Transition matrices and Pieri-type rules for polysymmetric functions
Abstract
Asvin G and Andrew O'Desky recently introduced the graded algebra P of polysymmetric functions as a generalization of the algebra of symmetric functions. This article develops combinatorial formulas for some multiplication rules and transition matrix entries for P that are analogous to well-known classical formulas for . In more detail, we consider pure tensor bases , , and for P that arise as tensor products of the classical Schur basis, power-sum basis, and monomial basis for . We find expansions in these bases of the non-pure bases , , , and studied by Asvin G and O'Desky. The answers involve tableau-like structures generalizing semistandard tableaux, rim-hook tableaux, and the brick tabloids of E\u{g}ecio\u{g}lu and Remmel. These objects arise by iteration of new Pieri-type rules that give expansions of products such as , , etc.
