A Characterization of the Macdonald Hypergeometric Series $_{r} Φ_{s} (x; q, t)$ and $_{r} Φ_{s} (x, y; q, t)$ via $q$ -Difference Equations

Hong Chen

In two widely circulated manuscripts from the 1980s, I. G. Macdonald introduced certain multivariate hypergeometric series $_{p} F_{q} (x; α)$ and $_{p} F_{q} (x, y; α)$ and their $q$ -analogs…

A Characterization of Macdonald's Jack Hypergeometric Series $_{p} F_{q} (x; α)$ and $_{p} F_{q} (x, y; α)$ via Differential Equations

Hong Chen, Siddhartha Sahi

In a widely circulated manuscript from the 1980s, now available on the arXiv, I.~G.~Macdonald introduced certain multivariable hypergeometric series $_{p} F_{q} (x) =_{p} F_{q} (x; α)$ and…

Majorization via positivity of Jack and Macdonald polynomial differences

Hong Chen, Apoorva Khare, Siddhartha Sahi

Majorization inequalities have a long history, going back to Maclaurin and Newton. They were recently studied for several families of symmetric functions, including by Cuttler--Gre…

Monotonicity for generalized binomial coefficients and Jack positivity

Hong Chen, Siddhartha Sahi

Binomial formulas for Schur polynomials and Jack polynomials were studied by Lascoux in 1978, and Kaneko, Okounkov--Olshanski and Lassalle in the 1990s. We prove that the associate…
