We show that every admissible irreducible representation of a product of two locally compact groups is a tensor product of admissible irreducible representations of the factors.
In this paper we establish a Steinberg-Lusztig tensor product theorem for abstract Fock space. This is a generalization of the type A result of Leclerc-Thibon and a Grothendieck group version of the Steinberg-Lusztig tensor product theorem for representations of quantum groups at roots of unity. Although the statement can be phrased in terms of parabolic affine Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials and thus has geometric content, our proof is combinatorial, using the theory of crystals (Littelmann paths). We derive the Casselman-Shalika formula as a consequence of the Steinberg-Lusztig tensor product th…
In this paper, we consider the problem of determining when two tensor networks are equivalent under a heterogeneous change of basis. In particular, to a string diagram in a certain monoidal category (which we call tensor diagrams), we formulate an associated abelian category of representations. Each representation corresponds to a tensor network on that diagram. We then classify which tensor diagrams give rise to categories that are finite, tame, or wild in the traditional sense of representation theory. For those tensor diagrams of finite and tame type, we classify the indecomposable represen…
In this paper we completely characterise irreducible tensor products of representations of alternating groups in characteristic 2 of a basic spin module with an irreducible module. This completes the classification of irreducible tensor products of representations of alternating groups.
In this paper we study irreducible tensor products of representations of alternating groups in characteristics 2 and 3. In characteristic 3 we completely classify irreducible tensor products, while in characteristic 2 we completely classify irreducible tensor products where none of the modules appearing in the product is a basic spin module. In characteristic 2 we also give some necessary conditions for the tensor product of an irreducible module with a basic spin module to be irreducible.
We consider non-trivial irreducible tensor products of modular representations of a symmetric group $S_n$ in characteristic 2 for even $n$ completing the proof of a classification conjecture of Gow and Kleshchev about such products.
We investigate how the higher almost split sequences over a tensor product of algebras are related to those over each factor. Herschend and Iyama gave a precise criterion for when the tensor product of an $n$-representation finite algebra and an $m$-representation finite algebra is $(n+m)$-representation finite. In this case we give a complete description of the higher almost split sequences over the tensor product by expressing every higher almost split sequence as the mapping cone of a suitable chain map and using a natural notion of tensor product for chain maps.
We give an algebraic approach to the study of Hitchin pairs and prove the tensor product theorem for Higgs semistable Hitchin pairs over smooth projective curves defined over algebraically closed fields $k$ of characteristic $0$ and characteristic $p$, with $p$ satisfying some natural bounds. We also prove the corresponding theorem for polystable bundles.
The aim of this paper is to establish a first and second fundamental theorem for $GL(V)$ equivariant polynomial maps from $k$--tuples of matrix variables $End(V)^{ k} $ to tensor spaces $End(V)^{ \otimes n}$ in the spirit of H. Weyl's book {\em The classical groups} \cite{Weyl} and of symbolic algebra.
We introduce a non-symmetric tensor product of representations of UHF algebras by using Kronecker products of matrices. We prove tensor product formulae of GNS representations by product states and show examples.
Let $V=\oC^n$ and let $T:=T(V)\otimes T(V^*)$ be the mixed tensor algebra over $V$. We characterize those subsets $A$ of $T$ for which there is a subgroup $G$ of the unitary group $\UU(n)$ such that $A=T^G$. They are precisely the nondegenerate contraction-closed graded $*$-subalgebras of $T$. While the proof makes use of the First Fundamental Theorem for $\GL(n,\oC)$ (in the sense of Weyl), the characterization has as direct consequences First Fundamental Theorems for several subgroups of $\GL(n,\oC)$. Moreover, a Galois connection between linear algebraic $*$-subgroups of $\GL(n,\oC)$ and no…
We study the classical limit of a tensor product of Kirillov-Reshetikhin modules over a quantum loop algebra, and show that it is realized from the classical limits of the tensor factors using the notion of fusion products. In the process of the proof, we also give defining relations of the fusion product of the (graded) classical limits of Kirillov-Reshetikhin modules.
We use tilting modules to study the structure of the tensor product of two simple modules for the algebraic group $\SL_2$, in positive characteristic, obtaining a twisted tensor product theorem for its indecomposable direct summands. Various other related results are obtained, and numerous examples are computed.
We find a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of the tensor product of modules over a Lie conformal algebra. We provide two algebraic constructions of the tensor product. We show the relation between tensor product and conformal linear maps. We prove commutativity of the tensor product.
Demazure crystals are subcrystals of highest weight irreducible $\mathfrak{g}$-crystals. In this article, we study tensor products of a larger class of subcrystals, called extremal, and give a local characterization for exactly when the tensor product of Demazure crystals is extremal. We then show that tensor products of Demazure crystals decompose into direct sums of Demazure crystals if and only if the tensor product is extremal, thus providing a sufficient and necessary local criterion for when the tensor product of Demazure crystals is itself Demazure. As an application, we show that the p…
The role of Spaltenstein varieties in the tensor product for GL is explained. In particular a direct (non-combinatorial) proof of the fact that the number of irreducible components of a Spaltenstein variety is equal to a Littlewood-Richardson coefficient (i.e. certain tensor product multiplicity) is obtained.
We derive a closed formula for the tensor product of a family of mixed tensors using Deligne's interpolating category $Rep(GL_{0})$. We use this formula to compute the tensor product between any two maximal atypical irreducible $GL(2|2)$-representations.
As part of the study of correspondence functors, the present paper investigates their tensor product and proves some of its main properties. In particular, the correspondence functor associated to a finite lattice has the structure of a commutative algebra in the tensor category of all correspondence functors.
The aim of this work is to study finite dimensional representations of the Lie superalgebra psl(2|2) and their tensor products. In particular, we shall decompose all tensor products involving typical (long) and atypical (short) representations as well as their so-called projective covers. While tensor products of long multiplets and projective covers close among themselves, we shall find an infinite family of new indecomposables in the tensor products of two short multiplets. Our note concludes with a few remarks on possible applications to the construction of AdS_3 backgrounds in string theor…
