In this paper we are concerned with the representation theory of the symmetric groupsover a field K of characteristic p. Every field is a splitting field for the symmetric groups. Consequently, in order to study the modular representation theory of these groups, it is sufficient to work over the prime fields. However, we take K to be an arbitrary field of characteristic p, since the presentation of the results is not affected by this choice. Sn denotes the group of permutations of {x1, …, xn], where x1,…,xn are independent indeterminates over K. The group algebra of Sn with coefficients in K is denoted by Фn.
