Skew Row-Strict Quasisymmetric Schur Functions, Sarah K. Mason, Elizabeth Niese Nov 2015

Skew Row-Strict Quasisymmetric Schur Functions, Sarah K. Mason, Elizabeth Niese

Mathematics Faculty Research

Mason and Remmel introduced a basis for quasisymmetric functions known as the row-strict quasisymmetric Schur functions. This basis is generated combinatorially by fillings of composition diagrams that are analogous to the row-strict tableaux that generate Schur functions. We introduce a modification known as Young row-strict quasisymmetric Schur functions, which are generated by row-strict Young composition fillings. After discussing basic combinatorial properties of these functions, we define a skew Young row-strict quasisymmetric Schur function using the Hopf algebra of quasisymmetric functions and then prove this is equivalent to a combinatorial description. We also provide a decomposition of the skew Young row-strict …

A boundary Nevanlinna-Pick interpolation problem is posed and solved in the quaternionic setting. Given nonnegative real numbers κ1,…,κN, quaternions p1,…,pN all of modulus 1, so that the 2-spheres determined by each point do not intersect and pu≠1 for u=1,…,N, and quaternions s1,…,sN, we wish to find a slice hyperholomorphic Schur function s so that
limr→1r∈(0,1)s(rpu)=suforu=1,…,N,
and
limr→1r∈(0,1)1−s(rpu)su¯¯¯¯¯1−r≤κu,foru=1,…,N.
Our arguments relies on the theory of slice hyperholomorphic functions and reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces.
