Abstract
We develop a new approach for the computation of the Mullineux involution for the symmetric group and its Hecke algebra using the notion of crystal isomorphism and the Iwahori-Matsumoto involution for the affine Hecke algebra of type \(A\). As a consequence, we obtain several new elementary combinatorial algorithms for its computation, one of which is equivalent to Xu algorithm (and thus Mullineux original algorithm). We thus obtain a simple interpretation of these algorithms and a new elementary proof that they indeed compute the Mullineux involution.Mathematics Subject Classifications: 20C08, 05E10Keywords: Symmetric group, Mullineux involution, crystal graph
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Combinatorial Theory publishes original mathematical research concerned with theoretical and physical aspects of the study of finite and discrete structures in all branches of science. Series A is concerned primarily with structures, designs, and applications of combinatorics and is a valuable tool for mathematicians and computer scientists.
