Combinatorics and invariant theory of multiplicity free spaces

We study the generalization of shifted Jack polynomials to arbitrary multiplicity free spaces. In a previous paper we showed that these polynomials are eigenfunctions for commuting difference operators. Our central result now is the "transposition formula", a generalization of Okounkov's binomial theorem for shifted Jack polynomials. From this formula, we derive an interpolation formula, an evaluation formula, a scalar product, a binomial theorem, and properties of the algebra generated by the multiplication and difference operators.
