Why are these Littlewood-Richardson coefficients congruent to 1 mod 8?
Let $n\in{\mathbb N}$ and write $n=q_1+q_2+\dots+q_t$, where $q_1>q_2>\dots>q_t$ are powers of $2$. Let $\lambda_n$ be the partition with Frobenius symbol $(q_1-1,q_2-1,\dots,q_t-1;q_t,q_{t-1}...

$\text{Determinant}=(\sum \text{Determinant})^2$
Denote by $\delta_{n-1}=(n-1,n-2,\dots,1,0,0,\dots)$ the staircase partition and the embedded partition
$\lambda=(\lambda_1,\lambda_2,\dots)\subset\delta_{n-1}$.
QUESTION 1. Is this true?
$$\det\...

Identity for classes of plane partitions
There are several classes of plane partitions in the literature.
Among these, let's look at the enumeration of three of them: the symmetric (SPP), totally symmetric (TSPP) and totally symmetric and ...

What is $\dim D^{\lambda}$ for the symmetric group?
What are the dimensions of the simple modules $D^{\lambda}=S^{\lambda}/S^{\lambda}\cap (S^{\lambda})^{\perp}$ for the modular representation theory of $S_n$, i.e. $\operatorname{char}(k)=p>0$?
I ...

Enumerating a class of polynomials
How many equivalence classes of $\Bbb F_2[x,y]$ polynomials with $x$ degree $n_x$ and $y$ degree $n_y$ are there such that each $y^i$ coefficient (polynomial in $\Bbb Z[x]$) is distinct and $x^i$ ...

Adding a row to a Young Tableau via Novelli-Pak-Stoyanovskii
Let $T_{\lambda}$ be the set of standard young tableaux (SYT) of shape $\lambda_1\geq \lambda_2\cdots\geq \lambda_n$. Now consider pushing a row $\mu$ with $\mu\geq \lambda_1$ onto $Y$ to give shape $\...

On characters of the symmetric group: Part 1
Given an integer partition $\lambda$, denote $\ell(\lambda)=$ length, $\vert\lambda\vert=$ size and $\lambda=$ conjugate of $\lambda$. Allow to write $\lambda\vdash n$ either as $(\lambda_1,\dots,\...

Ramanujan's theta functions and hook lengths?
Given an integer partition $\lambda\vdash n$ of $n$, one may associate a Young diagram $Y(\lambda)$ to it followed by a computation of hook length $h_{\square}$ for each cell $\square=(i,j)$ in $Y(\...

Upper bound on decomposition numbers for the symmetric group in a block of weight $w$
The $p$-blocks of the symmetric group $S_n$ are labelled by pairs $(\gamma, w)$ where $\gamma$ is a $p$-core partition, $w \in \mathbb{N}_0$ is the weight of the block, and $|\gamma| + p w = n$. ...

Explicit formulas for the action of the Hall algebra of the cyclic quiver on q-Fock space?
In their paper on the decomposition numbers of Schur algebra, Vasserot and Varagnolo introduce an action of the (twisted) Hall algebra of a cyclic quiver $\Gamma$ on q-Fock space.
Without q-shifts, ...
