Smirnov words and the Delta Conjectures

Abstract

We provide a combinatorial interpretation of the symmetric function ${{\Theta }_{e_k}{\Theta }_{e_l}\nabla e_{n-k-l}|}_{t=0}$ in terms of segmented Smirnov words. The motivation for this work is the study of a diagonal coinvariant ring with one set of commuting and two sets of anti-commuting variables, whose Frobenius characteristic is conjectured to be the symmetric function in question. Furthermore, this function is related to the Delta conjectures. Our work is a step towards a unified formulation of the two versions, as we prove a unified Delta theorem at $t=0$.
