In a recent paper, the authors introduced a new basis of the ring of symmetric functions which evaluate to the irreducible characters of the symmetric group at roots of unity. The structure coefficients for this new basis are the stable…
Over the real numbers, the Kronecker sum is the unique operation on matrices which exponentiates to the Kronecker product. Kronecker quotients provide an algebraic view of decompositions of matrices in terms of Kronecker products. This…
We define solvable quantum mechanical systems on a Hilbert space spanned by bipartite ribbon graphs with a fixed number of edges. The Hilbert space is also an associative algebra, where the product is derived from permutation group…
We give new bounds and asymptotic estimates for Kronecker and Littlewood--Richardson coefficients. Notably, we resolve Stanley's questions on the shape of partitions attaining the largest Kronecker and Littlewood--Richardson coefficients.…
The plethysms of the Weyl characters associated to a classical Lie group by the symmetric functions stabilize in large rank. In the case of a power sum plethysm, we prove that the coefficients of the decomposition of this stabilized form on…
The Newell-Littlewood numbers $N_{\mu,\nu,\lambda}$ are tensor product multiplicities of Weyl modules for classical Lie groups, in the stable limit. For which triples of partitions $(\mu,\nu,\lambda)$ does $N_{\mu,\nu,\lambda}>0$ hold? The…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let $\mathcal{C} = \mathcal{R}-mod$ be the category of finite-dimensional modules over a fixed Hopf algebra over $k$. One may form the wreath product categories…
A group-category is an additively semisimple category with a monoidal product structure in which the simple objects are invertible. For example in the category of representations of a group, 1-dimensional representations are the invertible…
In recent years, a class of dictionaries have been proposed for multidimensional (tensor) data representation that exploit the structure of tensor data by imposing a Kronecker structure on the dictionary underlying the data. In this work, a…
We study the remarkable Saxl conjecture which states that tensor squares of certain irreducible representations of the symmetric groups S_n contain all irreducibles as their constituents. Our main result is that they contain representations…
The problem of computing products of Schubert classes in the cohomology ring can be formulated as the problem of expanding skew Schur polynomials into the basis of ordinary Schur polynomials. In contrast, the problem of computing the…
We present a way of computing Kronecker coefficients that uses a new family of rational convex polytopes, called column-row polytopes. We give several different formulas for the computation. They are alternating sums of numbers of integer…
We prove a conjecture of Stembridge concerning stability of Kronecker coefficients that vastly generalizes Murnaghan's theorem. The main idea is to identify the sequences of Kronecker coefficients in question with Hilbert functions of…
We present a criterion for multiplicity-freeness of the decomposition of the restriction Res$^G_H(\rho_1 \otimes \rho_2)$ of the Kronecker product of two generic irreducible representations $\rho_1, \rho_2$ of a finite group $G$ with…
We introduce a real-parameter refinement of the classical integer hierarchies underlying Schmidt number, block-positivity, and $k$-positivity for maps between matrix algebras. Starting from a compact family of $\alpha$-admissible unit…
A numerical algorithm that computes the decomposition of any finite-dimen\-sio\-nal unitary reducible representation of a compact Lie group is presented. The algorithm, which does not rely on an algebraic insight on the group structure, is…
We give a positive combinatorial formula for the Kronecker coefficient g_{lambda mu(d) nu} for any partitions lambda, nu of n and hook shape mu(d) := (n-d,1^d). Our main tool is Haiman's \emph{mixed insertion}. This is a generalization of…
In this paper we introduce the notion of a 'generalised' co-slicing of a triangulated category. This generalises the theory of co-stability conditions in a manner analogous to the way in which Gorodentsev, Kuleshov and Rudakov's…
We revisit Gauss composition over a general base scheme, with a focus on orthogonal groups. We show that the Clifford and norm functors provide a discriminant-preserving equivalence of categories between binary quadratic modules and…
The partition algebras are algebras of diagrams (which contain the group algebra of the symmetric group and the Brauer algebra) such that the multiplication is given by a combinatorial rule and such that the structure constants of the…
