<p>Hi!</p> <p>Let P be a permutation in the symmetric group S_N and let &pi;=&pi;_{j, j+1} be a transposition of elements j and j+1 of the permutation. Let A(P) be a function in dependence of the permutation P. P&pi; is the permutation P with elements j and j+1 switched. I need to get an explicit expression of A(P) for the recursion relation:</p> <p>$$\frac{A(P\pi)}{A(P)} = - \exp(-i(k_{p_j}- k_{p_{j+1}}))$$</p> <p>k_j are numbers, and $p_j$ is the j-th element of the permutation.</p> <p>I hope someone can give me a hint or advice to solve this.</p> <p>Tobias</p>

Hm ok, it's a problem I came up on physics but thought it might fit more on mathoverflow. This comes up on solving a many-body model with Bethe-ansatz. I might ask this question on &quot;physics overflow&quot; then.
