In this paper we use the combinatorics of alcove walks to give a uniform combinatorial formula for Macdonald polynomials for all Lie types. These formulas are generalizations of the formulas of Haglund-Haiman-Loehr for Macdonald polynoimals…

Haglund's conjecture states that $\dfrac{\langle J_{\lambda}(q,q^k),s_\mu \rangle}{(1-q)^{|\lambda|}} \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}[q]$ for all partitions $\lambda,\mu$ and all non-negative integers $k$, where $J_{\lambda}$ is the integral form…

We present an operator approach to Rogers-type formulas and Mehler's formulas for the Al-Salam-Carlitz polynomials $U_n(x,y,a;q)$. By using the q-exponential operator, we obtain a Rogers-type formula which leads to a linearization formula.…

We give an explicit formula for an operator that sends a wreath Macdonald polynomial to the delta function at a character associated to its partition. This allows us to prove many new results for wreath Macdonald polynomials, especially…

We obtain new combinatorial formulae for modified Hall--Littlewood polynomials, for matrix elements of the transition matrix between the elementary symmetric functions and Hall-Littlewood's ones, and for the number of rational points over…

The ring of symmetric functions $\Lambda$, with natural basis given by the Schur functions, arise in many different areas of mathematics. For example, as the cohomology ring of the grassmanian, and as the representation ring of the…

We present an explicit formula for the transition matrix $\mathcal{C}$ from the type $C_n$ degeneration of the Koornwinder polynomials $P_{(1^r)}(x\,|\,a,-a,c,-c\,|\,q,t)$ with one column diagrams, to the type $C_n$ monomial symmetric…

We prove a strong factorization property of interpolation Macdonald polynomials when $q$ tends to $1$. As a consequence, we show that Macdonald polynomials have a strong factorization property when $q$ tends to $1$, which was posed as an…

The n-point correlation functions introduced by Bloch and Okounkov have already found several geometric connections and algebraic generalizations. In this Note we formulate a q,t-deformation of this n-point function. The key operator used…

We examine the non-symmetric Macdonald polynomials $E_\lambda(x;q,t)$ at $q=1$, as well as the more general permuted-basement Macdonald polynomials. When $q=1$, we show that $E_\lambda(x;1,t)$ is symmetric and independent of $t$ whenever…

Using the Lax operator formalism, we construct a family of pairwise commuting operators such that the Macdonald symmetric functions of infinitely many variables and of two parameters $q,t$ are their eigenfunctions. We express our operators…

In a previous paper J.-G. Luque and the author (Sem. Loth. Combin. 2011) developed the theory of nonsymmetric Macdonald polynomials taking values in an irreducible module of the Hecke algebra of the symmetric group $\mathcal{S}_{N}$. The…

We give a Littlewood-Richardson type rule for expanding the product of a row-strict quasisymmetric Schur function and a symmetric Schur function in terms of row-strict quasisymmetric Schur functions. We then discuss a family of polynomials…

We study the space, $R_m$, of $m$-symmetric functions consisting of polynomials that are symmetric in the variables $x_{m+1},x_{m+2},x_{m+3},\dots$ but have no special symmetry in the variables $x_1,\dots,x_m$. We obtain $m$-symmetric…

We construct a new class of operators that act on symmetric functions with two deformation parameters $q$ and $t$. Our combinatorial construction associates each operator with a specific lattice path, whose steps alternate between moving up…

We give the explicit analytic development of Macdonald polynomials in terms of "modified complete" and elementary symmetric functions. These expansions are obtained by inverting the Pieri formula. Specialization yields similar developments…

In this paper we prove a new combinatorial formula for the modified Macdonald polynomials $\widetilde{H}_\lambda(X;q,t)$, motivated by connections to the theory of interacting particle systems from statistical mechanics. The formula…

Macdonald defined two-parameter Kostka functions K_{\lambda\mu}(q,t) where \lambda, \mu are partitions. The main purpose of this paper is to extend his definition to include all compositions as indices. Following Macdonald, we conjecture…

Let $\Lambda$ be the space of symmetric functions and $V_k$ be the subspace spanned by the modified Schur functions $\{S_\lambda[X/(1-t)]\}_{\lambda_1\leq k}$. We introduce a new family of symmetric polynomials,…

Macdonald polynomials are orthogonal polynomials associated to root systems, and in the type A case, the symmetric kind is a common generalization of Schur functions, Macdonald spherical functions, and Jack polynomials. We use the…
