This allows us to explain the stability properties of plethysm and Kronecker coefficients in a simple and uniform fashion for the first time. We prove the strengthened Foulkes' conjecture for stable plethysm coefficients in an elementary fashion.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-09-21T13:58:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "partition algebra", "study plethysm coefficients", "first time", "elementary fashion", "schur-weyl duality" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
