Journal of Mathematical Sciences Aims and scope Submit manuscript

With an arbitrary finite graph having a special form of 2-intervals (a diamond-shaped graph) we associate a subgroup of a symmetric group and a representation of this subgroup; state a series of problems on such groups and their representations; and present results of some computer simulations. The case we are most interested in is that of the Young graph and subgroups generated by natural involutions of Young tableaux. In particular, the classical Young’s orthogonal form can be regarded as a deformation of our construction. We also state asymptotic problems for infinite groups.
