Applications of Minor-Summation Formula II. Pfaffians and Schur Polynomials
نویسندگان
چکیده
The purpose of this paper is, to establish, by extensive use of the minor summation formula of pfaffians exploited in (Ishikawa, Okada, and Wakayama, J. Algebra 183, 193 216) certain new generating functions involving Schur polynomials which have a product representation. This generating function gives an extension of the Littlewood formula. During the course of the proof we develop some techniques for computing sub-Pfaffians of a given skew-symmetric matrix. After the proof we present an open problem which generalizes our formula. 1999 Academic Press

Applications of minor summation formula III, Plücker relations, lattice paths and Pfaffian identities
The initial purpose of the present paper is to provide a combinatorial proof of the minor summation formula of Pfaffians in [8] based on the lattice path method. The second aim is to study applications of the minor summation formula for obtaining several identities. Especially, a simple proof of Kawanaka’s formula concerning a q-series identity involving Schur functions [15] and of the identity...
متن کاملMinor Summation Formula and A Proof of Stanley’s Open Problem
In the open problem session of the FPSAC’03, R.P. Stanley gave an open problem about a certain sum of the Schur functions (See [22]). The purpose of this paper is to give a proof of this open problem. The proof consists of three steps. At the first step we express the sum by a Pfaffian as an application of our minor summation formula ([8]). In the second step we prove a Pfaffian analogue of Cau...

متن کاملSummation formulas for Schur functions involving hyperdeterminants
We give general integral formulas involving for hyperdeterminants or hyperpfaffians. In the applications, we obtain several summation formulas for the products of Schur functions, which are generalizations of Cauchy’s determinant. Further, we study Toeplitz hyperdeterminants by using the theory of Jack polynomials and give a hyperdeterminant version of a strong Szegö limit theorem. MSC-class: p...
متن کاملSchur Q-polynomials, multiple hypergeometric series and enumeration of marked shifted tableaux
Abstract. We study Schur Q-polynomials evaluated on a geometric progression, or equivalently q-enumeration of marked shifted tableaux, seeking explicit formulas that remain regular at q = 1. We obtain several such expressions as multiple basic hypergeometric series, and as determinants and pfaffians of q-ultraspherical polynomials. As special cases, we obtain simple closed formulas for staircas...
