We also give an intriguing log-concavity property of Schur functions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2005-12-09T23:30:11.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05E05" ], "keywords": [ "schur positivity", "schur log-concavity", "special case", "okounkovs conjecture", "schur functions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2005math......2446L" } } }
