Abstract: The quantum cohomology of Grassmannians exhibits two symmetries related to the quantum product, namely a Bbb {Z}/n action and an involution related to complex conjugation. We construct a new ring by dividing out these symmetries in an ideal theoretic way and analyze its structure, which is shown to control the sum of all coefficients appearing in the product of cohomology classes. We derive a combinatorial formula for the sum of all Littlewood-Richardson coefficients appearing in the expansion of a product of two Schur polynomials.
