The aim of this work is to calculate the Fischer matrices for the covering groups of the Weyl group of type Bn and the generalized symmetric group. It is shown that the Fischer matrices are the same as those in the ordinary case for the classes of Sn which correspond to partitions with all parts odd. For the classes of Sn which correspond to partitions in which no part is repeated more than m times, the Fischer matrices are shown to be different from the ordinary case.

Complex Linear

Let G be a Weyl group of type B, and T a set of representatives of the conjugacy classes of self-inverse elements of G. For each t in T, we construct a (complex) linear character πt of the centraliser of t in G, such that the sum of the characters of G induced from the πt contains each irreducible complex character of G with multiplicity precisely 1. For Weyl groups of type A (that is, for the symmetric groups), a similar result was published recently by Inglis, Richardson and Saxl.

International Audience

International audience We describe a type B analog of the much studied Lie representation of the symmetric group. The nth Lie representation of Sn restricts to the regular representation of Sn−1, and our generalization mimics this property. Specifically, we construct a representation of the type B Weyl group Bn that restricts to the regular representation of Bn−1. We view both of these representations as coming from the internal zonotopal algebra of the Gale dual of the corresponding reflection arrangements.

Infinite Dimensional

The infinite symmetric group is the discrete group of all finite permutations of the set X of all natural numbers. Among discrete groups, it has distinctive features from the viewpoint of representation theory and harmonic analysis. First, it is one of the most typical ICC-groups as well as free groups and known to be a group of non-type I. Secondly, it is a locally finite group, namely, the inductive limit of usual symmetric groups . Furthermore it is contained in infinite dimensional classical groups GL(ξ), O(ξ) and U(ξ) and their representation theories are related each other.

AbstractThe symmetric group on a set acts transitively on the set of its subsets of a fixed size. We define homomorphisms between the corresponding permutation modules, defined over a field of characteristic two, which generalize the boundary maps from simplicial homology. The main results determine when these chain complexes are exact and when they are split exact. As a corollary we obtain a new explicit construction of the basic spin modules for the symmetric group.

Complex Characters

AbstractA finite group whose irreducible complex characters are rational valued is called a rational group. Thus, G is a rational group if and only if N G(〈x〉)/C G(〈x〉) ≌ Aut(〈x〉) for every x ∈ G. For example, all symmetric groups and their Sylow 2-subgroups are rational groups. Structure of rational groups have been studied extensively, but the general classification of rational groups has not been able to be done up to now. In this paper, we show that a full symmetric group of prime degree does not have any rational transitive proper subgroup and that a rational doubly transitive permutation group containing a full cycle is the full symmetric group. We also obtain several results related to the study of rational groups.

Commutativity Property

A commuting graph is a graph denoted by C ( G , X ) where G is any group and X, a subset of a group G, is a set of vertices for C ( G , X ) . Two distinct vertices, x , y ∈ X , will be connected by an edge if the commutativity property is satisfied or x y = y x . This study presents results for the connectivity of C ( G , X ) when G is a symmetric group of degree n, Sym ( n ) , and X is a conjugacy class of elements of order three in G.

Let [Formula: see text] be the prime graph associated with a finite group [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] be the degree pattern of [Formula: see text]. A finite group [Formula: see text] is said to be [Formula: see text]-fold [Formula: see text]-characterizable if there exist exactly [Formula: see text] nonisomorphic groups [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. The purpose of this paper is two-fold. First, it shows that the symmetric group [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text]-fold [Formula: see text]-charaterizable. Second, it shows that there exist many infinite families of alternating and symmetric groups, [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], which are [Formula: see text]-fold [Formula: see text]-characterizable with [Formula: see text].
