In 2000, Kadell gave an orthogonality conjecture for a symmetric function generalization of the Zeilberger--Bressoud $q$-Dyson theorem or the $q$-Dyson constant term identity. This conjecture was proved by K\'{a}rolyi, Lascoux and Warnaar…
We study properties of the forgotten monoid which appeared in work of Lascoux and Schutzenberger and recently resurfaced in the construction of dual equivalence graphs by Assaf. In particular, we provide an explicit characterization of the…
In this paper the number of isomorphism classes of the right transversals of the symmetric group $\Sigma_{n-1}$ in the symmetric group $\Sigma_n$ is calculated. This result together with the techniques employed along the paper may be used…
The noncommutative symmetric functions $\textbf{NSym}$ were first defined abstractly by Gelfand et al. in 1995 as the free associative algebra generated by noncommuting indeterminants $\{\boldsymbol{e}_n\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ that were taken…
Gorsky and Negut introduced operators $Q_{m,n}$ on symmetric functions and conjectured that, in the case where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime, the expression ${Q}_{m,n}(1)$ is given by the Hikita polynomial ${H}_{m,n}[X;q,t]$. Later,…
Over the past years, major attention has been drawn to the question of identifying Schur-positive sets, i.e. sets of permutations whose associated quasisymmetric function is symmetric and can be written as a non-negative sum of Schur…
The $B$-polynomial defined by J. Awan and O. Bernardi is a generalization of Tutte Polynomial to digraphs. In this paper, we solve an open question raised by J. Awan and O. Bernardi regarding the expansion of $B$-polynomial in elementary…
Our objective is to usher and investigate the subclass$\widetilde{\mathcal{S^{*}_{\sum}}}^{\eta}_{q}(\mu,\lambda;\phi)$ of the function class $\sum$ of analytic and bi-univalent functions related with the symmetric $q$-derivative operator…
Biserial algebras are a classical class in the representation theory of algebras, generalizing Nakayama algebras. They were further generalized by Green and Schroll to multiserial algebras, which share many structural properties with…
As a natural basis of the Hopf algebra of quasisymmetric functions, monomial quasisymmetric functions are formal power series defined from compositions. The same definition applies to left weak compositions, while leads to divergence for…
We attempt to explain the ubiquity of tableaux and of Pieri and Cauchy formulae for combinatorially defined families of symmetric functions. We show that such formulae are to be expected from symmetric functions arising from representations…
Using the combinatorics of $\alpha$-unimodal sets, we establish two new results in the theory of quasisymmetric functions. First, we obtain the expansion of the fundamental basis into quasisymmetric power sums. Secondly, we prove that…
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…
Inequalities among symmetric polynomial functions are fundamental questions in mathematics and have various applications in science and engineering. This paper investigates a beautiful and inspiring conjecture, proposed by Cuttler, Greene…
We prove that the subset of quasisymmetric polynomials conjectured by Bergeron and Reutenauer to be a basis for the coinvariant space of quasisymmetric polynomials is indeed a basis. This provides the first constructive proof of the…
Introduced by Goulden and Jackson in their 1996 paper, the matchings-Jack conjecture and the hypermap-Jack conjecture (also known as the $b$-conjecture) are two major open questions relating Jack symmetric functions, the representation…
Let $\mathscr{A}$ be a unital C$^*$-algebra and $E_n$ be the Hilbert $\mathscr{A}$-module defined as the completion of the $\mathscr{A}$-valued Schwartz function space $\mathcal{S}^\mathscr{A}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ with respect to the norm…
We construct bases of quasi-symmetric functions whose product rule is given by the shuffle of binary words, as for multiple zeta values in their integral representations, and then extend the construction to the algebra of free…
We apply the Lie-group formalism and the nonclassical method due to Bluman and Cole to deduce symmetries of the generalized Boussinesq equation, which has the classical Boussinesq equation as an special case. We study the class of functions…
In a paper by Lin an interesting family of semipermutations comes out to index the elements of a cohomology basis of a Hessenberg type variety. The corresponding Betti numbers are a generalization of Eulerian numbers. We show three…
