Abstract

The branching rule for spin irreducible representations of symmetric groups gives rise to a Markov chain on the spin dual (S~n)spin(\widetilde{\mathfrak{S}}_n)^\wedge_{\mathrm{spin}} of symmetric group Sn\mathfrak{S}_n through restriction and induction of spin irreducible representations. This further produces a continuous time random walk (Xs(n))s0(X_s^{(n)})_{s\geqq 0} on (S~n)spin(\widetilde{\mathfrak{S}}_n)^\wedge_{\mathrm{spin}} by introducing an appropriate pausing time. Taking diffusive scaling limit for these random walks under s=tns=tn and 1/n1/\sqrt{n} reduction as nn\to\infty, we consider a concentration phenomenon at each macroscopic time tt. Since an element of (S~n)spin(\widetilde{\mathfrak{S}}_n)^\wedge_{\mathrm{spin}} is regarded as a strict partition of nn with ±1\pm 1 indices, the limit shapes of profiles of strict partitions appear. In this paper, we give a framework in which initial concentration at t=0t=0 is propagated to concentration at any t>0t>0. We thus obtain the limit shape ωt\omega_t depending on macroscopic time tt, and describe the time evolution by using devices in free probability theory. Included is the case where Kerov's transition measure has non-compact support but determinate moment problem. A spin version of Biane's formula for spin Jucys--Murphy elements is shown, which plays an important role in our analysis.
