The major index polynomial for conjugacy classes of permutations

چکیده
Wachs, M.L. The major index polynomial for conjugacy classes of permutations, Discrete Mathematics 91 (1991) 283-293. Garsia (1988) gives a remarkably simple expression for the major index enumerator for permutations of a fixed cycle type evaluated at a primitive root of unity. He asks for a direct combinatorial proof of this identity. Here we give such a combinatorial derivation.

On the Regular Power Graph on the Conjugacy Classes of Finite Groups
emph{The (undirected) power graph on the conjugacy classes} $mathcal{P_C}(G)$ of a group $G$ is a simple graph in which the vertices are the conjugacy classes of $G$ and two distinct vertices $C$ and $C'$ are adjacent in $mathcal{P_C}(G)$ if one is a subset of a power of the other. In this paper, we describe groups whose associated graphs are $k$-regular for $k=5,6$.
متن کاملCOMPUTING THE PRODUCTS OF CONJUGACY CLASSES FOR SPECIFIC FINITE GROUPS
Suppose $G$ is a finite group, $A$ and $B$ are conjugacy classes of $G$ and $eta(AB)$ denotes the number of conjugacy classes contained in $AB$. The set of all $eta(AB)$ such that $A, B$ run over conjugacy classes of $G$ is denoted by $eta(G)$.The aim of this paper is to compute $eta(G)$, $G in { D_{2n}, T_{4n}, U_{6n}, V_{8n}, SD_{8n}}$ or $G$ is a decomposable group of order $2pq$, a group of...
متن کاملSome connections between powers of conjugacy classes and degrees of irreducible characters in solvable groups
Let $G$ be a finite group. We say that the derived covering number of $G$ is finite if and only if there exists a positive integer $n$ such that $C^n=G'$ for all non-central conjugacy classes $C$ of $G$. In this paper we characterize solvable groups $G$ in which the derived covering number is finite.
متن کاملO ct 1 99 9 Affine shuffles , shuffles with cuts , and patience sorting
Type A affine shuffles are compared with riffle shuffles followed by a cut. Although these probability measures on the symmetric group Sn are different, they both satisfy a convolution property. Strong evidence is given that when the underlying parameter q satisfies gcd(n, q−1) = 1, the induced measures on conjugacy classes of the symmetric group coincide. This gives rise to interesting combina...
متن کاملFINITE GROUPS WITH FIVE NON-CENTRAL CONJUGACY CLASSES
Let G be a finite group and Z(G) be the center of G. For a subset A of G, we define kG(A), the number of conjugacy classes of G that intersect A non-trivially. In this paper, we verify the structure of all finite groups G which satisfy the property kG(G-Z(G))=5, and classify them.
