Abstract

Let χμλ\chi^{\lambda}_{\mu} be the value of the irreducible character χλ\chi^{\lambda} of the Hecke algebra of the symmetric group on the conjugacy class of type μ\mu. The usual Murnaghan-Nakayama rule provides an iterative algorithm based on reduction of the lower partition μ\mu. In this paper, we establish a dual Murnaghan-Nakayama rule for Hecke algebras of type AA using vertex operators by applying reduction to the upper partition λ\lambda. We formulate an explicit recursion of the dual Murnaghan-Nakayama rule by employing the combinatorial model of ``brick tabloids", which refines a previous result by two of us (J. Algebra 598 (2022), 24--47).
