SpechtModule :: characterTable

characterTable -- returns the character table of the symmetric group

Synopsis

Description

This method construct the irreducible characters of Sn. The method works by recursively calculating the character tables for the permutation modules of Sn. Then applying Gram-Schimdt algorithm to this characters using the inner product of characters we obtain the irreducible characters of Sn
