What is $\dim D^{\lambda}$ for the symmetric group?

What are the dimensions of the simple modules $D^{\lambda}=S^{\lambda}/S^{\lambda}\cap (S^{\lambda})^{\perp}$ for the modular representation theory of $S_n$, i.e. $\operatorname{char}(k)=p>0$? I ...

Congruence modulo 2 for q-series

This quest arose from certain calculations with integer partitions (having distinct parts) and the corresponding values of their Dyson ranks. I would like to ask: QUESTION. Is this congruence true ...

Where does this identity involving sums of Hankel-like determinants over partitions come from?

For a partition $\lambda=( \lambda_1,\dots,\lambda_n)\vdash n$ with $\lambda_1\ge\dots\ge\lambda_n\ge0$ and any function $f:\mathbb Z\to\mathbb C$, define a Hankel-like $n\times n$ matrix $$M_f(\...

Seeking a bijective proof enumerating two partition sets: Part I

An integer partition is a sequence $\lambda=(\lambda_1\geq\lambda_2\geq\dotsb\geq\lambda_k)$ of positive integers, for some $k\geq1$. Consider the following two sets of partitions of $n$. Fix a ...

Number of 3-tuple partitions of a multiple of three which follow the triangle inequality

Given n=3t, t$\in \mathbb N$; let $\mathbb L_3$ be set of all distinct integer partitions of n having 3 parts; say $\lambda_1,\lambda_2,\lambda_3$ . If I chose any one partition randomly from $\...

Writing integers as sequences of products by 2 and integer divisions by 3

For any integer, we consider its decompositions into sequences of products by $2$ and integer division by $3$. For instance: $$ 100 = 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \...

New identity for sum over Young diagram of symmetric group?

Consider the next identity $$ \sum_{\tau \vdash r} d^2 (\tau ) \! \prod_{i = -(r-1)}^{r-1} \! \! \left( N+i \right)^{t_i^r} =\sum_{\tau \vdash r} d^2 (\tau ) \prod_{i = 1}^{r} \Gamma [N + \tau_i - ...

How to obtain explicit formula for this sum over Young diagram?

Consider the next essence $$ B_N (r, q) =\sum_{\tau \vdash r} d^2 (\tau ) \prod_{i = 1}^{r} \frac{\Gamma [N + \tau_i - i +1]}{\Gamma [N + \tau_i - i +1+q]} $$ where $d(\tau)$ is dimension of ...

Parity of number of partitions of $n!/6$ and $n!/2$

The parities of the number of partitions of $n!/6$ and $n!/2$ appear to be non-random initially, as follows — is there an explanation for this other than chance? With $p$ being the partition ...
