Algebras of conjugacy classes in symmetric groups

Yury A. Neretin

Abstract

In 1999 V. Ivanov and S. Kerov observed that structure constants of algebras of conjugacy classes of symmetric groups $S_n$ admit a stabilization (in a non-obvious sense) as $n\to \infty$. We extend their construction to a class of pairs of groups $G\supset K$ and algebras of conjugacy classes of $G$ with respect to $K$. In our basic example $G$ is a product of symmetric groups, $G=S_n \times S_n$, $K$ is the diagonal subgroup $S_n$.

Theorem \oldthetheorem

Let ${\,{\overline{\overline {g\newline}}}\,}$, ${\,{\overline{\overline {h\newline}}}\,}$, ${\,{\overline{\overline {r\newline}}}\,}$ range in the disjoint union $\coprod_{j=0}^\infty G_j/\!\!/K_j$. Then there are non-negative integers $a_{{\,{\overline{\overline {g\newline}}}\,},{\,{\overline{\ove $\bullet$ Consider a linear space $\mathcal{B}$ with a basis consisting of symbols $A[{\,{\overline
