We show that canonical bases in $\dot{U}(\mathfrak{sl}_n)$ and the Schur algebra are compatible; in fact we extend this result to $p$-canonical bases. This follows immediately from a fullness result from a functor categorifying this map. In…
In this work, an expansion of Guessab-Schmeisser two points formula for n-times differentiable functions via Fink type identity is established. Generalization of the main result for harmonic sequence of polynomials is established. Several…
We give a new bijective interpretation of the Cauchy identity for Schur operators which is a commutation relation between two formal power series with operator coefficients. We introduce a plactic algebra associated with the Kashiwara's…
In this paper the authors complete their study of the singular Moser-Trudinger embedding [G. Csato and P. Roy, Extremal functions for the singular Moser-Trudinger inequality in 2 dimensions, Calc. Var. Partial Differential Equations, DOI…
We give generalizations and simple proofs of some $q$-identities of Dilcher, Fu and Lascoux related to divisor functions.
A factorial analogue of the supersymmetric Schur functions is introduced. It is shown that factorial versions of the Jacobi--Trudi and Sergeev--Pragacz formulae hold. The results are applied to construct a linear basis in the center of the…
Cylindric skew Schur functions, a generalization of skew Schur functions, are closely related to the famous problem finding a combinatorial formula for the 3-point Gromov-Witten invariants of Grassmannian. In this paper, we prove cylindric…
We prove a conjecture of Cuttler et al.~[2011] [A. Cuttler, C. Greene, and M. Skandera; \emph{Inequalities for symmetric means}. European J. Combinatorics, 32(2011), 745--761] on the monotonicity of \emph{normalized Schur functions} under…
We obtain a three-parameter $q$-series identity that generalizes two results of Chan and Mao. By specializing our identity, we derive new results of combinatorial significance in connection with $N(r, s, m, n)$, a function counting certain…
We classify and construct all multiplicity-free plethystic products of Schur functions. We also compute many new (infinite) families of plethysm coefficients, with particular emphasis on those near maximal in the dominance ordering and…
We obtain some simple relations between decomposition numbers of quantized Schur algebras at an n-th root of unity (over a field of characteristic 0). These relations imply that every decomposition number for such an algebra occurs as a…
We extend Agler's notion of a function algebra defined in terms of test functions to include products, in analogy with the practice in real algebraic geometry, and hence the term preordering in the title. This is done over abstract sets and…
Using the vertex operator representations for symplectic and orthogonal Schur functions, we define two families of symmetric functions and show thatthey are the skew symplectic and skew orthogonal Schur polynomials defined implicitly by…
A question proposed by Kimura and proved by Ruehr, Kimura and others in 1980 states that for any function $f$ continuous on $[-\frac{1}{2}, \frac{3}{2}]$ one has $$ \int_{-1/2}^{3/2} f(3x^2 - 2x^3) dx = 2 \int_0^1 f(3x^2 - 2x^3) dx. $$ In…
We obtain a new formula to relate the value of a Schur polynomial with variables $(x_1,\ldots,x_N)$ with values of Schur polynomials at $(1,\ldots,1)$. This allows to study the limit shape of perfect matchings on a square hexagon lattice…
Let $G$ be a central product of two groups $H$ and $K$. We study second cohomology group of $G$, having coefficients in a divisible abelian group $D$ with trivial $G$-action, in terms of the second cohomology groups of certain quotients of…
We give geometric descriptions of the category C_k(n,d) of rational polynomial representations of GL_n over a field k of degree d for d less than or equal to n, the Schur functor and Schur-Weyl duality. The descriptions and proofs use a…
A combinatorial identity that was needed in Ahlgren and Ono's proof of a certain congruence conjecture of Frits Beukers is stated, and a pointer to its WZ proof is given.
We study the Kronecker product of two Schur functions $s_\lambda\ast s_\mu$, defined as the image of the characteristic map of the product of two $S_n$ irreducible characters. We prove special cases of a conjecture of Monical--Tokcan--Yong…
A Schur multiplier is a linear map on matrices which acts on its entries by multiplication with some function, called the symbol. We consider idempotent Schur multipliers, whose symbols are indicator functions of smooth Euclidean domains.…
