We introduce a variant of the much-studied $Lie$ representation of the symmetric group $S_n$, which we denote by $Lie_n^{(2)}.$ Our variant gives rise to a decomposition of the regular representation as a sum of {exterior} powers of modules…

We define, for each subset $S$ of the set $\mathcal{P}$ of primes, an $S_n$-module $Lie_n^S$ with interesting properties. $Lie_n^\emptyset$ is the well-known representation $Lie_n$ of $S_n$ afforded by the free Lie algebra, while…

Let $V$ be an $r$-dimensional vector space over an infinite field $F$ of prime characteristic $p$, and let $L_n(V)$ denote the $n$-th homogeneous component of the free Lie algebra on $V$. We study the structure of $L_n(V)$ as a module for…

Let Lie(n) be the Lie module of the symmetric group S_n over a field F of characteristic p>0, that is, Lie(n) is the left ideal of FS_n generated by the Dynkin-Specht-Wever element. We study the problem of parametrizing non-projective…

Schur modules give the irreducible polynomial representations of the general linear group $\mathrm{GL}_t$. Viewing the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_t$ as a subgroup of $\mathrm{GL}_t$, we may restrict Schur modules to $\mathfrak{S}_t$ and…

The complexity of a module is an important homological invariant that measures the polynomial rate of growth of its minimal projective resolution. For the symmetric group $\Sigma_n$, the Lie module $\mathsf{Lie}(n)$ has attracted a great…

Let G be a group, F a field of prime characteristic p and V a finite-dimensional FG-module. Let L(V) denote the free Lie algebra on V regarded as an FG-submodule of the free associative algebra (or tensor algebra) T(V). For each positive…

For a restricted Lie superalgebra g over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 2, we generalize the deformation method of Premet and Skryabin to obtain results on the p-power and 2-power divisibility of dimensions of…

Let $\mathbb K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, $A = \mathbb K[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ the polynomial ring, and let $W_n(\mathbb K)$ denote the Lie algebra of all $\mathbb K$-derivations on $A$. The Lie algebra $W_n :=…

Let $V_n=<e_1,...,e_{n+1}>$ be a vector products n-Lie algebra with n-Lie commutator $[e_1,...,\hat{e_i},...,e_{n+1}]=(-1)^ie_i$ over the field of complex numbers. Any finite-dimensional n-Lie $V_n$-module is completely reducible. Any…

One of the algebraic structures that has emerged recently in the study of the operator product expansions of chiral fields in conformal field theory is that of a Lie conformal algebra. A Lie pseudoalgebra is a generalization of the notion…

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…

This paper consists of two prongs. Firstly, we prove that any Specht module labelled by a 2-separated partition is semisimple and we completely determine its decomposition as a direct sum of graded simple modules. Secondly, we apply these…

We study the subspace of the exterior algebra of a simple complex Lie algebra linearly spanned by the copies of the little adjoint representation or, in the case of the Lie algebra of traceless matrices, by the copies of the n-th symmetric…

The Frobenius characteristic of $Lie_n,$ the representation of the symmetric group $S_n$ afforded by the multilinear component of the free Lie algebra, is known to satisfy many interesting plethystic identities. In this paper we prove a…

A class of representations of a Lie superalgebra (over a commutative superring) in its symmetric algebra is studied. As an application we get a direct and natural proof of a strong form of the Poincare'-Birkhoff-Witt theorem, extending this…

A Lie algebra $L$ is said to be $(\Theta_{n},sl_{n})$-graded if it contains a simple subalgebra $\mathfrak{g}$ isomorphic to $sl_{n}$ such that the $\mathfrak{g}$-module $L$ decomposes into copies of the adjoint module, the trivial module,…

We initiate the representation theory of restricted Lie superalgebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>2. A superalgebra generalization of the celebrated Kac-Weisfeiler Conjecture is formulated, which exhibits a…

In this work, we consider Lie algebras L containing a subalgebra isomorphic to sl3 and such that L decomposes as a module for that sl3 subalgebra into copies of the adjoint module, the natural 3-dimensional module and its dual, and the…

The modular representation theory of the queer Lie superalgebra q(n) over characteristic p>2 is developed. We obtain a criterion for the irreducibility of baby Verma modules with semisimple p-characters and a criterion for the…
