Weigandt. We then make a conjecture relating the principal specialization of Schubert polynomials to pattern containment. Finally, we characterize permutations $w$ whose RC-graphs are connected by simple ladder moves via pattern avoidance.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-10-20T01:43:02.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "schubert polynomial", "principal specialization", "pattern containment", "simple ladder moves", "conjecture" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
