A Note on Skew Characters of Symmetric Groups

open access: yes, 2016
In previous work Regev used part of the representation theory of Lie superalgebras to compute the values of a character of the symmetric group whose decomposition into irreducible constituents is described by semistandard $(k,\ell)$-tableaux.

Improved covering results for conjugacy classes of symmetric groups via hypercontractivity

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma
We study covering numbers of subsets of the symmetric group $S_n$ that exhibit closure under conjugation, known as normal sets. We show that for any $\epsilon>0$ , there exists $n_0$ such that if $n>n_0$ and A is a normal ...

All Kronecker coefficients are reduced Kronecker coefficients

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Pi
We settle the question of where exactly do the reduced Kronecker coefficients lie on the spectrum between the Littlewood-Richardson and Kronecker coefficients by showing that every Kronecker coefficient of the symmetric group is equal to a reduced ...

Partitions which are p- and q-core [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Let p and q be distinct primes, n an integer with n > p2q2. Then there is no partition of n which is at the same time p- and q-core.

Fourier analysis on finite groups and the Lov\'asz theta-number of Cayley graphs

open access: yes, 2013
We apply Fourier analysis on finite groups to obtain simplified formulations for the Lov\'asz theta-number of a Cayley graph. We put these formulations to use by checking a few cases of a conjecture of Ellis, Friedgut, and Pilpel made in a recent article

Twisted immanant and matrices with anticommuting entries

open access: yes, 2015
This article gives a new matrix function named "twisted immanant," which can be regarded as an analogue of the immanant. This is defined for each self-conjugate partition through a "twisted" analogue of the irreducible character of the symmetric group ...

On McKay's propagation theorem for the Foulkes conjecture

open access: yes, 2015
We translate the main theorem in Tom McKay's paper "On plethysm conjectures of Stanley and Foulkes" (J. Alg. 319, 2008, pp. 2050-2071) to the language of weight spaces and projections onto invariant spaces of tensors, which makes its proof short and ...

Stanley character polynomials

open access: yes, 2014
Stanley considered suitably normalized characters of the symmetric groups on Young diagrams having a special geometric form, namely multirectangular Young diagrams.

Multiquadratic fields generated by characters of $A_n$

open access: yes, 2019
For a finite group $G$, let $K(G)$ denote the field generated over $\mathbb{Q}$ by its character values. For $n>24$, G. R. Robinson and J. G. Thompson proved that $$K(A_n)=\mathbb{Q}\left (\{ \sqrt{p^*} \ : \ p\leq n \ {\text{ an odd prime with } p\neq n-
