Harmonic Bases for Generalized Coinvariant Algebras

Abstract. Let k ≤ n be nonnegative integers and let λ be a partition of k. S. Griffin recently introduced a quotient Rn,λ of the polynomial ring Q[x1, ..., xn] in n variables which simultaneously generalizes the Delta Conjecture coinvariant rings of Haglund-Rhoades-Shimozono and the cohomology rings of Springer fibers studied by Tanisaki and Garsia-Procesi. We describe the space Vn,λ of harmonics attached to Rn,λ and produce a harmonic basis of Rn,λ indexed by certain ordered set partitions OPn,λ. Our description of Vn,λ involves injective tableaux and Vandermonde determinants and combinatorics of our harmonic basis is governed by a new extension of the Lehmer code of a permutation to OPn,λ.
