We analyze the structure of the algebra $\mathbb{K}\langle\mathbf{x}\rangle^{\mathfrak{S}_n}$ of symmetric polynomials in non-commuting variables in so far as it relates to $\mathbb{K}[\mathbf{x}]^{\mathfrak{S}_n}$, its commutative counterpart. Using the "place-action" of the symmetric group, we are able to realize the latter as the invariant polynomials inside the former. We discover a tensor product decomposition of $\mathbb{K}\langle\mathbf{x}\rangle^{\mathfrak{S}_n}$ analogous to the classical theorems of Chevalley, Shephard-Todd on finite reflection groups. Résumé. Nous analysons la structure de l'algèbre $\mathbb{K}\langle\mathbf{x}\rangle^{\mathfrak{S}_n}$ des polynômes symétriques en des variables non-commutatives pour obtenir des analogues des résultats classiques concernant la structure de l'anneau $\mathbb{K}[\mathbf{x}]^{\mathfrak{S}_n}$ des polynômes symétriques en des variables commutatives. Plus précisément, au moyen de "l'action par positions", on réalise $\mathbb{K}[\mathbf{x}]^{\mathfrak{S}_n}$ comme sous-module de $\mathbb{K}\langle\mathbf{x}\rangle^{\mathfrak{S}_n}$. On découvre alors une nouvelle décomposition de $\mathbb{K}\langle\mathbf{x}\rangle^{\mathfrak{S}_n}$ comme produit tensorial, obtenant ainsi un analogues des théorèmes classiques de Chevalley et Shephard-Todd.

International audience We analyze the structure of the algebra $\mathbb{K}\langle \mathbf{x}\rangle^{\mathfrak{S}_n}$ of symmetric polynomials in non-commuting variables in so far as it relates to $\mathbb{K}[\mathbf{x}]^{\mathfrak{S}_n}$, its commutative counterpart. Using the "place-action'' of the symmetric group, we are able to realize the latter as the invariant polynomials inside the former. We discover a tensor product decomposition of $\mathbb{K}\langle \mathbf{x}\rangle^{\mathfrak{S}_n}$ analogous to the classical theorems of Chevalley, Shephard-Todd on finite reflection groups. In the case $|\mathbf{x}|= \infty$, our techniques simplify to a form readily generalized to many other familiar pairs of combinatorial Hopf algebras.

The invariants of finite-dimensional representations of simple Lie algebras, such as even-degree indices and anomaly numbers, are considered in the context of the non-crystallographic finite reflection groups H2, H3 and H4. Using a representation-orbit replacement, the definitions and properties of the indices are formulated for individual orbits of the examined groups. The indices of orders two and four of the tensor product of k orbits are determined. Using the branching rules for the non-crystallographic Coxeter groups, the embedding index is defined similarly to the Dynkin index of a representation. Moreover, since the definition of the indices can be applied to any orbit of non-crystallographic type, the algorithm allowing to search for the orbits of smaller radii contained within any considered one is presented for the Coxeter groups H2 and H3. The geometrical structures of nested polytopes are exemplified.

AbstractIwahori-Hecke algebras for the infinite series of complex reflection groups G(r, p, n) were constructed recently in the work of Ariki and Koike [AK], Broué andMalle [BM], and Ariki [Ari]. In this paper we give Murnaghan-Nakayama type formulas for computing the irreducible characters of these algebras. Our method is a generalization of that in our earlier paper [HR] in whichwe derivedMurnaghan-Nakayama rules for the characters of the Iwahori-Hecke algebras of the classical Weyl groups. In both papers we have been motivated by C. Greene [Gre], who gave a new derivation of the Murnaghan-Nakayama formula for irreducible symmetric group characters by summing diagonal matrix entries in Young's seminormal representations. We use the analogous representations of the Iwahori-Hecke algebra of G(r, p, n) given by Ariki and Koike [AK] and Ariki [Ari].

We consider the symmetric group $S_n$-module of the polynomial ring with $m$ sets of $n$ commuting variables and $m'$ sets of $n$ anti-commuting variables and show that the multiplicity of an irreducible indexed by the partition $\lambda$ (a partition of $n$) is the number of multiset tableaux of shape $\lambda$ satisfying certain column and row strict conditions.  We also present a finite generating set for the ring of $S_n$ invariant polynomials of this ring.
