In this work, we establish a general relationship between the enumeration of weighted directed paths and skew Schur functions, extending work by Bousquet-M\'elou, who expressed generating functions of discrete excursions in terms of…

In our joint paper with W. Fulton (math.AG/9804041) we prove a formula for the cohomology class of a quiver variety. This formula is general enough to give new expressions for all known types of Schubert polynomials. In the present paper we…

This paper studies a class of Koebe-type harmonic quasiconformal functions. It is motivated by the shear construction of Clunie and Sheil-Small [Ann. Acad. Sci. Fenn. Ser. A I Math. 9: 3--25, 1984] and the harmonic quasiconformal Koebe…

We characterize the semiclosed projections and apply them to compute the Schur complement of a selfadjoint operator with respect to a closed subspace. These projections occur naturally when dealing with weak complementability.

It is a classical fundamental result that Schur-positive specializations of the ring of symmetric functions are characterized via totally positive functions whose parametrization describes the Edrei-Thoma theorem. In this paper we study…

We study the commutation relations and normal ordering between families of operators on symmetric functions. These operators can be naturally defined by the operations of multiplication, Kronecker product, and their adjoints. As…

This article is devoted to the sharp improvement of the classical Bohr inequality for bounded analytic functions defined on the unit disk. We also prove two other sharp versions of the Bohr inequality by replacing the constant term by the…

An identity is derived expressing Schur functions as sums over products of pairs of Schur $Q$-functions, generalizing previously known special cases. This is shown to follow from their representations as vacuum expectation values (VEV's) of…

In this paper we consider asymptotic expansions for a class of sequences of symmetric functions of many variables. Applications to classical and free probability theory are discussed.

A set of functions is introduced which generalizes the famous Schur polynomials and their connection to Grasmannian manifolds. These functions are shown to provide a new method of constructing solutions to the KP hierarchy of nonlinear…

We extend the definition of weak symmetric continuity to be applicable for functions defined on any nonempty subset of $\R$. Then we investigate basic properties of weakly symmetrically continuous functions and compare them with those of…

We determine the most general form of a smooth function on Young diagrams, that is, a polynomial in the interlacing or multirectangular coordinates whose value depends only on the shape of the diagram. We prove that the algebra of such…

We give the definition of uniform symmetric continuity for functions defined on a nonempty subset of the real line. Then we investigate the properties of uniformly symmetrically continuous functions and compare them with those of…

We present a set of N-dimensional functions, based on generalized SU(N)-symmetric coherent states, that represent finite-dimensional Wigner functions, Q-functions, and P-functions. We then show the fundamental properties of these functions…

We prove that graded $k$-Schur functions are $G$-equivariant Euler characteristics of vector bundles on the flag variety, settling a conjecture of Chen-Haiman. We expose a new miraculous shift invariance property of the graded $k$-Schur…

We introduce and study a family of inhomogeneous symmetric functions which we call the Frobenius-Schur functions. These functions are indexed by partitions and differ from the conventional Schur functions in lower terms only. Our interest…

In this paper we obtain several new complete characterizations of pseudolinear functions. Two of the results are of first-order and one is derivative free. All results are derived in terms of the Clarke-Rockafellar subdifferential.…

We classify and construct all multiplicity-free plethystic products of Schur functions. We also compute many new (infinite) families of plethysm coefficients, with particular emphasis on those near maximal in the dominance ordering and…

Let $k$ be a commutative $\mathbb{Q}$-algebra. We study families of functors between categories of finitely generated $R$-modules which are defined for all commutative $k$-algebras $R$ simultaneously and are compatible with base changes.…

We construct a generalization of the theory of symmetric functions involving functions of commuting and anticommuting (Grassmannian) variables. These new functions, called symmetric functions in superspace, are invariant under the diagonal…
