New columns in decomposition matrices of symmetric groups for every block
David J. Hemmer, Pavel Turek
The central unsolved problem in the modular representation theory of symmetric groups is to find the decomposition matrices, which describe how irreducible representations in chara…
Divisible Arm Lengths, Crystal Reflections, and Enumeration of Newly Found Decomposition Columns
David J. Hemmer, Pavel Turek
In recent work the authors determine complete columns of symmetric-group decomposition matrices in odd prime characteristic labeled by -regular partitions for which every ho…
Mullineux map: -balanced partitions and -runner matrices
Pavel Turek
Let be two integers. For prime, the Mullineux map describes tensor products of the irreducible modules of symmetric groups with the sign in characteristic as…
Proof of the plethystic Murnaghan-Nakayama rule using Loehr's labelled abacus
Pavel Turek
The plethystic Murnaghan-Nakayama rule describes how to decompose the product of a Schur function and a plethysm of the form as a sum of Schur functions. We provide…
Multiplicity-free induced characters of symmetric groups
Pavel Turek
Let be a non-negative integer. Combining algebraic and combinatorial techniques, we investigate for which pairs of a subgroup of the symmetric group and an i…
Symmetric powers of and
Pavel Turek, Jialin Wang
Let be a prime and be a positive integer. We establish new formulae for the decompositions of the first symmetric powers of the Specht module and…
