Skew Littlewood―Richardson rules from Hopf algebras

Abstract
English
We use Hopf algebras to prove a version of the Littlewood―Richardson rule for skew Schur functions, which implies a conjecture of Assaf and McNamara. We also establish skew Littlewood―Richardson rules for Schur $P-$ and $Q-$functions and noncommutative ribbon Schur functions, as well as skew Pieri rules for k-Schur functions, dual k-Schur functions, and for the homology of the affine Grassmannian of the symplectic group.

Nous établissons également des règles de Littlewood―Richardson gauches pour les $P-$ et $Q-$fonctions de Schur et les fonctions de Schur rubbans non commutatives, ainsi que des règles de Pieri gauches pour les $k-$fonctions de Schur, les $k-$fonctions de Schur duales, et pour l'homologie de la Grassmannienne affine du groupe symplectique.
