这是一份UCSD的 MATH 251 representation theory作业代写成功案例
Problem 1. Let $G$ be a finite group. Show that $f \in L^{2}(G)$ satisfies $f(g)=1 /|G|$ for all $g \in G$ if and only if the Fourier transform satisfies
$f^{F}(X)=0$ for all non-trivial irreducible matrix representations $X$ of $G$,
and
$f^{F}\left(X_{\text {triv }}\right)=1$ where $X_{\text {triv }}$ is the 1-dimensional trivial matrix representation of $G$.
(Hint: use Fourier inversion to show one direction. To show the other, demonstrate that it is sufficient to prove this for only unitary representations $X$ and then use Schur orthagonality.)
Using the definition of group convolution, prove that for any finite group $G$, we have $u * u=u$.
(It is not required in order to solve the problem, but this can be interpreted probabilistically: if $h$ and $k$ are random elements of the group chosen according to the uniform probsbility measure, then this result says that the product $h k$ will be uniformly distributed in the group.)
\begin{prob}
Problem 3. Show that if $p$ is any probability measure on $\mathbb{Z}(N)$ and $p * p=u$, then we must have $p=u$, where as above $u$ is the uniform probability measure on $\mathbb{Z}(N)$.
(Hint: take the Fourier transform of $p+p$ with respect to the 1-dimensional irreducible representations of $\mathbb{Z}(N)$. Show that $p^{F}(X)=0$ for $X$ irreducible unless $X$ is the trivial representation.)
(It is not required in order to solve the problem, but this can be interpreted probabilistically: you will have shown for any probsbility measure $p$ on $\mathbb{Z}(N)$ which is not uniform to begin with, if $a$ and $b$ are randomly chosen aocording to $p$ then the sum $a+b$ will also not be uniform.)
Problem 4. Let $p$ be the probability measure on $S_{3}$ given by $p(\varepsilon)=1 / 6, p((12))=1 / 6, p((13))=2 / 9, p((23))=1 / 9, p((123))=2 / 9, p((132))=1 / 9 .$
a) Compute $p^{F}\left(X_{1}\right), p^{F}\left(X_{2}\right)$, and $p^{F}\left(X_{3}\right)$, where $X_{1}$ is the 1-dimensional trivial representation of $S_{3}, X_{2}$ is the 1-dimensionsl sign representation of $S_{3}$, and $X_{3}$ is the 2-dimensional standard representation computed in Problem 1b) of Homework 2 .
b) Show that $p * p=u$ where $u$ is the uniform probsbility messure on $S_{\mathrm{s}}$. (Hint: use the computation in part a) and Problem 1.)
c) Say a sentence about why the proof in Problem 3 does not apply for $S_{3}$.
(It is not required in order to solve the problem, but this can be interpreted probabilistically: you’ve found a probability messure $p$ on $S_{3}$ which is not uniform, but such that if $\pi$ and $\sigma$ are chosen according to $p$, the composition $\pi \sigma$ will be uniformly distributed. Said another way: there is a random shuffle which is not itself uniform, but if the random shuffle is done twice the result is uniform!)
Problem 5. Let $M^{\lambda}$ be the permutation module associated to a partition $\lambda$.
a) Show that the characters of $M^{\lambda}$ are integer-valued functions for all partitions $\lambda$.
b) Show that every irreducible character of $S_{n}$ is an integer-valued function. (Hint: consider the modules $M^{\lambda}$ in turm, with $\lambda$ taken in reverse lexicographic order. Use the decomposition of $M^{\lambda}$ into a direct sum of Specht modules, with $S^{l}$ appearing eractly once in the direct sum.)
Problem 6. Rocall the notation that a partition $\lambda=\left(\lambda_{1}, \lambda_{2}, \ldots, \lambda_{\ell}\right)$ can be written $\lambda=$ $1^{m_{1}} 2^{m_{2}} \ldots n^{m_{n}}$ if $\lambda$ has $m_{1}$ parts equal to $1, m_{2}$ parts equal to 2 , etc. For $\lambda \vdash n$ let $\phi^{\lambda}$ be the character of the permutation module $M^{\lambda}$ and let $\pi \in S_{n}$ have cycle type $\lambda$. Show that
$$
\phi^{\lambda}(\pi)=m_{1} ! m_{2} ! \cdots m_{n} \text { ! }
$$
(Hint: this can be done directly by reasoning combinatorially, but it can also be done using the formula proved in class for the character of an induced representation. You may use in your homework the fact that that the permutation module $M^{\lambda}$ corresponds to the trivial representation of the subgroup $S_{\lambda}=S_{\left[1, \ldots, \lambda_{1}\right]} \times \cdots \times S_{\left[\lambda_{1}+\ldots+\lambda_{k-1}+1, \ldots, \lambda_{1}+\ldots+\lambda_{\varepsilon}\right]}$ inducod to $S_{n} ;$ see Sec. 2.1 of Sagan.)
Problem 7. a) Compute the partition $\lambda$ and the Young tableaux $(P, Q)$ obtained by applying the Robinson-Schensted algorithm to the permutation $\sigma=654839217 \in S_{9}$ (written in one-line notation).
b) Apply the inverse Robinson-Schensted slgorithm to the pair of Young tablesux
$$
P=\begin{array}{|l|l|l|l|}
\hline 1 & 4 & 7 & 8 \
\hline 2 & 6 & 9 & \
\hline 3 & & \
\cline { 1 } 5 & & & \
\hline
\end{array}
$$
to find the associated permutation $\sigma \in S_{g}$. (Write $\sigma$ in one-line notation.)

Prerequisites: A solid understanding and familiarity with basic concepts in algebra (groups, homomorphisms etc) and analysis (convergence, norms) as well as a good understanding of linear algebra. Ask me if in doubt.
Material: This is a continuation of Lie Groups 251B, taught in Winter 2022. We will first concentrate on the representation theory of semisimple Lie agebras. This will include a proof of the character formula, decomposition of tensor products of representations and duality theorems (such as Schur-Weyl duality, Howe duality). Further topics may include real non-compact Lie groups, symmetric spaces and q-deformations of universal enveloping algebras, known as quantum groups. There will not be a fixed course book. The books and lecture notes listed below should cover most of the material of the course. For material not covered in these books, we plan to make other resources available.
