Nonnegativity conjecture for Schubert expansions of transparent diagrams
Nonnegativity conjecture for Schubert expansions of transparent diagrams
Let be a diagram, and write its flagged Schur character in the Schubert-polynomial basis as
where the sum is over all permutations and are integers. A diagram is called transparent when it has the transparency property defined in the paper. Nonnegativity conjecture. When is transparent, the coefficients are nonnegative:
for every permutation . This conjecture predicts Schubert positivity for the characters of flagged Schur modules associated with transparent diagrams; the source motivates it through computer experimentation, while noting that related classes such as translucent and percentage-avoiding diagrams can have negative coefficients.
