We introduce a generalization of the classical Hall-Littlewood and Kostka-Foulkes polynomials to all symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebras. We prove that these Kostka-Foulkes polynomials coincide with the natural generalization of Lusztig's…

We provide a type-uniform formula for the degree of the stretched Kostka quasi-polynomial $K_{\lambda,\mu}(N)$ in all classical types, improving a previous result by McAllister in $\mathfrak{sl}_r(\mathbb{C})$. Our proof relies on a…

Kostka-Foulkes polynomials are Lusztig's $q$-analogues of weight multiplicities for irreducible representations of semisimple Lie algebras. It has long been known that these polynomials have non-negative coefficients. A statistic on…

Let $G$ be a semisimple algebraic group and $B$ a Borel subgroup. We consider generalisations of Lusztig's q-analogues of weight multiplicity, where the set of positive roots is replaced with the multiset of weights of a $B$-submodule of an…

Combinatorial objects called rigged configurations give rise to q-analogues of certain Littlewood-Richardson coefficients. The Kostka-Foulkes polynomials and two-column Macdonald-Kostka polynomials occur as special cases. Conjecturally…

We give an elementary proof of a well-known result on Kostka numbers, following a question from Mark Wildon on MathOverflow. Namely, we show that given partitions $\lambda,\mu,\nu$ of $n$ with $\mu\trianglerighteq\nu$, we have…

The Kostka-Foulkes polynomials $K$ related to a root system $\phi $ can be defined as alternated sums running over the Weyl group associated to $\phi .$ By restricting these sums over the elements of the symmetric group when $% \phi $ is of…

If $[\lambda(j)]$ is a multipartition of the positive integer $n$ (a sequence of partitions with total size $n$), and $\mu$ is a partition of $n$, we study the number $K_{[\lambda(j)]\mu}$ of sequences of semistandard Young tableaux of…

In this paper we complete the proof of the X=K conjecture, that for every family of nonexceptional affine algebras, the graded multiplicities of tensor products of symmetric power Kirillov-Reshetikhin modules known as one-dimensional sums,…

Lusztig $q$-weight multiplicities extend the Kostka-Foulkes polynomials to a broader range of Lie types. In this work, we investigate these multiplicities through the framework of Kirillov-Reshetikhin crystals. Specifically, for type $C$…

We investigate the relationship between Kostka-Foulkes polynomials and certain symmetric functions that arise from Garsia and Haglund's study of the q,t-Catalan series.

Generalized Hall-Littlewood polynomials (Macdonald spherical functions) and generalized Kostka-Foulkes polynomials ($q$-weight multiplicities) arise in many places in combinatorics, representation theory, geometry, and mathematical physics.…

Here we propose a way to construct generalized Kostka polynomials. Namely, we construct an equivariant filtration on tensor products of irreducible representations. Further, we discuss properties of the filtration and the adjoint graded…

An algebraic iterative formula for the spin Kostka-Foulkes polynomial $K^-_{\xi\mu}(t)$ is given using vertex operator realizations of Hall-Littlewood symmetric functions and Schur's Q-functions. Based on the operational formula, more…

We report about results revolving around Kostka-Foulkes and parabolic Kostka polynomials and their connections with Representation Theory and Combinatorics. It appears that the set of all parabolic Kostka polynomials forms a semigroup,…

We present three different upper bounds for Kronecker coefficients $g(\lambda,\mu,\nu)$ in terms of Kostka numbers, contingency tables and Littlewood--Richardson coefficients. We then give various examples, asymptotic applications, and…

Using the theory of Kostka polynomials, we prove an A_{n-1} version of Bailey's lemma at integral level. Exploiting a new, conjectural expansion for Kostka numbers, this is then generalized to fractional levels, leading to a new expression…

An iterative formula for the Kostka-Foulkes polynomials is given using the vertex operator realization of the Hall-Littlewood polynomials. The operational formula can handle large Kostka-Foulkes polynomials, and a stability property for the…

We propose an $r$-variable version of Kostka-Shoji polynomials $K^-_{\lambda\mu}$ for $r$-multipartitions $\lambda,\mu$. Our version has positive integral coefficients and encodes the graded multiplicities in the space of global sections of…
