We develop a theoretical framework for $S_n$-equivariant convolutional quantum circuits with SU$(d)$-symmetry, building on and significantly generalizing Jordan's Permutational Quantum Computing (PQC) formalism based on Schur-Weyl duality connecting both SU$(d)$ and $S_n$ actions on qudits. In particular, we utilize the Okounkov-Vershik approach to prove Harrow's statement (Ph.D. Thesis 2005 p.160) on the equivalence between $\operatorname{SU}(d)$ and $S_n$ irrep bases and to establish the $S_n$-equivariant Convolutional Quantum Alternating Ansätze ($S_n$-CQA) using Young-Jucys-Murphy (YJM) elements. We prove that $S_n$-CQA is able to generate any unitary in any given $S_n$ irrep sector, which may serve as a universal model for a wide array of quantum machine learning problems with the presence of SU($d$) symmetry. Our method provides another way to prove the universality of Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) and verifies that 4-local SU($d$) symmetric unitaries are sufficient to build generic SU($d$) symmetric quantum circuits up to relative phase factors. We present numerical simulations to showcase the effectiveness of the ansätze to find the ground state energy of the $J_1$--$J_2$ antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on the rectangular and Kagome lattices. Our work provides the first application of the celebrated Okounkov-Vershik's $S_n$ representation theory to quantum physics and machine learning, from which to propose quantum variational ansätze that strongly suggests to be classically intractable tailored towards a specific optimization problem.
