Abstract

The Schubert polynomials lift the Schur basis of symmetric polynomials into a basis for Z[x1; x2; : : :]. We suggest the prism tableau model for these polynomials. A novel aspect of this alternative to earlier results is that it directly invokes semistandard tableaux; it does so as part of a colored tableau amalgam. In the Grassmannian case, a prism tableau with colors ignored is a semistandard Young tableau. Our arguments are developed from the Gr¨obner geometry of matrix Schubert varieties.

Highlights

  • We wish to put forward another solution – a novel aspect of which is that it directly invokes semistandard tableaux. Both the statement and proof of our alternative model build upon ideas about the Grobner geometry of matrix Schubert varieties Xw

  • To prove the main theorem, we show there is a bijection between the set of prism tableau for w and Multi(w)

  • We identify each P ∈ MinPlus(Xw) with the prism tableau that corresponds to the minimum element of Multi(P) and show this is a bijection

Summary

Overview

The solutions [BiJoSt93, BeBi93, FoSt94, FoKi96] have been the foundation for a vast literature at the confluence of combinatorics, representation theory and combinatorial algebraic geometry. We wish to put forward another solution – a novel aspect of which is that it directly invokes semistandard tableaux. Both the statement and proof of our alternative model build upon ideas about the Grobner geometry of matrix Schubert varieties Xw. We use the Grobner degeneration of Xw and the interpretation of Sw as mutidegrees of Xw [KnMi05]. Is to establish the geometric naturality of the combinatorics of [BiJoSt93, BeBi93, FoKi96].
