Cossey", "Matthew Ondrus", "C. Ryan Vinroot" ], "categories": [ "math.CO", "math.RT" ], "abstract": "For any prime p, we construct, and simultaneously count, all of the complex Specht modules in a given p-block of the symmetric group which remain irreducible when reduced modulo p. We call the Specht modules with this property p-irreducible modules. Recently Fayers has proven a conjecture of James and Mathas that provides a characterization of the partitions that correspond to the p-irreducible modules. In this paper we present a method for decomposing the partitions corresponding to p-irreducible modules, and we use this decomposition to construct and count all of the partitions corresponding to p-irreducible Specht modules in a given block.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2006-05-24T22:30:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05E10" ], "keywords": [ "symmetric group", "complex specht modules", "partitions corresponding", "p-irreducible specht modules", "property p-irreducible modules" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2006math......5654C" } } }
