| Abstract | We prove that for all natural numbers $k,n,d$ with $kłe d$ and every partition λ of size $kn$ with at most $k$ parts there exists an irreducible $\mathrmGL(d,\mathbb C)$-representation of highest weight $2\cdotłambda$ in the plethysm $\mathrmSym^k \mathrmSym^2n (C^d)$. This gives an affirmative answer to a conjecture by Weintraub (J. Algebra, 129 (1):103-114, 1990). Our investigation is motivated by questions of geometric complexity theory and uses ideas from quantum information theory. |
