Abstract

For a permutation ww in the symmetric group Sn\mathfrak{S}_{n}, let L(w)L(w) denote the simple highest weight module in the principal block of the BGG category O\mathcal{O} for the Lie algebra sln(C)\mathfrak{sl}_{n}(\mathbb{C}). We first prove that L(w)L(w) is Kostant negative whenever ww consecutively contains certain patterns. We then provide a complete answer to Kostant's problem in type A6A_{6} and show that the indecomposability conjecture also holds in type A6A_{6}, that is, applying an indecomposable projective functor to a simple module outputs either an indecomposable module or zero.
