Abstract

We define the Schur graph as the graph of shifted Young diagrams. Multiplicative central measures on this graph have a characteristic property: their transition probabilities differ from those of standard Plancherel's measures by a factor that depends on the added box and on the order of the diagram. We find all such measures and show that they are parametrized by one positive real number.
