The single-column Young diagram has exactly one standard Young tableau, so V(1n) has dimension one. Consecutive labels are in one column, and the Young seminormal form gives si​w=−w for every adjacent transposition si​. These generators determine the representation, and the sign representation sends every one of them to −1. Consequently
V(1n)≅sgn.​
(1)
At n=1 there are no adjacent generators and both modules are the trivial representation.
