Schur Algebras and Representation Theory

Klappentext This is the first comprehensive text in this important and active area of research. Zusammenfassung The Schur algebra is an algebraic system providing a link between the representation theory of the symmetric and general linear groups. The approach is combinatorial where possible! making the presentation accessible to graduate students. This is the first comprehensive text in this important and active area of research; it will be of interest to all research workers in representation theory. Inhaltsverzeichnis Introduction; 1.
