Alternating-group conjecture for diamond-shaped tableau groups

At least 6 years old · documented by

Let GλG_\lambda be the group associated with a Young diagram λ\lambda, and let dim⁡λ\dim\lambda denote the dimension of the corresponding representation. Consider the diagrams λ∈{(4,22),(6,3),(42,1)}\lambda\in\{(4,2^2),(6,3),(4^2,1)\}, for which the computed order of GλG_\lambda is (dim⁡λ)!/2(\dim\lambda)!/2. Alternating-group conjecture. In these cases, GλG_\lambda is isomorphic to the alternating group Adim⁡λA_{\dim\lambda}. These cases arise among the computational results for diagrams with at most nine cells; the assertion is based on the computed group orders and remains stated as a conjecture in the source.
