a trend towards small families, abortion, and homosexuality. With the outbreak of war, the Lebensborn's function was extended to the "germanization" of racially sound children from the occupied territories who were the offspring of liaisons between German military personnel and women from those territories or whose parents had been killed or imprisoned. Such children were effectively seized and...

sometimes referred with very natural pride. It was in 1878 that he was invited to come to University College, Bristol, as Lecturer in Anatomy, and in the same year he was appointed Assistant Surgeon to the Bristol Royal Infirmary. A year later he became full surgeon, and in 1880 he was appointed Dean of the Faculty of Medicine at University College. Thus, to use his own expression, he had not b...

Littlewood–Richardson polynomials

We introduce a family of rings of symmetric functions depending on an infinite sequence of parameters. A distinguished basis of such a ring is comprised by analogues of the Schur functions. The corresponding structure coefficients are polynomials in the parameters which we call the Littlewood–Richardson polynomials. We give a combinatorial rule for their calculation by modifying an earlier resu...

Small Littlewood-Richardson coefficients

We develop structural insights into the Littlewood-Richardson graph, whose number of vertices equals the Littlewood-Richardson coefficient cνλ,μ for given partitions λ, μ and ν. This graph was first introduced in [BI12], where its connectedness was proved. Our insights are useful for the design of algorithms for computing the Littlewood-Richardson coefficient: We design an algorithm for the exa...
