Extended nilHecke algebras and symmetric functions in type B

We formulate a type B extended nilHecke algebra, following the type A construction of Naisse and Vaz. We describe an action of this algebra on extended polynomials and describe some results on the structure on the extended symmetric polynomials. Finally, following Appel, Egilmez, Hogancamp, and Lauda, we prove a result analogous to a classical theorem of Solomon connecting the extended symmetric polynomial ring to a ring of usual symmetric polynomials and their differentials.
