Abstract:Two skew diagrams are defined to be equivalent if their corresponding skew Schur functions are equal. The equivalence classes of ribbons (edgewise connected skew diagrams without a $2\times 2$ block of boxes) have been classified by Billera, Thomas and van Willigenburg in 2006.
In this paper, we provide a complete characterization of the equivalence classes of connected skew diagrams with exactly one inclusion-maximal $2\times m$ or $m\times 2$ block of boxes for every $m\ge 2$. In particular, the possible sizes of such equivalence classes are one, two, or four, demonstrating that a single $2\times m$ or $m\times 2$ block dramatically reduces the sizes of equivalence classes. Our result confirms special cases of the elusive conjecture on equivalent connected skew diagrams proposed by McNamara and van Willigenburg in 2009.
