The homology of the Brauer algebras

TL;DR: In this paper, the homology of Brauer algebras, interpreted as appropriate Tor-groups, was investigated and it was shown that it is closely related to the symmetric group.

The Hopf structure of symmetric group characters as symmetric functions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduced inhomogeneous bases of the ring of symmetric functions and proved product and coproduct formulae for these bases, and gave the transition coefficients between the elementary symmetric function and the irreducible character basis.

$\mathrm{FI}_G$-modules, orbit configuration spaces, and complex reflection groups

TL;DR: The notion of character polynomials was first defined and explored by Church-Ellenberg-Farb and Wilson as mentioned in this paper, who developed a notion of representation stability which they called $K_0$-stability even when $G$ is infinite virtually polycyclic.

Representation stability, secondary stability, and polynomial functors.

TL;DR: In this article, a general representation stability result for polynomial coefficient systems with twisted coefficients was proved, which gave two generalizations of classical homological stability theorems for twisted coefficients.

Splitting behavior of S n -polynomials

TL;DR: For a fixed finite set of primes S, this article analyzed the probability that a random, monic, degree n polynomial with coefficients in a box of side B satisfies: (i) f(x) is irreducible over Open image in new window, with splitting field with Galois group Sn; (ii) Disc(f) is relatively prime to all primes in S; and (iii) f (x) has a prescribed splitting type at each prime p in S.
