Let $S_\lambda$ denote the Specht module defined by Dipper and James for the Iwahori-Hecke algebra $\mathscr{H}_n$ of the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$. When $e=2$ we determine the decomposability of all Specht modules corresponding to…
This paper studies the vertices, in the sense defined by J. A. Green, of Specht modules for symmetric groups. The main theorem gives, for each indecomposable non-projective Specht module, a large subgroup contained in one of its vertices. A…
We study the decomposability of Specht modules labelled by bihooks, bipartitions with a hook in each component, for the Iwahori--Hecke algebra of type $B$. In all characteristics, we determine a large family of decomposable Specht modules,…
We continue the study of Specht modules labelled by hook bipartitions for the Iwahori--Hecke algebra of type $B$ with $e\in\{3,4,\dots\}$ via the cyclotomic Khovanov--Lauda--Rouquier algebra $\mathscr{H}_n^{\Lambda}$. Over an arbitrary…
Let $p$ be a prime and $\mathbb{F}$ a field of characteristic $p$, and let $\mathcal{H}_n$ denote the Iwahori--Hecke algebra of the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$ over $\mathbb{F}$ at $q=-1$. We prove that there are only finitely many…
We consider the problem of classifying irreducible Specht modules for the Iwahori-Hecke algebra of type B with parameters Q,q. We solve this problem completely in the case where q is not a root of unity, and in the case q=-1 we reduce the…
We define an extension of the affine Brauer algebra, the type B/C affine Brauer algebra. This new algebra contains the hyperoctahedral group and it naturally acts on $END_K(X \otimes V^{\otimes k})$ for Orthogonal and Symplectic groups.…
We consider vertices, a notion originating in local representation theory of finite groups, for the category $\mathcal{O}$ of a rational Cherednik algebra and prove the analogue of the Dipper-Du Conjecture for Hecke algebras of symmetric…
A celebrated result of Farahat and Higman constructs an algebra $\mathrm{FH}$ which "interpolates" the centres $Z(\mathbb{Z}S_n)$ of group algebras of the symmetric groups $S_n$. We extend these results from symmetric group algebras to type…
In this paper we study the branching problems for Hecke algebra $\H(D_n)$ of type $D_n$. We explicitly describe the decompositions of the socle of the restriction of each irreducible $\H(D_n)$-representation to $\H(D_{n-1})$ into…
We consider the core blocks corresponding to the Hecke algebras of type B over a field of arbitrary characteristic. To each core block B, we associate two non-negative integers which determine the indexing of the Specht modules and simple…
Let ${\mathcal H}_{q}(d)$ be the Iwahori-Hecke algebra for the symmetric group, where $q$ is a primitive $l$th root of unity. In this paper we develop a theory of support varieties which detects natural homological properties such as the…
In this paper we study the vertices of indecomposable Specht modules for symmetric groups. For any given indecomposable non-projective Specht module, the main theorem of the article describes a family of p-subgroups contained in its vertex.…
Previously, the last two authors found large families of decomposable Specht modules labelled by bihooks, over the Iwahori--Hecke algebra of type $B$. In most cases we conjectured that these were the only decomposable Specht modules…
In [Boltje,Hartmann: Permutation resolutions for Specht modules, J. Algebraic Combin. 34 (2011), 141-162], a chain complex was constructed in a combinatorial way which conjecturally is a resolution of the (dual of the) integral Specht…
The complexity of a block of a symmetric algebra can be measured by the notion of defect, a numerical datum associated with each of the simple modules contained in the block. Geck showed that the defect is a block invariant for…
Brundan, Kleshchev and Wang equip the Specht modules $S_{\lambda}$ over the cyclotomic Khovanov--Lauda--Rouquier algebra $\mathscr{H}_n^{\Lambda}$ with a homogeneous $\mathbb{Z}$-graded basis. In this paper we begin the study of graded…
We aim to construct an element satisfying Hemmer's combinatorial criterion for $H^1(\mathfrak{S}_n, S^\lambda)$ to be non-vanishing. In the process, we discover an unexpected and surprising link between the combinatorial theory of integral…
Let p be a prime number, and F a nonarchimedean local field of residual characteristic p. We explore the interaction between the pro-p-Iwahori-Hecke algebras of the group GL_n(F) and its derived subgroup SL_n(F). Using the interplay between…
Suppose $\mu$ is a partition of $n$ and $\lambda$ a composition of $n$, and let $S^\mu$, $M^\lambda$ denote the Specht module and permutation module defined by Dipper and James for the Iwahori--Hecke algebra $\mathscr{H}_n$ of the symmetric…
