Abstract

We study the truncated shifted Yangian Yn,l(σ)Y_{n,l}(\sigma) over an algebraically closed field k\mathbb{k} of characteristic p>0p > 0, which is known to be isomorphic to the finite WW-algebra U(g,e)U(\mathfrak{g}, e) associated to a corresponding nilpotent element eg=glN(k)e\in \mathfrak{g} = \mathfrak{gl}_N(\mathbb{k}). We obtain an explicit description of the centre of Yn,l(σ)Y_{n,l}(\sigma), showing that it is generated by its Harish-Chandra centre and its pp-centre. We define Yn,l[p](σ)Y_{n,l}^{[p]}(\sigma) to be the quotient of Yn,l(σ)Y_{n,l}(\sigma) by the ideal generated by the kernel of trivial character of its pp-centre. Our main theorem states that Yn,l[p](σ)Y_{n,l}^{[p]}(\sigma) is isomorphic to the restricted finite WW-algebra U[p](g,e)U^{[p]}(\mathfrak{g},e). As a consequence we obtain an explicit presentation of this restricted WW-algebra.
