The decomposition of the tensor product of a positive and a negative discrete series representation of the Lie algebra su(1,1) is a direct integral over the principal unitary series representations. In the decomposition discrete terms can…
Let $G$ be the general linear group of degree $n$ over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p>0$. We study the $m$-fold tensor product $\bar{S}(E)^{\otimes m}$ of the truncated symmetric algebra $\bar{S}(E)$ of the symmetric…
For the Klein-Four Group $G$ and a perfect field $k$ of characteristic two we determine all indecomposable symplectic $kG$-modules, that is, $kG$-modules with a symplectic, $G$-invariant form which do not decompose into smaller such…
We re-express the quantum Calogero-Sutherland model for the Lie algebra E7 and the particular value of the coupling constant K=1 by using the fundamental irreducible characters of the algebra as dynamical variables. For that, we need to…
We study torsors under finite group schemes over the punctured spectrum of a singularity $x\in X$ in positive characteristic. We show that the Dieudonn\'e module of the (loc,loc)-part $\mathrm{Picloc}^{\mathrm{loc},\mathrm{loc}}_{X/k}$ of…
Dave Benson conjectured in 2020 that if $G$ is a finite $2$-group and $V$ is an odd-dimensional indecomposable representation of $G$ over an algebraically closed field $\Bbbk$ of characteristic $2$, then the only odd-dimensional…
This paper describes Clebsch-Gordan coefficients (CGCs) for unitary irreducible representations (UIRs) of the extended quantum mechanical Poincar\'e group $\pt$. `Extended' refers to the extension of the 10 parameter Lie group that is the…
Given an positive integer $k$, let $n:=\binom{k+1}{2}$. In 2012, during a talk at UCLA, Jan Saxl conjectured that all irreducible representations of the symmetric group $S_n$ occur in the decomposition of the tensor square of the…
For polynomial representations of $GL_n$ of a fixed degree, H. Krause defined a new internal tensor product using the language of strict polynomial functors. We show that over an arbitrary commutative base ring $k$, the Schur functor…
We consider integrable, category O-modules of indecomposable symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebras. We prove that unique factorization of tensor products of irreducible modules holds in this category, upto twisting by one dimensional modules.…
In this paper we study irreducible tensor products of representations of alternating groups in characteristics 2 and 3. In characteristic 3 we completely classify irreducible tensor products, while in characteristic 2 we completely classify…
Let $A(1):=k[X]/(X^p)$ be the natural representation of the Witt algebra $W(1)$ over an algebraically closed field of prime characteristic $p>3$. In this note, we decompose the $W(1)$-module $A(1)\otimes A(1)$ into two invariant subspaces,…
We determine the necessary and sufficient combinatorial conditions for which the tensor product of two irreducible polynomial representations of $GL(n,\mathbb{C})$ is isomorphic to another. As a consequence we discover families of…
Over a one-dimensional Gorenstein local domain $R$, let $E$ be the endomorphism ring of the maximal of $R$, viewed as a subring of the integral closure $\overline R$. If there exist finitely generated $R$-modules $M$ and $N$, neither of…
The congruence subgroup property is established for the modular representations associated to any modular tensor category. This result is used to prove that the kernel of the representation of the modular group on the conformal blocks of…

We recall the structure of the indecomposable sl(2) modules in the Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand category O. We show that all these modules can arise as quantized phase spaces of physical models. In particular, we demonstrate in a path integral…
Let G be a reductive complex algebraic group and V a finite-dimensional G-module. From elements of the invariant algebra C[V]^G we obtain by polarization elements of C[kV]^G, where k\geq 1 and kV denotes the direct sum of k copies of V. For…
A class of Clebsch-Gordan coefficients are derived from the properties of conditional probability using the binomial distribution. In particular, in the case of $l=l_1+l_2$ it is shown that $$[<l_1/2-k_1, l_2/2-k_2|l/2, k=k_1+k_2]>^2…
Given a semi-simple algebra equipped with a coproduct, the Clebsch--Gordan coefficients are the elements of the transition matrices between direct product representation and its irreducible decomposition. It is well known that the…
