Abstract

When the isotypic subspaces of a representation are viewed as the eigenspaces of a symmetric linear transformation, isotypic projections may be achieved as eigenspace projections and computed using the Lanczos iteration. In this paper, we show how this approach gives rise to an efficient isotypic projection method for permutation representations of distance transitive graphs and the symmetric group.
