The symmetric group S_n possesses a nontrivial central extension, whose irreducible representations, different from the irreducible representations of S_n itself, coincide with the irreducible representations of a certain algebra A_n. Recently M.~Nazarov realized irreducible representations of A_n and Young symmetrizers by means of the Howe duality between the Lie superalgebra q(n) and the Hecke algebra H_n, the semidirect product of S_n with the Clifford algebra C_n on n indeterminates.
Here I construct one more analog of Young symmetrizers in H_n as well as the analogs of Specht modules for A_n and H_n.
Let k be an algebraically closed field and A a k-linear hereditary category satisfying Serre duality with no infinite radicals between the preprojective objects. If A is generated by the preprojective objects, then we show that A is derived equivalent to rep_k Q for a so called strongly locally finite quiver Q. To this end, we introduce light cone distances and round trip distances on quivers which will be used to investigate sections in stable translation quivers of the form \mathbb{Z} Q.
We identify a class of symmetric algebras over a complete discrete valuation ring $\mathcal O$ of characteristic zero to which the characterisation of Knörr lattices in terms of stable endomorphism rings in the case of finite group algebras, can be extended. This class includes finite group algebras, their blocks and source algebras and Hopf orders. We also show that certain arithmetic properties of finite group representations extend to this class of algebras. Our results are based on an explicit description of Tate duality for lattices over symmetric $\mathcal O$-algebras whose extension to …
We show that an adaptation of Landrock's Lemma for symmetric algebras also holds for cellular algebras and BGG algebras. This is a result relating the radical layers of any two projective modules. The reason it holds in our setting is that there is a duality between injective hulls and projective covers. As a corollary we deduce that BGG reciprocity respects Loewy structure.
Let A_k denote the twisted group algebra of the symmetric group S_k, whose representations correspond to the nonlinear projective representations of S_k. We establish a duality relation between A_k and a Lie superalgebra q(n), sometimes called the ``queer'' Lie superalgebra. This duality clarifies Schur's formula, in the sense that the Schur-Weyl duality clarifies Frobenius' formula.
For all the irreducible dual pairs of type I $(G,G')$, we analyze the restriction of the oscillator representation as a $(\mathfrak{g}', K')$-module, when $G'$ is the smaller group. For all $(G,G')$ in the stable range, as well as one more case, the modules obtained are projective. We use the duality correspondence introduced by Howe to analyze these restrictions.
We study the truncation functors and show the existence of projective cover of each irreducible module in parabolic BGG category $\mathcal O$ over infinite rank Lie algebra of types $\mathfrak{a,b,c,d}$. Moreover, $\mathcal O$ is a Koszul category. As a consequence, the corresponding parabolic BGG category $\overline{\mathcal O}$ over infinite rank Lie superalgebra of types $\mathfrak{a,b,c,d}$ through the super duality is also a Koszul category.
In this paper, we study extensions of graded affine Hecke algebra modules. In particular, based on an explicit projective resolution on graded affine Hecke algebra modules, we prove a duality result for Ext-groups. This duality result with an Ind-Res resolution gives an algebraic proof of the fact that all higher Ext-groups between discrete series vanish.
Let $A$ be a finite-dimensional algebra over a field of characteristic $p>0$. We use a functorial approach involving torsion pairs to construct embeddings of endomorphism algebras of basic projective $A$--modules $P$ into those of the torsion submodules of $P$. As an application, we show that blocks of both the classical and quantum Schur algebras $S(2,r)$ and $S_q(2,r)$ are Morita equivalent as quasi-hereditary algebras to their Ringel duals if they contain $2p^k$ simple modules for some $k$.
We introduce quasi-hereditary endomorphism algebras defined over a new class of finite dimensional monomial algebras with a special ideal structure. The main result is a uniform formula describing the Ringel duals of these quasi-hereditary algebras. As special cases, we obtain a Ringel-duality formula for a family of strongly quasi-hereditary algebras arising from a type A configuration of projective lines in a rational, projective surface as recently introduced by Hille and Ploog, for certain Auslander-Dlab-Ringel algebras, and for Eiriksson and Sauter's nilpotent quiver algebras when the qui…
Auslander-Reiten duality for module categories is generalized to some sufficiently nice subcategories. In particular, our consideration works for $\mathcal{P}^{<\infty}(Λ)$, the subcategory consisting of finitely generated modules with finite projective dimension over an artin algebra $Λ$, and also, the subcategory of Gorenstein projectove modules of $\rm{mod}\mbox{-}Λ$, denoted by $\rm{Gprj}\mbox{-}Λ$. In this paper, we give a method to compute the Auslander-Reiten translation in $\mathcal{P}^{<\infty}(Λ)$ whenever $Λ$ is a $1$-Gorenstein algebra. In addition, we characterize when the Ausland…
A basis for the space of generalized theta functions of level one for the spin groups, parameterized by the theta characteristics (the even theta characteristcs for the odd spin groups) on a curve, is shown to be projectively flat over the moduli space of curves (for Hitchin's connection). The symplectic strange duality conjecture, conjectured by Beauville is shown to hold for all curves of genus at least two, by using Abe's proof of the conjecture for generic curves, and the above monodromy result.
We construct an isomorphism between the (universal) spherical Hall algebra of a smooth projective curve of genus g and a convolution algebra in the (equivariant) K-theory of the genus g commuting varieties C_{{gl}_r}={(x_i, y_i) \in {gl}_r^{2g}; \sum_{i=1}^g [x_i,y_i]=0}. We can view this isomorphism as a version of the geometric Langlands duality in the formal neighborhood of the trivial local system, for the group GL_r. We extend this to all reductive groups and we compute the image, under our correspondence, of the skyscraper sheaf supported on the trivial local system.
We study imaginary representations of the Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier algebras of affine Lie type. Irreducible modules for such algebras arise as simple heads of standard modules. In order to define standard modules one needs to have a cuspidal system for a fixed convex preorder. A cuspidal system consists of irreducible cuspidal modules---one for each real positive root for the corresponding affine root system ${\tt X}_l^{(1)}$, as well as irreducible imaginary modules---one for each $l$-multipartition. We study imaginary modules by means of `imaginary Schur-Weyl duality'. We introduce an imagina…
We describe how certain cyclotomic Nazarov-Wenzl algebras occur as endomorphism rings of projective modules in a parabolic version of BGG category O of type $D$. Furthermore we study a family of subalgebras of these endomorphism rings which exhibit similar behaviour to the family of Brauer algebras even when they are not semisimple. The translation functors on this parabolic category O are studied and proven to yield a categorification of a coideal subalgebra of the general linear Lie algebra. Finally this is put into the context of categorifying skew Howe duality for these subalgebras.
Classical invariants for representations of one Lie group can often be related to invariants of some other Lie group. Physics suggests that the right objects to consider for these questions are certain refinements of classical invariants known as conformal blocks. Conformal blocks appear in algebraic geometry as spaces of global sections of line bundles on the moduli stack of parabolic bundles on a smooth curve. Rank-level duality connects a conformal block associated to one Lie algebra to a conformal block for a different Lie algebra. In this paper we prove a rank-level duality for type so(2r…
We present a complete classification and the construction of $\mathrm{Mp}(2n+2,\mathbb{R})$-equivariant differential operators acting on the principal series representations, associated to the contact projective geometry on $\mathbb{RP}^{2n+1}$ and induced from the irreducible $\mathrm{Mp}(2n,\mathbb{R})$-submodules of the Segal-Shale-Weil representation twisted by a one-parameter family of characters. The proof is based on the classification of homomorphisms of generalized Verma modules for the Segal-Shale-Weil representation twisted by a one-parameter family of characters, together with a ge…
