   <arXiv:Abstract>  We present two symmetric function operators $H\_3^{qt}$ and $H\_4^{qt}$ that
   have the property $H\_{3}^{qt} H\_{(2^a1^b)}[X;q,t] = H\_{(32^a1^b)}[X;q,t]$ and
   $H\_4^{qt} H\_{(2^a1^b)}[X;q,t] = H\_{(42^a1^b)}[X;q,t]$. These operators are
   generalizations of the analogous operator $H\_2^{qt}$ and also have expressions
   in terms of Hall-Littlewood vertex operators. We also discuss statistics,
   $a\_{\mu}(T)$ and $b\_{\mu}(T)$, on standard tableaux such that the $q,t$ Kostka
   polynomials are given by the sum over standard tableaux of shape $\la$,
   $K\_{\la\mu}(q,t) = \sum\_T t^{a\_{\mu}(T)} q^{b\_{\mu}(T)}$ for the case when when
   $\mu$ is two columns or of the form $(32^a1^b)$ or $(42^a1^b)$. This provides
   proof of the positivity of the $(q,t)$-Kostka coefficients in the previously
   unknown cases of $K\_{\la (32^a1^b)}(q,t)$ and $K\_{\la (42^a1^b)}(q,t)$. The
   vertex operator formulas are used to give formulas for generating functions for
   classes of standard tableaux that generalize the case when $\mu$ is two
   columns.</arXiv:Abstract>

### Query and Parse arXiv API Data in Python

Source: https://info.arxiv.org/help/api/examples/python_arXiv_parsing_example.txt

Uses urllib to perform a GET request and feedparser to process the resulting Atom feed. Requires the feedparser library to be installed.

```python
"""
python_arXiv_parsing_example.py

This sample script illustrates a basic arXiv api call
followed by parsing of the results using the 
feedparser python module.

Please see the documentation at 
http://export.arxiv.org/api_help/docs/user-manual.html
for more information, or email the arXiv api 
mailing list at arxiv-api@googlegroups.com.

urllib is included in the standard python library.
feedparser can be downloaded from http://feedparser.org/ .

Author: Julius B. Lucks

This is free software.  Feel free to do what you want
with it, but please play nice with the arXiv API!
