چکیده

Confirming a conjecture made by Bessenrodt and Kleshchev in 1999, we classify all Kronecker products of characters of the symmetric groups with only three or four components. On the way towards this result, we obtain new information about constituents in Kronecker products.

On (almost) Extreme Components in Kronecker Products of Characters of the Symmetric Groups

Using a recursion formula due to Dvir, we obtain information on maximal and almost maximal components in Kronecker products of characters of the symmetric groups. This is applied to confirm a conjecture made by Bessenrodt and Kleshchev in 1999, which classifies all such Kronecker products with only three or four components.

On Mixed Products of Complex Characters of the Double Covers of the Symmetric Groups

Kronecker products of complex characters of the symmetric group Sn have been studied in many papers. Information on special products and on the coefficients of special constituents have been obtained but there is no efficient combinatorial algorithm in sight for computing these products. In [1], products of Sn-characters with few homogeneous components and homogeneous products of characters of ...

On Kronecker Products of Spin Characters of the Double Covers of the Symmetric Groups

In recent years, a number of results on Kronecker products of complex Sncharacters have been obtained. In particular, the rectangular hull for the constituents in such products was found, and this was used for the classification of products with few homogeneous components; see [1] for this classification result and references to related work. Here, we provide similar results for products of spi...

On Kronecker Products of Complex Representations of the Symmetric and Alternating Groups

Kronecker or inner tensor products of representations of symmetric groups (and many other groups) have been studied for a long time. But even for the symmetric groups no reasonable formula for decomposing Kronecker products of two irreducible complex representations into irreducible components is available (cf. [7, 5]). An equivalent problem is to decompose the inner product of the correspondin...

Kronecker Products, Characters, Partitions, and the Tensor Square Conjectures

We study the remarkable Saxl conjecture which states that tensor squares of certain irreducible representations of the symmetric groups Sn contain all irreducibles as their constituents. Our main result is that they contain representations corresponding to hooks and two row Young diagrams. For that, we develop a new sufficient condition for the positivity of Kronecker coefficients in terms of c...
