Charge and Kostka polynomials
Student-Run Discrete Math Seminar| Speaker: | Jeff Ferreira, UC Davis |
| Location: | 2112 MSB |
| Start time: | Thu, Feb 28 2008, 3:10PM |
In this talk I will define the Kostka polynomials and the statistic charge on tableaux. I will also outline a proof which uses charge that shows the Kostka polynomials have nonnegative coefficients.
