We give combinatorial proofs that certain families of differences of products of Schur functions are monomial-positive. We show in addition that such monomial-positivity is to be expected of a large class of generating functions with…
This article focuses on those aspects about partial actions of groups which are related to Schur's theory on projective representations. It provides an exhaustive description of the partial Schur multiplier, and this result is achieved by…
The symmetric Grothendieck polynomials generalize Schur polynomials and are Schur-positive by degree. Combinatorially this is manifested as the generalization of semistandard Young tableaux by set-valued tableaux. We define a (weak)…
We give a combinatorial proof that the product of a Schubert polynomial by a Schur polynomial is a nonnegative sum of Schubert polynomials. Our proof uses Assaf's theory of dual equivalence to show that a quasisymmetric function of Bergeron…
In this work we explore the structure of the branching graph of the unitary group using Schur transitions. We find that these transitions suggest a new combinatorial expression for counting paths in the branching graph. This formula, which…
Motivated by work of R.M. Green, we obtain a presentation of Schur algebras (both the classical and quantized versions) in terms of generators and relations. The presentation is compatible with the usual presentation of the (quantized or…
Reiner, Shaw and van Willigenburg showed that if two skew Schur functions s_A and s_B are equal, then the skew shapes A and B must have the same "row overlap partitions." Here we show that these row overlap equalities are also implied by a…
We obtain a presentation of Schur algebras (and q-Schur algebras) by generators and relations which is compatible with the usual presentation of the enveloping algebra (quantized enveloping algebra) corresponding to the Lie algebra gl(n) of…
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…
We use category theory to propose a unified approach to the Schur-Weyl dualities involving the general linear Lie algebras, their polynomial extensions and associated quantum deformations. We define multiplicative sequences of algebras…
An identity is derived expressing Schur functions as sums over products of pairs of Schur $Q$-functions, generalizing previously known special cases. This is shown to follow from their representations as vacuum expectation values (VEV's) of…
This is a short note about Schur positivity. We introduce Schur polynomials and explain how they appear in the representation theory of the general linear group. We end with a new result of the author with F. Bergeron and V. Reiner that…
We define a D_0 graph to be a graph whose vertex set is a subset of permutations of n, with edges of the form ...bac... <--> ...bca... or ...acb... <--> ...cab... (Knuth transformations), or ...bac... <--> ...acb... or ...bca... <-->…
We use a unified elementary approach to prove the second part of classical, mixed, super, and mixed super Schur-Weyl dualities for general linear groups and supergroups over an infinite ground field of arbitrary characteristic. These…
We define universal factorial Schur $P,Q$-functions and their duals, which specialize to generalized (co)-homology "Schubert basis" for loop spaces of the classical groups. We also investigate some of their properties.
We define a generic multiplication in quantised Schur algebras and thus obtain a new algebra structure in the Schur algebras. We prove that via a modified version of the map from quantum groups to quantised Schur algebras, defined by A. A.…
We provide the special values of the skew version of the $K$-theoretic Schur $P$- and $Q$-functions. Using these special values, we show an oddness property of the number of shifted set-valued skew tableaux. Additionally, we generalize…
We develop a quasisymmetric analogue of the theory of Schubert cycles, building off of our previous work on a quasisymmetric analogue of Schubert polynomials and divided differences. Our constructions result in a natural geometric…
We define and study new classes of quasi-hereditary and cellular algebras which generalize Turner's double algebras. Turner's algebras provide a local description of blocks of symmetric groups up to derived equivalence. Our general…
Egge, Loehr and Warrington gave in \cite{ELW} a combinatorial formula that permits to convert the expansion of a symmetric function, homogeneous of degree $n$, in terms of Gessel's fundamental quasisymmetric functions into an expansion in…
