Abstract: | Suppose ? and β are partitions of n. If ? ? β, a bijection is given between positive pairs of rim hook tableaux of the same shape λ and content β and ?, respectively, and negative pairs of rim hook tableaux of some other shape μ and content β and ?, respectively. If ? = β, the bijection is between positive pairs and either negative pairs or permutations of hooks. The bijection, in the latter case, is a generalization of the Schensted correspondence between pairs of standard tableaux and permutations. If the irreducible characters of Sn are interpreted combinatorially using the Murnaghan-Nakayama formula, these bijections prove where ? = 1j12j2…. |
