Character of a Young permutation module
ID: character-of-a-young-permutation-module
A tabloid is fixed by a permutation exactly when each of its cycles lies wholly within one row. Assigning the distinct length- cycles to rows gives the displayed coefficient. More explicitly, sum over nonnegative integers with and . Equal-length rows remain distinguished. Thus the character counts fixed ordered row sets, rather than unordered set partitions.
