In this paper, we investigate the Schur positivity of modified Hall--Littlewood polynomials indexed by two-column partitions under the action of the $\nabla$ operator. Specifically, we resolve two conjectures posed by Bergeron, Garsia,…

I settle a conjecture of Andrews related to the Alladi-Schur polynomials. In addition, I give further relations and implications to two families of polynomials related to the Alladi-Schur polynomials.

In the paper we show the equality between the Lempert function and the Green function with two poles with equal weights in the bidisc thus giving the positive answer to a conjecture of Coman in the simplest unknown case. Actually, a…

We give combinatorial proofs that certain families of differences of products of Schur functions are monomial-positive. We show in addition that such monomial-positivity is to be expected of a large class of generating functions with…

Let $A(p,n,k)$ be the number of $p$-tuples of commuting permutations of $n$ elements whose permutation action results in exactly $k$ orbits or connected components. We formulate the conjecture that, for every fixed $p$ and $n$, the…

In this paper we prove a Liouville theorem for the Chern--Simons--Schr{\"o}dinger equation. This result is consistent with the soliton resolution conjecture for initial data that does not lie in a weighted space. See [KKO22] for the soliton…

We prove that the Bourgain slicing conjecture and the Kannan-Lov\'asz-Simonovits (KLS) isoperimetric conjecture in $\mathbb{R}^n$ hold true up to a factor of $\sqrt{\log n}$. A new ingredient used in the proof is an improved log-concave…

We prove some "power" generalizations of Marcus-Lopes-style (including McLeod and Bullen) concavity inequalities for elementary symmetric polynomials, and convexity inequalities (of McLeod and Baston) for complete homogeneous symmetric…

In this paper we give an elementary proof of the Zariski-Lipman conjecture for log canonical spaces.

We prove recent conjectures of Chern concerning nonnegativity of a certain q-series related to parity bias in integer partitions.

We prove the "strong conjecture" expressed by Gazeau et al. in arXiv:1203.3936v1 [math-ph] about the coefficients of the Taylor expansion of the exponential of a polynomial. This implies the "weak conjecture" as a special case. The proof…

We prove a recent conjecture of Lassalle about positivity and integrality of coefficients in some polynomial expansions. We also give a combinatorial interpretation of those numbers. Finally, we show that this question is closely related to…

Let $\mathbb{N}$ denote the set of non-negative integers. Haglund, Wilson, and the second author have conjectured that the coefficient of any Schur function $s_\lambda[X]$ in $\Delta_{e_k} e_n[X]$ is a polynomial in $\mathbb{N}[q,t]$. We…

In this paper, we prove Gromov's flat corner domination conjecture in all dimensions. As a consequence, we answer positively the Stoker conjecture for convex Euclidean polyhedra in all dimensions. By applying the same techniques, we also…

In this paper, we generalize a conjecture due to Darmon and Logan in an adelic setting. We study the relation between our construction and Kudla's works on cycles on orthogonal Shimura varieties. This relation allows us to conjecture a…

Elementary proofs are given for sums of Schur functions over partitions into at most n parts each less than or equal to m for which i) all parts are even, ii) all parts of the conjugate partition are even. Also, an elementary proof of a…

The machinery of noncommutative Schur functions provides a general tool for obtaining Schur expansions for combinatorially defined symmetric functions. We extend this approach to a wider class of symmetric functions, explore its strengths…

The branching of (k-1)-Schur functions into k-Schur functions was given by Lapointe, Lam, Morse and Shimozono as chains in a poset on k-shapes. The k-Schur functions are the parameterless case of a more general family of symmetric functions…

In the literature there are several determinant formulas for Schur functions: the Jacobi-Trudi formula, the dual Jacobi-Trudi formula, the Giambelli formula, the Lascoux-Pragacz formula, and the Hamel-Goulden formula, where the…

The theory of Schur functors provides a powerful and elegant approach to the representation theory of GL_n - at least to the so-called polynomial representations - especially to questions about how the theory varies with n. We develop…
