The chromatic polynomial and its generalization, the chromatic symmetric function, are two important graph invariants. Celebrated theorems of Birkhoff, Whitney, and Stanley show how both objects can be expressed in three different ways: as…

The plethysm product of Schur functions corresponds to composing polynomial representations of infinite general linear groups. Finding the plethysm coefficients $\langle s_\nu \circ s_\mu, s_\lambda\rangle$ that express an arbitrary…

Let $k$ and $m$ be positive integers and $\lambda/\mu$ a skew partition. We compute the principal specialization of the skew Schur polynomials $s_{\lambda /\mu}(x_1, \ldots, x_{k})$ modulo $q^m-1$ under suitable conditions. We interpret the…

Fix an integer $t \geq 2$ and a primitive $t^{\text{th}}$ root of unity $\omega$. We consider the specialized skew hook Schur polynomial $\text{hs}_{\lambda/\mu}(X,\omega X,\dots,\omega^{t-1}X/Y,\omega Y,\dots,\omega^{t-1}Y)$, where…

We examine a few families of semistandard Young tableaux, for which we observe the cyclic sieving phenomenon under promotion. The first family we consider consists of stretched hook shapes, where we use the cocharge generating polynomial as…

We define a number of related combinatorial objects, each of which possesses a surprising symmetry. We include several applications such as a combinatorial explanation for certain fixed points of the involution $\omega$ on the ring of…

We show that representations of convolution algebras such as Lustzig's graded affine Hecke algebra or the quiver Hecke algebra and quiver Schur algebra in (affine) type A can be realised in terms of certain equivariant motivic sheaves…

A graph is Schur-positive if its chromatic symmetric function expands nonnegatively in the Schur basis. All claw-free graphs are conjectured to be Schur-positive. We introduce a combinatorial object corresponding to a graph G, called a…

We provide new Schmidt-type results through an investigation of two bijections, which are results involving partitions with parts counted only at given indices. Mork's bijection, the first of these, was originally given as a proof of…

Schubert polynomials were discovered by A. Lascoux and M. Sch\"utzenberger in the study of cohomology rings of flag manifolds in 1980's. These polynomials generalize Schur polynomials, and form a linear basis of multivariate polynomials. In…
