چکیده
Using cocommutativity of the Hopf algebra of symmetric functions, certain skew Schur functions are proved to be equal. Some of these skew Schur function identities are new.

A Hopf algebraic approach to the theory of group branch- ings
We describe a Hopf algebraic approach to the Grothendieck ring of representations of subgroups Hπ of the general linear group GL(n) which stabilize a tensor of Young symmetry {π}. It turns out that the representation ring of the subgroup can be described as a Hopf algebra twist, with a 2-cocycle derived from the Cauchy kernel 2-cocycle using plethysms. Due to Schur-Weyl duality we also need to ...
متن کاملA ug 2 00 9 SKEW LITTLEWOOD - RICHARDSON RULES FROM HOPF ALGEBRAS
Assaf and McNamara [1] recently used combinatorics to give an elegant and surprising formula for the product of a skew Schur function by a complete homogeneous symmetric function. Their paper included an appendix by one of us (Lam) with a simple algebraic proof of their formula, and also a conjectural skew version of the Littlewood-Richardson rule. We show how these formulas and much more are s...
متن کاملFrobenius-Schur Indicator for Categories with Duality
We introduce the Frobenius–Schur indicator for categories with duality to give a category-theoretical understanding of various generalizations of the Frobenius–Schur theorem including that for semisimple quasi-Hopf algebras, weak Hopf C∗-algebras and association schemes. Our framework also clarifies a mechanism of how the “twisted” theory arises from the ordinary case. As a demonstration, we es...
متن کاملResearch Statement: Specializations of Macdonald polynomials
Symmetric functions are vital to the study of combinatorics because they provide valuable information about partitions and permutations, topics which constitute the core of the subject. The significance of symmetric function theory is manifest by its connections to other branches of mathematics, including group theory, representation theory, Lie algebras, and algebraic geometry. One important b...
متن کاملSchur Function Identities and Hook Length Posets
In this paper we find new classes of posets which generalize the d-complete posets. In fact the d-complete posets are classified into 15 irreducible classes in the paper “Dynkin diagram classification of λ-minuscule Bruhat lattices and of d-complete posets” (J. Algebraic Combin. 9 (1999), 61 – 94) by R. A. Proctor. Here we present six new classes of posets of hook-length property which generali...
