Etymology: Named after British mathematician Alfred Young. Head templates: {{en-noun}} Young symmetrizer (plural Young symmetrizers)
  1. (mathematics) An element of the group algebra of the symmetric group, constructed in such a way that, for the homomorphism from the group algebra to the endomorphisms of a vector space V^(⊗n) obtained from the action of S_n on V^(⊗n) by permutation of indices, the image of the endomorphism determined by that element corresponds to an irreducible representation of the symmetric group over the complex numbers.
