Abstract In 2010, Rhoades proved that promotion on rectangular standard Young tableaux, together with the associated fake-degree polynomial, provides an instance of the cyclic sieving phenomenon. We extend this result to m-tuples of skew standard Young tableaux of the same shape, for fixed m, subject to the condition that the mth power of the associated fake-degree polynomial evaluates to nonnegative integers at roots of unity. However, we are unable to specify an explicit group action. Put differently, we determine in which cases the mth tensor power of a skew character of the symmetric group carries a permutation representation of the cyclic group. To do so, we use a method proposed by Amini and the first author, which amounts to establishing a bound on the number of border-strip tableaux of skew shape. Finally, we apply our results to the invariant theory of tensor powers of the adjoint representation of the general linear group. In particular, we prove the existence of a bijection between permutations and Stembridge’s alternating tableaux, which intertwines rotation and promotion.

Graphical Algorithm

International audience The $A_2$-spider category encodes the representation theory of the $sl_3$ quantum group. Kuperberg (1996) introduced a combinatorial version of this category, wherein morphisms are represented by planar graphs called $\textit{webs}$ and the subset of $\textit{reduced webs}$ forms bases for morphism spaces. A great deal of recent interest has focused on the combinatorics of invariant webs for tensors powers of $V^+$, the standard representation of the quantum group. In particular, the invariant webs for the 3$n$th tensor power of $V^+$ correspond bijectively to $[n,n,n]$ standard Young tableaux. Kuperberg originally defined this map in terms of a graphical algorithm, and subsequent papers of Khovanov–Kuperberg (1999) and Tymoczko (2012) introduce algorithms for computing the inverse. The main result of this paper is a redefinition of Kuperberg's map through the representation theory of the symmetric group. In the classical limit, the space of invariant webs carries a symmetric group action. We use this structure in conjunction with Vogan's generalized tau-invariant and Kazhdan–Lusztig theory to show that Kuperberg's map is a direct analogue of the Robinson–Schensted correspondence.

Standard Young Tableau

Motivated by the direct-sum-decomposition of the $r^{\text{th}}$ tensor power of the defining representation of the special orthogonal group $\mathrm{SO}(2k + 1)$, we present a bijection between vacillating tableaux and pairs consisting of a standard Young tableau and an orthogonal Littlewood-Richardson tableau for $\mathrm{SO}(3)$.Our bijection preserves a suitably defined descent set. Using it we determine the quasi-symmetric expansion of the Frobenius characters of the isotypic components.On the combinatorial side we obtain a bijection between Riordan paths and standard Young tableaux with 3 rows, all of even length or all of odd length.

Dual Equivalence Graphs

International audience For any polynomial representation of the special linear group, the nodes of the corresponding crystal may be indexed by semi-standard Young tableaux. Under certain conditions, the standard Young tableaux occur, and do so with weight $0$. Standard Young tableaux also parametrize the vertices of dual equivalence graphs. Motivated by the underlying representation theory, in this paper, we explain this connection by giving a combinatorial manifestation of Schur-Weyl duality. In particular, we put a dual equivalence graph structure on the $0$-weight space of certain crystal graphs, producing edges combinatorially from the crystal edges. The construction can be expressed in terms of the local characterizations given by Stembridge for crystal graphs and the author for dual equivalence graphs.

(Dual-)promotion and (dual-)evacuation are bijections on $SYT(\lambda)$ for any partition $\lambda$. Let $c^r$ denote the rectangular partition $(c,\ldots,c)$ of height $r$, and let $sc_k$ ($k>2$) denote the staircase partition $(k,k-1,\ldots,1)$. We demonstrate a promotion- and evacuation-preserving embedding of $SYT(sc_k)$ into $SYT(k^{k+1})$. We hope that this result, together with results by Rhoades on rectangular tableaux, can help to demonstrate the cyclic sieving phenomenon of promotion action on $SYT(sc_k)$.

International audience This paper presents a new proof of the hook-length formula, which computes the number of standard Young tableaux of a given shape. After recalling the basic definitions, we present two inverse algorithms giving the desired bijection. The next part of the paper presents the proof of the bijectivity of our construction. The paper concludes with some examples.

Let $g_{n_1,n_2}$ be the number of standard Young tableau of truncated shifted shape with $n_1$ rows and $n_2$ boxes in each row. By using the integral method this paper derives the recurrence relations of $g_{3,n}$, $g_{n,4}$ and $g_{n,5}$ respectively. Specifically, $g_{n,4}$ is the $(2n-1)$-st Pell number.

In this paper the number of standard Young tableaux (SYT) is evaluated by the methods of multiple integrals and combinatorial summations. We obtain the product formulas of the numbers of skew SYT of certain truncated shapes, including the skew SYT $((n+k)^{r+1},n^{m-1}) / (n-1)^r $ truncated by a rectangle or nearly a rectangle, the skew SYT of truncated shape $((n+1)^3,n^{m-2}) / (n-2) \backslash \; (2^2)$, and the SYT of truncated shape $((n+1)^2,n^{m-2}) \backslash \; (2)$.
