Abstract: Let

R

be a commutative ring and

n g e q 1

and

p g e q 0

two integers. Let

h_{k, i}

be an element of

R

for all

k i n m a t h b b Z

and

i i n [n]

. For any

a l p h a i n m a t h b b Z^{n}

, we define [ t_{alpha}:=det�egin{pmatrix} h_{alpha_1+1, 1} & h_{alpha_1+2, 1} & cdots & h_{alpha_1+n, 1}\ h_{alpha_2+1, 2} & h_{alpha_2+2, 2} & cdots & h_{alpha_2+n, 2}\ vdots & vdots & ddots & vdots\ h_{alpha_n+1, n} & h_{alpha_n+2, n} & cdots & h_{alpha_n+n, n} end{pmatrix} in R ] (where

a l p h a_{i}

denotes the

i

-th entry of

a l p h a

). Then, we have the identity [ sum_{substack{�etain{0,1,2,ldots}^n ;\ left|�eta ight|=p}}t_{alpha+�eta} =det �egin{pmatrix} h_{alpha_1+1, 1} & h_{alpha_1+2, 1} & cdots & h_{alpha_1+(n-1), 1} & h_{alpha_1+(n+p), 1}\ h_{alpha_2+1, 2} & h_{alpha_2+2, 2} & cdots & h_{alpha_2+(n-1), 2} & h_{alpha_2+(n+p), 2}\ vdots & vdots & ddots & vdots & vdots\ h_{alpha_n+1, n} & h_{alpha_n+2, n} & cdots & h_{alpha_n+(n-1), n} & h_{alpha_n+(n+p), n} end{pmatrix} ] (where

denotes the entrywise sum of the tuples

a l p h a

and

). Furthermore, if

p l e q n

, then [ sum_{substack{�etainleft{ 0,1 ight} ^n ;\left| �eta ight| =p}}t_{alpha+�eta}=det �egin{pmatrix} h_{alpha_1+xi_1 , 1} & h_{alpha_1+xi_2 , 1} & cdots & h_{alpha_1+xi_n , 1}\ h_{alpha_2+xi_1 , 2} & h_{alpha_2+xi_2 , 2} & cdots & h_{alpha_2+xi_n , 2}\ vdots & vdots & ddots & vdots\ h_{alpha_n+xi_1 , n} & h_{alpha_n+xi_2 , n} & cdots & h_{alpha_n+xi_n , n} end{pmatrix} , ] where

x i = (1, 2, l d o t s, n - p, n - p + 2, n - p + 3, l d o t s, n + 1)

. We prove these two identities (in a slightly more general setting, where

R

is not assumed commutative) and use them to derive some variants of the Pieri rule found in the literature.
