Primes

• Cycle
  • Loop integrals and conservation: the circuit-law sum around a loop, the line integral around a closed contour, and conservation of circulation share the fact that a cycle imposes a constraint on the contents of the loop. Cycles versus boundaries: homology measures closed-but-not-bounding cycles, a pattern that recurs wherever a notion of "closed but not bounding" is needed, including the structure of conservation laws. Cycle index: the cycle structure of a group action determines orbit counts under symmetry.

Domain-specific

• Murnaghan–Nakayama rule
  • Partitions index both irreducible characters and conjugacy cycle types, signs depend on rim-hook height, and the result is a recursive character computation rather than a general branching rule.
• Robinson–Schensted–Knuth correspondence
  • RSK repeatedly inserts symbols derived from matrix entries to construct an insertion tableau and a recording tableau; row and column sums determine their weights and transposition swaps the pair.

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 3 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
