Abstract
The question of when two skew Young diagrams produce the same
skew Schur function has been well studied. We investigate the same
question in the case of stable Grothendieck polynomials, which are the
-theoretic
analogues of the Schur functions. We prove a necessary condition for two skew shapes
to give rise to the same dual stable Grothendieck polynomial. We also provide a
necessary and sufficient condition in the case where the two skew shapes are
ribbons.
