James Haglund
{{Short description|American mathematician}}
James Haglund is an American mathematician who specializes in algebraic combinatorics and enumerative combinatorics,[https://www2.math.upenn.edu/~jhaglund James Haglund's Home Page] and works as a professor of mathematics at the University of Pennsylvania.[https://www.math.upenn.edu/people/james-haglund James Haglund] at [https://www.math.upenn.edu Penn Math Dept]
Education
Haglund received his Ph.D. in 1993 from the University of Georgia, with the dissertation Compositions, Rook Placements, and Permutations of Vectors supervised by Earl Rodney Canfield.{{mathgenealogy|5627}}
Research contributions
In 2005, together with M. Haiman and N. Loehr gave the first proof of a combinatorial interpretation of the Macdonald polynomials. In 2007, Haglund, Haiman and Loehr gave a combinatorial formula for the non-symmetric Macdonald polynomials.
Haglund is the author of The -Catalan Numbers and the Space of Diagonal Harmonics: With an Appendix on the Combinatorics of Macdonald Polynomials.[The -Catalan Numbers and the Space of Diagonal Harmonics: With an Appendix on the Combinatorics of Macdonald Polynomials], University Lecture Series, vol. 41, American Mathematical Society, 2008.
