The representation dimension of Hecke algebras and symmetric groups
arXiv:1011.3740
Abstract
We establish a lower bound for the representation dimension of all the classical Hecke algebras of types A, B and D. For all the type A algebras, and most of the algebras of types B and D, we also establish upper bounds. Moreover, we establish bounds for the representation dimension of group algebras of some symmetric groups.
