We prove the classification of homomorphisms from the algebra of symmetric functions to $\mathbb{R}$ with non-negative values on Macdonald symmetric functions $P_{\lambda}$, that was conjectured by S.V. Kerov in 1992.

We generalize the theory of ordering character triples, developed by Navarro and Sp\"ath, by taking into account the action of Galois automorphisms on characters. This new technique, together with previous results of Ladisch and Turull,…

Quantum analogues of the homogeneous spaces $\GL(n)/\SO(n)$ and $\GL(2n)/\Sp(2n)$ are introduced. The zonal spherical functions on these quantum homogeneous spaces are represented by Macdonald's symmetric polynomials…

Kantor and Trishin described the algebra of polynomial invariants of the adjoint representation of the Lie supergalgebra $gl(m|n)$ and a related algebra $A_s$ of what they called pseudosymmetric polynomials over an algebraically closed…

We consider Jack polynomials $J_\lambda$ and their shifted analogue $J^#_\lambda$. In 1989, Stanley conjectured that $\langle J_\mu J_\nu, J_\lambda \rangle$ is a polynomial with nonnegative coefficients in the parameter $\alpha$. In this…

Several determinants with gamma functions as elements are evaluated. This kind of determinants are encountered in the computation of the probability density of the determinant of random matrices. The s-shifted factorial is defined as a…

In this paper we consider a large class of many-variable polynomials which contains generalisations of the classical Hermite, Laguerre, Jacobi and Bessel polynomials as special cases, and which occur as the polynomial part in the…

We discover a family $A$ of sixteen statistics on fillings of any given Young diagram and prove new combinatorial formulas for modified Macdonald polynomials, that is, $$\tilde{H}_{\lambda}(X;q,t)=\sum_{\sigma\in…

We introduce certain generalisations of the characters of the classical Lie groups, extending the recently defined factorial characters of Foley and King. In this extension, the factorial powers are replaced with an arbitrary sequence of…

We establish new explicit connections between classical (scalar) and matrix Gegenbauer polynomials, which result in new symmetries of the latter and further give access to several properties that have been out of reach before: generating…

We investigate the homogeneous symmetric Macdonald polynomials $P_\lambda(\X;q,t)$ for the specialization $t=q^k$. We show an identity relying the polynomials $P_\lambda(\X;q,q^k)$ and $P_\lambda(\frac{1-q}{1-q^k}\X;q,q^k)$. As a…

Some general connections between martingales and character ratios of finite groups are developed. As an application we sharpen the convergence rate in a central limit theorem for the character ratio of a random representation of the…

We are developing the algebraic construction for form factors of local operators in the sinh-Gordon theory proposed in [B.Feigin, M.Lashkeivch, 2008]. We show that the operators corresponding to the null vectors in this construction are…

We give a new theta-function identity, a special case of which is utilised to prove Kawanaka's Macdonald polynomial conjecture. The theta-function identity further yields a transformation formula for multivariable elliptic hypergeometric…

We prove the Extended Delta Conjecture of Haglund, Remmel, and Wilson, a combinatorial formula for $\Delta _{h_l}\Delta' _{e_k} e_{n}$, where $\Delta' _{e_k}$ and $\Delta_{h_l}$ are Macdonald eigenoperators and $e_n$ is an elementary…

In a recent work, Maciej Do\l{}e\k{}ga and the author have given a formula of the expansion of the Jack polynomial $J^{(\alpha)}_\lambda$ in the power-sum basis as a non-orientability generating series of bipartite maps whose edges are…

Let $k$ be a finite field of characteristic $p$. In the 1960s, Kondo attached non-abelian Gauss sums to irreducible $\mathbb{C}$-representations of $\mathrm{GL}_n(k)$, and computed them in terms of Green parameters. On the other hand, the…

We define some generalizations of the classical descent and inversion statistics on signed permutations that arise from the work of Sack and Ulfarsson [20] and called after width-k descents and width-k inversionsof type A in Davis's work…

We present a fourfold series expansion representing the Askey-Wilson polynomials. To obtain the result, a sequential use is made of several summation and transformation formulas for the basic hypergeometric series, including the Verma's…
