New description:
This patch restructures the implementation of symmetric functions in sage
The new implementation makes use of multiple realizations and the category
framework. The new access to symmetric functions is via
{{{
sage: Sym = SymmetricFunctions(QQ)
}}}
Further new features that are implemented:
- The ring of symmetric functions is now endowed with a Hopf algebra
structure.
The coproduct and antipode are implemented (which were missing before).
- A tutorial on how to use symmetric functions in sage is included at the
beginning of sf.py which is also accessible via
{{{
sage: SymmetricFunctions??
}}}
- Symmetric functions should now work a lot better with respect to
specializing parameters like `q` and `t` for Hall-Littlewood, Jack
and Macdonald symmetric functions. Certain functionalities before
this change were broken or not possible.
- Documentation was added to LLT polynomials (which had very sparse
documentation
previously).
- The `k`-bounded subspace of the ring of symmetric function was
implemented.
The `k`-Schur functions now live in the `k`-bounded subspace rather than
in the ring of symmetric functions as before.
This patch gained tremendously by the tutorial on symmetric functions
written
by Jason Bandlow and Nicolas Thiery, a draft on the `k`-bounded subspace
by
Jason Bandlow, and code multiple realizations written by Franco Saliola.
