D.5.2.50 SchurS

Usage:

SchurS(I, S); I list of integers representing a partition, S list of polynomials

Return:

poly

Purpose:

computes the Schur polynomial in the Segre classes S (of the dual vector bundle), i.e., in the complete homogeneous symmetric polynomials, with respect to the partition I

Note:

if S are the Segre classes of the tautological bundle on a grassmanian, this gives the cohomology class of a Schubert cycle

list I=1,2,4;
list S=s(1..6);
print( SchurS(I, S) );
// compare this with the Schur polynomial computed using Chern classes
