Characteristic classes of symmetric group $S_4$
For Q2, my collaborators and I show that all mod-two cohomology of symmetric groups is generated by Stiefel-Whitney classes of standard representations, if you allow both cup product and transfer (ind …

Tensor products of permutation representations of symmetric groups.
I am looking for a reference for the following fact which must be classical (which makes it harder, for me, to track a reference down). I am interested because there are similar (more complicated) st …
