Products of characters of the symmetric group (1709.08098v1)

Abstract: In a paper, the authors introduced a new basis of the ring of symmetric functions which evaluate to the irreducible characters of the symmetric group at roots of unity. The structure coefficients for this new basis are the stable Kronecker coefficients. In this paper we give combinatorial descriptions for several products that have as consequences several versions of the Pieri rule for this new basis of symmetric functions. In addition, we give several applications of the products studied in this paper.
