In [[algebra]] and in particular in [[algebraic combinatorics]], a '''quasisymmetric function''' is any element in the '''ring of quasisymmetric functions''' which is in turn a subring of the [[formal power series]] ring with a countable number of variables. This ring generalizes  the [[ring of symmetric functions]]. This ring can be realized as a specific limit of the [[ring (mathematics)|rings]] of quasisymmetric polynomials in ''n'' variables, as ''n'' goes to infinity. This ring serves as universal structure in which relations between quasisymmetric polynomials can be expressed in a way independent of the number ''n'' of variables (but its elements are neither polynomials nor functions).
 
== Definitions ==
 
The '''ring of quasisymmetric functions''', denoted QSym, can be defined over any [[commutative ring]] ''R'' such as the  [[integers]].  
Quasisymmetric
functions are [[formal power series|power series]] of bounded degree in variables <math>x_1,x_2,x_3, \dots </math> with coefficients in ''R'', which are shift invariant in the sense that the coefficient of  the monomial <math>x_1^{\alpha_1}x_2^{\alpha_2}  \cdots x_k^{\alpha_k}</math> is equal to the coefficient of the monomial <math>x_{i_1}^{\alpha_1} x_{i_2}^{\alpha_2}\cdots x_{i_k}^{\alpha_k}</math> for any strictly increasing sequence of positive integers
<math>i_1< i_2< \cdots < i_k</math> indexing the variables and any positive integer sequence <math>(\alpha_1, \alpha_2,\ldots,\alpha_k)</math> of exponents.<ref name="EC2">
[[Richard P. Stanley|Stanley, Richard P.]] ''Enumerative Combinatorics'', Vol. 2, Cambridge University Press, 1999. ISBN 0-521-56069-1 (hardback) ISBN 0-521-78987-7 (paperback).</ref>
Much of the study of quasisymmetric functions is based on that of [[symmetric functions]].
 
A quasisymmetric function in finitely many variables is a ''quasisymmetric [[polynomial]]''.
Both symmetric and quasisymmetric polynomials may be characterized in terms of [[group actions|actions]] of the [[symmetric group]] <math>S_n^{}</math>
on a [[polynomial ring]] in <math>n^{}</math> variables <math>x_1^{},\dots, x_n</math>.  
One such action of <math>S_n</math> permutes variables,
changing a polynomial <math>p(x_1^{},\dots,x_n)</math> by iteratively swapping pairs <math>(x_i^{}, x_{i+1})</math>
of variables having consecutive indices.
Those polynomials unchanged by all such swaps
form the subring of symmetric polynomials.
A second action of <math>S_n</math> conditionally permutes variables,
changing a polynomial <math>p(x_1,\ldots,x_n)</math>
by swapping pairs <math>(x_i^{}, x_{i+1})</math> of variables
''except'' in monomials containing both variables.
Those polynomials unchanged by all such conditional swaps form
the subring of quasisymmetric polynomials. One quasisymmetric function in four variables is the polynomial
 
: <math> x_1^2 x_2 x_3 + x_1^2 x_2 x_4 + x_1^2 x_3 x_4 + x_2^2 x_3 x_4. \, </math>
 
The simplest symmetric function containing all of these monomials is
 
: <math>
\begin{align}
x_1^2 x_2 x_3 + x_1^2 x_2 x_4 + x_1^2 x_3 x_4 + x_2^2 x_3 x_4
+ x_1 x_2^2 x_3 + x_1 x_2^2 x_4 + x_1 x_3^2 x_4 + x_2 x_3^2 x_4 \\
{} + x_1 x_2 x_3^2 + x_1 x_2 x_4^2 + x_1 x_3 x_4^2 + x_2 x_3 x_4^2. \,
\end{align}
</math>
 
== Important bases ==
 
QSym is a [[graded algebra|graded]] ''R''-[[Algebra over a ring|algebra]], decomposing as
 
: <math>\mathrm{QSym} = \bigoplus_{n \ge 0} \mathrm{QSym}_n, \, </math>
 
where <math>\mathrm{QSym}_n</math> is the <math>R</math>-[[linear span|span]] of all quasisymmetric functions that are [[homogeneous polynomial|homogeneous]] of degree <math>n</math>. Two natural [[linear basis|bases]] for <math>\mathrm{QSym}_n</math> are the '''monomial basis''' <math>\{M_{\alpha} \}</math> and the '''fundamental basis''' <math>\{F_{\alpha} \}</math> indexed by [[composition (number theory)|composition]]s <math>\alpha = (\alpha_1, \alpha_2, \ldots , \alpha_k)</math> of <math>n</math>, denoted <math>\alpha \vDash n</math>.   The monomial basis consists of <math>M_0=1</math> and all formal power series
 
: <math>M_{\alpha} = \sum_{i_1 < i_2 < \cdots < i_k} x_{i_1}^{\alpha_1} x_{i_2}^{\alpha_2} \cdots x_{i_k}^{\alpha_k}. \, </math>
 
The fundamental basis consists <math>F_0=1</math> and all formal power series
 
: <math>F_\alpha = \sum_{\alpha \succeq \beta} M_\beta, \, </math>
 
where <math>\alpha \succeq \beta</math> means we can obtain <math>\alpha</math> by adding together adjacent parts of <math>\beta</math>, for example, (3,2,4,2)<math>\succeq </math> (3,1,1,1,2,1,2).  Thus, when the ring <math>R</math> is the ring of [[rational numbers]], one has
 
: <math>\mathrm{QSym}_n = \mathrm{span}_{\mathbb{Q}} \{ M_\alpha | \alpha \vDash n \} = \mathrm{span}_{\mathbb{Q}} \{ F_{\alpha} | \alpha \vDash n \}. \, </math>
 
Then one can define the algebra of [[symmetric functions]] <math>\Lambda = \Lambda _0 \oplus \Lambda _1 \oplus \cdots</math> as the subalgebra of QSym spanned by the [[monomial symmetric polynomial|monomial symmetric functions]] <math>m_0=1</math> and all formal power series <math>m_{\lambda} = \sum M_{\alpha},</math> where the sum is over all compositions <math>\alpha</math> which rearrange to the [[partition (number theory)|partition]] <math>\lambda</math>.  Moreover, we have <math>\Lambda_n = \Lambda \cap \mathrm{QSym}_n</math>.  For example, <math>F_{(1,2)}=M_{(1,2)}+M_{(1,1,1)}</math> and <math>m_{(2,1)}=M_{(2,1)}+M_{(1,2)}.</math>

== Related algebras ==
 
As a graded Hopf algebra, the dual of the ring of quasisymmetric functions is the ring of noncommutative symmetric functions.  
Every symmetric function is also a quasisymmetric function, and hence the ring of symmetric functions is a subalgebra of the ring of quasisymmetric functions.
 
The ring of quasisymmetric functions is the terminal object in category of graded Hopf algebras with a single character.<ref name="ABS">{{citation|last1=Aguiar|first1= Marcelo|last2=Bergeron|first2= Nantel|last3= Sottile|first3= Frank |title=Combinatorial Hopf algebras and generalized Dehn-Sommerville relations|journal=  Compositio Mathematica  |volume=142  |year=2006|pages= 1–30 |issue= 1|bibcode=2003math.....10016A|arxiv=math/0310016|class=math.CO|doi=10.1112/S0010437X0500165X}}</ref>

San Francisco, CA - ( SBWIRE ) - 07/sixteen/2013 - Pocket knives are helpful instruments that can be used to perform a variety of duties. Some pocket knives are of the Swiss Army selection and have multiple utensils, whereas others are simply designed for self-defense. By carefully weighing all of these categories, consumers can make certain they find the right knife for their wants. Knives can be bought in all totally different styles and sizes, from jack knives and pen knives to multipurpose Swiss Military type knives. After studying about the totally different kinds of knives, visitors can study specific products that meet their wants.

When you grew up in the 80’s you probably witnessed among the Rambo phenomenon. Rambo’s knife was a beast. I think it was one thing like 14” long and you can noticed down a tree with it. There was a gaggle of knives that got here out after this movie that had a survival package contained in the knife in order that when you unscrewed the cap on the tip of the handle (which additionally occurred to have a compass) you bought fish hooks and matches and numerous little items much like what you see folks pack inside a Survival tin The knives had been very poorly made and would fall apart quickly.

It must be no surprise that an ideal knife is created from nice metal. All the knives reviewed here use high-quality metal that will hold it’s blade over a variety of robust use. If you are desirous about what a certain steel’s properties are, use KnifeUp’s search widget on the highest right–KnifeUp has an intensive assortment of steel guides.
