Review text

The survey under review brings together various aspects and applications of the theory of representations of the symmetric group both in the ordinary and in the modular case. It starts with a discussion of the known facts and open problems (principally in the modular case) concerning multiplicities and dimensions of the respective irreducible modules. Then the author pays attention to the analogues of the branching rule in the modular case and its various applications and ``satelite results. Furthermore the ideals of the group algebras of the finitary symmetric groups are considered as well as their use in the theory of algebras with polynomial identities. Especially the extensive bibliography should be noted, it consists of 48 titles. Thus the reader can find the proofs of the results mentioned in the survey (they are, in general, omitted). Undoubtedly this survey will be quite important for the specialists in the area as well as for algebraists working on PI theory, and algebraic groups. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0897.00029].
