<p>An ordinary SpinSym table has character parameters, that is, a list of suitable labels corresponding to the rows of <code class="code">ordtbl</code> and therefore the irreducible ordinary characters of the underlying group. See <code class="code">CharacterParameters()</code> in the GAP Reference Manual.</p>

<h5>2.2-1 <span class="Heading">Parameters of ordinary characters</span></h5>

<p>In the following, `ordinary (spin) character' is used synonymously for `irreducible ordinary (spin) character'. It is well known that there is a bijection between the set of ordinary characters of <span class="SimpleMath">Sym(n)</span> and the set <span class="SimpleMath">P(n)</span> of all partitions of <span class="SimpleMath">n</span>. Recall that a partition of a natural number <span class="SimpleMath">n</span> is a list of non-increasing positive integers (its <em>parts</em>) that sum up to <span class="SimpleMath">n</span>. In this way, every ordinary character <span class="SimpleMath">χ</span> of <span class="SimpleMath">Sym(n)</span> has a label of the form <code class="code">[1,c]</code> where <code class="code">c</code> is a partition of <span class="SimpleMath">n</span>. The labels of the ordinary characters of <span class="SimpleMath">Alt(n)</span> are induced by Clifford theory as follows. Either the restriction <span class="SimpleMath">ψ=χ|_Alt(n)</span> of <span class="SimpleMath">χ</span> to <span class="SimpleMath">Alt(n)</span> is an ordinary character of <span class="SimpleMath">Alt(n)</span>, or <span class="SimpleMath">ψ</span> decomposes as the sum of two distinct ordinary characters <span class="SimpleMath">ψ_1</span> and <span class="SimpleMath">ψ_2</span>.</p>

<p>In the first case there is another ordinary character of <span class="SimpleMath">Sym(n)</span>, say <span class="SimpleMath">ξ</span> labelled by <code class="code">[1,d]</code>, such that the restriction of <span class="SimpleMath">ξ</span> to <span class="SimpleMath">Alt(n)</span> is equal to <span class="SimpleMath">ψ</span>. Moreover, the induced character of <span class="SimpleMath">Sym(n)</span> obtained from <span class="SimpleMath">ψ</span> decomposes as the sum of <span class="SimpleMath">χ</span> and <span class="SimpleMath">ξ</span>. Then <span class="SimpleMath">ψ</span> is labelled by <code class="code">[1,c]</code> or <code class="code">[1,d]</code>.</p>

<p>In the second case, both <span class="SimpleMath">ψ_1</span> and <span class="SimpleMath">ψ_2</span> induce irreducibly up to <span class="SimpleMath">χ</span>. Then <span class="SimpleMath">ψ_1</span> and <span class="SimpleMath">ψ_2</span> are labelled by <code class="code">[1,[c,'+']]</code> and <code class="code">[1,[c,'-']]</code>.</p>

<h5>2.2-2 <span class="Heading">Parameters of modular characters</span></h5>

<p>In the following, `<span class="SimpleMath">p</span>-modular (spin) character' is used synonymously for `irreducible p-modular (spin) character'. The set of <span class="SimpleMath">p</span>-modular characters of <span class="SimpleMath">Sym(n)</span> is parameterized by the set of all <span class="SimpleMath">p</span>-regular partitions of <span class="SimpleMath">n</span>. A partition is <span class="SimpleMath">p</span>-regular if no part is repeated more than <span class="SimpleMath">p-1</span> times. Now every <span class="SimpleMath">p</span>-modular character <span class="SimpleMath">χ</span> of <span class="SimpleMath">Sym(n)</span> has a label of the form <code class="code">[1,c]</code> where <code class="code">c</code> is a <span class="SimpleMath">p</span>-regular partition of <span class="SimpleMath">n</span>.</p>

<h4>2.3 <span class="Heading">Class parameters</span></h4>

<p>Let <code class="code">ct</code> be an ordinary SpinSym table. Then <code class="code">ct</code> has a list of class parameters, that is, a list of suitable labels corresponding to the columns of <code class="code">ct</code> and therefore the conjugacy classes of the underlying group. See <code class="code">ClassParameters()</code> in the GAP Reference Manual. If <code class="code">bt</code> is a Brauer table in characteristic <span class="SimpleMath">p</span> relative to <code class="code">ct</code>, its class parameters are inherited from <code class="code">ct</code> in correspondence with the <span class="SimpleMath">p</span>-regular conjugacy classes of the underlying group.</p>

<p>Let <span class="SimpleMath">P(n)</span> denote the set of partitions of <span class="SimpleMath">n</span>.</p>

<p>The conjugacy classes of <span class="SimpleMath">Sym(n)</span> are naturally parameterized by the cycle types of their elements, and each cycle type corresponds to a partition of <span class="SimpleMath">n</span>. Therefore a conjugacy class <span class="SimpleMath">C</span> of <span class="SimpleMath">Sym(n)</span> is characterized by its <em>type</em> <span class="SimpleMath">c</span> in <span class="SimpleMath">P(n)</span>. The corresponding entry in the list of class parameters is <code class="code">[1,c]</code>. Assume that <span class="SimpleMath">C</span> is a subset of <span class="SimpleMath">Alt(n)</span>. Then <span class="SimpleMath">C</span> is also a conjugacy class of <span class="SimpleMath">Alt(n)</span> if and only if not all parts of <span class="SimpleMath">c</span> are odd and pairwise distinct. Otherwise, <span class="SimpleMath">C</span> splits as the union of two distinct <span class="SimpleMath">Alt(n)</span>-classes of the same size, <span class="SimpleMath">C^+</span> of type <span class="SimpleMath">c^+</span> and <span class="SimpleMath">C^-</span> of type <span class="SimpleMath">c^-</span>. The corresponding entries in the list of class parameters are <code class="code">[1,[c,'+']]</code> and <code class="code">[1,[c,'-']]</code>, respectively.</p>

<p>If <var class="Arg">type</var> is <code class="code">"Symmetric"</code> then the output is computed by means of Clifford's theory from the character tables of 2.(Sym(k)×Alt(l)), 2.(Alt(k)×Alt(l)), and 2.(Alt(k)×Sym(l)) (see [2, Section 5.2]). These `ingredients' are computed and then stored in the attribute <code class="code">SpinSymIngredients</code> so they can be accessed during the construction (and for the construction of a relative Brauer table too, see <code class="func">SpinSymBrauerTableOfMaximalYoungSubgroup</code> (<a href="chap2.html#X849A37657F53BAE3"><span class="RefLink">2.4-2</span></a>)).</p>

<p>However, we use a faster method that builds up the table from scratch, using the appropriate component tables as ingredients (for example, the generic character tables of <span class="SimpleMath">2.Sym(k)</span> and <span class="SimpleMath">2.Alt(l)</span> ). In this way we can easily build up a suitable list of class parameters that are needed to determine the class fusion in the construction of <var class="Arg">type</var> <code class="code">"Symmetric"</code>.</p>
