Abstract: The Schur polynomials $s_{lambda}$ are essential in understanding the representation theory of the general linear group. They also describe the cohomology ring of the Grassmannians. For $ho=(n,n-1,dots,1)$ a staircase shape and $musubseteqho$ a subpartition, the Stembridge equality states that $s_{ho/mu}=s_{ho/m{u}^T}$. This equality provides information about the symmetry of the cohomology ring. The stable Grothendieck polynomials $G_{lambda}$, and the dual stable Grothendieck polynomials $g_{lambda}$, developed by Buch, Lam, and Pylyavskyy, are variants of the Schur polynomials and describe the $K$-theory of the Grassmannians. Using the Hopf algebra structure of the ring of symmetric functions and a generalized Littlewood-Richardson rule, we prove that $G_{ho/mu}=G_{ho/m{u}^T}$ and $g_{ho/mu}=g_{ho/m{u}^T}$, the analogues of the Stembridge equality for the skew stable and skew dual stable Grothendieck polynomials.
