Mathematical Sciences Seminar - Factorizations in the symmetric group and induction methods.
When:
—
Venue:
Birkbeck Main Building, Malet Street
No booking required
We give a new method for evaluating the structure constants of the centre of the group algebra of the symmetric group. I will begin with an introduction to characters of the symmetric group and end with an application to some recent work of Bernardi, Du, Morales and Stanley on separation probabilities for products of permutations.
