On certain spaces of lattice diagram determinants

cells from a given partition, these cells being in the ``shadow of a given cell $(i, j)$ of the Ferrers diagram. We obtain an upper bound for the dimension of the resulting space $M_{i, j}^{k} (X, Y)$ , that we conjecture to be optimal. These upper bounds allow us to construct explicit bases for the subspace $M_{i, j}^{k} (X)$ consisting of elements of 0 $Y$ -degree.

Review text

The paper is concerned with the linear span $M_L$ of all derivatives of certain lattice diagram determinants $\Delta_L$. A (general) lattice diagram is a finite subset $L=\{(p_1,q_1),\dots,(p_n,q_n)\}$ of $\mathbb{N}\times \mathbb{N}$, and its corresponding determinant $\Delta_L$ is the bihomogeneous polynomial $\det(x_i^{p_j}y_i^{q_j})_{i,j=1}^n$. Here, the author considers lattice diagrams which are obtained from Ferrers diagrams $\mu$ by removing $k$ cells from the ``shadow of some fixed cell $(i,j)$, where the shadow of cell $(i,j)$ consists of all the cells $(i^\prime,j')$ in the Ferrers diagram with $i^\prime\geq i$ and $j^\prime\geq j$. It is shown that the dimension of the sum of the spaces $M_L$, where $L$ is any diagram obtained by removing $k$ cells from the shadow of some fixed cell $(i,j)$, is at most ${s\choose k}n!$, where $n+k$ is the number of all cells in the Ferrers diagram $\mu$, and where $s$ is the number of all cells in the shadow of cell $(i,j)$. This result is related to the Garsia--Haiman conjecture (also known as $n!$ conjecture).
