We prove that every supersymmetric Schur polynomial has a saturated Newton polytope (SNP). Our approach begins with a tableau-theoretic description of the support, which we encode as a polyhedron with a totally unimodular constraint matrix.…

Symmetric Grothendieck polynomials are inhomogeneous versions of Schur polynomials that arise in combinatorial $K$-theory. A polynomial has saturated Newton polytope (SNP) if every lattice point in the polytope is an exponent vector. We…

A polynomial has saturated Newton polytope (SNP) if every lattice point of the convex hull of its exponent vectors corresponds to a monomial. We compile instances of SNP in algebraic combinatorics (some with proofs, others conjecturally):…

The M-convexity of dual Schubert polynomials was first proven by Huh, Matherne, M\'esz\'aros, and St. Dizier in 2022. We give a full characterization of the supports of dual Schubert polynomials, which yields an elementary alternative proof…

We prove that double Schubert polynomials have the Saturated Newton Polytope property. This settles a conjecture by Monical, Tokcan and Yong. Our ideas are motivated by the theory of multidegrees. We introduce a notion of standardization of…

We prove that supports of non-symmetric Macdonald polynomials are $M$-convex. As a consequence, we resolve a 2019 conjecture of Monical, Tokcan, and Yong that they have the saturated Newton polytope property. As a corollary we show that…

We give an explicit combinatorial formula for the Schur expansion of Macdonald polynomials indexed by partitions with second part at most two. This gives a uniform formula for both hook and two column partitions. The proof comes as a…

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)…

The main purpose of this paper is to show that the multiplication of a Schubert polynomial of finite type $A$ by a Schur function, which we refer to as Schubert vs. Schur problem, can be understood from the multiplication in the space of…

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,…

When $\lambda$ is a partition, the specialized non-symmetric Macdonald polynomial $E_{\lambda}(x;q;0)$ is symmetric and related to a modified Hall--Littlewood polynomial. We show that whenever all parts of the integer partition $\lambda$ is…

The $k$-matching polytope of a graph is the convex hull of all its matchings of a given size $k$ when they are considered as indicator vectors. In this paper, we prove that the $k$-matching polytope of a bipartite graph is normal, that is,…

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…

A classical result of MacMahon states that inversion number and major index have the same distribution over permutations of a given multiset. In this work we prove a strengthening of this theorem originally conjectured by Haglund. Our…

The dual stable Grothendieck polynomials are a deformation of the Schur functions, originating in the study of the K-theory of the Grassmannian. We generalize these polynomials by introducing a countable family of additional parameters, and…

The Schur polynomials $s_{\lambda}$ are essential in understanding the representation theory of the general linear group. They also describe the cohomology ring of the Grassmannians. For $\rho = (n, n-1, \dots, 1)$ a staircase shape and…

We make a broad conjecture about the $k$-Schur positivity of Catalan functions, symmetric functions which generalize the (parabolic) Hall-Littlewood polynomials. We resolve the conjecture with positive combinatorial formulas in cases which…
