We study a class of monic-palindromic polynomials that we call staircase palindromic polynomials. Specifically, suppose $S(x, n, h)$ is a polynomial of degree n with the special form: $S(x; n; h) = x^n + 2x^{n-1} + 3x^{n-2} + \dots + (h -…
We give a simple formula for some determinants, and an analogous formula for pfaffians, both of which are polynomial identities. The second involve some expressions that interpolate between determinants and pfaffians. We give several…
We study the stochastic six-vertex model in half-space with generic integrable boundary weights, and define two families of multivariate rational symmetric functions. Using commutation relations between double-row operators, we prove a skew…
In this paper, we introduce and analyze a new switch operator for the six-vertex model. This operator, derived from the Yang-Baxter equation, allows us to express the partition function with arbitrary boundaries in terms of a base case with…
A multiplication on persistence diagrams is introduced by means of Schubert calculus. The key observation behind this multiplication comes from the fact that the representation space of persistence modules has the structure of the Schubert…
For stacked simplicial complexes, (special subclasses of such are: trees, triangulations of polygons, stacked polytopes), we give an explicit bijection between partitions of facets (for trees: edges), and partitions of vertices into…
We introduce a new family $\mathcal{A}_{n,k}$ of Schur positive symmetric functions, which are defined as sums over totally symmetric plane partitions. In the first part, we show that, for $k=1$, this family is equal to a multivariate…
Tree-like tableaux are objects in bijection with alternative or permutation tableaux. They have been the subject of a fruitful combinatorial study for the past few years. In the present work, we define and study a new subclass of tree-like…
This brief note concerns the invertibility of certain alternant matrices. In particular those that consisting of polynomials and products of polynomials and logarithms are shown to be invertible under appropriate conditions on the degrees…
In this paper, we introduce Gram matrices for the signed partition algebras, the algebra of $\mathbb{Z}_2$-relations and the partition algebras. We prove that the Gram matrix is similar to a matrix which is a direct sum of block…
The transfer matrix of the 6-vertex model of two-dimensional statistical physics commutes with many (more complicated) transfer matrices, but these latter, generally, do not commute between each other. The studying of their action in the…
Vector bundles and double vector bundles, or $2$-fold vector bundles, arise naturally for instance as base spaces for algebraic structures such as Lie algebroids, Courant algebroids and double Lie algebroids. It is known that all these…
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…
A periodic lattice in Euclidean space is the infinite set of all integer linear combinations of basis vectors. Any lattice can be generated by infinitely many different bases. This ambiguity was only partially resolved, but standard…
Motivated by the enumeration of a class of plane partitions studied by Proctor and by considerations about symmetry classes of plane partitions, we consider the problem of enumerating lozenge tilings of a hexagon with ``maximal staircases''…
Starting from simple and necessary axioms on a (derivator enhanced) four-functor-formalism, we construct derivator six-functor-formalisms using compactifications. This works, for instance, for the stable homotopy categories of…
Schubert polynomials were introduced in the context of the geometry of flag varieties. This paper investigates some of the connections not yet understood between several combinatorial structures for the construction of Schubert polynomials;…
We consider the partition function Z(N;x_1,...,x_N,y_1,...,y_N) of the square ice model with domain wall boundary. We give a simple proof of the symmetry of Z with respect to all its variables when the global parameter a of the model is set…
Matrix Schubert varieties are certain varieties in the affine space of square matrices which are determined by specifying rank conditions on submatrices. We study these varieties for generic matrices, symmetric matrices, and upper…
We consider the number of the $6$-regular partitions of $n$, $b_6(n)$, and give infinite families of congruences modulo $3$ (in arithmetic progression) for $b_6(n)$. We also consider the number of the partitions of $n$ into distinct parts…
