In a previous paper (see A. Garsia and C. Reutenauer (Adt,. in Math. 77, 1989, 189-262)). we have studied algebraic properties of the descent algebras X,,, and shown how these are related to the canonical decomposition of the free Lie algebra corresponding to a version of the PoincarE-Birkhoff-Witt

Solomon's descent algebra is generated by sums of descent classes corresponding to certain hook shapes. This particularly implies that the ring of class functions of any finite symmetric group S n is generated by the irreducible characters corresponding to certain hook partitions of n. As another co
The ring QSym of quasi-symmetric functions is naturally the dual of the Solomon descent algebra. The product and the two coproducts of the first (extending those of the symmetric functions) correspond to a coproduct and two products of the second, which are defined by restriction from the symmetric
We introduce χ-algebras, and show that a χ-algebra has the NBC basis property. We also show that a certain ideal used in the construction has the so-called BC basis property. The Orlik-Solomon algebra of a matroid, the Orlik-Terao algebra of a set of vectors, and the Cordovil algebra of an oriented
