We study two operators $\\xi$ and $\\nabla$ of degree $-1$, which satisfy Leibniz rule. Furthermore, we show that all other such operators are linear combinations of $\\xi$ and $\\nabla$. For the case of Schur functions, these two operators fully determine the product of Schur functions, i.e., it is possible to define Littlewood-Richardson coefficients only from $\\xi$ and $\\nabla$. This new point of view on Schur functions gives us an elementary proof of The Giambelli identity and Jacobi-Trudi identities. For the case of Schubert polynomials, we construct a bigger class of decreasing operators as expressions in terms of $\\xi$ and $\\nabla$, which are indexed by Young diagrams. Surprisingly, these operators are related to Stanley symmetric functions. In particular, we extend bosonic operators from Schur to Schubert polynomials.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-05-17T18:08:55.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "differential operators", "schur functions", "satisfy leibniz rule", "extend bosonic operators", "define littlewood-richardson coefficients" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
