Representation Theory
Part II, 2006

(a) Let GG be S4S_{4}, the symmetric group on four letters. Determine the character table of GG.

[Begin by listing the conjugacy classes and their orders.]

(b) For each irreducible representation VV of G=S4G=S_{4}, decompose ResA4S4(V)\operatorname{Res}_{A_{4}}^{S_{4}}(V) into irreducible representations. You must justify your answer.
