In this paper, by applying the decision theorem of the Schur-power convex function, the Schur-power convexity of a class of complete symmetric functions are studied. As applications, some new inequalities are established.

AbstractA homogeneous real polynomial p is hyperbolic with respect to a given vector d if the univariate polynomial t ⟼ p(x − td) has all real roots for all vectors x. Motivated by partial differential equations, Gårding proved in 1951 that the largest such root is a convex function of x, and showed various ways of constructing new hyperbolic polynomials. We present a powerful new such construction, and use it to generalize Gårding’s result to arbitrary symmetric functions of the roots. Many classical and recent inequalities follow easily. We develop various convex-analytic tools for such symmetric functions, of interest in interior-point methods for optimization problems over related cones.

International audience We construct a poset from a simple acyclic digraph together with a valuation on its vertices, and we compute the values of its Möbius function. We show that the weak order on Coxeter groups $A$<sub>$n-1$</sub>, $B$<sub>$n$</sub>, $Ã$<sub>$n$</sub>, and the flag weak order on the wreath product &#8484;<sub>$r$</sub> &#8768; $S$<sub>$n$</sub> introduced by Adin, Brenti and Roichman (2012), are special instances of our construction. We conclude by briefly explaining how to use our work to define quasi-symmetric functions, with a special emphasis on the $A$<sub>$n-1$</sub> case, in which case we obtain the classical Stanley symmetric function. On construit une famille d’ensembles ordonnés à partir d’un graphe orienté, simple et acyclique munit d’une valuation sur ses sommets, puis on calcule les valeurs de leur fonction de Möbius respective. On montre que l’ordre faible sur les groupes de Coxeter $A$<sub>$n-1$</sub>, $B$<sub>$n$</sub>, $Ã$<sub>$n$</sub>, ainsi qu’une variante de l’ordre faible sur les produits en couronne &#8484;<sub>$r$</sub> &#8768; $S$<sub>$n$</sub> introduit par Adin, Brenti et Roichman (2012), sont des cas particuliers de cette construction. On conclura en expliquant brièvement comment ce travail peut-être utilisé pour définir des fonction quasi-symétriques, en insistant sur l’exemple de l’ordre faible sur $A$<sub>$n-1$</sub> où l’on obtient les séries de Stanley classiques.

There have been many different definitions of fractional calculus presented in the literature, especially in recent years. These definitions can be classified into groups with similar properties. An important direction of research has involved proving inequalities for fractional integrals of particular types of functions, such as Hermite–Hadamard–Fejer (HHF) inequalities and related results. Here we consider some HHF fractional integral inequalities and related results for a class of fractional operators (namely, the weighted fractional operators), which apply to function of convex type with respect to an increasing function involving a positive weighted symmetric function. We can conclude that all derived inequalities in our study generalize numerous well-known inequalities involving both classical and Riemann–Liouville fractional integral inequalities.

In this study, firstly we introduce a new concept called “strongly r-convex function.” After that we establish Hermite-Hadamard-like inequalities for this class of functions. Moreover, by using an integral identity together with some well known integral inequalities, we establish several new inequalities for n-times differentiable strongly r-convex functions. In special cases, the results obtained coincide with the well-known results in the literature.

This work lies across three areas of investigation that are by themselves of independent interest. A problem that arose in quantum computing led us to a link that tied these areas together. This link led to the calculation of some Kronecker coefficients by computing constant terms and conversely the computations of certain constant terms by computing Kronecker coefficients by symmetric function methods. This led to results as well as methods for solving numerical problems in each of these separate areas.

In (l) Hunter proved that the complete symmetric functions of even order are positive definite by obtaining the inequalitywhere ht denotes the complete symmetric function of order t. In this note we show that the inequality can be strengthened, which, in turn, enables theorem 2 of (l) to be sharpened. We also obtain a special case of an inequality conjectured by McLeod(2).

The chromatic quasisymmetric function of a graph was introduced by Shareshian and Wachs as a refinement of Stanley's chromatic symmetric function. An explicit combinatorial formula, conjectured by Shareshian and Wachs, expressing the chromatic quasisymmetric function of the incomparability graph of a natural unit interval order in terms of power sum symmetric functions, is proven. The proof uses a formula of Roichman for the irreducible characters of the symmetric group.

For every finite graded poset $P$ with $\hat{0}$ and $\hat{1}$ we associate a certain formal power series $F_P(x) = F_P(x_1,x_2,\dots)$ which encodes the flag $f$-vector (or flag $h$-vector) of $P$. A relative version $F_{P/\Gamma}$ is also defined, where $\Gamma$ is a subcomplex of the order complex of $P$. We are interested in the situation where $F_P$ or $F_{P/\Gamma}$ is a symmetric function of $x_1,x_2,\dots$. When $F_P$ or $F_{P/\Gamma}$ is symmetric we consider its expansion in terms of various symmetric function bases, especially the Schur functions. For a class of lattices called $q$-primary lattices the Schur function coefficients are just values of Kostka polynomials at the prime power $q$, thus giving in effect a simple new definition of Kostka polynomials in terms of symmetric functions. We extend the theory of lexicographically shellable posets to the relative case in order to show that some examples $(P,\Gamma)$ are relative Cohen-Macaulay complexes. Some connections with the representation theory of the symmetric group and its Hecke algebra are also discussed.
