The classical characteristic map associates symmetric functions to characters of the symmetric groups. There are two natural analogues of this map involving the Brauer algebra. The first of them relies on the action of the orthogonal or…

The characteristic map for the symmetric group is an isomorphism relating the representation theory of the symmetric group to symmetric functions. An analogous isomorphism is constructed for the symmetric space of symplectic forms over a…

We investigate the relationship between symmetric functions and the representation theory of operads, relative operads, and props. We extend the classical character map for symmetric sequences to relative bisymmetric sequences and symmetric…

We establish a correspondence between Young diagrams and differential operators of infinitely many variables. These operators form a commutative associative algebra isomorphic to the algebra of the conjugated classes of finite permutations…

We consider an operator of Bernstein for symmetric functions, and give an explicit formula for its action on an arbitrary Schur function. This formula is given in a remarkably simple form when written in terms of some notation based on the…

In 1911 Schur computed the spin character values of the symmetric group using two important ingredients: the first one later became famously known as the Schur Q-functions and the second one was certain creative construction of the…

The Verschiebung operators $\varphi_t $ are a family of endomorphisms on the ring of symmetric functions, one for each integer $t\geq2$. Their action on the Schur basis has its origins in work of Littlewood and Richardson, and is intimately…

We relate character theory of the symmetric groups $S_{2n}$ and $S_{2n+1}$ with that of the hyperoctahedral group $B_n = ({\mathbb Z}/2)^n \rtimes S_n$, as part of the expectation that the character theory of reductive groups with diagram…

We introduce a basis of the symmetric functions that evaluates to the (irreducible) characters of the symmetric group, just as the Schur functions evaluate to the irreducible characters of $GL_n$ modules. Our main result gives three…

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.

There exist a number of well known multiplicative generating functions for series of Schur functions. Amongst these are some related to the dual Cauchy identity whose expansion coefficients are rather simple, and in some cases periodic in…

We describe generating functions for several important families of classical symmetric functions and shifted Schur functions. The approach is originated from vertex operator realization of symmetric functions and offers a unified method to…

Stanley symmetric functions are the stable limits of Schubert polynomials. In this paper, we show that, conversely, Schubert polynomials are Demazure truncations of Stanley symmetric functions. This parallels the relationship between Schur…

We study the algebraic properties of plethystic vertex operators, introduced in J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 43 405202 (2010), underlying the structure of symmetric functions associated with certain generalized universal character rings of…

Specializations of Schur functions are exploited to define and evaluate the Schur functions s_\lambda[\alpha X] and plethysms s_\lambda[\alpha s_\nu(X))] for any \alpha - integer, real or complex. Plethysms are then used to define pairs of…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a complex semisimple Lie algebra and let $\mathbf{U}_q(\mathfrak{g})$ denote the associated Drinfel'd Jimbo quantized enveloping algebra. In this paper we study spherical functions of $\mathbf{U}_q(\mathfrak{g})$…

The irreducible characters of the symmetric group are a symmetric polynomial in the eigenvalues of a permutation matrix. They can therefore be realized as a symmetric function that can be evaluated at a set of variables and form a basis of…

A presentation by generators and relations of the $n$th symmetric power $B$ of a commutative algebra $A$ over a field of characteristic zero or greater than $n$ is given. This is applied to get information on a minimal homogeneous…

It has been understood that correlation functions of multi-trace operators in ${\cal N}=4$ SYM can be neatly computed using the group algebra of symmetric groups or walled Brauer algebras. On the other hand such algebras have been known to…

We introduce new families of cylindric symmetric functions as subcoalgebras in the ring of symmetric functions $\Lambda$ (viewed as a Hopf algebra) which have non-negative structure constants. Combinatorially these cylindric symmetric…
