ART seminar

This will be a broad seminar with a wide variety of topics. EVERYONE IS WELCOME. See the web page for more information.

Research

My research is in Combinatorial representation theory. H. Barcelo and I have written a survey article about this field, its main questions and the main results:

Combinatorial representation theory, (with H. Barcelo), which appeared in the special volume in conjunction with the special year 1996-1997 in Combinatorics at MSRI in Berkeley: New perspectives in algebraic combinatorics (Berkeley, CA, 1996--97), 23--90, Math. Sci. Res. Inst. Publ., 38 , Cambridge Univ. Press, Cambridge, 1999.

Some recent projects

1. Our students have recently completed a paper which gives an inspring entrée to the world of Macdonald polynomials via usual, quantum and elliptic hook formulas.
