Combinatorial structure of the entanglement spectrum and quantum error correction in finite vector spaces
Let $V$ be a finite-dimensional vector space over $\mathbb{C}$ with dimension $d$. Consider a subspace $S \subset V^{\otimes n}$ representing the code subspace of a quantum error correcting code. We ...

Expressing symmetric function in power-sum basis
I am trying to prove the following identity
\begin{equation}
\prod_{i=1}^{m}(1-x_{i}z)^{-u}\prod_{j=1}^{n}(1-y_{i}z)^{-v} \prod_{i=1}^{m}\prod_{j=1}^{n}(1-(x_i +y_j)z)^{-w}\\ = \sum_{\lambda, \mu}c_{\...

In search of a combinatorial proof on particular set of partitions
Given a partition $\lambda=(\lambda_1\geq\lambda_2\geq\dots)$, denote the conjugate partition by $\lambda'=(\lambda_1'\geq\lambda_2'\geq\dots)$. For example, if $\lambda=(4,2,2)$ then $\lambda'=(3,3,1,...

Jack function in power symmetric basis
In Macdonald's book, the Jack symmetric function $J_{\lambda}(x_1,\ldots, x_n)$ for a partition $\lambda$
is defined by three properties (orthogonality, triangularity, and normalization). In the ...

Young tableaux for exceptional Lie algebras
Irreducible representations for the $A$-series Lie algebras are labelled Young diagrams, with a basis of each given by Young tableaux. Moreover, analogues exist for the $B,C$, and $D$ series.
Does ...

what else is in $\prod_{j=1}^n(1+q^j)$?
From time to time, I run into the finite product $\prod_{j=1}^n(1+q^j)$. And, the more it happens, the more fascinated I've become. So, herein, I wish to get help in collecting such results. To give ...

Differences of Numbers of Helicity States in 4-dimensional Strings
The question whether the states in $D=2m + 2$ dimensional string theory,
which carry a representation of $SO(2m)$, span spaces which carry
representations of $SO(2m+1)$ seems hopelessly complicated.
