Abstract

We continue our work (started in ``Multiplicity-free representations of algebraic groups", arXiv:2101.04476), on the program of classifying triples (X,Y,V)(X,Y,V), where X,YX,Y are simple algebraic groups over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero with X<YX<Y, and VV is an irreducible module for YY such that the restriction VXV\downarrow X is multiplicity-free. In this paper we handle the case where XX is of type AA, and is irreducibly embedded in YY of type B,CB,C or DD. It turns out that there are relatively few triples for XX of arbitrary rank, but a number of interesting exceptional examples arise for small ranks.
