On Minimal Polynomials of Elements in Symmetric and Alternating Groups
Velmurugan S
Let be an irreducible representation of the symmetric group (or the alternating group ), and let be a permutation on letters with each of its cycl…

Cyclic Characters of Alternating Groups
Amrutha P, Amritanshu Prasad, Velmurugan S
We determine the eigenvalues with multiplicity of each element of an alternating group in any irreducible representation. This is equivalent to determining the decomposition of cyc…

On the Existence of Elementwise Invariant Vectors in Representations of Symmetric Groups
Amrutha P, Amritanshu Prasad, Velmurugan S
We determine when a permutation with cycle type admits a non-zero invariant vector in the irreducible representation of the symmetric group. We find that a majority of pa…
