β¦ Synopsis
We present several identities involving staircase Schur functions. These identities are then interpreted in terms of a sequence of orthogonal polynomials in one variable x, with coefficients in the ring of symmetric functions. By an appropriate specialization these polynomials reduce to Bessel polynomials. This leads to a new determinantal expression for Bessel polynomials and suggests that their combinatorics might be linked to Young tableaux or shifted Young tableaux.

We give bijective proofs of the Hook-Schur function analogues of two well-known identities of Littlewood. In the course of our proof, we propose a new correspondence which can be considered as a generalization of the Burge correspondences used in proving the Littlewood identities.
