| Aug 3, 2012 at 21:27 | comment | added | Alex B. | Every finite group is a subgroup of some symmetric group. Without further information, you are simply asking how to compute the irreducible representation of some given finite group. Have a look at one of the standard books on character theory, such as Serre, or Isaacs. | |
