 Young seminormal form

Let $T$ be a standard Young tableau, $s_i=(ii+1)$, and $d=c_T(i+1)-c_T(i)$. A suitable Gelfand–Tsetlin basis has, for an admissible pair $R=s_{i}T$ with tableau length increasing,For a nonadmissible swap the scalar is $+1$ in a row and $-1$ in a column. The diagonal coefficient follows from the Young–Jucys–Murphy element relation $s_i{X}_i{s}_i+s_i=X_{i+1}$, and $s_i^2=1$ forces the product of off-diagonal coefficients. One global normalization is $v_T=P_T{\pi }_T{v}_{T_0}$ from the row-reading tableau: a reduced admissible path makes this vector nonzero and gives coefficient one on every length-increasing edge.
