Abstract: We study the open version of the su$(m|n)$ supersymmetric Haldane-Shastry spin chain associated to the $B{C}_N$ extended root system. We first evaluate the model's partition function by modding out the dynamical degrees of freedom of the su$(m|n)$ supersymmetric spin Sutherland model of $B{C}_N$ type, whose spectrum we fully determine. We then construct a generalized partition function depending polynomially on two sets of variables, which yields the standard one when evaluated at a suitable point. We show that this generalized partition function can be written in terms of two variants of the classical skew super Schur polynomials, which admit a combinatorial definition in terms of a new type of skew Young tableaux and border strips (or, equivalently, extended motifs). In this way we derive a remarkable description of the spectrum in terms of this new class of extended motifs, reminiscent of the analogous one for the closed Haldane-Shastry chain. We provide several concretes examples of this description, and in particular study in detail the su$(1|1)$ model finding an analytic expression for its Helmholtz free energy in the thermodynamic limit.
