Abstract

In this paper we show that the center of the partition algebra A2k(δ), in the semisimple case, is given by the subalgebra of supersymmetric polynomials in the normalised Jucys-Murphy elements. For the non-semisimple case, such a subalgebra is shown to be central, and in particular it is large enough to recognise the block structure of A2k(δ). This allows one to give an alternative description for when two simple A2k(δ)-modules belong to the same block.
