Abstract
In \cite{[CZ]}, Cohen and Zemel showed that for a partition , the dimension of the irreducible representation of corresponding to the partition is a polynomial of degree in , whose coefficients in the binomial basis count standard Young tableaux of shape with special restrictions. In this paper, we generalize their results on the representation's dimension to character values on arbitrary cycles.
