Elementary-divisor conjecture for critical groups of induced representations

From papers

Let AA be an abelian group of order rr, let S\mathfrak{S} denote the tower of symmetric groups, and consider the differential tower of groups ASA\wr\mathfrak{S}. For knk\leq n, let V(UkDk)nV(U^kD^k)_n be the induced representation corresponding to UkDkU^kD^k, and let pjp_j denote the rank sizes. Write eie_i for the non-unit elementary divisors of the critical group K(V(DkUk)nk)K(V(D^kU^k)_{n-k}). Elementary-divisor conjecture. The critical group

K(V(UkDk)n)=K(IndASnkASn\mathbbm1)K(V(U^kD^k)_n)=K\left(\operatorname{Ind}_{A\wr\mathfrak{S}_{n-k}}^{A\wr\mathfrak{S}_n}\mathbbm{1}\right)

is given, as a list of elementary divisors, by

(1pnk,(rkn!(nk)!)pn2pnk+pn2k,rkn!(nk)!ei),\left(1^{p_{n-k}},\left(r^{k}\frac{n!}{(n-k)!}\right)^{p_n-2p_{n-k}+p_{n-2k}},r^{k}\frac{n!}{(n-k)!}e_i\right),

where exponents involving rank sizes denote multiplicities. This predicts the precise elementary-divisor structure of these critical groups in the wreath-product differential tower.
