lusztig, we consider a Coxeter group $W$ together with a weight function $L$. This gives rise to the pre-order relation $\leq_{L}$ and the corresponding partition of $W$ into left cells. We introduce an equivalence relation on…
We develop a marking system for an analog of Hasse diagrams of intervals $[u,v]$ with $u\leq v$ in a Hermitian symmetric pair $W/W_J$, and use this to create a closed form algorithm for computing relative R-polynomials. The uniform nature…
We compute the expansion of the cohomology class of the permutahedral variety in the basis of Schubert classes. The resulting structure constants $a_w$ are expressed as a sum of \emph{normalized} mixed Eulerian numbers indexed naturally by…
In this paper, we will seek appropriate generators to define the characteristic polynomials of $G(r,1,n)$, and prove that for every finite dimensional representation of $G(r,1,n)$, the characteristic polynomial of $G(r,1,n)$ determines the…
Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system and write $P_W(q)$ for its Poincar\'e series. Lusztig has shown that the quotient $P_W(q^2)/P_W(q)$ is equal to a certain power series $L_{W}(q)$, defined by specializing one variable in the generating…
We prove Lusztig's conjectures P1-P15 for Coxeter groups with complete graph, using deceasing induction on $ \mathbf{a} $-values and a kind of decomposition formula of Kazhdan-Lusztig basis elements. As a byproduct, we give a description of…
We refine an idea of Deodhar, whose goal is a counting formula for Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials. This is a consequence of a simple observation that one can use the solution of Soergel's conjecture to make ambiguities involved in defining…
Wang and Yeh proved that if $P(x)$ is a polynomial with nonnegative and nondecreasing coefficients, then $P(x+d)$ is unimodal for any $d>0$. A mode of a unimodal polynomial $f(x)=a_0+a_1x+\cdots + a_mx^m$ is an index $k$ such that $a_k$ is…
Let C be a one- or two-sided Kazhdan--Lusztig cell in a Coxeter group (W,S), and let Reduced(C) denote the set of reduced expressions of all w in C, regarded as a language over the alphabet S. Casselman has conjectured that Reduced(C) is…
The star operation, originally introduced by Kazhdan and Lusztig, was later specialized by Ernst to the so-called weak star reduction on the set of fully commutative elements of a Coxeter group. In this paper, we classify the star and weak…
Schubert polynomials form a basis of all polynomials and appear in the study of cohomology rings of flag manifolds. The vanishing problem for Schubert polynomials asks if a coefficient of a Schubert polynomial is zero. We give a tableau…
Let T_{n,k}(X) be the characteristic polynomial of the n-th Hecke operator acting on the space of cusp forms of weight k for the full modular group. We show that if there exists n>1 such that T_{n,k}(X) is irreducible and has the full…
We consider the set $\Irr(W)$ of (complex) irreducible characters of a finite Coxeter group $W$. The Kazhdan--Lusztig theory of cells gives rise to a partition of $\Irr(W)$ into "families" and to a natural partial order $\leq_{\cLR}$ on…
Given a word $w(x_{1},\ldots,x_{r})$, i.e., an element in the free group on $r$ elements, and an integer $d\geq1$, we study the characteristic polynomial of the random matrix $w(X_{1},\ldots,X_{r})$, where $X_{i}$ are Haar-random…
To a Coxeter system $(W,S)$ (with $S$ finite) and a weight function $L : W \to \NM$ is associated a partition of $W$ into Kazhdan-Lusztig (left, right or two-sided) $L$-cells. Let $S^\circ = \{s \in S | L(s)=0\}$, $S^+=\{s \in S | L(s) >…
The plethysm coefficient $p(\nu, \mu, \lambda)$ is the multiplicity of the Schur function $s_\lambda$ in the plethysm product $s_\nu \circ s_\mu$. In this paper we use Schur--Weyl duality between wreath products of symmetric groups and the…
Motivated by the concepts of the inverse Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial and the equivariant Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial, Proudfoot defined the equivariant inverse Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial for a matroid. In this paper, we show that the…
We prove that the combinatorial invariance conjecture for parabolic Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials, formulated by Mario Marietti, is equivalent to its restriction to maximal quotients. This equivalence lies at the other extreme in respect to…
We present a formula which relates the Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomial of a matroid $M$, as defined by Elias, Proudfoot and Wakefield, to the Kazhdan--Lusztig polynomials of the matroid obtained by deleting an element, and various contractions…
