Abstract

We give a new representation theoretic interpretation of the ring of quasi-symmetric functions. This is obtained by showing that the super analogue of Gessel's fundamental quasi-symmetric function can be realized as the character of a connected crystal for the Lie superalgebra gl n | n associated to its non-standard Borel subalgebra with a maximal number of odd isotropic simple roots. We also present an algebraic characterization of these super quasi-symmetric functions.
