  • The stretched Littlewood-Richardson coefficient $c^{tν}_{tλ,tμ}$ was conjectured by King, Tollu, and Toumazet to be a polynomial function in $t.$ It was shown to be true by Derksen and Weyman using semi-invariants of quivers. Later, Rassart used Steinberg's formula, the hive conditions, and the Kostant partition function to show a stronger result that $c^ν_{λ,μ}$ is indeed a polynomial in variables $ν, λ, μ$ provided they lie in certain polyhedral cones. Motivated by Rassart's approach, we give a short alternative proof of the polynomiality of $c^{tν}_{tλ,tμ}$ using Steinberg's formula and a simple argument about the chamber complex of the Kostant partition function.
