In the context of generating functions for $P$-partitions, we revisit three flavors of quasisymmetric functions: Gessel's quasisymmetric functions, Chow's type B quasisymmetric functions, and Poirier's signed quasisymmetric functions. In each case we use the inner coproduct to give a combinatorial description (counting pairs of permutations) to the multiplication in: Solomon's type A descent algebra, Solomon's type B descent algebra, and the Mantaci-Reutenauer algebra, respectively. The presentation is brief and elementary, our main results coming as consequences of $P$-partition theorems already in the literature.

The Eulerian polynomial $A_n(t)$ enumerating descents in $\mathfrak{S}_n$ is known to be gamma positive for all $n$. When enumeration is done over the type B and type D Coxeter groups, the type B and type D Eulerian polynomials are also known to be gamma positive for all $n$. We consider $A_n^+(t)$ and $A_n^-(t)$, the polynomials which enumerate descents in the alternating group $\mathcal{A}_n$ and in $\mathfrak{S}_n - \mathcal{A}_n$ respectively.  We show the following results about $A_n^+(t)$ and $A_n^-(t)$: both polynomials are gamma positive iff $n \equiv 0,1$ (mod 4). When $n \equiv 2,3$ (mod 4), both polynomials are not palindromic. When $n \equiv 2$ (mod 4), we show that {\sl two} gamma positive summands add up to give $A_n^+(t)$ and $A_n^-(t)$. When $n \equiv 3$ (mod 4), we show that {\sl three} gamma positive summands add up to give both $A_n^+(t)$ and $A_n^-(t)$.  We show similar gamma positivity results about the descent based type B and type D Eulerian polynomials when enumeration is done over the positive elements in the respective Coxeter groups. We also show that the polynomials considered in this work are unimodal.

A number of generalized Hurwitz–Lerch zeta functions have been presented and investigated. In this study, by choosing a known extended Hurwitz–Lerch zeta function of two variables, which has been very recently presented, in a systematic way, we propose to establish certain formulas and representations for this extended Hurwitz–Lerch zeta function such as integral representations, generating functions, derivative formulas and recurrence relations. We also point out that the results presented here can be reduced to yield corresponding results for several less generalized Hurwitz–Lerch zeta functions than the extended Hurwitz–Lerch zeta function considered here. For further investigation, among possibly various more generalized Hurwitz–Lerch zeta functions than the one considered here, two more generalized settings are provided.

Abstract We define and study odd and even analogues of the major index statistics for the classical Weyl groups. More precisely, we show that the generating functions of these statistics, twisted by the one-dimensional characters of the corresponding groups, always factor in an explicit way. In particular, we obtain odd and even analogues of Carlitz’s identity, of the Gessel–Simion Theorem, and a parabolic extension, and refinement, of a result of Wachs.

Let G be a Weyl group of type B, and T a set of representatives of the conjugacy classes of self-inverse elements of G. For each t in T, we construct a (complex) linear character πt of the centraliser of t in G, such that the sum of the characters of G induced from the πt contains each irreducible complex character of G with multiplicity precisely 1. For Weyl groups of type A (that is, for the symmetric groups), a similar result was published recently by Inglis, Richardson and Saxl.
