For $\\lambda$ inside the square our combinatorial interpretation provides an upper bound for the coefficients. In general, we are able to combinatorially compute these coefficients for all $\\lambda$ when $n>(2p-2)^2$. We use this combinatorial interpretation to give characterizations for multiplicity free Kronecker products. We have also obtained some formulas for special cases.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2013-01-22T20:01:11.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05E10", "20C30" ], "keywords": [ "combinatorial interpretation", "coefficient", "multiplicity free kronecker products", "special cases", "partition inside" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 29, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
