Quasi-symmetric functions show up in an approach to solve the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) hierarchy. This moreover features a new nonassociative product of quasi-symmetric functions that satisfies simple relations with the ordinary product…

We introduce a new family of symmetric functions, which are $q$-analogues of products of Schur functions defined in terms of ribbon tableaux. These functions can be interpreted in terms of the Fock space representation of the quantum affine…

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…

Symplectic $Q$-functions are a symplectic analogue of Schur $Q$-functions and defined as the $t=-1$ specialization of Hall--Littlewood functions associated with the root system of type $C$. In this paper we prove that symplectic…

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…

We construct a new family $\left( \eta_{\alpha}^{\left( q\right) }\right) _{\alpha\in\operatorname*{Comp}}$ of quasisymmetric functions for each element $q$ of the base ring. We call them the "enriched $q$-monomial quasisymmetric…

We consider a filtration of the symmetric function space given by $\Lambda^{(k)}_t$, the linear span of Hall-Littlewood polynomials indexed by partitions whose first part is not larger than $k$. We introduce symmetric functions called the…

We establish a ring isomorphism between the derived Hall algebra of the Jordan quiver and the ring of double symmetric functions (i.e., the ring of symmetric polynomials in two sets of countably many variables, invariant under the…

We introduce a quasisymmetric refinement of Stanley's chromatic symmetric function. We derive refinements of both Gasharov's Schur-basis expansion of the chromatic symmetric function and Chow's expansion in Gessel's basis of fundamental…

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…

Quasisymmetric functions in superspace were introduced as a natural extension of classical quasisymmetric functions involving both commuting and anticommuting variables. In this paper, we first provide a characterization of the algebra of…

It is an important problem in algebraic combinatorics to deduce the Schur function expansion of a symmetric function whose expansion in terms of the fundamental quasisymmetric function is known. For example, formulas are known for the…

In the context of generating functions for $P$-partitions, we revisit three flavors of quasisymmetric functions: Gessel's quasisymmetric functions, Chow's type B quasisymmetric functions, and Poirier's signed quasisymmetric functions. In…
