Staircase Skew Schur Functions Are Schur P -positive
We prove Stanley’s conjecture that, if δn is the staircase shape, then the skew Schur functions sδn/μ are non-negative sums of Schur P -functions. We prove that the coefficients in this sum count certain fillings of shifted shapes. In particular, for the skew Schur function sδn/δn−2 , we discuss connections with Eulerian numbers and alternating permutations.
متن کاملEquality of Schur and Skew Schur Functions
We determine the precise conditions under which any skew Schur function is equal to a Schur function over both infinitely and finitely many variables.
متن کاملMultiplicity Free Schur, Skew Schur, and Quasisymmetric Schur Functions
In this paper we classify all Schur functions and skew Schur functions that are multiplicity free when expanded in the basis of fundamental quasisymmetric functions, termed F -multiplicity free. Combinatorially, this is equivalent to classifying all skew shapes whose standard Young tableaux have distinct descent sets. We then generalize our setting, and classify all F -multiplicity free quasisy...
متن کاملSkew Quasisymmetric Schur Functions and Noncommutative Schur Functions
Recently a new basis for the Hopf algebra of quasisymmetric functions QSym, called quasisymmetric Schur functions, has been introduced by Haglund, Luoto, Mason, van Willigenburg. In this paper we extend the definition of quasisymmetric Schur functions to introduce skew quasisymmetric Schur functions. These functions include both classical skew Schur functions and quasisymmetric Schur functions ...
متن کاملSymmetric Skew Quasisymmetric Schur Functions
The classical Littlewood-Richardson rule is a rule for computing coefficients in many areas, and comes in many guises. In this paper we prove two Littlewood-Richardson rules for symmetric skew quasisymmetric Schur functions that are analogous to the famed version of the classical Littlewood-Richardson rule involving Yamanouchi words. Furthermore, both our rules contain this classical Littlewood...
