An algorithmic Littlewood-Richardson rule

Abstract

We introduce a Littlewood-Richardson rule based on an algorithmic deformation of skew Young diagrams and present a bijection with the classical rule. The result is a direct combinatorial interpretation and proof of the geometric rule presented by Coskun (2000). We also present a corollary regarding the Specht modules of the intermediate diagrams. © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2010.
