We develop the theory of copartitions, which are a generalization of partitions with connections to many classical topics in partition theory, including Rogers-Ramanujan partitions, theta functions, mock theta functions, partitions with…
We introduce the concepts of an amazing hypercube decomposition and a double shortcut for it, and use these new ideas to formulate a conjecture implying the Combinatorial Invariance Conjecture of the Kazhdan--Lusztig polynomials for the…
In this exposition we give a simple and complete treatment of A. Knutson and T. Tao's recent proof (http://front.math.ucdavis.edu/math.RT/9807160) of the saturation conjecture, which asserts that the Littlewood-Richardson semigroup is…
The coefficients occurring in summation formulae of the Lubbock type are shown to be generalised Bernoulli polynomials which turn up in subdivision questions such as quantum field theory around a conical singularity and on spherical lunes.…
Kostka functions $K^{\pm}_{\lambda, \mu}(t)$ associated to complex reflection groups are a generalization of Kostka polynomials, which are indexed by a pair $\lambda, \mu$ of $r$-partitions and a sign $+, -$. It is expected that there…
A weight function which $q$-generalizes the ground state wave function of the multi-component Calogero-Sutherland quantum many body system is introduced. Conjectures, and some proofs in special cases, are given for a constant term identity…
We discuss a practical algorithm to compute parabolic Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials. As an application we compute Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials which are needed to evaluate a character formula for reductive groups due to Lusztig. Some…
We study random composite structures considered up to symmetry that are sampled according to weights on the inner and outer structures. This model may be viewed as an unlabelled version of Gibbs partitions and encompasses multisets of…
We give a combinatorial proof of the skew Kostka analogue of the K-saturation theorem. More precisely, for any positive integer k, we give an explicit injection from the set of skew semistandard Young tableaux with skew shape…
We show that some of the main structural constants for symmetric functions (Littlewood-Richardson coefficients, Kronecker coefficients, plethysm coefficients, and the Kostka--Foulkes polynomials) share symmetries related to the operations…
The saturation property for Littlewood--Richardson coefficients was established by Knutson and Tao in 1999. In 2004, Kirillov conjectured that the saturation property extends to Schubert coefficients. We disprove this conjecture in a strong…
We point out that the remarkable Knutson and Tao Saturation Theorem and polynomial time algorithms for LP have together an important and immediate consequence in Geometric Complexity Theory. The problem of deciding positivity of…
We give several equivalent combinatorial descriptions of the space of states for the box-ball systems, and connect certain partition functions for these models with the q-weight multiplicities of the tensor product of the fundamental…
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…
The paper deals with different properties of polynomials in random elements: bounds for characteristics functionals of polynomials, stochastic generalization of the Vinogradov mean value theorem, characterization problem, bounds for…
We propose that geometric quantization of symplectic manifolds is the arrow part of a functor, whose object part is deformation quantization of Poisson manifolds. The `quantization commutes with reduction' conjecture of Guillemin and…
Following the methods used by Derksen-Weyman in \cite{DW11} and Chindris in \cite{Chi08}, we use quiver theory to represent the generalized Littlewood-Richardson coefficients for the branching rule for the diagonal embedding of $\gl(n)$ as…
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…
The type $A$ Kostant partition function is an important combinatorial object with various applications: it counts integer flows on the complete directed graph, computes Hilbert series of spaces of diagonal harmonics, and can be used to…
We prove that a conjecture of Fomin, Fulton, Li, and Poon, associated to ordered pairs of partitions, holds for many infinite families of such pairs. We also show that the bounded height case can be reduced to checking that the conjecture…
