Abstract

We prove that the Catalan Lie idempotent Dn(a,b), introduced in [Menous \it et al., Adv. Appl. Math. 51 (2013), 177] can be refined by introducing n independent parameters a0,…,an-1 and that the coefficient of each monomial is itself a Lie idempotent in the descent algebra. These new idempotents are multiplicity-free sums of subsets of the Poincaré-Birkhoff-Witt basis of the Lie module. These results are obtained by embedding noncommutative symmetric functions into the dual noncommutative Connes-Kreimer algebra, which also allows us to interpret, and rederive in a simpler way, Chapoton's results on a two-parameter tree expanded series.
