The central object of study is a formal power series that we call the content series, a symmetric function involving an arbitrary underlying formal power series $f$ in the contents of the cells in a partition. In previous work we have shown…

If A is an algebra of functions on X, there are many cases when X can be regarded as included in Hom(A,C) as the set of ring homomorphisms. In this paper the corresponding results for the symmetric products of X are introduced. It is shown…

We consider symmetric polynomials, p, in the noncommutative free variables (x_1, x_2, ..., x_g). We define the noncommutative complex hessian of p and we call a noncommutative symmetric polynomial noncommutative plurisubharmonic if it has a…

We study the stochastic six-vertex model in half-space with generic integrable boundary weights, and define two families of multivariate rational symmetric functions. Using commutation relations between double-row operators, we prove a skew…

We introduce and study a generalization $s_{(\mu|\lambda)}$ of the Schur functions called the almost symmetric Schur functions. These functions simultaneously generalize the finite variable key polynomials and the infinite variable Schur…

In the Hopf algebra of symmetric functions, Sym, the basis of Schur functions is distinguished since every Schur function is isomorphic to an irreducible character of a symmetric group under the Frobenius characteristic map. In this note we…

A generating function of the number of homomorphisms from the fundamental group of a compact oriented or non-orientable surface without boundary into a finite group is obtained in terms of an integral over a real group algebra. We calculate…

We define and study symmetrized and antisymmetrized multivariate exponential functions. They are defined as determinants and antideterminants of matrices whose entries are exponential functions of one variable. These functions are…

In this paper we propose and study few applications of the base structured categories $\mathcal{X} \rtimes_{\mathbf{F}} \mathbf{C}$, $\int_{\mathbf{C}} \bar{\mathbf{F}}$, $\mathcal{X} \rtimes_{\mathbb{F}} \mathbf{C}$ and ${\int_{\mathbf{C}}…

We consider the expansion of the square of a complete homogeneous function $h_\lambda$, or of an elementary symmetric function $e_\lambda$, in the basis of Schur functions. This square also decomposes into two plethysms, $s_2[h_\lambda]$…

Let X be a homogeneous tree of degree q+1 (for q between 2 and infinity) and let f be a complex function on X times X for which f(x,y) only depend on the distance between x and y in X. Our main result gives a necessary and sufficient…

We introduce a basis of the symmetric functions that evaluates to the (irreducible) characters of the symmetric group, just as the Schur functions evaluate to the irreducible characters of $GL_n$ modules. Our main result gives three…

We introduce a ring of noncommutative shifted symmetric functions based on an integer-indexed sequence of shift parameters. Using generating series and quasideterminants, this multiparameter approach produces deformations of the ring of…

In this work we will show that if $F$ is a positive integer, then ${\mathrm{Sat}}(F)=\{S\mid S \mbox{ is a saturated numerical semigroup with Frobenius number } F\}$ is a covariety. As a consequence, we present two algorithms: one that…

Like its precursor this paper is concerned with the Hopf algebra of noncommutative symmetric functions and its graded dual, the Hopf algebra of quasisymmetric functions. It complements and extends the previous paper but is also…

We prove a result that relates the number of homomorphisms from the fundamental group of a compact nonorientable surface to a finite group $G$, where conjugacy classes of the boundary components of the surface must map to prescribed…

Petrie symmetric functions $G(k,n)$, also known as truncated homogeneous symmetric functions or modular complete symmetric functions, form a class of symmetric functions interpolating between the elementary symmetric functions $e_n$ and the…

For any set representation (permutation representation) of the symmetric group $S_n$, we give combinatorial interpretation for coefficients of its Frobenius character expanded in the basis of monomial symmetric functions.

A special case of a fundamental result of Loewner and Horn [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 1969] says that given an integer $n \geq 1$, if the entrywise application of a smooth function $f : (0,\infty) \to \mathbb{R}$ preserves the set of $n…

Let ${\bf G}$ be a simply connected semisimple algebraic group over $\Bbbk=\bar{\mathbb{F}}_q$, the algebraically closure of $\mathbb{F}_q$ (the finite field with $q=p^e$ elements), and $F$ be the standard Frobenius map. Let ${\bf B}$ be an…
