Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a complex simple Lie algebra. A simple $\mathfrak{g}$-module is called minimal if the associated variety of its annihilator ideal coincides with the closure of the minimal nilpotent coadjoint orbit. The main result of…

In this paper, we study Clifford algebra construction from the perspective of adjunctions motivated by the general framework of Krashen and Lieblich. We introduce a category of weighted polynomial laws whose associated Clifford algebra…

These notes are based on a course given at the EPFL in May 2005. It is concerned with the representation theory of Hecke algebras in the non-semisimple case. We explain the role that these algebras play in the modular representation theory…

Lusztig $q$-weight multiplicities extend the Kostka-Foulkes polynomials to a broader range of Lie types. In this work, we investigate these multiplicities through the framework of Kirillov-Reshetikhin crystals. Specifically, for type $C$…

A new proof for adjoint systems of linear equations is presented. The argument is built on the principles of Algorithmic Differentiation. Application to scalar multiplication sets the base line. Generalization yields adjoint inner vector,…

The article concerns the subalgebra U_v^+(w) of the quantized universal enveloping algebra of the complex Lie algebra sl_{n+1} associated with a particular Weyl group element of length 2n. We verify that U_v^+(w) can be endowed with the…

Let U be the quantum group associated to a Lie algebra of type A_n. The negative part U^- of U has a canonical basis B defined by Lusztig and Kashiwara, with favourable properties. We show how the spanning vectors of the cones defined by…

Following Lusztig, we consider a Coxeter group $W$ together with a weight function $L$. This gives rise to the pre-order relation $\leq_{L}$ and the corresponding partition of $W$ into left cells. We introduce an equivalence relation on…

This article is the second in the series and is devoted to the type G_2. The work consists of two parts. In the first part we calculate the structure constants of the complex simple Lie algebra of type G_2. All structure constants are…

Drinfeld twists, and the twists of Giaquinto and Zhang, allow for algebras and their modules to be deformed by a cocycle. We prove general results about cocycle twists of algebra factorisations and induced representations and apply them to…

We prove an explicit inverse Chevalley formula in the equivariant $K$-theory of semi-infinite flag manifolds of simply-laced type. By an inverse Chevalley formula, we mean a formula for the product of an equivariant scalar with a Schubert…

In a previous paper I have defined a new basis for the representation ring of a Weyl group. In this paper we show that the new basis is related to the standard basis by an upper triangular unipotent matrix. We also give a new…

The main results of this paper are accessible with only basic linear algebra. Given an increasing sequence of dimensions, a flag in a vector space is an increasing sequence of subspaces with those dimensions. The set of all such flags (the…

Humphreys' conjecture on blocks parametrises the blocks of reduced enveloping algebras $U_\chi({\mathfrak g})$, where ${\mathfrak g}$ is the Lie algebra of a reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic…

We study canonical basis elements in higher-level Fock spaces associated with the quantum group $U_q(\mathfrak{gl}_\infty)$, which are conjecturally related to Calogero-Moser theory for complex reflection groups. We generalize the…

We give a description of the construction of Chevalley supergroups, providing some explanatory examples. We avoid the discussion of the $A(1,1)$, $P(3)$ and $Q(n)$ cases, for which our construction holds, but the exposition becomes more…

Let $\g$ be a complex orthogonal or symplectic Lie algebra and $\g'\subset \g$ the Lie subalgebra of rank $\rk \g'=\rk \g-1$ of the same type. We give an explicit construction of generators of the Mickelsson algebra $Z_q(\g,\g')$ in terms…

In this paper, we define locally convex vector spaces of weighted vector fields and use them as model spaces for Lie groups of weighted diffeomorphisms on Riemannian manifolds. We prove an easy condition on the weights that ensures that…

We prove that for any known Lie algebra $\frak{g}$ having none invariants for the coadjoint representation, the absence of invariants is equivalent to the existence of a left invariant exact symplectic structure on the corresponding Lie…

According to a conjecture of Lusztig, the asymptotic affine Hecke algebra should admit a description in terms of the Grothedieck group of sheaves on the square of a finite set equivariant under the action of the centralizer of a nilpotent…
