Symmetric functions are symmetric polynomials, in finitely many, or countably infinitely many variables. They arise in the representation theory of symmetric groups and in the polynomial representation theory of general linear groups. Bases of the ring of symmetric functions are indexed by integer partitions. Schur functions, elementary symmetric functions, complete symmetric functions, and power sum symmetric functions are the most commonly used bases.

Generalization of elementary symmetric polynomials
The elementary symmetric polynomials (ESPs) are defined as -
\begin{align*}
E_{1}^{1}
&= X_1,
\\
E_{1}^{2}
&= X_1 + X_2,
\\
E_{2}^{2}
&= X_1 X_2,
\\
E_{2}^{3}
&= X_1 X_2 + X_1 X_3 + X_2 X_3,
\\
E_{k …
