Using random variables as motivation, this paper presents an exposition of the formalisms developed by Rota and Taylor for the classical umbral calculus. A variety of examples are presented, culminating in several descriptions of sequences…

The main classical result of Schubert calculus is that multiplication rules for the basis of Schubert cycles inside the cohomology ring of the Grassmannian $G(n,m)$ are the same as multiplication rules for the basis of Schur polynomials in…

This is a note on my mini-course in the International Workshop on Real and Complex Singularities held at ICMC-USP (Sao Carlos, Brazil) in July 2012. Here we introduce a new branch of the Thom polynomial theory for singularities of…

We connect generalized permutahedra with Schubert calculus. Thereby, we give sufficient vanishing criteria for Schubert intersection numbers of the flag variety. Our argument utilizes recent developments in the study of Schubitopes, which…

This work is a study of polynomial compositions having a fixed number of terms. We outline a recursive method to describe these characterizations, give some particular results and discuss the general case. In the final sections, some…

We aim in this manuscript to describe a specific notion of geometric positivity that manifests in cohomology rings associated to the flag variety $G/B$ and, in some cases, to subvarieties of $G/B$. We offer an exposition on the the…

A linear map between matrix spaces is positive if it maps positive semidefinite matrices to positive semidefinite ones, and is called completely positive if all its ampliations are positive. In this article quantitative bounds on the…

The Peterson variety is a subvariety of the flag manifold $G/B$ equipped with an action of a one-dimensional torus, and a torus invariant paving by affine cells, called Peterson cells. We prove that the equivariant pull-backs of Schubert…

Over $\C$, Henry Laufer classified all taut surface singularities. We adapt and extent his transcendental methods to positive characteristic. With this we show that if a normal surface singularity is taut over $\C$, then the normal surface…

We give several new formulas which are useful for Schubert Calculus associated with the orthogonal groups and related orthogonal degeneracy loci.

In this paper, we consider matrices whose entries are combinatorial sequences which can be expressed in terms of a convolution of elementary and complete homogeneous symmetric functions. We establish the total positivity of these matrices…

A classical result by Kreweras (1965) allows one to compute the number of plane partitions of a given skew shape and bounded parts as certain determinants. We prove that these determinants expand as polynomials with nonnegative…

We propose a theory of combinatorially explicit Schubert polynomials which represent the Schubert classes in the Borel presentation of the cohomology ring of orthogonal flag varieties. We use these polynomials to describe the arithmetic…

We provide sufficient conditions for systems of polynomial equations over general (real or complex) algebras to have a solution. This generalizes known results on quaternions, octonions and matrix algebras. We also generalize the…

Lorentzian polynomials are a fascinating class of real polynomials with many applications. Their definition is specific to the nonnegative orthant. Following recent work, we examine Lorentzian polynomials on proper convex cones. For a…

Let $\Lambda$ be the space of symmetric functions and $V_k$ be the subspace spanned by the modified Schur functions $\{S_\lambda[X/(1-t)]\}_{\lambda_1\leq k}$. We introduce a new family of symmetric polynomials,…

We prove two extension theorems for positive maps from operator systems into matrix algebras

The purpose of this note is to introduce a new family of quasi-symmetric functions called LLT cumulants and discuss its properties. We define LLT cumulants using the algebraic framework for conditional cumulants and we prove that the…

This paper explores further properties of modules related with Schubert polynomials, introduced by Kra\'skiewicz and Pragacz. In this paper we show that any tensor product of Kra\'skiewicz-Pragacz modules admits a filtration by…

In this paper, we determine the partial positivity(resp., negativity) of the curvature of all irreducible Riemannian symmetric spaces. From the classifications of abstract root systems and maximal subsystems, we can give the calculations…
