Positivity of Schubert coefficients

From MaRDI portal





Schubert coefficients are structure constants describingmultiplication of Schubert polynomials. Deciding positivity of Schubert coefficients is a major open problem in Algebraic Combinatorics. The main goal of this study is to give a combinatorial interpretation for Schubert coefficients, arguably the most important open problem in Schubert calculus. In [\textit{I. Pak} and \textit{C. Robichaux}, STOC 2025, 1118--1129 (2025; \url{doi:10.1145/3717823.3718269})], first the authors analyze the Schubert positivity problem, traditionally a stepping stone towards a combinatorial interpretation and a major open problem in its own right. The main result in that paper is an upper bound for the complexity class of the Schubert positivity problem.\N\NIn this paper they show that the Schubert positivity problem has a positive rule assuming two well known hypotheses.
