Using cocommutativity of the Hopf algebra of symmetric functions, certain skew Schur functions are proved to be equal. Some of these skew Schur function identities are new.
We consider the problem of embedding the semi-ring of Schur-positive symmetric polynomials into its analogue for the classical types $B/C/D$. If we preserve highest weights and add the additional Lie-theoretic parity assumption that the…
We give an algebraic (non-analytic) proof of the deformed boson-fermion Fock space construction of Molev's double supersymmetric Schur functions, among other results, from our previous paper. In other words, we make no assumptions on the…
The present paper is a detailed version of math/0003031. We introduce and study a new basis in the algebra of symmetric functions. The elements of this basis are called the Frobenius-Schur functions (FS-functions, for short). Our main…
We define universal factorial Schur $P,Q$-functions and their duals, which specialize to generalized (co)-homology "Schubert basis" for loop spaces of the classical groups. We also investigate some of their properties.
We conjecture affine or Hall-Littlewood analogues of the dual Jacobi-Trudi formulas for orthogonal and symplectic Schur functions indexed by rectangular partitions of maximal height. These conjectures are then used to derive $t$-analogues…
We introduce Schur multiple zeta functions which interpolate both the multiple zeta and multiple zeta-star functions of the Euler-Zagier type combinatorially. We first study their basic properties including a region of absolute convergence…
We discuss several well known results about Schur functions that can be proved using cancellations in alternating summations; notably we shall discuss the Pieri and Murnaghan-Nakayama rules, the Jacobi-Trudi identity and its dual (Von…
We use Young's raising operators to give short and uniform proofs of several well known results about Schur polynomials and symmetric functions, starting from the Jacobi-Trudi identity.
We obtain general identities for the product of two Schur functions in the case where one of the functions is indexed by a rectangular partition, and give their t-analogs using vertex operators. We study subspaces forming a filtration for…
We reconstruct the quantum enveloping superalgebra ${\bf U}(\mathfrak{gl}_{m|n})$ over $\mathbb Q(v)$ via (finite dimensional) quantum Schur superalgebras. In particular, we obtain a new basis containing the standard generators of ${\bf…
The "Capelli problem" for the symmetric pairs $(\mathfrak{gl}\times \mathfrak{gl},\mathfrak{gl})$ $(\mathfrak{gl},\mathfrak{o})$, and $(\mathfrak{gl},\mathfrak{sp})$ is closely related to the theory of Jack polynomials and shifted Jack…
We introduce a new family of Schur functions $s_{\lambda/\mu;a,b}(x/y)$ that depend on two sets of variables and two sequences of parameters. These free fermionic Schur functions have a hidden symmetry between the two sets of parameters…
Analogues of classical combinatorial identities for elementary and homogeneous symmetric functions with coefficients in Yanigian are discussed. As a corollary, similar relations are deduced for shifted Schur functions.
We show that canonical bases in $\dot{U}(\mathfrak{sl}_n)$ and the Schur algebra are compatible; in fact we extend this result to $p$-canonical bases. This follows immediately from a fullness result from a functor categorifying this map. In…
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 introduce and study a generalization of Schur's $P$-/$Q$-functions associated to a polynomial sequence, which can be viewed as ``Macdonald's ninth variation'' for $P$-/$Q$-functions. This variation includes as special cases Schur's…
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 prove Capelli type identities which involve the whole universal enveloping algebra $U(gl(n))$ and matrix elements of irreducible representations of the symmetric group. These identities generalize higher Capelli identities for the center…
The Schur functions in superspace $s_\Lambda$ and $\bar s_\Lambda$ are the limits $q=t=0$ and $q=t=\infty$ respectively of the Macdonald polynomials in superspace. We prove Pieri rules for the bases $s_\Lambda$ and $\bar s_{\Lambda}$ (which…
