What is the definition of plethysm in the representation theory of permutation groups
Let $s_\lambda \circ s_\mu$ be a plethysm. Here let $\lambda, \mu$ be $m,n$ box Young diagrams.
I have seen the definition of plethysms in symmetric functions. I would like to understand the ...

Special sets of involutions generating ${\rm S}_n$
For which positive integers $k$ and $r$ are there involutions $g_{n,i} \in {\rm S}_n$
$(n \in \mathbb{N}, \ i = 1, \dots, k)$ such that the following hold?:
for any $n$, the $g_{n,i}$ $(i = 1, \dots, ...
