 Solution

The nonzero homomorphism $\theta$ cannot kill $e(t)$, because the Specht module is generated by the translates of this polytabloid. Equivariance and part d(i) therefore giveThus $b_t$ acts nontrivially on $M^{\mu }/V$, and hence on $M^{\mu }$. Some $\mu$-tabloid $\{v\}$ must satisfy $b_t\{v\}\ne 0$. Fact 2 now says that $\lambda$ dominates $\mu$ in the dominance order on partitions.
