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…
We give an explicit raising operator formula for the modified Macdonald polynomials $\tilde{H}_{\mu }(X;q,t)$, which follows from our recent formula for $\nabla$ on an LLT polynomial and the Haglund-Haiman-Loehr formula expressing modified…
In this paper we review and derive hyperbolic and trigonometric double summation addition theorems for Jacobi functions of the first and second kind. In connection with these addition theorems, we perform a full analysis of the relation…
We exhibit a weight-preserving bijection between semi-standard Young tableaux and semi-skyline augmented fillings to provide a combinatorial proof that the Schur functions decompose into nonsymmetric functions indexed by compositions. The…
We introduce an algorithm to describe Pieri's Rule for multiplication of Schubert polynomials. The algorithm uses tower diagrams introduced by the authors and another new algorithm that describes Monk's Rule. Our result is different from…
The Kronecker theta function is a quotient of the Jacobi theta functions, which is also a special case of Ramanujan's $_1\psi_1$ summation. Using the Kronecker theta function as building blocks, we prove a decomposition theorem for theta…
We consider a filtration of the symmetric function space given by $\Lambda^{(k)}_t$, the linear span of Hall-Littlewood polynomials indexed by partitions whose first part is not larger than $k$. We introduce symmetric functions called the…
Some improvements of Young inequality and its reverse for positive numbers with Kontrovich constant are given. Using these inequalities some operator versions and Hilbert-Schmidt norm versions for matrices are proved.
In their study of characters of minimal affinizations of representations of orthogonal and symplectic Lie algebras, Chari and Greenstein conjectured that certain Jacobi-Trudi determinants satisfy an alternating sum formula. In this note, we…
For the Schur polynomials bounded and unbounded generalizations of the Cauchy identities are found.
Using the Jacobi-Trudi identity as a base, we establish parallels between the theory of totally positive integer sequences and Koszul algebras. We then focus on the case of quadric hypersurface rings and use this parallel to construct new…
In this paper, we study the relationship between polynomial integrals on the unitary group and the conjugacy class expansion of symmetric functions in Jucys-Murphy elements. Our main result is an explicit formula for the top coefficients in…
The product $s_\mu s_\nu$ of two Schur functions is one of the most famous examples of a Schur-positive function, i.e. a symmetric function which, when written as a linear combination of Schur functions, has all positive coefficients. We…
Gurevich, Pyatov and Saponov recently stated an expansion for the product of two Schur functions and gave a proof based on the Pluecker relations. Here we show that this identity is in fact a special case of a quite general Schur function…
We give new product formulas for the number of standard Young tableaux of certain skew shapes and for the principal evaluation of the certain Schubert polynomials. These are proved by utilizing symmetries for evaluations of factorial Schur…
The reduced Schur functions are studied. Their relations to the basic representation of $A^(1)_{r-1}$ and modular representations of the symmetric groups are clarified. Littlewood-Richardson coefficients appear in the linear relations among…
We show that the action of classical operators associated to the Macdonald polynomials on the basis of Schur functions, S_{\lambda}[X(t-1)/(q-1)], can be reduced to addition in \lambda-rings. This provides explicit formulas for the…
We introduce partially defined Schur multipliers and obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of extensions to fully defined positive Schur multipliers, in terms of operator systems canonically associated with their…
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…
Let $\Lambda$ be the space of symmetric functions and $V_k$ be the subspace spanned by the modified Schur functions $\{S_\lambda[X/(1-t)]\}_{\lambda_1\leq k}$. We introduce a new family of symmetric polynomials,…
