the end we show that this bilinear form must have been known to Young,
by using it in a new construction of Young's Orthogonal Form. It is
remarkable that its significance in the representation theory of the
symmetric grouns was only recently recognized.

bilinear forms.
Let M be a finite-dimensional vector space over F. The dual of
M is the vector space of linear maps from Minto F, and will be denoted
by M*. Let el, ••• ,e be a basis of a subspace V, and extend to a basis
k
el, ••• ,e ofM. ForlSjsm, definec. 11 * bye. c. = l i f i = j , and
m J J
o if i j. By considering the action on el, ••• ,e m, we see that any
element ¢ of M* can be written uniquely as a linear combination of
cl' •••• ,c m' thus: ¢ (el¢)c l + ••• +(em¢)c m• Therefore, cl, ••• ,c m
is a basis of M* and
dim M = dim 11* •
Further, ¢ belongs to VO , the annihilator of V, if and only if
e = ••• = e = O. Therefore, ck+l, ••• ,c m spans VO and
l¢ k¢
dim V + dim VO = dim 11.
Suppose now that we have a symmetric bilinear form, < , >, on 11
which is non-singular (That is, for every non-zero m in 11 there is an
m' in 11 with <m,m'> 0). Define
8: M + 11 * by m + where
x + <m,x> (x c M).
We see that
M*, since < , > is linear in the second place, and
m
8 is a linear transformation, since < , > is linear in the first place.
Now, ker 8 = {m M I for all x M, <m,x> O}= 0, since the bilinear form
is non-singular. But dim M = d i.r.i 11*, so 8 is an isomorphism between
M and M*. Under this v L corresponds to Vo. Thus, for
every subspace V,

It is very ±mportant to notice that V n V can be non-zero for a
submodule V of M. How can we compute the dimension of V/(V n V 1 ) , given
a basis of V? The answer is simple in theory, but will require a lot
of calculation if V has large dimension. The Gram matrix, A, is def-
ined with respect to a basis el, ••• ,e of V by letting the (i,j)th

entry of A be <ei,e > .

mathematicians would interpret the product as (1 2 3).

difficult to handle, but it is not irreducible, since I { ij 11 5 i

moment, but simply observe that M(n-2,2) supplies more scope for inves-
tigation.
More generally, we can work with the vector space M(n-m,m) spanned
by unordered m-tuples il ••• i (where i i unless j = k). Since
m j k
this space is isomorphic to that spanned by unordered (n-m)-tuples,
there is no loss in assuming that n-m m. This means that for every
partition of n with two non-zero parts we have a corresponding (redu-
cible) F G -module at our disposal.

Flushed with this success, we should go on and see what else we

can do. Let M be the space spanned by ordered pairs, which we
shall denote by (i j). The G action is 7T = 12. Let M(n-3,2,l)

some authors write this relation as A < This is called the dictio-
nary order on partitions.
It is simple to verify that the total order > contains the partial
order in the sense that A implies A But the reverse
lication is false since
The only use of the total order> is to specify, say, the order in
which to take the rows of the character table of G n' Since there may
be more than one selfconjugate partition of n (e.g. (4,2,1 2) and (3 2,2)
are both selfconjugate partitions of 8), there is no "symmetrical"
way of totally ordering partitions, so that the order is reversed by
conjugates. It is interesting to see, though, that
A if and only if t> A'.
The next thing to define is a Atableau. This can be defined as
a bijection from [A] to {1,2, ••• ,n}, but we prefer the less formal

This orders the tabloids of all shapes and sizes, but we shall
compare only tabloids associated with the same partition.

Ker G, then A V. If A - V, the restriction of G to S is multipli-
cation by a constant.
Remark Ker G c SAL by the Submodule Theorem, since Ker G sA. The
Lemma will later be improved in several ways (cf. 11.3 and 13.17) .
Proof: When F = Q, < , > is an inner product. The rank of the Gram
matrix with respect to a basis of SA therefore equals dim SA for any
field of characteristic O. Thus
when char F = 0, SAn SAL = 0 and !'II.. = SA @ SAL.
Any homomorphism defined on sX can therefore be extended to be
defined on MA by letting i t be zero on SAL. Now apply the Lemma.
5. EXAMPLES
5.1 Reverting to the notation of Example 2.5, where the first
row of the tabloids in M(n-l,l) is omitted, we have
S (n-l ' 1) - - , \ ' " I ai"F,al+···+an-O

s(n-l,l)L= Sp(I + 2 + ••• + n).
Clearly, s(n-l,l)l c s(n-l,l)if and only if char F divides n. By
the Submodule Theorem
(1 2) (1 2)
o c S (12)L = S cM if char F = 2 and n = 2
o c s(n-l,l)lc s(n-l,l) c M(n-l,l) if char F divides n > 2
are the unique composition series for M(n-l,l) if char F divides n.
The same Theorem shows that when char F does not divide n, S(n-l,l)
is irreducible and M(n-l,l) = s(n-l,l) s(n-l,l)L.
Note that in all cases s(n-l,l)l = s(n) and dim S(n-l,l) = n-l.

(b) Find conditions similar to 5.3 characterizing the Specht
module as a submodule of the second expression for s(n-l,l) in
Example 5.1).
We have proved that etl, ••• ,etS are linearly independent; here, as
in the general case, it is a lot harder to prove that they span s(3,2)

the reader how to do this.

Proof: This result comes from the proof of Theorem 8.4; alternatively,
see 8.9 below.
Proof: We may assume that v is non-zero. Let {t} be the last (in
the < order) tabloid involved in v-, with coefficient a s :1':, say. By
the last corollary, {t} is standard. Now Lemma 8.3 shows that the
last tabloid in v - a e is before {t}, so by induction v - a e t is

an integral linear combination of standard poly tabloids. Therefore,
the same is true of v.

Having shown that no two are isomorphic, we are left with the
question: Why have we got all the irreducible representations over F?
ill section 17 we shall prove that every composition factor of the regular
representation over F is isomorphic to some and then Theorem 1.1
gives our result. Rather than follow this artificial approach, the
reader will probably prefer to accept two results from representation
theory which we quote from Curtis and Reiner [2J:
Curtis and Reiner 83.7: If Q is a splitting field for a group G, then
every field is a splitting field for G.
Curtis and Reiner 83.5: If F is a splitting field for G, then the num-
ber of inequivalent irreducible FGmodules equals the number of p-
regular classes of G.
Since Theorem 4.12 shows Q is a splitting field, Lemma 10.2 now
sees us home. More subtle, (to make use of our knowledge that is
absolutely irreducible), is to combine Curtis and Reiner 83.5 with
Curtis and Reiner 82.6: The number of inequivalent absolutely irred-
ucible FGmodules is less than or equal to the number of pregular
classes of G.
Theorem 1.6 gives

This nesting suggests that we should have some notation which adds

The operator R merely moves some nodes lying outside ll* to the end
c
of the row above (R stands for "raise" and A stands for "add"). Both
and II are involved in the definitions of Ac and Rc' and note that
we stipulate that ll:_l equals llc-l'
Since R raises some nodes, and we always enclose all the nodes in
c

leads eventually to a pair of partitions of the form A,A (when, per-

Let s belong to s(ll# ,IlRc)' We say that a c-l is black in s if it

by condition (i). Thus, this i is preceded by no (i-l) 's when reading
from right to left in successive rows, and the i is bad, contradicting
condition (iii). But no i can appear in the ith row with i > i, Lv condi-
tion (ii). This proves that every i is in the ith row, and [v] =
16.3 LEI1MA
Proof: Assume that is a partition of r, and that A and v are
partitions of n-r and n, respectively, with Ai vi for each i.
Replace each node in [v]\[A] by l's, 2's and so on, such that we
have a sequence in \ A when reading from right to left
c
in successive rows. We must prove blat changing all the bad c's to
(c-l) 's gives a configuration of integers satisfying 16.1 (i) and (ii)
if and only if we start with a configuration of integers satisfying
16.1 (i) and (ii), since the Len®a will then follow from Theorem 15.14.
Suppose we have not yet changed the bad c" s to (c-l) , s and condi-
tions 16.1 (i) and (ii) hold for our configuration of integers. There
are two problems which might occur. A bad c might be to the right of
a good c in the same row. This cannot happen, because a c immediately
after a bad c must itself be bad, llore complicated is the possibility
that there is a bad c in the (i,j)th place and a c-l in the (i-l,jlth
place. To deal with this, let m be maximal such that there are c's in
the (i,j)th,(i,j+l)th, ••• , (i,j+m-l)th places. Then by conditions 16.1
(L) and (ii), there are (c-l) 's in the (i-l,j) th, (i-l,j+l) th, ••• , (i-l,
j+m-l)th places. Since all the (c-l) 's are good in a sequence belonging
to our c in the (i,j)th place must be good, after
all, by 15.4. This shows that all the bad c's can be changed to (c-l) 's
without affecting conditions 16.1(i) and (ii).
Conversely, suppose that after changing the Dad c's to (c-l) 's we
have a configuration satisfying conditions 16.1 (i) and (ii). We dis-
cuss the configuration of integers we started with. This must satisfy
conditions 16.1 (i) and (ii) unless a bad c occurs immediately to the
left of a (good) c-l in the same row, or a bad c lies immediately above
a good c in the same column. The first problem cannot occur by 15.4.
Therefore, we have only to worry about the possibility that a bad c is
in the (i-l,j)th place and a good c is in the (i,j)th place. Reading
from right to left in successive rows, we see that the number of (good)
(c-l) 's in the (i-l)th row to the left of our bad c in the (i-l,j)th
place is at least the number of good c's in the ith row. But every
c-l in the (i-l)th row to the left of the (i-l,j)th place must have a
good c immediately below it in the ith rm'1 (s Lrce there is a good c in

[a][B] = [a + b,lnab] + [a + b l,lnab+l] + some nonhook diagrams.

Then the character inner product

Remark: Theorem 21.4 can also be proved using the Determinantal Form,
but the above proof is more elegant.
(i) Any column containing a 1 has just one 1, which is at the top
of the column.
(ii) For i > 1, i+l is in a later row than i; in particular, no
two numbers greater than 1 are in the same row.
(iii) The first non-empty row contains no number greater than 1.
(iv) Any row containing a number greater than 1 has it at the end
of the row.

since neither left hand node can be replaced by a number greater than 1

Proof: The hypothesis shows that no skew kp-hook can be removed from

The proof we have given for the MurnaghanNakayama Rule has been
designed to demonstrate the way in which skewhooks come into rlay.
The Rule can also be deduced from the Determinantal Form, and we conclude
this section with an outline of the method.

In the next couple of sections, we shall put our mind to the repre-
sentations of G over a field of finite characteristic p. Many of the
n
problems which arise depend upon deciding whether or not the prime p
divides certain binomial coefficients, and the relevant Lemmas are
collected in this section.

From now on, we shall label the rows of our decomposition matrices
by partitions, and the columns by p-regular partitions. Thus the entry
in the row and Ath column is the multiplicity of n A as a composition
factor of over a field of characteristic p. Omitted entries in
de cpmpos i tion matrices are zero. We write X

Note that Examples 24.2 and 24.3 have been computed without using
the Nakayama Conjecture, and without resorting to induction (except
where it is implicit in Theorem 24.1). We agree that it is quicker to
deduce the decomposition matrix of from that of using the Bran-
ching Theorem and block theory, but this traditional method of finding
decomposition matrices fails to determine the factors of S(2p-l,p),
even for p = 2 (cf. Example 23.16), and very rapidly leads to further
ambiguities.
It seems to us that if a method is eventually devised for finding
the decomposition matrices of it will include information concerning
n
the order of the factors of each Specht module, as well as the multipli-
cities of the composition factors'. For this line of attack, the most
useful Theorems we know are Theorem 13.13, giving a basis of HomF S
and Corollary 17.18, describing as a kernel
It is unfortunate that these two results look rather ugly, and that the
notation which has to be used obscures the simplicity of their applica-
tion, but we embark upon the task of employing them.

Further, j 1, since vre have shown that n == m-l mod p£P (m) implies
that f p (n-l,m) + f p (n-l,m-l) = f p (n,In). Now the above congruence shows
that n + 1 contains m to base p if and only if n+l contains j to base p,
and n contains m to base p if and only if n contains j-l to base p, and
n contains m-l to base p if and only if n contains j to base p. Therefore,

For the moment, assume char F = o. There are two natural G Ld(F)-
invariant subspaces of ,.,(l)@ W(1), namely those spanned by
{1-t i l , ;

These are called the symmetric part of w(l)@ .,(1) and the second

26.1 DEFINITION The kth symmetric power of w(l) is the vector space
w(k) of homogeneous polynomials of degree k in commuting variables
where the sum is over all suffices jl,j2, ••• ,jk between 1 and d, and
g = (gij)·
The reader who is more familiar with the kth symmetric power as
the subspace of \il(l)@ •.• @ \il(l) (k times) spanned by certain
symmetrized vectors, may find it useful to know that the connection
between this and \il(k) is:
\il(k)* =
where * denotes the process of taking duals.
Corresponding to = in the representation theory of G ,
n
we consider the space ..• @ \il(lJ n). There is still a little more
preliminary work, though, before we come to this. It should,
be clear that it is useful to discuss vector spaces spanned by tabloids
with repeated entries (For the time being, it is best to forget any
intended interpretation in terms of the action of G Ld(F)).

Case 1 k o.
For i $ .* , d $ d+k $ d+ Ai-i. Examining the third determinantal
expression for f(d) above, we see that, for i $ i*, (d+k) divides all
the entries in the ith row of our matrix. Therefore, .* divides
f (d).
Case 2 k < O.
Here we claim that f(d) = det(Mk(d» where is a matrix whose
(i,j)th entry for all i, and for all j -k, is
Thus, our new matrix may be taken as 1'\-1 (d), and tile result claimed
is correct.

As with the Hook Formula for the dimension of the Specht module
SA, the formula of Theorem 26.19 is much more practical than the count
of semistandard tableaux when calculating dimensions of Weyl modules
