$\mathbb{C}(x,f,g)=\mathbb{C}(x,y)$, with each pair of $\{f,g,x\}$ not generating $\mathbb{C}(x,y)$

Let $f,g \in \mathbb{C}[x,y]$ with total degrees $\deg_{1,1}(f),\deg_{1,1}(g) \geq 1$. Write, $f=a_ny^n+a_{n-1}y^{n-1}+\cdots+a_1y^1+a_0$ and $g=b_my^m+b_{m-1}y^{m-1}+\cdots+b_1y^1+b_0$, for some $n,m ...

Todd polynomials

Let $T_k(x_1,\ldots,x_n)$ be the Todd polynomials, $e_k(x_1,\ldots,x_n)$ the elementary symmetric polynomials and $p_k(x_1,\ldots, x_n)$ the power sums of degree $k$. We have the following generating ...

Singular locus of zero set of elementary symmetric polynomial

Let $\sigma_{m, r}$ be the degree-$r$ elementary symmetric polynomial in $m$ variables. Let $X_{m, r}$ be the zero set of $\sigma_{m, r}$ and $S_{m, r}$ its singular locus. I.e., $S_{m,r}$ is the set ...

What is known about zero-sets of Schur polynomials?

Consider a set S of partitions not containing the empty partition (I would be happy with, say, all the partitions of size less than k, except for the empty one). Let $U_\lambda^{(r)}$ be the zero-...
