A tableau formula for eta polynomials (Q2448336)

In this paper, the author proves a tableau formula for the eta polynomials of \textit{A. S. Buch} et al. [``A Giambelli formula for even orthogonal Grassmannians'', Preprint, \url{arXiv:1109.6669}] and the Stanley symmetric functions which correspond to Grassmannian elements of the Weyl group \(\widetilde{W}_n\) of type \(D_n\). The formula for the eta polynomial \(H_\lambda(x,y)\) is written as a sum of monomials over certain fillings of the Young diagram of \(\lambda\) called typed \(k^\prime\)-bitableaux. The proof is the result of various reduction formulas which are then combined to obtain a main tableau formula for \(H_\lambda(x , y)\). In the last section, the author relates this theory to the type D Schubert polynomials and Stanley symmetric functions in [\textit{S. Billey} and \textit{M. Haiman}, J. Am. Math. Soc. 8, No. 2, 443--482 (1995; Zbl 0832.05098); \textit{T. K. Lam}, B and D analogues of stable Schubert polynomials and related insertion algorithms. Cambridge, MA: Massachusetts Institute of Technology (PhD Thesis) (1995)], and study the skew elements of \(\widetilde{W}_{n+1}\).
