We determine the precise conditions under which any skew Schur function is equal to a Schur function over both infinitely and finitely many variables.

Let $\mathcal{A}$ denote the set of all analytic functions $f$ in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}:=\{z \in \mathbb{C}: |z| < 1\}$ normalized by $f (0) = 0$ and $f'(0) = 1.$ The logarithmic coefficients $\gamma_n$ of $f \in \mathcal{A}$ are…

A Schur-class function in $d$ variables is defined to be an analytic contractive-operator valued function on the unit polydisk. Such a function is said to be in the Schur--Agler class if it is contractive when evaluated on any commutative…

In this paper we obtain some explicit expressions for the Euler characteristic of a rank n coherent sheaf F on P^N and of its twists F(t) as polynomials in the Chern classes c_i(F), also giving algorithms for the computation. The employed…

Fractons are anyons classified into equivalence classes and they obey a specific fractal statistics. The equivalence classes are labeled by a fractal parameter or Hausdorff dimension $h$. We consider this approach in the context of the…

In this paper, we show that the Carath\'{e}odory function $\varphi_{\scriptscriptstyle {Ne}}(z)=1+z-z^3/3$ maps the open unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ onto the interior of the nephroid, a $2$-cusped kidney-shaped curve, \begin{align*}…

The Schur function indexed by a partition lambda with at most n parts is the sum of the weight monomials for the Young tableaux of shape lambda. Let pi be an n-permutation. We give two descriptions of the tableaux that contribute their…

We study the asymptotics of Schur polynomials with partitions $\lambda$ which are almost staircase; more precisely, partitions that differ from $((m-1)(N-1),(m-1)(N-2),\ldots,(m-1),0)$ by at most one component at the beginning as…

Singularities of even smooth functions are studied. A classification of singular points which appear in typical parametric families of even functions with at most five parameters is given. Bifurcations of singular points near a caustic…

Closed forms for $f_{\lambda,i} (q) := \sum_{\tau \in SYT(\lambda) : des(\tau) = i} q^{maj(\tau)}$, the distribution of the major index over standard Young tableaux of given shapes and specified number of descents, are established for a…

There is a universal constant $0<r_0<1$ with the following property. Suppose that $f$ is an analytic function on the unit disk $\D$, and suppose that there exists a constant $M>0$ so that the Euclidean area, counting multiplicity, of the…

In this paper we study the class $\mathcal{U}$ of functions that are analytic in the open unit disk ${\mathbb D}=\{z:|z|<1\}$, normalized such that $f(0)=f'(0)-1=0$ and satisfy \[\left|\left [\frac{z}{f(z)} \right]^{2}f'(z)-1…

Cylindric skew Schur functions, which are a generalisation of skew Schur functions, arise naturally in the study of P-partitions. Also, recent work of A. Postnikov shows they have a strong connection with a problem of considerable current…

We provide a formula for every Schur coefficient in the chromatic symmetric function of a graph in terms of special rim hook tabloids. This formula is useful in confirming the non-Schur positivity of the chromatic symmetric function of a…

Let mu be a probability measure on the Borelian sigma-algebra of the unit circle. Then we associate a Schur function theta in the unit disk with mu and give characterizations of the case that mu is a Helson-Szeg\"o measure in terms of the…

We study a linear map on symmetric functions that ``divides'' a partition by a positive integer $k$, sending a Schur function indexed by a partition of $kn$ to a symmetric function indexed by partitions of $n$. We determine its Schur…

The immaculate functions, $\mathfrak{S}_{\alpha}$, were introduced as a Schur-like basis for $\operatorname{\mathsf{Nsym}}$. We investigate facts about their structure constants. These are analogues of Littlewood-Richardson coefficents. We…

Let $\mathcal{S}$ denote the family of all functions that are analytic and univalent in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}:=\{z: |z|<1\}$ and satisfy $f(0)=f^{\prime}(0)-1=0$. In the present paper, we consider certain subclasses of univalent…

The reduced Schur functions are studied. Their relations to the basic representation of $A^(1)_{r-1}$ and modular representations of the symmetric groups are clarified. Littlewood-Richardson coefficients appear in the linear relations among…

In this expository paper we describe the study of certain non-self-adjoint operator algebras, the Hardy algebras, and their representation theory. We view these algebras as algebras of (operator valued) functions on their spaces of…
