We consider certain scalar product of symmetric functions which is parameterized by a function $r$ and an integer $n$. One the one hand we have a fermionic representation of this scalar product. On the other hand we get a representation of…

We introduce a ring of noncommutative shifted symmetric functions based on an integer-indexed sequence of shift parameters. Using generating series and quasideterminants, this multiparameter approach produces deformations of the ring of…

We develop a noncommutative analogue of the spectral decomposition with the quasideterminant defined by I. Gelfand and V. Retakh. In this theory, by introducing a noncommutative Lagrange interpolating polynomial and combining a…

We show that certain determinantal functions of multiple matrices, when summed over the symmetries of the cube, decompose into functions of the original matrices. These are shown to be true in complete generality; that is, no properties of…

The richly developed theory of complex manifolds plays important roles in our understanding of holomorphic functions in several complex variables. It is natural to consider manifolds that will play similar roles in the theory of holomorphic…

We present a simple proof of the factorization of (complex) symmetric matrices into a product of a square matrix and its transpose, and discuss its application in establishing a uniqueness property of certain antilinear operators.

Spectral functions of symmetric matrices -- those depending on matrices only through their eigenvalues -- appear often in optimization. A cornerstone variational analytic tool for studying such functions is a formula relating their…

We continue our development of a new basis for the algebra of non-commutative symmetric functions. This basis is analogous to the Schur basis for the algebra of symmetric functions, and it shares many of its wonderful properties. For…

A symmetric function of $N$ variables can be given in terms of symmetric polynomials of these variables. We determine those symmetric polynomials in which the dual differential operators take the neatest form when expressed in terms of our…

We investigate the geode and some of its generalizations from the point of view on noncommutative symmetric functions.

This is an introductory paper about our recent merge of a noncommutative de Finetti type result with representations of the infinite braid and symmetric group which allows to derive factorization properties from symmetries. We explain some…

We prove conjectures of the third author [L. Tevlin, Proc. FPSAC'07, Tianjin] on two new bases of noncommutative symmetric functions: the transition matrices from the ribbon basis have nonnegative integral coefficients. This is done by…

We introduce a new basis of the non-commutative symmetric functions whose commutative images are Schur functions. Dually, we build a basis of the quasi-symmetric functions which expand positively in the fundamental quasi-symmetric functions…

In this paper we show how the superquadratic functions can be used as a tool for researching other types of convex functions like $\phi $-convexity, strong-convexity and uniform convexity. We show how to use inequalities satisfied by…

We give a new method for the evaluation of a class of integrals of rational symmetric functions in N pairs of variables {x_a, y_a}_{a=1,... N} arising in coupled matrix models, valid for a broad class of two-variable measures. The result is…

We present the basic elements of a generalization of symmetric function theory involving functions of commuting and anticommuting (Grassmannian) variables. These new functions, called symmetric functions in superspace, are invariant under…

We show how our recent results on compositions of d.c. functions (and mappings) imply positive results on extensions of d.c. functions (and mappings). Examples answering two natural relevant questions are presented. Two further theorems,…

We provide a combinatorial interpretation of the reduced composition polynomials of Ardila and Doker [Adv. Appl. Math. 50 (2013), 607], and relate them to the $(1-q)$-transform of noncommutative symmetric functions.
