We give a new formula for the Littlewood--Richardson coefficients in terms of peelable tableaux compatible with shuffle tableaux, in the same fashion as Remmel--Whitney rule. This gives an efficient way to compute generalized Littlewood--Richardson coefficients for Temperley--Lieb immanants of Jacobi--Trudi matrices. We will also show that our rule behaves well with Bender--Knuth involutions, recovering the symmetry of Littlewood--Richardson coefficients. As an application, we use our rule to prove a special case of a Schur log-concavity conjecture by Lam--Postnikov--Pylyavskyy.

    math.CO 2026-01 accept novelty 8.0

    The Lam-Postnikov-Pylyavskyy conjecture is proven by introducing skeps as a combinatorial model for Littlewood-Richardson coefficients and establishing their L-log-concavity via Murota's theory.
