Keywords Kostka polynomials Symmetric groups Schur Q-functions Hall Littlewood functions q-weight multiplicity Hecke Clifford algebra 1 Introduction 1.1 The Kostka numbers and Kostka Foulkes) polynomials are ubiquitous in algebraic combinatorics, geometry, and representation theory. A most interesting property of Kostka polynomials is that they have non-negative integer coefficients due to Lascoux and Schützenberger [11]), and this has been derived by Garsia and Procesi [5] from Springer theory of Weyl group representations [18]. Kostka polynomials also coincide with Lusztig s q-weight multiplicity in finite-dimensional irreducible representations of the general linear Lie algebra [9, 12]. R. Brylinski [1] introduced a Brylinski Kostant filtration on weight spaces of finite-dimensional irreducible representations and proved that Lusztig s q-weight multiplicities and hence Kostka polynomials) are precisely the polynomials associated to such a filtration.

2 118 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: Kostka polynomials, we refer to Macdonald [13] or the survey paper of Désarménien, Leclerc and Thibon [3]. The classical theory of representations and characters of symmetric groups admits a remarkable spin generalization due to Schur [15]. Many important constructions for symmetric groups and symmetric functions admit highly nontrivial spin counterparts, including Schur Q-functions and shifted tableaux cf. e.g. [13]) and Robinson- Shensted-Knuth correspondence see Sagan [14]). The goal of this paper is to add several items to the list of spin counterparts of classical theory. We introduce a notion of spin Kostka polynomials, and establish their main properties including the integrality and positivity as well as representation theoretic interpretations. We also introduce a notion of spin Hall Littlewood polynomials. Our constructions afford natural q,t-generalizations in connection with Macdonald polynomials. The definitions made in this paper look very classical, and we are led to them from representation theoretic considerations. Once things are set up right, the proofs of the main results, which are based on the classical deep work on Kostka polynomials, are remarkably easy. There has been a very interesting work of Tudose and Zabrocki [20] who defined a version of spin Kostka polynomials and spin Hall Littlewood polynomials in different terminology), adapting the vertex operator technique developed by Jing [7] and others cf. Shimozono and Zabrocki [17]). Their definitions do not coincide with ours as shown by examples, and the precise connection between the two if it exists) remains unclear. The Q-Kostka polynomials of Tudose and Zabrocki conjecturally admit integrality and positivity, but their approach does not seem to easily exhibit the connections to representation theory or afford q,t-generalization as developed in this paper. Throughout the paper we work with the complex field C as the ground field. 1.2 Denote by P the set of partitions and by P n the set of partitions of n. Denote by SP the set of strict partitions and by SP n the set of strict partitions of n.letλdenote the ring of symmetric functions in x = x 1,x 2,...), and let Γ be the subring of Λ with a Z-basis given by the Schur Q-functions Q ξ x) indexed by ξ SP, cf.[13]. As an element in the ring Λ, the Schur Q-functions Q ξ x) can be expressed as a linear combination in the basis of the Hall Littlewood functions P μ x; t) and we define the spin Kostka polynomial Kξμ t), forξ SP and μ P, to be the corresponding coefficient; see 2.7). Recall that the entries K λμ t), λ, μ P of the transition matrix from the Schur basis {s λ } to the Hall Littlewood basis {P μ x; t)} for Z[t] Z Λ are the Kostka polynomials. Our first result concerns some remarkable properties satisfied by the spin Kostka polynomials compare with Theorem 2.1, where some well-known properties of the usual Kostka polynomials are listed). For a partition λ P with length lλ), weset nλ) = { 0, if lλ) is even, 1)λ i, δλ)= 1, if lλ) is odd. i 1i
3 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: For ξ SP, we denote by ξ the shifted diagram of ξ, byc ij the content, by h ij the shifted hook length of the cell i, j) ξ.alsoletkξμ be the number of marked shifted tableaux of shape ξ and weight μ; see Sect. 2.2 for precise definitions. Theorem A The spin Kostka polynomials Kξμ t) for ξ SP n,μ P n have the following properties: 1) Kξμ t) = 0 unless ξ μ; K ξξ t) = 2lξ). 2) The degree of the polynomial Kξμ t) is nμ) nξ). 3) 2 lξ) Kξμ t) is a polynomial with non-negative integer coefficients. 4) Kξμ 1) = K ξμ ; K ξμ 1) = 2lξ) δ ξμ. 5) K n)μ t) = tnμ) lμ) i=1 1 + t1 i ). 6) K ξ1 n ) t) = tnξ) 1 t)1 t 2 ) 1 t n ) i,j) ξ 1+tcij ). i,j) ξ 1 th ij ) 1.3 It is known cf. Kleshchev [10]) that the spin representation theory of the symmetric group is equivalent to its counterpart for Hecke Clifford algebra H n := C n, and the irreducible H n -super)modules D ξ are parameterized by strict partitions ξ SP n. The Hecke Clifford algebra H n as well as its modules in this paper admit a Z 2 -graded i.e, super) structure even though we will avoid using the terminology of supermodules. For a partition μ P n,letb μ be the variety of flags preserved by a nilpotent matrix of Jordan block form of shape μ, which is a closed subvariety of the flag variety B of GL n C). The cohomology group H B μ ) of B μ is naturally an S n -module, and the induced H n -module ind H n H B μ ) = C n H B μ ) is Z + -graded, with the grading inherited from the one on H B μ ). Define a polynomial Cξμ t) as a graded multiplicity) by C ξμ t) := i 0 t i dim Hom Hn D ξ, C n H 2i B μ ) )), 1.1) which should be morally viewed as a version of Springer theory undeveloped yet) of the queer Lie supergroups. The queer Lie superalgebra qn) contains the general linear Lie algebra gln) as its even subalgebra, and its irreducible polynomial representations Vξ)are parameterized by highest weights ξ SP with lξ) n.lete be a regular nilpotent element in gln), regarded as an element in the even subalgebra of qn). Forμ P with lμ) n, using the action of e we introduce a Brylinski Kostant filtration on the weight space Vξ) μ and denote by γξμ t) the associated polynomial or q-weight multiplicity). The spin Kostka polynomial Kξμ t) can be interpreted in terms of graded multiplicity C ξμ t) as well as the q-weight multiplicity γ ξμ t) as follows also see Proposition 3.3 for another expression of q-weight multiplicity).
4 120 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: Theorem B Suppose ξ SP n,μ P n. Then we have 1) Kξμ lξ) δξ) t) = 2 2 Cξμ t 1 )t nμ). 2) Kξμ lξ) δξ) t) = 2 2 γξμ t). Theorem A6) and Theorem B1) for μ = 1 n ) note that B 1 n ) = B) are reinterpretation of a main result of our previous work [21] on the spin coinvariant algebra. Actually, this has been our original motivation of introducing spin Kostka polynomials and finding representation theoretic interpretations. The two interpretations of the spin Kostka polynomials in Theorem B are connected to each other via Schur Sergeev duality between qn) and the Hecke Clifford algebra [16]. 1.4 In Sect. 4, we construct a map Φ and a commutative diagram: where ϕ givenin4.1) isasin[13, III, Sect. 8, Example 10], and ch and ch are characteristic maps from the module categories of S n and H n, respectively. The commutative diagram serves as a bridge of various old and new constructions, and the use of Hecke Clifford algebra provides simple representation theoretic interpretations of some symmetric function results in [19] and [13]. We further define a spin analogue Hμ x; t) of the normalized Hall Littlewood function H μx; t) via the spin Kostka polynomials. We show that Hμ x; t) coincides with the image of H μx; t) under the map ϕ, and it satisfies additional favorable properties see Theorem 4.4). We also sketch a similar construction of the spin Macdonald polynomials Hμ x; q,t) and the spin q,t-kostka polynomials K ξμ q, t). The use of Φ and ϕ makes such a q,t-generalization possible. 1.5 The paper is organized as follows. In Sect. 2, we review some basics on Kostka polynomials, introduce the spin Kostka polynomials, and then prove Theorem A. The representation theoretic interpretations of spin Kostka polynomials are presented and Theorem B is proved in Sect. 3. In Sect. 4, we introduce the spin Hall Littlewood functions, spin Macdonald polynomials and spin q,t-kostka polynomials. We end the paper with a list of open problems. 2 Spin Kostka polynomials In this section, we shall first review the basics for Kostka polynomials. Then, we introduce the spin Kostka polynomials and prove that these polynomials satisfy the properties listed in Theorem A.
5 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: Basics on Kostka polynomials A partition λ will be identified with its Young diagram, that is, λ ={i, j) Z 2 1 i lλ), 1 j λ i }. To each cell i, j) λ, we associate its content c ij = j i and hook length h ij = λ i + λ j i j + 1, where λ = λ 1,λ 2,...) is the conjugate partition of λ.forλ,μ P,letK λμ be the Kostka number, which counts the number of semistandard tableaux of shape λ and weight μ. We write λ =n for λ P n.the dominance order on P is defined by letting λ μ λ = μ and λ 1 + +λ i μ 1 + +μ i, i 1. Let λ,μ P. The Koksta polynomial K λμ t) is defined by s λ x) = μ K λμ t)p μ x; t), 2.1) where P μ x; t) and s λ x) are Hall Littlewood functions and Schur functions, respectively cf. [13, III, Sect. 2]). The following is a summary of a long development by many authors. Theorem 2.1 Cf. [13], III, Sect. 6) Suppose λ,μ P n. Then the Kostka polynomial K λμ t) satisfies the following properties: 1) K λμ t) = 0 unless λ μ; K λλ t) = 1. 2) The degree of K λμ t) is nμ) nλ). 3) K λμ t) is a polynomial with non-negative integer coefficients. 4) K λμ 1) = K λμ. 5) K n)μ t) = t nμ). 6) K λ1 n ) = tnλ ) 1 t)1 t 2 ) 1 t n ). i,j) λ 1 thij ) Let B be the flag variety for the general linear group GL n C). For a partition μ of n, letb μ denote the subvariety of B consisting of flags preserved by the Jordan canonical form J μ of shape μ. It is known [18] that the cohomology group H B μ ) of B μ with complex coefficient affords a graded representation of the symmetric group S n. Define C λμ t) by C λμ t) = t i Hom Sn S λ,h 2i B μ ) ), 2.2) i 0 where S λ denotes the Specht module over S n. Theorem 2.2 Cf. [13], III, Sect. 7, Example 8; [5], 5.7)) The following holds for λ,μ P: K λμ t) = C λμ t 1 ) t nμ).
6 122 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: It is well known that the cohomology ring H B) of the flag variety B coincides with the coinvariant algebra of the symmetric group S n. Garsia and Procesi [5]gavea purely algebraic construction of the graded S n -module H B μ ) in terms of quotients of the coinvariant algebra of symmetric groups as well as a proof of Theorem 2.2. Denote by {ɛ 1,...,ɛ n } the basis dual to the standard basis {E ii 1 i n} in the standard Cartan subalgebra of gln), where E ii denotes the matrix whose i, i)th entry is 1 and zero elsewhere. Let Lλ) be the irreducible gln)-module with highest weight λ for λ P with lλ) n. For each μ P with lμ) n, define the q-weight multiplicity of weight μ in Lλ) to be m λ μ t) = [ e μ] α>0 1 e α ) α>0 1 te α ) chlλ), where the product α>0 is over all positive roots {ɛ i ɛ j 1 i<j n} for gln) and [e μ ]fe ɛ 1,...,e ɛ n) denotes the coefficient of the monomial e μ in a formal series fe ɛ 1,...,e ɛ n). According to a conjecture of Lusztig proved by Kato [9, 12], we have K λμ t) = m λ μ t). 2.3) Let e be a regular nilpotent element in the Lie algebra gln). For each μ P with lμ) n, define the Brylinski Kostant filtration on the weight space Lλ) μ by 0 Je 0 ) ) Lλ)μ J 1 e Lλ)μ with Je k ) { Lλ)μ = v Lλ)μ e k+1 v = 0 }, where we assume Je 1 Lλ) μ ) ={0}. Define a polynomial γ λμ t) by γ λμ t) = )/ )) dim J k e Lλ)μ J k 1 e Lλ)μ t k. k 0 The following theorem is due to R. Brylinski see [1, Theorem 3.4] and 2.3)). Theorem 2.3 Suppose λ,μ P with lλ) n and lμ) n. Then we have K λμ t) = γ λμ t). 2.2 Schur Q-functions and spin Kostka polynomials Given a partition λ P, suppose that the main diagonal of the Young diagram λ contains r cells. Let α i = λ i i be the number of cells in the ith row of λ strictly to the right of i, i), and let β i = λ i i be the number of cells in the ith column of λ strictly below i, i), for1 i r. Wehaveα 1 >α 2 > >α r 0 and β 1 >β 2 > > β r 0. Then the Frobenius notation for a partition is λ = α 1,...,α r β 1,...,β r ). For example, if λ = 5, 4, 3, 1), then α = 4, 2, 0), β = 3, 1, 0) and hence λ = 4, 2, 0 3, 1, 0) in Frobenius notation.
7 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: For a strict partition ξ SP n,letξ be the associated shifted Young diagram, that is, ξ = { i, j) 1 i lξ), i j ξ i + i 1 } which is obtained from the ordinary Young diagram by shifting the kth row to the right by k 1 squares, for each k. Givenξ SP n with lξ) = l, define its double partition or double diagram) ξ to be ξ = ξ 1,...,ξ l ξ 1 1,ξ 2 1,...,ξ l 1) in Frobenius notation. Clearly, the shifted Young diagram ξ coincides with the part of ξ that lies above the main diagonal. For each cell i, j) ξ, denote by h ij the associated hook length in the Young diagram ξ, and set the content c ij = j i. For example, let ξ = 4, 2, 1). The corresponding shifted diagram and double diagram are ξ =, ξ =. The contents of ξ are listed in the corresponding cells of ξ as follows: The shifted hook lengths for each cell in ξ are defined as the usual hook lengths for the corresponding cell in the double diagram ξ, as follows: , Denote by P the ordered alphabet {1 < 1 < 2 < 2 < 3 < 3 }. The symbols 1, 2, 3,... are said to be marked, and we shall denote by a the unmarked version of any a P ; that is, k = k =k for each k N. For a strict partition ξ, amarked shifted tableau T of shape ξ, oramarked shifted ξ-tableau T, is an assignment T : ξ P satisfying: M1) The letters are weakly increasing along each row and column. M2) The letters {1, 2, 3,...} are strictly increasing along each column. M3) The letters {1, 2, 3,...} are strictly increasing along each row. For a marked shifted tableau T of shape ξ,letα k be the number of cells i, j) ξ such that Ti,j) =k for k 1. The sequence α 1,α 2,α 3,...) is called the weight of T. The Schur Q-function associated to ξ can be interpreted as see [13, 14, 19]) Q ξ x) = T x T,
8 124 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: where the summation is taken over all marked shifted tableaux of shape ξ, and x T = x α 1 1 xα 2 2 xα 3 3 if T has weight α 1,α 2,α 3,...). Set K ξμ = #{T T is a marked shifted tableau of shape ξ and weight μ}. Then we have Q ξ x) = μ K ξμ m μx). 2.4) It will be convenient to introduce another family of symmetric functions q λ x) for any partition λ = λ 1,λ 2,...) as follows: q 0 x) = 1, q r x) = Q r) x) for r 1, and q λ x) = q λ1 x)q λ2 x). The generating function Qu) for q r x) is r 0 q r x)u r = Qu) = i 1 + x i u 1 x i u. 2.5) We will write q r = q r x), etc., whenever there is no need to specify the variables. Let Γ be the Z-algebra generated by q r,r 1, that is, Γ = Z[q 1,q 2,...]. 2.6) It is known that the set {Q ξ ξ SP} forms a Z-basis of Γ. Definition 2.4 The spin Kostka polynomials Kξμ t) for ξ SP and μ P are given by Q ξ x) = μ K ξμ t)p μx; t). 2.7) 2.3 Properties of spin Kostka polynomials For ξ SP, write Q ξ x) = λ P b ξλ s λ x), 2.8) for some suitable constants b ξλ. Proposition 2.5 The following holds for ξ SP and μ P: K ξμ t) = λ P b ξλ K λμ t). Proof By 2.1) and 2.8), one can deduce that Kξμ t)p μx; t)= b ξλ K λμ t)p μ x; t). λ,μ μ The proposition now follows from the fact that the Hall Littlewood functions P μ x; t) are linearly independent in Z[t] Z Λ.
9 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: The usual Kostka polynomial satisfies that K λμ 0) = δ λμ. It follows from Proposition 2.5 that For ξ SP,λ P,set K ξμ 0) = b ξμ. g ξλ = 2 lξ) b ξλ. 2.9) Lemma 2.6 [19],Theorem9.3; [13], III 8.17)) The following holds for ξ SP,λ P: g ξλ Z + ; g ξλ = 0 unless ξ λ; g ξξ = ) Stembridge [19] proved Lemma 2.6 by giving a combinatorial formula for g ξλ in terms of marked shifted tableaux. We shall give a simple representation theoretic proof of Lemma 2.6 in Sect. 3.4 for the sake of completeness. Proof of Theorem A Combining Theorem 2.11) 3), Lemma 2.6 and Proposition 2.5, we can easily verify that the spin Kostka polynomial Kξμ t) must satisfy the properties 1) 3) in Theorem A. It is known that P μ x; 1) = m μ and hence by 2.4)wehaveKξμ 1) = K ξμ.also, Q ξ = 2 lξ) P ξ x; 1), and {P μ x; 1) μ P} forms a basis for Λ see [13, p. 253]). Hence 4) is proved. By [13, III, Sect. 3, Example 13)] we have i x i 1 x i = μ lμ) t nμ) j=1 Comparing the degree n terms of 2.11) and 2.5), we obtain Q n) x) = q n x) = lμ) t nμ) μ P n j=1 1 + t 1 j ) P μ x; t). 2.11) 1 + t 1 j ) P μ x; t). Hence 5) is proved. Part 6) actually follows from Theorem B1) and the main result of [21], and let us postpone its proof after completing the proof of Theorem B1). 3 Spin Kostka polynomials and representation theory In this section, we shall give two interpretations of spin Kostka polynomials in representation theory. 3.1 The Frobenius characteristic map ch Denote by S n -mod the category of finite-dimensional S n -modules. Let R n = KS n -mod) be Grothendieck group of the category S n -mod and set
10 126 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: R = n 0 R n. Recall that R n admits an inner product by declaring the irreducible characters to be orthonormal. Also there exists an inner product, ) on the ring Λ such that the Schur functions s λ form an orthonormal basis. The Frobenius characteristic map ch : R Λ preserves the inner products and it satisfies that ch [ S λ]) = s λ, 3.1) ch ind CS λ 1 ) = h λ, λ P n, 3.2) where 1 denotes the trivial character. 3.2 Hecke Clifford algebra H n and the characteristic map ch A superalgebra A = A 0 A 1 satisfies A i A j A i+j for i, j Z 2. Denote by C n the Clifford superalgebra generated by the odd elements c 1,...,c n, subject to the relations c 2 i = 1,c i c j = c j c i for 1 i j n. The symmetric group S n acts as automorphisms on the Clifford algebra C n by permuting its generators, and the Hecke Clifford algebra is defined to be the semi-direct product H n = C n with σc i = c σi) σ, for σ S n, 1 i n. Note that the algebra H n is naturally a superalgebra by letting each σ S n be even and each c i be odd. A module over a superalgebra, e.g. H n, is always understood to be Z 2 -graded in this paper. It is known [8, 16, 19]cf.[10]) that there exists an irreducible H n -module D ξ for each strict partition ξ SP n and {D ξ ξ SP n } forms a complete set of non-isomorphic irreducible H n -modules. A superalgebra analogue of Schur s lemma states that the endomorphism algebra of a finite-dimensional irreducible module over a superalgebra is either one-dimensional or two-dimensional. It turns out that [8, 16] dim Hom Hn D ξ,d ξ ) = 2 δξ). 3.3) Denote by H n -smod the category of finite-dimensional H n -supermodules. Let R n be the Grothendieck group of the category H n -smod and define R = n 0 R n, R Q = Q Z R. Recall the ring Γ from 2.6) and set Γ Q = Q Z Γ. As a spin analogue of the Frobenius characteristic map ch, there exists an isomorphism of graded vector spaces [8] ch : R Q Γ Q It is useful to note that ch is related to ch as follows: [ D ξ ] 2 lξ) δξ) 2 Q ξ, 3.4) ind H n CS μ 1 q μ. 3.5) ch ζ ) = ch res H n ζ ), for ζ R n. 3.6)
11 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: Spin Kostka polynomials and graded multiplicity Up to some 2-power, g ξλ has the following representation theoretic interpretation. Lemma 3.1 Suppose ξ SP n,λ P n. The following holds: dim Hom Hn D ξ, ind H n S λ) = 2 lξ)+δξ) 2 g ξλ. Proof Since the H n -module ind H n S λ is semisimple, we have dim Hom Hn D ξ, ind H n S λ) = dim Hom Hn ind H n S λ,d ξ ) = dim Hom CSn S λ, res H n D ξ ) = s λ, ch res H n D ξ )) = s λ, ch D ξ )) = s λ, 2 lξ) δξ) 2 Q ξ x) ) = 2 lξ)+δξ) 2 g ξλ, where the second equation uses the Frobenius reciprocity, the third equation uses the fact that ch is an isometry, the fourth, fifth and sixth equations follow from 3.6), 3.4), and 2.8), respectively. Proof of Theorem B1) Suppose ξ SP n and μ P n. By Proposition 2.5 and Theorem 2.2, we obtain Kξμ t) = b ξλ K λμ t) = b ξλ C λμ t 1 ) t nμ). λ P n λ P n On the other hand, recalling the definition of Cξμ t) from 1.1) and the definition of C λμ t) from 2.2), we have by Lemma 3.1 that C ξμ t) = i 0 t i dim Hom Hn D ξ, ind H n H 2i B μ ) )) = λ C λμ t) dim Hom Hn D ξ, ind H n S λ) = 2 lξ) δξ) 2 λ P n b ξλ C λμ t). Now Theorem B1) follows by comparing the above two identities. With Theorem B1) at hand, we can complete the proof of Theorem A.
12 128 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: Proof of Theorem A6) Suppose ξ SP n. Observe that B 1 n ) = B and it is well known that H B) is isomorphic to the coinvariant algebra of the symmetric group S n. Hence by [21, Theorem 3.5] and 3.3) we obtain C lξ) δξ) ξ1 n )t) = 2 2 t nξ) 1 t)1 t 2 ) 1 t n ) i,j) ξ 1 + tc ij ) i,j) ξ 1, th ij ) where ξ is the shifted Young diagram associated to ξ and c ij,h ij are contents and shifted hook lengths for a cell i, j) ξ, respectively.

[13, III, Sect. 8, Example 12]) that in the ith row of ξ, the hook lengths h ij for i j ξ i + i 1are1, 2,...,ξ i,ξ i + ξ i+1,ξ i + ξ i+2,...,ξ i + ξ l with exception ξ i ξ i+1,ξ i ξ i+2,...,ξ i ξ l. 3.4 Spin Kostka polynomials and q-weight multiplicity The queer Lie superalgebra, denoted by qn), can be viewed as the subalgebra of the general linear Lie superalgebra gln n) consisting of matrices of the form ) a b, 3.7) b a where a and b are arbitrary n n matrices. Let g = qn) and In n) ={ 1,..., n, 1,...,n}. The even respectively, odd) part g 0 respectively, g 1 ) consists of those matrices of the form 3.7) with b = 0 respectively, a = 0). Denote by E ij for i, j In n) the standard elementary matrix with the i, j)th entry being 1 and zero elsewhere. Fix the triangular decomposition g = n h n +, where h respectively, n +, n ) is the subalgebra of g which consists of matrices of the form 3.7) with a,b being arbitrary diagonal respectively, upper triangular, lower triangluar) matrices. Let b = h n +. Let {ɛ i i = 1,...,n} be the basis dual to the standard basis {E ii + Eī,ī i = 1,...,n} for the even subalgebra h 0 of h, where h 0 is identified with the standard
13 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: Cartan subalgebra of gln) via the natural isomorphism qn) 0 = gln). With respect to h 0 we have the root space decomposition g = h α g α with roots = {ɛ i ɛ j 1 i j n}. The set of positive roots corresponding to the Borel subalgebra b is + ={ɛ i ɛ j 1 i<j n}. Noting that [h 1, h 1 ]=h 0, the Lie superalgebra h is not Abelian. For λ ni=1 Zɛ i h 0, define the symmetric bilinear form, λ on h 1 by v,w λ := λ[v,w]). Leth 1 h 1 be a maximal isotropic subspace and consider the subalgebra h = h 0 h 1. The one-dimensional h 0 -module Cv λ, defined by hv λ = λh)v λ, extends trivially to h. The induced h-module W λ := Ind h h Cv λ is irreducible. Extend W λ to representation of b by letting n + W λ = 0. The induced g-module ind g b W λ has a unique irreducible quotient, denoted by Vλ). We have a weight space decomposition Vλ)= μ Vλ) μ, where a weight μ can be identified with a composition μ 1,...,μ n ). For ξ SP with lξ) n,theqn)-module Vξ)is finite-dimensional. Moreover, according to Sergeev [16], the character of Vξ)by setting x i = e ɛ i )is chvξ)= 2 lξ) δξ) 2 Q ξ x 1,...,x n ). 3.8) Regarding a regular nilpotent element e in gln) as an even element in qn), we define a Brylinski Kostant filtration on the weight space Vξ) μ by 0 Je 0 ) ) Vξ)μ J 1 e Vξ)μ, where Define a polynomial γξμ t) by Je k ) { Vξ)μ := v Vξ)μ e k+1 v = 0 }. γ ξμ t) = k 0 )/ )) dim J k e Vξ)μ J k 1 Vξ)μ t k. e Recall that Lλ) denotes the irreducible representation of gln) with highest weight λ and recall g ξλ from 2.9). Up to the same 2-power as in Lemma 3.1, g ξλ has the following interpretation of branching coefficient. Lemma 3.2 As a gln)-module, Vξ)can be decomposed as Vξ) = λ P,lλ) n 2 lξ)+δξ) 2 g ξλ Lλ). Proof It suffices to verify on the character level. The corresponding character identity indeed follows from 2.8), 2.9), and 3.8), as the character of Lλ) is given by the Schur function s λ.
14 130 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: Now we give a proof of Lemma 2.6 based on representation theory of qn) as promised. It is also possible to give another proof based on representation theory of Hecke Clifford algebra H n. Proof of Lemma 2.6 It follows by Lemma 3.2 that g ξλ 0, and moreover, g ξλ = 0 unless ξ λ the dominance order for compositions coincide with the dominance order of weights for qn)). The highest weight space for the qn)-module Vξ) is W ξ, which has dimension 2 lξ)+δξ) 2. Hence, g ξξ = 1, by Lemma 3.2 again. By 3.8), 2 lξ)+δξ) 2 chvξ)= 2 lξ) Qx 1,...,x n ), which is known to lie in Λ,cf. [13] this fact can also be seen directly using representation theory of qn)). Hence, 2 lξ) Qx 1,...,x n ) is a Z-linear combination of Schur polynomials s λ. Combining with Lemma 3.2, this proves that g ξλ Z. We are ready to establish the Lie theoretic interpretation of spin Kostka polynomials. Proof of Theorem B2) The Brylinski Kostant filtration is defined via a regular nilpotent element in gln) = qn) 0, and thus it is compatible with the decomposition in Lemma 3.2. Hence, we have Je k ) Vξ)μ = 2 lξ)+δξ) 2 g ξλ Je k ) Lλ)μ. It follows by the definitions of the polynomials γ ξμ t) and γ λμt) that λ γ ξμ t) = λ 2 lξ)+δξ) 2 g ξλ γ λμ t). Then by Theorem 2.3 we obtain γ ξμ t) = λ 2 lξ)+δξ) 2 g ξλ K λμ t) = λ 2 lξ) δξ) 2 b ξλ K λμ t). This together with Proposition 2.5 proves Theorem B2). The interpretation of spin Kostka polynomials as q-weight multiplicity can take another form. Proposition 3.3 Suppose ξ SP and μ P with lξ) n and lμ) n. Then we have K ξμ lξ) δξ) [ t) = 2 2 e μ ] α +1 e α ) α +1 te α ) chvξ). Proof It follows from 2.3) that K λμ t) = [ e μ] α +1 e α ) α +1 te α ) chlλ)
15 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: for λ P with lλ) n. Hence by Proposition 2.5 and Lemma 3.2 one deduces that Kξμ t) = 2 lξ) g ξλ [e μ] α +1 e α ) λ n α +1 te α ) chlλ) = [ e μ] α +1 e α ) α +1 te α ) λ P,lλ) n = 2 lξ) δξ) [ 2 e μ ] α +1 e α ) α +1 te α ) chvξ). 2 lξ) g ξλ chlλ) 4 Spin Hall Littlewood and spin Macdonald polynomials In this section, we introduce the spin Hall Littlewood polynomials and establish their main properties. We also formulate the q,t-generalizations of spin Kostka polynomials and Macdonald polynomials. 4.1 A commutative diagram Recall a homomorphism ϕ [13, III, Sect. 8, Example 10] defined by ϕ : Λ Γ, { 2pr, for r odd, ϕp r ) = 0, otherwise, 4.1) where p r denotes the rth power sum symmetric function. Denote Ht)= h n t n = n 0 i Noting that Qt) from 2.5) can be rewritten as Qt) = exp 2 we obtain Hence, we have ϕh n ) = q n for all n, and For each n 0, we define a functor 1 1 x i t = exp r 1 r 1,r odd p r t r r ), p r t r r ). ϕ Ht) ) = Qt). 4.2) ϕh μ ) = q μ, μ P. 4.3) Φ n : S n -mod H n -smod
16 132 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: by sending M to ind H n M. Such a sequence of functors {Φ n } induces a Z-linear map on the Grothendieck group level: Φ : R R, by letting Φ[M]) =[Φ n M)] for M S n -mod. We shall show that the map Φ : R R or the sequence {Φ n }) is a categorification of ϕ : Λ Γ. Recall that R carries a natural Hopf algebra structure with multiplication given by induction and comultiplication given by restriction [23]. In the same fashion, we can define a Hopf algebra structure on R by induction and restriction. On the other hand, Λ Q = Q[p1,p 2,p 3,...] is naturally a Hopf algebra, where each p r is a primitive element, and Γ Q = Q[p1,p 3,p 5,...] is naturally a Hopf subalgebra of Λ Q.The characteristic map ch : R Q Λ Q is an isomorphism of Hopf algebras cf. [23]). A similar argument easily leads to the following. Lemma 4.1 The map ch : R Q Γ Q is an isomorphism of Hopf algebras. Proposition 4.2 The map Φ : R Q R Q is a homomorphism of Hopf algebras. Moreover, we have the following commutative diagram of Hopf algebras: Proof Using 3.2) and 4.3)wehave On the other hand, it follows by 3.5) that ϕ ch ind CS μ 1 )) = q μ. ch Φ ind CS μ 1 )) = ch ind H n CS μ 1 ) = q μ. 4.4) This establishes the commutative diagram on the level of linear maps, since R n has a basis given by the characters of the permutation modules ind CS μ 1 for μ P n. It can be verified easily that ϕ : Λ Q Γ Q is a homomorphism of Hopf algebras. Let us check that ϕ commutes with the comultiplication. ϕp r ) ) = 2p r ) = 2p r p r ) = ϕ ϕ) p r ) ), for odd r. ϕp r ) ) = 0 = ϕ ϕ) p r ) ), for even r. Since both ch and ch are isomorphisms of Hopf algebras, it follows from the commutativity of 4.4) that Φ : R Q R Q is a homomorphism of Hopf algebras.
17 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: Spin Hall Littlewood functions Denote by H μ x; t) the basis of Λ dual to the Hall Littlwood functions P μ x; t) with respect to the standard inner product, ) on Λ such that Schur functions form an orthonormal basis. It follows by the Cauchy identity and 2.1) that 1 = 1 x i y j μ i,j H μ x; t)p μ y; t), 4.5) H μ x; t)= λ P K λμ t)s λ x). 4.6) Recall that in λ-ring formalism, the symmetric functions in x1 t) are defined in terms of p k 1 t)x) = 1 t k )p k x). Actually, the symmetric functions P μ x; t) and H μ x; t) are related to each other as cf. [3]) P μ x; t)= 1 b μ t) H ) μ 1 t)x; t, 4.7) where b μ t) = mi μ) i 1 k=1 1 tk ) and m i μ) denotes the number of times i occurs as a part of μ. Definition 4.3 Define the spin Hall Littlewood function Hμ x; t) for μ P by H μ x; t)= 2 lξ) Kξμ t)q ξ x). 4.8) ξ SP For λ P,letS λ Γ be the determinant cf. [13, III, Sect. 8, 7a)]) S λ = detq λi i+j ). It follows by the Jacobi Trudi identity for s λ and 4.3) that ϕs λ ) = S λ. 4.9) Applying ϕ to the Cauchy identity 1 i,j 1 x i y j = λ P s λx)s λ y) and using 4.2) with t = y i, we obtain i,j x i y j = S λ x)s λ y). 4.10) 1 x i y j λ P It follows by the commutative diagram 4.4) and 4.9) that S λ x) = chc n S λ ).This recovers and provides a representation theoretic context for [13, III, Sect. 8, 7c)], as the Clifford algebra C n is isomorphic to the exterior algebra C n ) as S n -modules.
18 134 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: Theorem 4.4 The spin Hall Littlewood functions Hμ x; t) for μ P satisfy the following properties: 1) ϕh μ x; t))= Hμ x; t). 2) Hμ x; 1) = q μx). 3) Hμ x; 0) = S μx). { 4) Hμ x; 1) = Qμ x), if μ SP, 0, otherwise. 5) Hμ x; t) Z[t] Z Γ, μ P; {Hξ x; t) ξ SP} forms a basis of Z[t] Z Γ. 6) 1+x i y j i,j 1 x i y j = μ P H μ x; t)p μy; t). Proof By 4.10) and the Cauchy identity for Schur Q-functions, we have 2 lξ) Q ξ x)q ξ y) = S λ x)s λ y). ξ SP λ P Substituting with Q ξ y) = λ P 2lξ) g ξλ s λ y) in the above equation, we obtain S λ x) = g ξλ Q ξ x). 4.11) ξ SP Part 1) can now be proved using 4.6), 4.9), 4.11), Proposition 2.5, and 4.8): ϕ H μ x; t) ) = λ P K λμ t)s λ x) = ξ SP,λ P g ξλ K λμ t)q ξ x) = 2 lξ) Kξμ t)q ξ x) ξ SP = Hμ x; t). Since H μ x; 0) = s μ and H μ x; 1) = h μ, 2) and 3) follow from 4.3), 4.9), and 1). Also, 4) follows by Theorem A4) and the definition of Hμ x; t). We have 2 lξ) Kξμ t) Z[t] by Theorem A3) and Q ξ x) Γ, and hence by 4.8), Hμ x; t) Z[t] Z Γ.By4.8) and Theorem A1)3), the transition matrix between {Hξ x; t) ξ SP} and {Q ξ x) ξ SP} is unital upper triangular with entries in Z[t]. Therefore, {Hξ x; t) ξ SP} forms a basis of Z[t] Z Γ since so does {Q ξ x) ξ SP}. This proves 5). 6) follows by applying the map ϕ to both sides of 4.5) inx variables and using 4.2) and 1).
19 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: Spin Macdonald polynomials and spin q,t-kostka polynomials Denote by H λ x; q,t) the normalized Macdonald polynomials, which is related to the Macdonald integral form J λ x; q,t) by H λ x; q,t) = J x/1 t); q,t ) in λ-ring notation cf. [4, 13]). Inspired by Theorem 4.41), we make the following. Definition 4.5 The spin Macdonald polynomials Hμ x; q,t) for μ P is given by H μ H μ x; q,t) = ϕ H μ x; q,t) ). The spin q,t-kostka polynomials Kξμ q, t) for ξ SP and μ P are given by x; q,t) = 2 lξ) Kξμ q, t)q ξ x). ξ SP Compare with 4.6) for Kostka polynomials and 4.8) for spin Kostka polynomials. The classical q,t-kostka polynomial K λμ q, t) can be characterized as follows: H μ x; q,t) = λ P K λμ q, t)s λ x). 4.12) According to Garsia and Haiman [4, 6], there is a Z + Z + -graded regular representation R μ of S n, parameterized by μ P n : such that i,j 0 R μ = i,j 0 R i,j μ, dim Hom Sn S λ,rμ i,j ) q j t i = K λμ q,t 1 ) t nμ). 4.13) In particular, this established a conjecture of Macdonald [13] that K λμ q, t) Z + [q,t]. For μ P n we consider the doubly graded H n -module Φ n R μ ) = C n R μ, and set Cξμ q, t) := i,j 0 dim Hom Hn D ξ, C n Rμ i,j ) q j t i. Proposition 4.6 The following identities hold for ξ SP and μ P: K ξμ q, t) = λ P b ξλ K λμ q, t), 4.14) Cξμ lξ) δξ) q, t) = 2 2 Kξμ q,t 1 ) t nμ). 4.15)
20 136 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: Proof The identity 4.14) follows by applying the map ϕ to 4.12) and using 4.9) and 4.11). Suppose ξ SP n and μ P n. We compute by Lemma 3.1 and 4.13) that Cξμ q, t) = q j t i dim Hom Hn D ξ, ind H n R i,j ) μ i,j 0 = q,t 1 ) t nμ) dim Hom Hn D ξ, ind H n S λ) λ P n K λμ = 2 lξ) δξ) 2 b ξλ K λμ q,t 1 ) t nμ). λ P n The identity 4.15) follows from this and 4.14). Note that Kξμ 0,t)= K ξμ t), and C lξ) δξ) ξμ 1, 1) = 2 2 Kξμ 1, 1) is the degree of D ξ. We leave it to the reader to formulate further properties of spin Macdonald polynomials and spin q,t-kostka polynomials. 4.4 Discussions and open questions Let {Ĥ ξ x; t) ξ SP} be the basis dual to {Hξ x; t) ξ SP} in Γ with respect to the inner product Q ξ,q ζ =2 lξ) δ ξζ for ξ,ζ SP, or equivalently, 1 + x i y j = Hξ 1 x i y x; t)ĥ ξ y; t). 4.16) j i,j i,j ξ SP It follows that 1 + x i y j 1 tx i y j = 1 x i y j 1 + tx i y j ξ SP H ξ x1 t); t )Ĥξ y; t) = Hξ x; t)ĥ ) ξ y1 t); t. ξ SP However, the spin analogue of the relation 4.7), i.e., a similar relation for Hξ x; t) and its dual basis Ĥ ξ x; t) does not hold, as can be shown by examples for n = 3. In the case ξ = n),wehave H n) 1 t)x; t ) = qn 1 t)x ) = 1) n g n x; t), where g n x; t) is defined by r 0 g r x; t)u r = i 1 ux i 1 + ux i 1 + tux i 1 tux i. Curiously the function g n x; t) also appears in our calculation of characters of Hecke Clifford algebra in [22].
21 J Algebr Comb 2013) 37: According to Lascoux and Schützenberger [11], the Kostka polynomial K λμ t) has an interpretation in terms of the charge of semistandard tableaux of shape λ and weight μ. This naturally leads to the following. Question 4.7 Let ξ SP,μ P with ξ = μ. Find a statistics spin charge on marked shifted tableaux, denoted by scht ), such that K ξμ t) = T tscht ) where the summation is taken over all marked shifted ξ-tableaux T of weight μ. Thespin charge is expected to be independent of the marks on the diagonal of a shifted tableau to account for the factor 2 lξ) for K ξμ t). A possible approach toward spin charge would be using the quantum affine queer algebra introduced by Chen and Guay [2]. Example 4.8 The positive integer polynomials 2 lξ) Kξμ t) for n = 3, 4 are listed in matrix form as follows. n = 3) ξ\μ 3) 2, 1) 1 3 ) 3) 1 1+ t 1 + t + t 2 + t 3. 2, 1) 0 1 t + t 2 n = 4) ξ\μ 4) 3, 1) 2, 2) 2, 1, 1) 1 4 ) 4) 1 1+ t t + t t + t 2 + t t + t 2 + 2t 3 + t 4 + t 5 + t 6. 3, 1) t 1 + 2t + t 2 t + 2t 2 + 2t 3 + 2t 4 + t 5 These examples show that the spin Kostka polynomials given in this paper and those by Tudose and Zabrocki [20] using vertex operators are not the same. Question 4.9 Does there exist a vertex operator interpretation for our version of spin Hall Littlewood polynomials? Recall that the Kostka polynomial K λμ t) for λ,μ P is symmetric in the sense that K λμ t) = t m λμ K λμ t 1 ) for some m λμ Z. Example 4.8 seems to indicate such a symmetry property for the spin Kostka polynomials as well, as Bruce Sagan suggested to us. Question 4.10 Does there exist m ξμ Z so that the spin Koskta polynomial K ξμ t) for ξ SP,μ P satisfies K ξμ t) = tm ξμk ξμ t 1 )? Finally, the spin q,t-analogue deserves to be further studied.
