Abstract

For a partition λ of n, let I\rm Spλ be the ideal of R=K[x1, …, xn] generated by all Specht polynomials of shape λ. We show that if R/I\rm Spλ is Cohen--Macaulay then λ is of the form either (a, 1, …, 1), (a,b), or (a,a,1). We also prove that the converse is true if \rm char(K)=0. To show the latter statement, the radicalness of these ideals and a result of Etingof et al. are crucial. We also remark that R/I\rm Sp(n-3,3) is NOT Cohen--Macaulay if and only if \rm char(K)=2.
