Some combinatorial properties of hook lengths, contents, and parts of partitions

The main result of this paper is a generalization of a conjecture of Guoniu Han, originally inspired by an identity of Nekrasov and Okounkov. Our result states that if F is any symmetric function (say over ℚ) and if $$\Phi_n(F)=\frac{1}{n!}\sum_{\lambda\vdash n}f_\lambda^2F(h_u^2:u\in\lambda),$$ w...
