Abstract

We construct a class ΘR\Theta_{\mathscr{R}} of homomorphisms from a Specht module SZλS_{\mathbb{Z}}^{\lambda} to a signed permutation module MZ(αβ)M_{\mathbb{Z}}(\alpha|\beta) which generalises James's construction of homomorphisms whose codomain is a Young permutation module. We show that any ϕHomZSn(SZλ,MZ(αβ))\phi \in \operatorname{Hom}_{{\mathbb{Z}}\mathfrak{S}_{n}}\big(S_{\mathbb{Z}}^\lambda, M_{\mathbb{Z}}(\alpha|\beta)\big) lies in the Q\mathbb{Q}-span of Θsstd\Theta_{\text{sstd}}, a subset of ΘR\Theta_{\mathscr{R}} corresponding to semistandard λ\lambda-tableaux of type (αβ)(\alpha|\beta). We also study the conditions for which ΘsstdF\Theta^{\mathbb{F}}_{\mathrm{sstd}} - a subset of HomFSn(SFλ,MF(αβ))\operatorname{Hom}_{\mathbb{F}\mathfrak{S}_{n}}\big(S_{\mathbb{F}}^\lambda,M_{\mathbb{F}}(\alpha|\beta)\big) induced by Θsstd\Theta_{\mathrm{sstd}} - is linearly independent, and show that it is a basis for HomFSn(SFλ,MF(αβ))\operatorname{Hom}_{\mathbb{F}\mathfrak{S}_{n}}\big(S_{\mathbb{F}}^\lambda,M_{\mathbb{F}}(\alpha|\beta)\big) when FSn\mathbb{F}\mathfrak{S}_{n} is semisimple.
