In most applications of semi-simple Lie groups and algebras representation theory, calculating weight multiplicities is one of the most often used and effort consuming operations. The existing tools were created many years ago by Kostant…
The multiplicity of a weight $\mu$ in an irreducible representation of a simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ with highest weight $\lambda$ can be computed via the use of Kostant's weight multiplicity formula. This formula is an alternating…
Let $\mathfrak g$ be a classical Lie superalgebra of type I or a Cartan-type Lie superalgebra {\bf W}$(n)$. We study weight $\mathfrak g$-modules using a method inspired by Mathieu's classification of the simple weight modules with finite…
In this short note we announce three formulas for the set of weights of various classes of highest weight modules $\V$ with highest weight \lambda, over a complex semisimple Lie algebra $\lie{g}$ with Cartan subalgebra $\lie{h}$. These…

In this paper we study general highest weight modules $\mathbb{V}^\lambda$ over a complex finite-dimensional semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. We present three formulas for the set of weights of a large family of modules…

In this paper, we study weight representations over the Schr{\"o}dinger Lie algebra $\mathfrak{s}_n$ for any positive integer $n$. It turns out that the algebra $\mathfrak{s}_n$ can be realized by polynomial differential operators. Using…
In the paper we consider the problem of computation of characters of relatively integrable irreducible highest weight modules $L$ over finite-dimensional basic Lie superalgebras and over affine Lie superalgebras $\mathfrak{g}$. The problems…
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a finite-dimensional simple complex Lie algebra. A layer sum is introduced as the sum of formal exponentials of the distinct weights appearing in an irreducible $\mathfrak{g}$-module. It is argued that the character of…
We classify irreducible finite-dimensional modules of a collection of real Lie superalgebras that includes the simple ones, their classical variants, complex Lie superalgebras after restriction of scalars, and all real Lie algebras. Our…
For each integer $t>0$ and each complex simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, we determine the least dimension of an irreducible highest weight representation of $\mathfrak{g}$ whose highest weight has height $t$. As a corollary, we classify…
We present `liesuperalg` a SageMath package for representation-theoretic calculations involving Lie superalgebras in Type A. Our package introduces functionality to calculate invariants of weights and produce the associated cup diagrams. We…
We give a new interpretation of representation theory of the finite-dimensional half-integer weight modules over the queer Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{q}(n)$. It is given in terms of Brundan's work of finite-dimensional integer weight…
A bivariate representation of a complex simple Lie algebra is an irreducible representation having highest weight a combination of the first two fundamental weights. For a complex classical Lie algebra, we establish an expression for the…
Let $G$ be a compact semisimple Lie group and $T$ be a maximal torus of $G$. We describe a method for weight multiplicity computation in unitary irreducible representations of $G$, based on the theory of Berezin quantization on $G/T$. Let…
