UeberRanunculus tuberosus Schur

The Chromosomes of Lathyrus Tuberosus.

Spermidine Uptake by Mitochondria of Helianthus tuberosus.

In the present work evidence is provided that spermidine, a polyamine largely present in plant tissues, may be transported, at physiological concentrations, into the matrix space of mitochondria isolated from tubers of Helianthus tuberosus L. cv OB1 (Jerusalem artichoke). It is concluded that the movement of spermidine strictly depends on membrane potential, since it is drastically blocked by v...

Multiplicity 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...

Schur Algebras and Schur - Weyl Duality

In this paper we study Schur-Weyl duality between the symplectic group and Brauer’s centralizer algebra over an arbitrary infinite field K. We show that the natural homomorphism from the Brauer’s centralizer algebra Bn(−2m) to the endomorphism algebra of tensor space (K) as a module over the symplectic similitude group GSp2m(K) (or equivalently, as a module over the symplectic group Sp2m(K)) is...
