The contributions of Stanley to the fabric of symmetric and quasisymmetric functions

Sara C. Billey, Peter R. W. McNamara

Published 2015-05-05Version 1

We weave together a tale of two rings, SYM and QSYM, following one gold thread spun by Richard Stanley. The lesson we learn from this tale is that "Combinatorial objects like to be counted by quasisymmetric functions."

Comments: 22 pages, 3 figures. Written for the 70th-birthday volume honoring Richard Stanley
