Given a classical symmetric pair, $(G,K)$, with $\mathfrak g = Lie(G)$, we provide descriptions of the Hilbert series of the algebra of $K$-invariant vectors in the associated graded algebra of $\mathcal U(\mathfrak g)$ viewed as a $K$-representation under restriction of the adjoint representation. The description illuminates a certain stable behavior of the Hilbert series, which is investigated in a case-by-case basis. We note that the stable Hilbert series of one symmetric pair often coincides with others. Also, for the case of the real form $U(p,q)$ we derive a closed expression for the Hilbert series when $\min(p,q) \to \infty$.
We provide a linkage principle in an arbitrary parabolic category $\mathcal O^{\mathfrak p}$ for the periplectic Lie superalgebras $\mathfrak{pe}(n)$. As an application, we classify indecomposable blocks in $\mathcal O^{\mathfrak p}$. We classify indecomposable tilting modules in $\mathcal O^{\mathfrak p}$ whose characters are controlled by the Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials of type $\bf A$ Lie algebras. We establish the complete list of characters of indecomposable tilting modules in $\mathcal O^{\mathfrak p}$ for $\mathfrak{pe}(3)$.
Let $\mathfrak g$ be a semisimple Lie algebra, $\vartheta\in {\sf Aut}(\mathfrak g)$ a finite order automorphism, and $\mathfrak g_0$ the subalgebra of fixed points of $\vartheta$. Recently, we noticed that using $\vartheta$ one can construct a pencil of compatible Poisson brackets on $\mathcal S(\mathfrak g)$, and thereby a `large' Poisson-commutative subalgebra $\mathcal Z(\mathfrak g,\vartheta)$ of $\mathcal S(\mathfrak g)^{\mathfrak g_0}$. In this article, we study invariant-theoretic properties of $(\mathfrak g,\vartheta)$ that ensure good properties of $\mathcal Z(\mathfrak g,\vartheta)$…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a simple complex Lie algebra and let $\mathfrak{t} \subset \mathfrak{g}$ be a toral subalgebra of $\mathfrak{g}$. As a $\mathfrak{t}$-module $\mathfrak{g}$ decomposes as \[\mathfrak{g} = \mathfrak{s} \oplus \big(\oplus_{ν\in \mathcal{R}} \mathfrak{g}^ν\big)\] where $\mathfrak{s} \subset \mathfrak{g}$ is the reductive part of a parabolic subalgebra of $\mathfrak{g}$ and $\mathcal{R}$ is the Kostant root system associated to $\mathfrak{t}$. When $\mathfrak{t}$ is a Cartan subalgebra of $\mathfrak{g}$ the decomposition above is nothing but the root decomposition of $\mathfra…
The BGG category $\mathcal{O}$ and its generalization $\mathcal{O}^\mathfrak{p}$ play essential roles in representation theory and have led to far-reaching work. Some elementary problems remain open for several decades, such as the block decomposition of category $\mathcal{O}^\mathfrak{p}$. In this paper, we solve the problem of blocks by applying the theory of Jantzen coefficients.
A real Lie algebra with a compatible Hilbert space structure (in the sense that the scalar product is invariant) is called a Hilbert-Lie algebra. Such Lie algebras are natural infinite-dimensional analogues of the compact Lie algebras; in particular, any infinite-dimensional simple Hilbert-Lie algebra $\mathfrak{k}$ is of one of the four classical types $A_J$, $B_J$, $C_J$ or $D_J$ for some infinite set $J$. Imitating the construction of affine Kac-Moody algebras, one can then consider affinisations of $\mathfrak{k}$, that is, double extensions of (twisted) loop algebras over $\mathfrak{k}$. S…
The three point current algebra $\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathcal R)$ where $\mathcal R=\mathbb C[t,t^{-1},u\,|\,u^2=t^2+4t ]$ and three-point Virasoro algebra both act on a previously constructed Fock space. In this paper we prove that the semi-direct product, i.e. the gauge algebra acts on the Fock space as well.
We describe the universal central extension of the three point current algebra $\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathcal R)$ where $\mathcal R=\mathbb C[t,t^{-1},u\,|\,u^2=t^2+4t ]$ and construct realizations of it in terms of sums of partial differential operators.
Let $\mathfrak g$ be a complex simple Lie algebra and $\mathfrak b=\mathfrak t\oplus\mathfrak u^+$ a fixed Borel subalgebra. Let $Δ^+$ be the set of positive roots associated with $\mathfrak u^+$ and $\mathcal K\subsetΔ^+$ the Kostant cascade. We elaborate on some constructions related to $\mathcal K$ and applications of $\mathcal K$. This includes the cascade element $x_{\mathcal K}$ in the Cartan subalgebra $\mathfrak t$ and properties of certain objects naturally associated with $\mathcal K$: an abelian ideal of $\mathfrak b$, a nilpotent $G$-orbit in $\mathfrak g$, and an involution of $\m…
The symmetric algebra $S(\mathfrak g)$ of a reductive Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ is equipped with the standard Poisson structure, i.e., the Lie-Poisson bracket. Poisson-commutative subalgebras of $S(\mathfrak g)$ attract a great deal of attention, because of their relationship to integrable systems and, more recently, to geometric representation theory. The transcendence degree of a Poisson-commutative subalgebra ${\mathcal C}\subset S(\mathfrak g)$ is bounded by the "magic number" $\boldsymbol{b}(\mathfrak g)$ of $\mathfrak g$. The "argument shift method" of Mishchenko-Fomenko was basically th…
Let $\mathfrak g$ be a finite-dimensional Lie algebra. The symmetric algebra $\mathcal S(\mathfrak g)$ is equipped with the standard Lie-Poisson bracket. In this paper, we elaborate on a surprising observation that one naturally associates the second compatible Poisson bracket on $\mathcal S(\mathfrak g)$ to any finite order automorphism $θ$ of $\mathfrak g$. We study related Poisson-commutative subalgebras $\mathcal C$ of $\mathcal S(\mathfrak g)$ and associated Lie algebra contractions of $\mathfrak g$. To obtain substantial results, we have to assume that $\mathfrak g$ is semisimple. Then w…
Let $G$ be a semisimple algebraic group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$. For a nilpotent $G$-orbit $\mathcal O\subset\mathfrak g$, let $d_\mathcal O$ denote the maximal dimension of a subspace $V\subset \mathfrak g$ that is contained in the closure of $\mathcal O$. In this note, we prove that $d_\mathcal O \le \frac{1}{2}\dim\mathcal O$ and this upper bound is attained if and only if $\mathcal O$ is a Richardson orbit. Furthermore, if $V$ is $B$-stable and $\dim V= \frac{1}{2}\dim\mathcal O$, then $V$ is the nilradical of a polarisation of $\mathcal O$. Every nilpotent orbit closure has a disti…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a root-reductive Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{K}$ of characteristic $0$ with a splitting Borel subalgebra $\mathfrak{b}$ containing a splitting maximal toral subalgebra $\mathfrak{h}$. We study the category $\bar{\mathcal{O}}$ consisting of all $\mathfrak{h}$-weight $\mathfrak{g}$-modules which are locally $\mathfrak{b}$-finite and have finite-dimensional $\mathfrak{h}$-weight spaces. The focus is on very special Borel subalgebras called the Dynkin Borel subalgebras. This paper serves as an initial passage to the understanding of categories $\ma…
The reducible Specht modules for the Hecke algebra $\mathcal{H}_{\mathbb{F},q}(\mathfrak{S}_n)$ have been classified except when $q=-1$. We prove one half of a conjecture which we believe classifies the reducible Specht modules when $q=-1$ and $\mathbb{F}$ has characteristic 0.
We study a category of modules over $\mathfrak{gl}(\infty)$ analogous to category $\mathcal O$. We fix adequate Cartan, Borel and Levi-type subalgebras $\mathfrak h, \mathfrak b$ and $\mathfrak l$ with $\mathfrak l \cong \mathfrak{gl}(\infty)^n$, and define $\mathcal O_{\mathsf{LA}}^{\mathfrak l}{\mathfrak{gl}(\infty)}$ to be the category of $\mathfrak h$-semisimple, $\mathfrak n$-nilpotent modules that satisfy a large annihilator condition as $\mathfrak l$-modules. Our main result is that these are highest weight categories in the sense of Cline, Parshall and Scott. We compute the simple mult…
This note extends the Steinberg Tensor product theorem from the Frobenius kernel $G_{(r)}$ to the deformation $\mathcal{U}^{[r]}(\mathfrak{g})$ of its distribution algebra. As a Corollary we proof some conjectures from \cite{Wes}. Further it describes the graded representation theory of $\mathcal{U}^{[r]}(\mathfrak{g})$ at a generic semisimple p-central character as a twist of the category of graded $G_{(r-1)}$-modules. We conclude by explaining this relation for $SL_2$ explicitely as well as computing the center in this case.
Given a complex orthosymplectic superspace $V$, the orthosymplectic Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak {osp}(V)$ and general linear algebra ${\mathfrak {gl}}_N$ both act naturally on the coordinate super-ring $\mathcal{S}(N)$ of the dual space of $V\otimes{\mathbb C}^N$, and their actions commute. Hence the subalgebra $\mathcal{S}(N)^{\mathfrak {osp}(V)}$ of $\mathfrak {osp}(V)$-invariants in $\mathcal{S}(N)$ has a ${\mathfrak {gl}}_N$-module structure. We introduce the space of super Pfaffians as a simple ${\mathfrak {gl}}_N$-submodule of $\mathcal{S}(N)^{\mathfrak {osp}(V)}$, give an explicit formu…
We classify the $(\mathfrak{g},K)$-modules generated by nearly holomorphic Hilbert-Siegel modular forms by the global method. As an application, we study the image of projection operators on the space of nearly holomorphic Hilbert-Siegel modular forms with respect to infinitesimal characters in terms of $(\mathfrak{g},K)$-modules.
Recently we defined imaginary crystal bases for $U_q(\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}(2)})$- modules in category $\mathcal O^q_{\text{red,im}}$ and showed the existence of such bases for reduced quantized imaginary Verma modules for $U_q(\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}(2)})$. In this paper we show the existence of imaginary crystal basis for any object in the category $\mathcal O^q_{\text{red,im}}$.
We prove the rationality of the exceptional W-algebras associated with the simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sp}_4$ and subregular nilpotent elements, proving a new particular case of a conjecture of Kac-Wakimoto. Moreover, we describe the simple $\mathcal{W}_k(\mathfrak{sp}_4,f_{subreg})$-modules and compute their characters. We also explicit the nontrivial action of the component group on the set of these simple modules.
We determine the Verma multiplicities of standard filtrations of projective modules for integral atypical blocks in the BGG category $\mathcal{O}$ for the orthosymplectic Lie superalgebras $\mathfrak{osp}(3|4)$ by way of translation functors. We then explicitly determine the composition factor multiplicities of Verma modules using BGG reciprocity.
We consider the $μ$-densities spaces $\mathcal{F}_μ$ with $μ\in\mathbb{R}$, we compute the space $\mathrm{H}^1_\mathrm{diff}(\mathfrak{aff}(1),\mathrm{D}_{λ,μ})$ where $λ=(λ_1,\dots,λ_n)\in\mathbb{R}^n$ and $\mathrm{D}_{λ,μ}$ is the space of $n$-ary differential operators from $\mathcal{F}_{λ_1}\otimes\cdots\otimes\mathcal{F}_{λ_n}$ to $\mathcal{F}_μ$. We also compute the super analog space $\mathrm{H}^1_\mathrm{diff}(\mathfrak{aff}(1|1),\mathfrak{D}_{λ,μ})$.
Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field $\mathbbm k$ of characteristic zero. We consider the commuting variety $\mathcal C(\mathfrak u)$ of the nilradical $\mathfrak u$ of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak b$ of a Borel subgroup $B$ of $G$. In case $B$ acts on $\mathfrak u$ with only a finite number of orbits, we verify that $\mathcal C(\mathfrak u)$ is equidimensional and that the irreducible components are in correspondence with the {\em distinguished} $B$-orbits in $\mathfrak u$. We observe that in general $\mathcal C(\mathfrak u)$ is not equidim…
We investigate abelian quotients arising from extriangulated categories via morphism categories, which is a unified treatment for both exact categories and triangulated categories. Let $(\mathcal{C},\mathbb{E},\mathfrak{s})$ be an extriangulated category with enough projectives $\mathcal{P}$ and $\mathcal{M}$ be a full subcategory of $\mathcal{C}$ containing $\mathcal{P}$. We show that certain quotient category of $\mathfrak{s}\textup{-def}(\mathcal{M})$, the category of $\mathfrak{s}$-deflations $f:M_{1}\rightarrow M_2$ with $M_1,M_2\in\mathcal{M}$, is abelian. Our main theorem has two applic…
As a particular one parameter deformation of the quantum determinant, we introduce a quantum $α$-determinant and study the $\mathcal{U}_q(\mathfrak{gl}_n)$-cyclic module generated by it: We show that the multiplicity of each irreducible representation in this cyclic module is determined by a certain polynomial called the $q$-content discriminant. A part of the present result is a quantum counterpart for the result of Matsumoto and Wakayama (2005), however, a new distinguished feature arises in our situation.
The purpose of my Ph.D. research is to define and study an analogue of the classical Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand (BGG) category $\mathcal{O}$ for the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, where $\mathfrak{g}$ is one of the finitary, infinite-dimensional Lie algebras $\mathfrak{gl}_\infty(\mathbb{K})$, $\mathfrak{sl}_\infty(\mathbb{K})$, $\mathfrak{so}_\infty(\mathbb{K})$, and $\mathfrak{sp}_\infty(\mathbb{K})$. Here, $\mathbb{K}$ is an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$. We call these categories "extended categories $\mathcal{O}$" and use the notation $\bar{\mathcal{O}}$. While the categorie…
We consider the deformed versions of the classical Howe dual pairs $(O(r),\mathfrak{s}\mathfrak{l}(2))$ and $(O(r),\mathfrak{s}\mathfrak{p}\mathfrak{o}(2|2))$ in the context of a rational Cherednik algebra $H_c=H_c(W,\mathfrak{h})$ associated to a finite Coxeter group $W$ at the parameters $c$ and $t=1$. For the first pair, we compute the centraliser of the well-known copy of $\mathfrak{s}\cong\mathfrak{s}\mathfrak{l}(2)$ inside $H_c$. For the second pair, we show that the classical copy of $\mathfrak{g}\cong\mathfrak{s}\mathfrak{p}\mathfrak{o}(2|2)$ inside the Weyl-Clifford algebra $\mathcal{…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a simple, finite-dimensional Lie (super)algebra equipped with an embedding of $\mathfrak{s} \mathfrak{l}_2$ inducing the minimal gradation on $\mathfrak{g}$. The corresponding minimal $\mathcal{W}$-algebra $\mathcal{W}^k(\mathfrak{g}, e_{-θ})$ introduced by Kac and Wakimoto has strong generators in weights $1,2,3/2$, and all operator product expansions are known explicitly. The weight one subspace generates an affine vertex (super)algebra $V^{k'}(\mathfrak{g}^{\natural})$ where $\mathfrak{g}^{\natural} \subset \mathfrak{g}$ denotes the centralizer of $\mathfrak{s} \mathfr…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a real finite-dimensional Lie algebra containing pointed generating invariant closed convex cones. We determine those derivations $D$ of $\mathfrak{g}$ which induce a 3-grading of the form $\mathfrak{g} = \mathfrak{g}_{-1} \oplus \mathfrak{g}_0 \oplus \mathfrak{g}_1$ on $\mathfrak{g}$ such that the $(\pm 1)$-eigenspaces $\mathfrak{g}_{\pm 1}$ of $D$ are generated by the intersections with generating cones of the form $W = \mathcal{O}_f^*$, where $\mathcal{O}_f$ is the coadjoint orbit of a linear functional $f \in \mathfrak{z}(\mathfrak{g})^*$ and $\mathcal{O}_f^*$ is the …
In this paper, we deal with the $\mathcal{U}(\mathfrak{g})$-action on a $\mathfrak{g}$-module on which a larger algebra $\mathcal{A}$ acts irreducibly. Under a mild condition, we will show that the support of the $\mathcal{Z}(\mathfrak{g})$-action is a union of affine subspaces in the dual of a Cartan subalgebra modulo the Weyl group action. As a consequence, we propose a definition of a Cartan subalgebra for such a $\mathfrak{g}$-module. The support of the $\mathcal{Z}(\mathfrak{g})$-module is an algebraic counterpart of the support of the measure in the irreducible decomposition of a unitary…
Let $\mathbb{H}_n$ be the $(2n+1)$-dimensional Heisenberg group and $K$ a closed subgroup of $U(n)$ acting on $\mathbb{H}_n$ by automorphisms such that $(K,\mathbb{H}_n)$ is a Gelfand pair. Let $G=K\ltimes\mathbb{H}_n$ be the semidirect product of $K$ and $\mathbb{H}_n$. Let $\mathfrak{g}\supset\mathfrak{k}$ be the respective Lie algebras of $G$ and $K$, and $\operatorname{pr}: \mathfrak{g}^{*}\longrightarrow\mathfrak{k}^{*}$ the natural projection. For coadjoint orbits $\mathcal{O}^{G}\subset\mathfrak{g}^{*}$ and $\mathcal{O}^{K}\subset\mathfrak{k}^{*}$, we denote by $n\big(\mathcal{O}^{G},\m…
For classical Lie superalgebras of type I, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a Verma supermodule $Δ(λ)$ to be such that every non-zero homomorphism from another Verma supermodule to $Δ(λ)$ is injective. This is applied to describe the socle of the cokernel of an inclusion of Verma supermodules over the periplectic Lie superalgebras $\mathfrak{pe}(n)$ and, furthermore, to reduce the problem of description of $\mathrm{Ext}^1_{\mathcal O}(L(μ),Δ(λ))$ for $\mathfrak{pe}(n)$ to the similar problem for the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{gl}(n)$. Additionally, we study the projective and inj…
We categorify Verma and indecomposable projective modules in the category $\mathcal I_{\mathfrak{g}}(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ for $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ using a tensor product decomposition theorem of T. J. Enright and work of J. Chuang and R. Rouquier, A. Licata and A. Savage (Hecke algebras, finite general linear groups, and Heisenberg categorification) and M. Khovanov (Heisenberg algebra and a graphical calculus).
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 2$, let $n \in \mathbb Z_{>0}$, and take $G$ to be one of the classical algebraic groups $\mathrm{GL}_n(k)$, $\mathrm{SL}_n(k)$, $\mathrm{Sp}_n(k)$, $\mathrm O_n(k)$ or $\mathrm{SO}_n(k)$, with $\mathfrak g = \operatorname{Lie} G$. We determine the maximal $G$-stable closed subvariety $\mathcal V$ of the nilpotent cone $\mathcal N$ of $\mathfrak g$ such that the $G$-orbits in $\mathcal V$ are in bijection with the $G$-orbits of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$-triples $(e,h,f)$ with $e,f \in \mathcal V$. This result determines to what extent the…
Let $G=K\ltimes\mathbb{R}^n$, where $K$ is a compact connected subgroup of $O(n)$ acting on $\mathbb{R}^n$ by rotations. Let $\mathfrak{g}\supset\mathfrak{k}$ be the respective Lie algebras of $G$ and $K$, and $pr: \mathfrak{g}^{*}\longrightarrow\mathfrak{k}^{*}$ the natural projection. For admissible coadjoint orbits $\mathcal{O}^{G}\subset\mathfrak{g}^{*}$ and $\mathcal{O}^{K}\subset\mathfrak{k}^{*}$, we denote by $n(\mathcal{O}^{G},\mathcal{O}^{K})$ the number of $K$-orbits in $\mathcal{O}^{G}\cap pr^{-1}(\mathcal{O}^{K})$, which is called the Corwin-Greenleaf multiplicity function. Let $π\…
Let $\mathbf{c}_0$ be the lowest generalized two-sided cell of an extended affine Weyl group W. We determine the structure of the based ring of $\mathbf{c}_0$. For this we show that certain conjectures of Lusztig on generalized cells (called P1-P15) hold for $\mathbf{c}_0$. As an application, we use the structure of the based ring to study certain simple modules of Hecke algebras of $ W $ with unequal parameters, namely those attached to $\mathbf{c}_0$. Also we give a set of prime ideals $\mathfrak{p}$ of the center $\mathcal{Z}$ of the generic affine Hecke algebra $\mathcal{H}$ such that the …
Birational equivalence of the Zassenhaus varieties for basic classical Lie superalgebras and their purely-even reductive Lie subalgebras in odd characteristic
We study the categorical type A action on the Deligne category $\mathcal{D}_t=\underline{Rep}(GL_t)$ (here $t \in \mathbb{C}$) and its "abelian envelope" $\mathcal{V}_t$ constructed in arXiv:1511.07699. For $t \in \mathbb{Z}$, this action categorifies an action of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}_{\mathbb{Z}}$ on the tensor product of the Fock space $\mathfrak{F}$ with $\mathfrak{F}_t^{\vee}$, its restricted dual "shifted" by $t$, as was suggested by I. Losev. In fact, this action makes the category $\mathcal{V}_t$ the tensor product (in the sense of Losev and Webster, arXiv:1303.1336) of catego…
Let $(G,G_1)$ be a symmetric pair of holomorphic type, and we consider a pair of Hermitian symmetric spaces $D_1=G_1/K_1\subset D=G/K$, realized as bounded symmetric domains in complex vector spaces $\mathfrak{p}^+_1\subset\mathfrak{p}^+$ respectively. Then the universal covering group $\widetilde{G}$ of $G$ acts unitarily on the weighted Bergman space $\mathcal{H}_λ(D)\subset\mathcal{O}(D)$ on $D$. Its restriction to the subgroup $\widetilde{G}_1$ decomposes discretely and multiplicity-freely, and its branching law is given explicitly by Hua-Kostant-Schmid-Kobayashi's formula in terms of the …
For a semisimple complex Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$, the BGG category $\mathcal{O}$ is of particular interest in representation theory. It is known that Irving's shuffling functors $\mathrm{Sh}_{w}$, indexed by elements $w\in W$ of the Weyl group, induce an action of the braid group $B_W$ associated to $W$ on the derived categories $D^\mathrm{b}(\mathcal{O}_λ)$ of blocks of $\mathcal{O}$. We show that for maximal parabolic subalgebras $\mathfrak{p}$ of $\mathfrak{sl}_n$ corresponding to the parabolic subgroup $W_\mathfrak{p}=S_{n-1}\times S_1$ of $S_n$, the derived shuffling functors $\mathbf{L…
Let $\mathcal {W}^k(\mathfrak{sl}_4, f_{\text {subreg}})$ be the universal $\mathcal{W}$-algebra associated to $\mathfrak{sl}_4$ with its subregular nilpotent element, and let $\mathcal {W}_k(\mathfrak{sl}_4, f_{\text {subreg}})$ be its simple quotient. There is a Heisenberg subalgebra $\mathcal{H}$, and we denote by $\mathcal{C}^k$ the coset $\text{Com}(\mathcal{H}, \mathcal {W}^k(\mathfrak{sl}_4, f_{\text {subreg}}))$, and by $\mathcal{C}_k$ its simple quotient. We show that for $k=-4+(m+4)/3$ where $m$ is an integer greater than $2$ and $m+1$ is coprime to $3$, $\mathcal{C}_k$ is isomorphic…
This paper is devoted to an elementary new construction of $1$-singular Gelfand-Tsetlin modules using complex geometry. We introduce a universal ring $\mathcal D_o$ together with the vector space $\mathcal S=\mathcal S(\mathcal D_o)$ with basis $\mathcal B_o = \mathcal B(\mathcal D_o)$ formed from some local distributions such that $\mathcal S$ is a natural $\mathcal D_o$-module. For any homomorphism of rings $\mathcal U(\mathfrak{h}) \to \mathcal D_o$, where $\mathfrak{h}$ is a Lie algebra, it follows that $\mathcal S$ is also an $\mathfrak{h}$-module. We observe that the homomorphism of ring…
Let ${\mathcal S}(\mathfrak g)$ be the symmetric algebra of a reductive Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ equipped with the standard Poisson structure. If ${\mathcal C}\subset\mathcal S(\mathfrak g)$ is a Poisson-commutative subalgebra, then ${\rm trdeg\,}{\mathcal C}\le\boldsymbol{b}(\mathfrak g)$, where $\boldsymbol{b}(\mathfrak g)=(\dim\mathfrak g+{\rm rk}\mathfrak g)/2$. We present a method for constructing the Poisson-commutative subalgebra $\mathcal Z_{\langle\mathfrak h,\mathfrak r\rangle}$ of transcendence degree $\boldsymbol{b}(\mathfrak g)$ via a vector space decomposition $\mathfrak g=\math…
The closest infinite dimensional relatives of compact Lie algebras are Hilbert-Lie algebras, i.e. real Hilbert spaces with a Lie algebra structure for which the scalar product is invariant. Locally affine Lie algebras (LALAs) correspond to double extensions of (twisted) loop algebras over simple Hilbert-Lie algebras $\mathfrak{k}$, also called affinisations of $\mathfrak{k}$. They possess a root space decomposition whose corresponding root system is a locally affine root system of one of the $7$ families $A_J^{(1)}$, $B_J^{(1)}$, $C_J^{(1)}$, $D_J^{(1)}$, $B_J^{(2)}$, $C_J^{(2)}$ and $BC_J^{(2…
Let $U_q'(\mathfrak{g})$ be a quantum affine algebra of untwisted affine $ADE$ type, and $\mathcal{C}_{\mathfrak{g}}^0$ the Hernandez-Leclerc category of finite-dimensional $U_q'(\mathfrak{g})$-modules. For a suitable infinite sequence $\widehat{w}_0= \cdots s_{i_{-1}}s_{i_0}s_{i_1} \cdots$ of simple reflections, we introduce subcategories $\mathcal{C}_{\mathfrak{g}}^{[a,b]}$ of $\mathcal{C}_{\mathfrak{g}}^0$ for all $a \le b \in \mathbb{Z}\sqcup\{ \pm \infty \}$. Associated with a certain chain $\mathfrak{C}$ of intervals in $[a,b]$, we construct a real simple commuting family $M(\mathfrak{C}…
Let $\mathfrak g$ be a semisimple Lie algebra, $\mathfrak h\subset\mathfrak g$ a reductive subalgebra such that $\mathfrak h^\perp$ is a complementary $\mathfrak h$-submodule of $\mathfrak g$. In 1983, Bogoyavlenski claimed that one obtains a Poisson commutative subalgebra of the symmetric algebra ${\mathcal S}(\mathfrak g)$ by taking the subalgebra ${\mathcal Z}$ generated by the bi-homogeneous components of all $H\in{\mathcal S}(\mathfrak g)^{\mathfrak g}$. But this is false, and we present a counterexample. We also provide a criterion for the Poisson commutativity of such subalgebras ${\mat…
Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group with $\mathfrak g=\mathsf{Lie} G$ and $\mathcal O_{\sf min}\subset\mathfrak g$ the minimal nilpotent orbit. For a $\mathbb Z_2$-grading $\mathfrak g=\mathfrak g_0\oplus\mathfrak g_1$, let $G_0$ be a connected subgroup of $G$ with $\mathsf{Lie} G_0=\mathfrak g_0$. We study the $G_0$-equivariant projections $φ:\overline{\mathcal O_{\sf min}}\to \mathfrak g_0$ and $ψ:\overline{\mathcal O_{\sf min}}\to\mathfrak g_1$. It is shown that the properties of $\overline{φ(\mathcal O_{\sf min})}$ and $\overline{ψ(\mathcal O_{\sf min})}$ essentially depend on whether the …
We consider the quantum symmetric pair $(\mathcal{U}_q(\mathfrak{su}(3)), \mathcal{B})$ where $\mathcal{B}$ is a right coideal subalgebra. We prove that all finite-dimensional irreducible representations of $\mathcal{B}$ are weight representations and are characterised by their highest weight and dimension. We show that the restriction of a finite-dimensional irreducible representation of $\mathcal{U}_q(\mathfrak{su}(3))$ to $\mathcal{B}$ decomposes multiplicity free into irreducible representations of $\mathcal{B}$. Furthermore we give explicit expressions for the highest weight vectors in th…
Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a generalized matrix algebra over a commutative ring $\mathcal{R}$, ${\mathfrak q}\colon \mathcal{G}\times\mathcal{G}\longrightarrow \mathcal{G}$ be an $\mathcal{R}$-bilinear mapping and ${\mathfrak T}_{\mathfrak q}\colon:\mathcal{G}\longrightarrow \mathcal{G}$ be a trace of $\mathfrak{q}$. We describe the form of ${\mathfrak T}_{\mathfrak q}$ satisfying the condition ${\mathfrak T}_{\mathfrak q}(G)G=G{\mathfrak T}_{\mathfrak q}(G)$ for all $G\in \mathcal{G}$. The question of when ${\mathfrak T}_{\mathfrak q}$ has the proper form is considered. Using the aforementioned tra…
We use the technique of Harish-Chandra bimodules to prove that regular strongly typical blocks of the category $\mathcal{O}$ for the queer Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{q}_n$ are equivalent to the corresponding blocks of the category $\mathcal{O}$ for the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{gl}_n$.
