schubertPolynomial -- computes the Schubert polynomial of a permutation

Usage:

schubertPolynomial w
Inputs:
- w, a list,
Optional inputs:
- Algorithm => a string, default value "DividedDifference", algorithm "Transition" also available

Description

Given a permutation in 1-line notation, finds its (single) Schubert polynomial. Two algorithms are impliemented: DividedDifference (which is the default) and Transition (which makes use of the transition equations for Schubert polynomials).
