We give a historical survey of the theory P-partitions, starting with MacMahon's work, describing Richard Stanley's contributions and his related work, and continuing with more recent developments.
I will share with the reader what I have learned from Richard Stanley and the ways in which he has contributed to research in combinatorics conducted by me and my collaborators.
In his paper, "On a Partition Function of Richard Stanley," George Andrews proves a certain partition identity analytically and asks for a combinatorial proof. This paper provides the requested combinatorial proof.
In this paper we go on to discuss about Stanley's theorem in Integer partitions. We give two different versions for the proof of the generalization of Stanley's theorem illustrating different techniques that may be applied to profitably…
This expository paper features a few highlights of Richard Stanley's extensive work in Ehrhart theory, the study of integer-point enumeration in rational polyhedra. We include results from the recent literature building on Stanley's work,…
We extend recent results by G. E. Andrews and G. Simay on the $m$th largest and $m$th smallest parts of a partition to the more general context of skew plane partitions. In order to do this, we introduce new objects called skew plane…
Richard Stanley played a crucial role, through his work and his students, in the development of the relatively new area known as combinatorial representation theory. In the early stages, he has the merit to have pointed out to…
The generating function of reverse plane partitions of a fixed shape factors into a product featuring the hook-lengths of this shape. This result, which was first obtained by Stanley, can be explained bijectively using the Hillman-Grassl…
Using elementary methods, we prove new formulas for $\operatorname{pp}(n)$, the number of plane partitions of $n$, $\operatorname{pp}_r(n)$, the number of plane partitions of $n$ with at most $r$ rows, $\operatorname{pp}^s(n)$, the number…
We give a geometric interpretation of the Stanley--Reisner correspondence, extend it to schemes, and interpret it in terms of the field of one element.
Koivisto studied the partitioning of sets of bounded cardinality. We improve his time analysis somewhat, for the special case of triangle partitions, and obtain a slight improvement.
We give a direct deduction and proof of two identities in the theory of plane partitions. The first one is known to enumerate the traces of plane partitions. The second one comes without any combinatorial interpretation.
These are (mostly) expository notes for lectures on affine Stanley symmetric functions given at the Fields Institute in 2010. We focus on the algebraic and combinatorial parts of the theory. The notes contain a number of exercises and open…
We explore partitions that lie in the intersection of several sets of classical interest: partitions with parts indivisible by $m$, appearing fewer than $m$ times, or differing by less than $m$. We find results on their behavior and…
It is shown that the descending plane partitions of Andrews can be geometrically realized as cyclically symmetric rhombus tilings of a certain hexagon where an equilateral triangle of side length 2 has been removed from its centre. Thus,…
Mass partition problems describe the partitions we can induce on a family of measures or finite sets of points in Euclidean spaces by dividing the ambient space into pieces. In this survey we describe recent progress in the area in addition…
This is a survey paper based on my talk at the Workshop on Orbifolds and String Theory, the goal of which was to explain the role of groupoids and their classifying spaces as a foundation for the theory of orbifolds.
A survey of tilings in the plane for a general audience.
We study the deformation theory of projective Stanley-Reisner schemes associated to combinatorial manifolds. We achieve detailed descriptions of first order deformations and obstruction spaces. Versal base spaces are given for certain…
A method of Proctor [European J. Combin. 5 (1984), no. 4, 331-350] realizes the set of arbitrary plane partitions in a box and the set of symmetric plane partitions as bases of linear representations of Lie groups. We extend this method by…
