In this paper we classify when (row-strict) dual immaculate functions and (row-strict) extended Schur functions, as well as their skew generalizations, are symmetric. We also classify when their natural variants, termed advanced functions,…

We investigate a generalization of the classical notion of a Schur functor associated to a ribbon diagram. These functors are defined with respect to an arbitrary algebra, and in the case that the underlying algebra is the…

This work studies skew polycyclic codes over finite chain rings defined by central trinomials. For this class of codes, we investigate Hamming equivalence in the non-commutative (skew) setting. We introduce an equivalence relation on the…

The question of when two skew Young diagrams produce the same skew Schur function has been well-studied. We investigate the same question in the case of stable Grothendieck polynomials, which are the K-theoretic analogues of the Schur…

We define an equivalence relation on graphs with signed edges, such that the associated adjacency matrices of two equivalent graphs are congruent over $\mathbb{Z}$. We show that signed graphs whose eigenvalues are larger than $-2$ are…

We introduce a new equivalence relation on decorated ribbon graphs, and show that its equivalence classes directly correspond to virtual links. We demonstrate how this correspondence can be used to convert any invariant of virtual links…

By using cutting strips and transformations on outside decompositions of a skew diagram, we show that the Giambelli type matrices of a skew Schur function are stably equivalent to each other over symmetric functions. As a consequence, the…

Inspired by the spin-inversion statistics of Schilling et al. and Haglund et al., we relate the symmetry of ribbon functions to a result of van Leeuwen, and also describe the multiplication of a domino function by a Schur function.

In this paper, we apply Kauffman bracket skein algebras to develop a theory of skein adequate links in thickened surfaces. We show that any alternating link diagram on a surface is skein adequate. We apply our theory to establish the first…

We consider ribbon shapes, not necessarily connected, whose rows, with at least two boxes in each, are in monotone length order. These ribbons are uniquely defined by a pair of partitions: the row partition consisting of the row lengths in…

The Stanley-Stembridge conjecture associates a symmetric function to each natural unit interval order $\mathcal P$. In this paper, we define relations \`a la Knuth on the symmetric group for each $\mathcal P$ and conjecture that the…

We compute the Schur indices in the presence of some line operators based on our con- jectural formula introduced in [1]. In particular, we focus on the rank 1 superconformal field theories with the enhanced global symmetry and the free…

We make a systematic study of a new combinatorial construction called a dual equivalence graph. We axiomatize these graphs and prove that their generating functions are symmetric and Schur positive. This provides a universal method for…

Every link diagram can be represented as a signed ribbon graph. However, different link diagrams can be represented by the same ribbon graphs. We determine how checkerboard colourable diagrams of links in real projective space, and virtual…

We establish braided tensor equivalences among module categories over the twisted quantum double of a finite group defined by an extension of a group H by an abelian group, with 3-cocycle inflated from a 3-cocycle on H. We also prove that…

Much of algebra and representation theory can be formulated in the general framework of tensor categories. The aim of this paper is to further develop this theory for braided tensor categories. Several results are established that do not…

Two edge colorings of a graph are {\em edge-Kempe equivalent} if one can be obtained from the other by a series of edge-Kempe switches. This work gives some results for the number of edge-Kempe equivalence classes for cubic graphs. In…

The notion of a welded link was introduced by Fenn, Rim\'anyi, and Rourke as an analogue of welded braids. A welded link is defined as an equivalence class of link diagrams that may contain virtual crossings, where the equivalence is…
