In 2015 Ciubotaru and He, using the extended Dirac index, showed that the characters of the projective representations of $S_n$ are related to the characters of elliptic graded modules. We derived the branching graph using Dirac theory and combinatorics relating to the cohomology of Borel varieties $\\mathcal{B}_e$ of $\\mathfrak{g}$ and were able to use Dirac cohomology to construct an explicit model for the projective representations. We also described Vogan's morphism for Hecke algebras in type A using spectrum data of the Jucys-Murphy elements.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-05-18T08:57:45.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "dirac cohomology", "symmetric group", "vogan morphism", "projective supermodules", "branching graph" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
