Hook removal operators on the odd Young graph
Algebraic Combinatorics, Volume 2 (2019) no. 2, pp. 249-274.

In this article we consider hook removal operators on odd partitions, i.e., partitions labelling odd-degree irreducible characters of finite symmetric groups. In particular we complete the discussion, started in [8] and developed in [3], concerning the commutativity of such operators.
