We construct a lift of Schur's Q-functions to the peak algebra of the symmetric group, called the noncommutative Schur Q-functions, and extract from them a new natural basis with several nice properties such as the positive right-Pieri…

We apply the iterative nonlinear programming method, previously proposed in our earlier work, to optimize Schur test functions and thereby provide refined upper bounds for the norms of integral operators. As an illustration, we derive such…

We consider a type of divided symmetrization $\overrightarrow{D}_{\lambda,G}$ where $\lambda$ is a nonincreasing partition on $n$ and where $G$ is a graph. We discover that in the case where $\lambda$ is a hook shape partition with first…

We define an equivalence relation on integer compositions and show that two ribbon Schur functions are identical if and only if their defining compositions are equivalent in this sense. This equivalence is completely determined by means of…

In this paper we classify when (row-strict) dual immaculate functions and (row-strict) extended Schur functions, as well as their skew generalizations, are symmetric. We also classify when their natural variants, termed advanced functions,…

In arXiv:2206.00549, transference results between multilinear Fourier and Schur multipliers on noncommutative $L_p$-spaces were shown for unimodular groups. We propose a suitable extension of the definition of multilinear Fourier…

The determinantal identities of Hamel and Goulden have recently been shown to apply to a tableau-based ninth variation of skew Schur functions. Here we extend this approach and its results to the analogous tableau-based ninth variation of…

We provide a non-recursive, combinatorial classification of multiplicity-free skew Schur polynomials. These polynomials are $GL_n$, and $SL_n$, characters of the skew Schur modules. Our result extends work of H. Thomas--A. Yong, and C.…

Schubert polynomials are a basis for the polynomial ring that represent Schubert classes for the flag manifold. In this paper, we introduce and develop several new combinatorial models for Schubert polynomials that relate them to other…

We investigate the connections between various noncommutative analogues of Hall-Littlewood and Macdonald polynomials, and define some new families of noncommutative symmetric functions depending on two sequences of parameters.

We introduce a new basis for quasisymmetric functions, which arise from a specialization of nonsymmetric Macdonald polynomials to standard bases, also known as Demazure atoms. Our new basis is called the basis of quasisymmetric Schur…
