On a Pieri-like rule for the Petrie symmetric functions
Emma Yu Jin, Naihuan Jing, Ning Liu
A -ribbon tiling is a decomposition of a connected skew diagram into disjoint ribbons of size . In this paper, we establish a connection between a subset of -ribbon tiling…

Equality of skew Schur functions in noncommuting variables
Emma Yu Jin, Stephanie van Willigenburg
The question of classifying when two skew Schur functions are equal is a substantial open problem, which remains unsolved for over a century. In 2022, Aliniaeifard, Li and van Will…
