A Note on Certain Kronecker Coefficients
نویسنده
چکیده
We prove an explicit formula for the tensor product with itself of an irreducible complex representation of the symmetric group defined by a rectangle of height two. We also describe part of the decomposition for the tensor product of representations defined by rectangles of heights two and four. Our results are deduced, through Schur-Weyl duality, from the observation that certain actions on triple tensor products of vector spaces, are multiplicity free.

A Stability Property for Coefficients in Kronecker Products of Complex Sn Characters
In this note we make explicit a stability property for Kronecker coefficients that is implicit in a theorem of Y. Dvir. Even in the simplest nontrivial case this property was overlooked despite of the work of several authors. As applications we give a new vanishing result and a new formula for some Kronecker coefficients.
متن کاملBounds on certain classes of Kronecker and q-binomial coefficients
We present a lower bound on the Kronecker coefficients for tensor squares of the symmetric group via the characters of Sn, which we apply to obtain various explicit estimates. Notably, we extend Sylvester’s unimodality of q-binomial coefficients ( n k ) q as polynomials in q to derive sharp bounds on the differences of their consecutive coefficients. We then derive effective asymptotic lower bo...
متن کاملSOME ASYMPTOTIC RESULTS ON q-BINOMIAL COEFFICIENTS
q have been investigated in relation to questions of representation theory concerning the growth of Kronecker coefficients. Further, one of the results of this note, Theorem 2.2, has also been motivated by, and finds a first useful application in the study of the unimodality of partitions with distinct parts that are contained inside certain Ferrers diagrams (see our own paper [10]). For m = ⌊a...
متن کاملUnimodality via Kronecker Products
We present new proofs and generalizations of unimodality of the q-binomial coefficients ( n k ) q as polynomials in q. We use an algebraic approach by interpreting the differences between numbers of certain partitions as Kronecker coefficients of representations of Sn. Other applications of this approach include strict unimodality of the diagonal q-binomial coefficients and unimodality of certa...
متن کاملSTRICT UNIMODALITY OF q-BINOMIAL COEFFICIENTS
We prove strict unimodality of the q-binomial coefficients ( n k ) q as polynomials in q. The proof is based on the combinatorics of certain Young tableaux and the semigroup property of Kronecker coefficients of Sn representations. Résumé. Nous prouvons l’unimodalité stricte des coefficients q-binomiaux ( n k ) q comme des polynômes en q. La preuve est basée sur la combinatoire de certains Tabl...
