Repeated coordinates contribute zero. Sorting a distinct tuple and subtracting the staircase gives a partition of m, and its m! orderings have identical squared summands. The beta-set hook-product identity turns each summand into (dimSλ/m!)2. Summing and using the Artin–Wedderburn theorem for CSm​ gives m!∑λ⊢m​(dimSλ)2/(m!)2=1. This is a normalized group algebra dimension identity.
