Abstract
Let X be an arbitrary set and denote for each p ≧ 1 by X p the set of ordered p-tuples (x1,...,x p ), xi ∈ X. Let
be a map from X p to a second set, Y. Then every permutation σ∈S p determines a new map
defined by
.
In this chapter, except for the last paragraph, all vector spaces will be defined over a fixed but arbitrarily chosen field Γ of characteristic 0.
