We conjecture a combinatorial formula for the monomial expansion of the image of any Schur function under the Bergeron-Garsia nabla operator. The formula involves nested labeled Dyck paths weighted by area and a suitable "diagonal…

We study generalizations of Schur functors from categories consisting of flags of vector spaces. We give different descriptions of the category of such functors in terms of representations of certain combinatorial categories and infinite…

In this article, the self-adjoint extensions of symmetric operators satisfying anti-commutation relations are considered. It is proven that an anti-commutative type of the Glimm-Jaffe-Nelson commutator theorem follows. Its application to an…

We prove that any three-point genus zero Gromov-Witten invariant on a type A Grassmannian is equal to a classical intersection number on a two-step flag variety. We also give symplectic and orthogonal analogues of this result; in these…

We give a new description of the Pieri rule for k-Schur functions using the Bruhat order on the affine type-A Weyl group. In doing so, we prove a new combinatorial formula for representatives of the Schubert classes for the cohomology of…

We begin a study of Schur analysis in the setting of the Grassmann algebra, when the latter is completed with respect to the $1$-norm. We focus on the rational case. We start with a theorem on invertibility in the completed algebra, and…

Sufficient conditions for comparing the convolutions of heterogeneous gamma random variables in terms of the usual stochastic order are established. Such comparisons are characterized by the Schur convexity properties of the cumulative…

We study k-Schur functions characterized by k-tableaux, proving combinatorial properties such as a k-Pieri rule and a k-conjugation. This new approach relies on developing the theory of k-tableaux, and includes the introduction of a…

Let $G$ be a finite group and let $N/E$ be a tamely ramified $G$-Galois extension of number fields. We show how Stickelberger's factorization of Gauss sums can be used to determine the stable isomorphism class of various arithmetic…

Given a Schubert class on $Gr(k,V)$ where $V$ is a symplectic vector space of dimension $2n$, we consider its restriction to the symplectic Grassmannian $SpGr(k,V)$ of isotropic subspaces. Pragacz gave tableau formulae for positively…

We introduce a family of rings of symmetric functions depending on an infinite sequence of parameters. A distinguished basis of such a ring is comprised by analogues of the Schur functions. The corresponding structure coefficients are…

A proof of Sharkovsky's Theorem is given. It is shown how this proof naturally generalizes to looking at maps on graphs and to Sharkovsky-type theorems for these maps. The paper is written at an elementary level and is meant as an…

Let R_n be the ring of coinvariants for the diagonal action of the symmetric group S_n. It is known that the character of R_n as a doubly-graded S_n module can be expressed using the Frobenius characteristic map as \nabla e_n, where e_n is…
