Majorization and Schur Polynomials

Let me first define the majorization order (or dominance order) on partitions as $\lambda \succeq \mu$ iff $$\sum _{i=1}^{k}\lambda_i \geq \sum_{i=1}^{k}\mu_i$$ for all $1\le k\le l-1$ and $$\lambda_1+...

An identity related to partitions into $n$ parts and Schur polynomials

While working with Schur polynomials I found what seems like a nice identity, and I wonder if it has a simple proof. Notation: Suppose $d,n\in\mathbb{N}$, and $\lambda =(\lambda_1,\dots,\lambda_n)$ ...
