Application of Marks to Computation of Ranks and Subdegrees of the Symmetric Group Acting on Ordered Pairs and on Ordered Triples

Abstract

Ranks and subdegrees can be computed using combinatorial arguments, the Cauchy-Frobenius lemma and use of the concept of marks. However the concept of Marks has been given very little attention. In this paper we will apply the concept of marks to compute the ranks and subdegrees of the symmetric...........
