Projective modules for the symmetric group and Young's seminormal form
Abstract
We study the representation theory of the symmetric group $S_n$ in positive characteristic $p$. Using features of the LLT-algorithm we give a conjectural description of the projective cover $P(\lambda)$ of the simple module $D(\lambda)$ where $\lambda$ is a $p$-restricted partition such that all ladders of the corresponding ladder partition are of order less than $p$. Inspired by the recent theory of Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier algebras we explain an algorithm that allows us to verify this conjectural description for $n \leq 15$, at least.
