چکیده
The Murnaghan-Nakayama formula for the characters of Sn is derived from Young's seminormal representation, by a direct combinatorial argument. The main idea is a rational function identity which when stated in a more general form involves Mobius functions of posets whose Hasse diagrams have a planar embedding. These ideas are also used to give an elementary exposition of the main properties of Young's seminormal representations.

We use Kashiwara’s theory of crystal bases to study plactic monoids for Uq (so2n+1) and Uq (so2n). Simultaneously we describe a Schensted type correspondence in the crystal graphs of tensor powers of vector and spin representations and we derive a Jeu de Taquin for type B from the Sheats sliding algorithm.
متن کاملIsodual Codes over <Subscript>2<Emphasis Type="Italic">k</Emphasis></Subscript> and Isodual Lattices
A code is called isodual if it is equivalent to its dual code, and a lattice is called isodual if it is isometric to its dual lattice. In this note, we investigate isodual codes over Z2k . These codes give rise to isodual lattices; in particular, we construct a 22-dimensional isodual lattice with minimum norm 3 and kissing number 2464.

The structural gene encoding the Rieske iron-sulfur protein from Thermus thermophilus HB8 has been cloned and sequenced. The gene encodes a protein of 209 amino acids that begins with a hydrophilic N-terminus followed by a stretch of 21 hydrophobic amino acids that could serve as a transmembrane helix. The remainder of the protein has a hydrophobicity pattern typical of a water-soluble protein....

We have derived general equations to calculate intermodulation distortion in resonators with high temperature superconducting (HTS) films which are not restricted to a specific resonator shape and may be used whenever the fields in a resonator generate currents on the surface of one or more HTS films. These equations are applied to rutile-loaded cavities with one or two 10× 10 mm2 Y-Ba2-Cu3-O7−...

A determinantal expansion due to Okada is used to derive both a deformation of Weyl’s denominator formula for the Lie algebra sp(2n) of the symplectic group and a further generalisation involving a product of the deformed denominator with a deformation of flagged characters of sp(2n). In each case the relevant expansion is expressed in terms of certain shifted sp(2n)-standard tableaux. It is th...
