Two infinite families of counterexamples to the Stanley--Gasharov conjecture
David G. L. Wang, K. Zhang, T. Y. Zhao
The Stanley--Gasharov conjecture asserts that every claw-free graph is Schur-positive. Prajapati and, independently, Matherne and Morales identified the same pair of counterexample…

The trinacria graphs are -positive
Simon Y. M. Gong, David G. L. Wang, K. Zhang
In this paper, we identify a new family of -positive graphs, called the trinacria graphs , thereby providing a partial answer to Stanley's question on which graphs…

Exact thresholds for Schur positivity of the lattices and
David G. L. Wang, K. Zhang
We determine the exact thresholds for Schur positivity in the two families of chain products and : the former is Schur positive e…
