A tableaux formula for $q$-rook numbers

Combinatorics 2025-07-02 v1 Representation Theory

Abstract

We provide a formula for the Garsia-Remmel qq-rook numbers as a sum over standard Young tableaux. We connect our formula with the coefficients in qq-Whittaker expansion of unicellular LLT functions.
