This is the first in a series of papers in which we describe explicit structural properties of spaces of diagonal rectangular harmonic polynomials in $k$ sets of $n$ variables, both as $GL_k$-modules and $S_n$-modules, as well as some of there relations to areas such as Algebraic Combinatorics, Representation Theory, Algebraic Geometry, Knot Theory, and Theoretical Physics. Our global aim is to develop a unifying point of view for several areas of research of the last two decades having to do with Macdonald Polynomials Operator Theory, Diagonal Coinvariant Spaces, Rectangular-Catalan Combinatorics, the Delta-Conjecture, Hilbert Scheme of Points in the Plane, Khovanov-Rozansky Homology of $(m,n)$-Torus links, etc.
For finite complex reflexion groups, we consider the graded $W$-modules of diagonally harmonic polynomials in $r$ sets of variables, and show that associated Hilbert series may be described in a global manner, independent of the value of $r$.
We give an explicit combinatorial formula for some irreducible components of $GL_k\times \mathbb{S}_n$-modules of multivariate diagonal harmonics. To this end we introduce a new path combinatorial object $T_{n,s}$ allowing us to give the formula directly in terms of Schur functions. This paper also contains formulas written in terms of Schur functions in the $q$ and $t$ variables for special cases of $\nabla(e_n)$, $\nabla^r(e_n)$ and $Δ'_{e_k}(e_n)$. We also give an interpretation in term of path to the adjoint dual Pieri rule applied on these $GL_k\times \mathbb{S}_n$-characters.
Let \sum_{n\in N^d} f_{n_1, ..., n_d} x_1^{n_1}... x_d^{n_d} be a multivariate generating function that converges in a neighborhood of the origin of C^d. We present a new, multivariate method for computing the asymptotics of the diagonal coefficients f_{a_1n,...,a_dn} and show its superiority over the standard, univariate diagonal method.
The purpose of this paper is mostly to present conjectures that extend, to the ``triangular partition'' context (partitions ``under any line'' in the terminology of Blaziak-Haiman-Morse-Pun-Seelinger), properties of Frobenius of multivariate diagonal harmonics modules
Combinatorial aspects of multivariate diagonal invariants of the symmetric group are studied. As a consequence it is proved the existence of a multivariate extension of the classical Robinson-Schensted correspondence. Further byproduct are a pure combinatorial algorithm to describe the irreducible decomposition of the tensor product of two irreducible representations of the symmetric group, and new symmetry results on permutation enumeration with respect to descent sets.
We consider the graded $§_n$-modules of higher diagonally harmonic polynomials in three sets of variables (the trivariate case), and show that they have interesting ties with generalizations of the Tamari poset and parking functions. In particular we get several nice formulas for the associated Hilbert series and graded Frobenius characteristic. This also leads to entirely new combinatorial formulas.
For a Weyl group W and its reflection representation mathfrak{h}, we find the character and Hilbert series for a quotient ring of C[mathfrak{h} oplus mathfrak{h}^*] by an ideal containing the W--invariant polynomials without constant term. This confirms conjectures of Haiman. The proof makes use of rational Cherednik algebras, as studied by Etingof and Ginzburg, and others.
We describe a general conjecture on how one may derive from the generic bosonic case all structural properties of multivariate diagonal coinvariant modules in $k$ sets of $n$ commuting variables (bosons), and $j$ sets of $n$ anticommuting variables (fermions).
It will be shown here that there are differential operators $E,F$ and $H=[E,F]$ for each $n\ge 1$, acting on Diagonal Harmonics, yielding that $DH_n$ is a representation of $sl[2]$ (see [3] Chapter 3). Our main effort here is to use $sl[2]$ theory to predict a basis for the Diagonal Harmonic Alternants, $DHA_n$. It can be shown that the irreducible representations $sl[2]$ are all of the form $P,EP,E^2P,\cdots,E^kP$, with $FP=0$ and $E^{k+1}P=0$. The polynomial $P$ is known to be called a "String Starter". From $sl[2]$ theory it follows that $DHA_n$ is a direct sum of strings. Our main result s…
We introduce deformations of the space of (multi-diagonal) harmonic polynomials for any finite complex reflection group of the form W=G(m,p,n), and give supporting evidence that this space seems to always be isomorphic, as a graded W-module, to the undeformed version.
In the context of the ring Q[x,y], of polynomials in 2n variables x=x1,...,x_n and y=y1,...,yn, we introduce the notion of diagonally quasi-symmetric polynomials. These, also called "diagonal Temperley-Lieb invariants", make possible the further introduction of the space of "diagonal Temperley-Lieb harmonics" and "diagonal Temperley-Lieb coinvariant space". We present new results and conjectures concerning these spaces, as well as the space obtained as the quotient of the ring of diagonal Temperley-Lieb invariants by the ideal generated by constant term free diagonally symmetric invariants. We…
We construct examples of nonnegative harmonic functions on certain graded graphs: the Young lattice and its generalizations. Such functions first emerged in harmonic analysis on the infinite symmetric group. Our method relies on multivariate interpolation polynomials associated with Schur's S and P functions and with Jack symmetric functions. As a by-product, we compute certain Selberg-type integrals.
A result of Haglund implies that the $(q,t)$-bigraded Hilbert series of the space of diagonal harmonics is a $(q,t)$-Ehrhart function of the flow polytope of a complete graph with netflow vector $(-n, 1, \dots, 1)$. We study the $(q,t)$-Ehrhart functions of flow polytopes of threshold graphs with arbitrary netflow vectors. Our results generalize previously known specializations of the mentioned bigraded Hilbert series at $t=1$, $0$, and $q^{-1}$. As a corollary to our results, we obtain a proof of a conjecture of Armstrong, Garsia, Haglund, Rhoades and Sagan about the $(q, q^{-1})$-Ehrhart fun…
In 2003, Haglund's {\sf bounce} statistic gave the first combinatorial interpretation of the $q,t$-Catalan numbers and the Hilbert series of diagonal harmonics. In this paper we propose a new combinatorial interpretation in terms of the affine Weyl group of type $A$. In particular, we define two statistics on affine permutations; one in terms of the Shi hyperplane arrangement, and one in terms of a new arrangement - which we call the Ish arrangement. We prove that our statistics are equivalent to the {\sf area'} and {\sf bounce} statistics of Haglund and Loehr. In this setting, we observe that…
The coefficient sequences of multivariate rational functions appear in many areas of combinatorics. Their diagonal coefficient sequences enjoy nice arithmetic and asymptotic properties, and the field of analytic combinatorics in several variables (ACSV) makes it possible to compute asymptotic expansions. We consider these methods from the point of view of effectivity. In particular, given a rational function, ACSV requires one to determine a (generically) finite collection of points that are called critical and minimal. Criticality is an algebraic condition, meaning it is well treated by class…
Given a list of $n$ cells $L=[(p_1,q_1),...,(p_n, q_n)]$ where $p_i, q_i\in \textbf{Z}_{\ge 0}$, we let $Δ_L=\det |{(p_j!)^{-1}(q_j!)^{-1} x^{p_j}_iy^{q_j}_i} |$. The space of diagonally alternating polynomials is spanned by $\{Δ_L\}$ where $L$ varies among all lists with $n$ cells. For $a>0$, the operators $E_a=\sum_{i=1}^{n} y_i\partial_{x_i}^a$ act on diagonally alternating polynomials and Haiman has shown that the space $A_n$ of diagonally alternating harmonic polynomials is spanned by $\{E_λΔ_n\}$. For $t=(t_m,...,t_1)\in \textbf{Z}_{> 0}^m$ with $t_m>...>t_1>0$, we consider here the oper…
Tesler matrices are certain integral matrices counted by the Kostant partition function and have appeared recently in Haglund's study of diagonal harmonics. In 2014, Drew Armstrong defined a poset on such matrices and conjectured that the characteristic polynomial of this poset is a power of $(q-1)$. We use a method of Hallam and Sagan to prove a stronger version of this conjecture for posets of a certain class of generalized Tesler matrices. We also study bounds for the number of Tesler matrices and how they compare to the number of parking functions, the dimension of the space of diagonal ha…
Earlier we showed that the Hilbert scheme of $n$ points in the plane can be identified with the Hilbert scheme of regular $S_n$ orbits on $C^{2n}$. Using this result, together with a recent theorem of Bridgeland, King and Reid on the generalized McKay correspondence, we prove vanishing theorems for tensor powers of tautological bundles on the Hilbert scheme. We apply the vanishing theorems to establish (among other things) the character formula for diagonal harmonics conjectured by Garsia and the author. In particular we prove that the dimension of the space of diagonal harmonics is equal to $…
