For a finite Coxeter system and a subset of its diagram nodes, we define spherical elements (a generalization of Coxeter elements). Conjecturally, for Weyl groups, spherical elements index Schubert varieties in a flag manifold G/B that are…
Considering Schur positivity of differences of plethysms of homogeneous symmetric functions, we introduce a new relation on integer partitions. This relation is conjectured to be a partial order, with its restriction to one part partitions…
We construct a new basis for a slim cyclotomic $q$-Schur algebra $\cysSr$ via symmetric polynomials in Jucys--Murphy operators of the cyclotomic Hecke algebra $\cysHr$. We show that this basis, labelled by matrices, is not the double coset…
We explore some probabilistic applications arising in connections with $K$-theoretic symmetric functions. For instance, we determine certain corner distributions of random lozenge tilings and plane partitions. We also introduce some…
We identify a close relationship between stable sheaf cohomology for polynomial functors applied to the cotangent bundle on projective space, and Koszul--Ringel duality on the category of strict polynomial functors as described in the work…
We introduce the quasi-partition algebra $QP_k(n)$ as a centralizer algebra of the symmetric group. This algebra is a subalgebra of the partition algebra and inherits many similar combinatorial properties. We construct a basis for…
We study the boundary of Teichmueller disks in a partial compactification of Teichmueller space, and their image in Schottky space. We give a broad introduction to Teichmueller disks and explain the relation between Teichmueller curves and…
This paper presents a $q$-analogue of an extension of the tensor algebra given by the same author. This new algebra naturally contains the ordinary tensor algebra and the Iwahori-Hecke algebra type $A$ of infinite degree. Namely this…
We extend the classical Schur-Weyl duality between representations of the groups $SL(n,\C)$ and $\sN$ to the case of $SL(n,\C)$ and the infinite symmetric group $\sinf$. Our construction is based on a "dynamic," or inductive, scheme of…
We establish a q-version of the Schur-Weyl duality, in which the role of the symmetric group is played by the Hecke algebra and the role of the enveloping algebra U(gl(N)) is played by the Reflection Equation algebra, associated with any…
Turner's Conjecture describes all blocks of symmetric groups and Hecke algebras up to derived equivalence in terms of certain double algebras. With a view towards a proof of this conjecture, we develop a general theory of Turner doubles. In…
We introduce an affine Schur algebra via the affine Hecke algebra associated to Weyl group of affine type C. We establish multiplication formulas on the affine Hecke algebra and affine Schur algebra. Then we construct monomial bases and…
The main purpose of this paper is to show that the multiplication of a Schubert polynomial of finite type $A$ by a Schur function, which we refer to as Schubert vs. Schur problem, can be understood from the multiplication in the space of…
We present a new family of quantum Weyl algebras where the polynomial part is the quantum analog of functions on homogeneous spaces corresponding to symmetric matrices, skew symmetric matrices, and the entire space of matrices of a given…
We study the algebra of Weyl modules in types $A$ and $C$ using the methods of arcs over toric degenerations and functional realization of dual space. We compute the generators and relations of this algebra and construct its basis.
The decomposition of polynomials of one vector variable into irreducible modules for the orthogonal group is a crucial result in harmonic analysis which makes use of the Howe duality theorem and leads to the study of spherical harmonics.…
The affine Schur algebra $\widetilde{S}(n,r)$ (of type A) over a field $K$ is defined to be the endomorphism algebra of the tensor space over the extended affine Weyl group of type $A_{r-1}$. By the affine Schur-Weyl duality it is…
Let $\mathcal{S}$ denote the class of functions $f$ which are analytic and univalent in the unit disk ${\mathbb D}=\{z:|z|<1\}$ and normalized with $f(z)=z+\sum_{n=2}^{\infty} a_n z^n$. Using a method based on Grusky coefficients we study…
