Littlewood-Richardson fillings and their symmetries
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract Considering the classical definition of the Littlewood-Richardson rule and its 2-dimensional representation by means of rectangular tableaux, we exhibit 24 symmetries of this rule when considering dualization, conjugation and their composition. Extending the Littlewood-Richardson rule to sequences of nonnegative real numbers, six of these symmetries may be generalized. Our point is to stress the role of different Littlewood-Richardson fillings, opposite (or increasing) [1, 2, 12] and column, [1, 2, 7] in guiding these symmetries. The main result is a bijection in the set of Littlewood-Richardson rectangular tableaux which transforms LittlewoodRichardson fillings of type [a, b, c] into [b, a, c]. This bijection is based on the projection of Littlewood-Richardson tableaux of order r into Littlewood-Richardson tableaux of order r − 1, for each r ∈ N.

On a Bijection between Littlewood-Richardson Fillings of Conjugate Shape
We present a new bijective proof of the equality between the number of Littlewood-Richardson fillings of a skew-shape i/n of weight v, and those of the conjugate skew-shape A’/$, of conjugate weight v’. The bijection is defined by means of a unique permutation a,,, associated to the skew-shape i-/p. Our arguments use only well-established properties of Schensted insertion, and make no reference...
متن کاملRectangular Symmetries for Coefficients of Symmetric Functions
We show that some of the main structural constants for symmetric functions (Littlewood-Richardson coefficients, Kronecker coefficients, plethysm coefficients, and the Kostka–Foulkes polynomials) share symmetries related to the operations of taking complements with respect to rectangles and adding rectangles.

It is an open problem to prove the Schubert positivity property combinatorially. Recently Haglund, Mason, Remmel, van Willigenburg et al. have studied the skyline fillings (a tableau-combinatorial object giving a combinatorial description to nonsymmetric MacDonald polynomials , proved by Haglund, Haiman and Loehr) specifically for the case of Demazure atoms (atoms) and key polynomials (keys). T...
متن کاملEstimating deep Littlewood-Richardson Coefficients
Littlewood Richardson coefficients are structure constants appearing in the representation theory of the general linear groups (GLn). The main results of this paper are: 1. A strongly polynomial randomized approximation scheme for Littlewood-Richardson coefficients corresponding to indices sufficiently far from the boundary of the Littlewood Richardson cone. 2. A proof of approximate log-concav...

We deene and characterize switching, an operation that takes two tableaux sharing a common border and \moves them through each other" giving another such pair. Several authors, including James and Kerber, Remmel, Haiman, and Shimozono, have deened switching operations; however, each of their operations is somewhat diierent from the rest and each imposes a particular order on the switches that c...
