Multiplicity-free permutation representations of the alternating groups

Abstract

dc:description

A transitive permutation representation of a finite group G is said to be multiplicity-free if each irreducible constituent of the associated permutation character of G occurs with multiplicity one. If H is a subgroup of G, then G acts naturally on the set of cosets of H. This action is transitive and the associated permutation character is given by the character 1$\rm \sbsp{H}{G}$ of G induced from the trivial character of H. If 1$\rm \sbsp{H}{G}$ is multiplicity-free, then H is said to be a multiplicity-free subgroup of G.
