Galleries, Hall-Littlewood polynomials and structure constants of the spherical Hecke algebra
arXiv:math/0506287 · doi:10.1155/IMRN/2006/75395
Abstract
We provide a combinatorial description of the coefficients appearing in the expansion of Hall-Littlewood polynomials in terms of monomial symmetric functions. We also give a Littlewood-Richardson rule for Hall-Littlewood polynomials. For proving this we use galleries to calculate Satake coefficients and structure constants of spherical Hecke algebras with arbitrary parameters.
