General Program

The main purpose of this paper is to show that the multiplication of a Schubert polynomial of finite type $A$ by a Schur function, which we refer to as Schubert vs. Schur problem, can be understood combinatorially from the multiplication in the space of dual $k$-Schur functions. Using earlier work by the second author, we encode both problems by means of quasisymmetric functions. On the Schubert vs. Schur side, we study the poset given by the Bergeron-Sottile's $r$-Bruhat order, along with certain operators associated to this order. Then, we connect this poset with a graph on dual $k$-Schur functions given by studying the affine grassmannian order of  Lam-Lapointe-Morse-Shimozono. Also, we define operators associated to the graph on dual $k$-Schur functions which are analogous to the ones given for the Schubert vs. Schur problem. This is the first step of our more general program of showing combinatorially  the positivity of the multiplication of a dual $k$-Schur function by a Schur function.

We introduce the quantum multi–Schur functions, quantum factorial Schur functions and quantum Macdonald polynomials. We prove that for restricted vexillary permutations, the quantum double Schubert polynomial coincides with some quantum multi-Schur function and prove a quantum analog of the Nägelsbach–Kostka and Jacobi–Trudi formulae for the quantum double Schubert polynomials in the case of Grassmannian permutations. We prove also an analog of the Giambelli and the Billey–Jockusch–Stanley formula for quantum Schubert polynomials. Finally we formulate two conjectures about the structure of quantum double and quantum Schubert polynomials for 321–avoiding permutations.

International audience We define a $0$-Hecke action on composition tableaux, and then use it to derive $0$-Hecke modules whose quasisymmetric characteristic is a quasisymmetric Schur function. We then relate the modules to the weak Bruhat order and use them to derive a new basis for quasisymmetric functions. We also classify those modules that are tableau-cyclic and likewise indecomposable. Finally, we develop a restriction rule that reflects the coproduct of quasisymmetric Schur functions. Nous définissons une action $0$-Hecke sur les tableaux de composition, et ensuite nous l’utilisons pour dériver les modules $0$-Hecke dont la caractéristique quasi-symétrique est une fonction de Schur quasi-symétrique. Nous mettons les modules en relation avec l’ordre de Bruhat faible et les utilisons pour dériver une nouvelle base pour les fonctions quasi-symétriques. Nous classons aussi ces modules qui sont tableau-cycliques et aussi indécomposable. Enfin, nous développons une règle de restriction qui reflète le coproduit des fonctions de Schur quasi-symétriques.

Quasisymmetric Schur Functions

International audience We introduce a new basis for the algebra of quasisymmetric functions that naturally partitions Schur functions, called quasisymmetric Schur functions. We describe their expansion in terms of fundamental quasisymmetric functions and determine when a quasisymmetric Schur function is equal to a fundamental quasisymmetric function. We conclude by describing a Pieri rule for quasisymmetric Schur functions that naturally generalizes the Pieri rule for Schur functions. Nous étudions une nouvelle base des fonctions quasisymétriques, les fonctions de quasiSchur. Ces fonctions sont obtenues en spécialisant les fonctions de Macdonald dissymétrique. Nous décrivons les compositions que donne une simple fonction quasisymétriques. Nous décrivons aussi une règle par certaines fonctions de Schur.

The Relationship

International audience Haglund, Luoto, Mason, and van Willigenburg introduced a basis for quasisymmetric functions called the $\textit{quasisymmetric Schur function basis}$ which are generated combinatorially through fillings of composition diagrams in much the same way as Schur functions are generated through reverse column-strict tableaux. We introduce a new basis for quasisymmetric functions called the $\textit{row-strict quasisymmetric Schur function basis}$ which are generated combinatorially through fillings of composition diagrams in much the same way as Schur functions are generated through row-strict tableaux. We describe the relationship between this new basis and other known bases for quasisymmetric functions, as well as its relationship to Schur polynomials. We obtain a refinement of the omega transform operator as a result of these relationships. Haglund, Luoto, Mason, et van Willigenburg ont introduit une base pour les fonctions quasi-symétriques appelée $\textit{base des fonctions de Schur quasi-symétriques}$, qui sont construites en remplissant des diagrammes de compositions, d'une manière très semblable à la construction des fonctions de Schur à partir des tableaux "column-strict'' (ordre strict sur les colonnes). Nous introduisons une nouvelle base pour les fonctions quasi-symétriques appelée $\textit{base des fonctions de Schur quasi-symétriques "row-strict''}$, qui sont construites en remplissant des diagrammes de compositions, d'une manière très semblable à la construction des fonctions de Schur à partir des tableaux "row-strict'' (ordre strict sur les lignes). Nous décrivons la relation entre cette nouvelle base et d'autres bases connues pour les fonctions quasi-symétriques, ainsi que ses relations avec les polynômes de Schur. Nous obtenons un raffinement de l'opérateur oméga comme conséquence de ces relations.

AbstractWe construct the Schubert basis of the torus-equivariant K-homology of the affine Grassmannian of a simple algebraic group G, using the K-theoretic NilHecke ring of Kostant and Kumar. This is the K-theoretic analogue of a construction of Peterson in equivariant homology. For the case where G=SLn, the K-homology of the affine Grassmannian is identified with a sub-Hopf algebra of the ring of symmetric functions. The Schubert basis is represented by inhomogeneous symmetric functions, calledK-k-Schur functions, whose highest-degree term is a k-Schur function. The dual basis in K-cohomology is given by the affine stable Grothendieck polynomials, verifying a conjecture of Lam. In addition, we give a Pieri rule in K-homology. Many of our constructions have geometric interpretations by means of Kashiwara’s thick affine flag manifold.

AbstractThe dual immaculate functions are a basis of the ring QSym of quasisymmetric functions and form one of the most natural analogues of the Schur functions. The dual immaculate function corresponding to a composition is a weighted generating function for immaculate tableaux in the same way as a Schur function is for semistandard Young tableaux; an immaculate tableau is defined similarly to a semistandard Young tableau, but the shape is a composition rather than a partition, and only the first column is required to strictly increase (whereas the other columns can be arbitrary, but each row has to weakly increase). Dual immaculate functions were introduced by Berg, Bergeron, Saliola, Serrano, and Zabrocki in arXiv:1208.5191, and have since been found to possess numerous nontrivial properties.In this note, we prove a conjecture of M. Zabrocki that provides an alternative construction for the dual immaculate functions in terms of certain “vertex operators”. The proof uses a dendriform structure on the ring QSym; we discuss the relation of this structure to known dendriformstructures on the combinatorial Hopf algebras FQSym andWQSym.

Partition Theorems

In the context of generating functions for $P$-partitions, we revisit three flavors of quasisymmetric functions: Gessel's quasisymmetric functions, Chow's type B quasisymmetric functions, and Poirier's signed quasisymmetric functions. In each case we use the inner coproduct to give a combinatorial description (counting pairs of permutations) to the multiplication in: Solomon's type A descent algebra, Solomon's type B descent algebra, and the Mantaci-Reutenauer algebra, respectively. The presentation is brief and elementary, our main results coming as consequences of $P$-partition theorems already in the literature.

We compute, mimicking the Lascoux-Schützenberger type A combinatorial procedure, left and right keys for a Kashiwara-Nakashima tableau in type C. These symplectic keys have a similar role as the keys for semistandard Young tableaux. More precisely, our symplectic keys give a tableau criterion for the Bruhat order on the hyperoctahedral group and cosets, and describe Demazure atoms and characters in type C. The right and the left symplectic keys are related through the Lusztig involution. A type C Schützenberger evacuation is defined to realize that involution.

The classical Pieri formula gives a combinatorial rule for decomposing the product of a Schur function and a complete homogeneous symmetric polynomial as a linear combination of Schur functions with integer coefficients. We give a Pieri rule for describing the product of an orthosymplectic character and an orthosymplectic character arising from a one-row partition. We establish that the orthosymplectic Pieri rule coincides with Sundaram's Pieri rule for symplectic characters and that orthosymplectic characters and symplectic characters obey the same product rule.
