We consider the semigroup S of highest weights appearing in tensor powers V^k of a finite dimensional representation V of a connected reductive group. We describe the cone generated by S as the cone over the weight polytope of V intersected…

There is a correspondence between highest weight vectors in the tensor product of finite-dimensional irreducible sl(N+1)-modules marked by distinct complex numbers, on the one hand, and elements of the intersection of the Schubert varieties…

In this paper, we calculate the space $Ext^1_{GL(n)}(L_n(\lambda),L_n(\mu))$, where GL(n) is the general linear group of degree $n$ over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic, $L_n(\lambda)$ and $L_n(\mu)$ are rational…

Following the work of Venkatesh (arXiv:2203.03158), we study further the categories of representations of the general linear groups $GL(X)$ in the Verlinde category $Ver_p$ in characteristic $p$. The main question we answer is how to…

Lascoux polynomials have been recently introduced to prove polynomiality of the maximum-likelihood degree of linear concentration models. We find the leading coefficient of the Lascoux polynomials (type C) and their generalizations to the…

Geometric complexity theory (GCT) is an approach towards separating algebraic complexity classes through algebraic geometry and representation theory. Originally Mulmuley and Sohoni proposed (SIAM J Comput 2001, 2008) to use occurrence…

Let $\lambda$, $\mu$, $\nu$ and $\rho$ be dominant weights of $\mathfrak{sl_n}$ satisfying $\lambda + \mu = \nu + \rho$. Let $V_{\lambda}$ denote the highest weight module corresponding to $\lambda$. Lam, Postnikov, Pylyavskyy conjectured a…

This paper proves a combinatorial rule giving all maximal and minimal partitions $\lambda$ such that the Schur function $s_\lambda$ appears in a plethysm of two arbitrary Schur functions. Determining the decomposition of these plethysms has…

This is the first in a series of papers in which we describe explicit structural properties of spaces of diagonal rectangular harmonic polynomials in $k$ sets of $n$ variables, both as $GL_k$-modules and $S_n$-modules, as well as some of…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a complex Kac-Moody algebra, with Cartan subalgebra $\mathfrak{h}$. Also fix a weight $\lambda\in\mathfrak{h}^*$. For $M(\lambda)\twoheadrightarrow V$ an arbitrary highest weight $\mathfrak{g}$-module, we provide a…

We define highest weight categorical actions of sl_2 on highest weight categories and show that basically all known examples of categorical sl_2-actions on highest weight categories (including rational and polynomial representations of…

For each r = (r_1, r_2,...,r_N) we construct a highest weight module M_r of the Lie algebra W_{1+infty}. The highest weight vectors are specific tau-functions of the N-th Gelfand--Dickey hierarchy. We show that these modules are quasifinite…

For a simple Lie superalgebra of type BDFG, we give explicit formulas for singular vectors in a Verma module of highest weight $\lambda - \rho$, which have weight $s_{\gamma}\lambda - \rho$ for certain positive non-isotropic roots $\gamma.$…

Let S be a principally embedded sl_2 subalgebra in sl_n for n > 2. A special case of results of the third author and Gregg Zuckerman implies that there exists a positive integer b(n) such that for any finite-dimensional irreducible sl_n…

Two classes of irreducible highest weight modules of the general linear Lie superalgebra $gl(1/\infty)$ are constructed. Within each module a basis is introduced and the transformation relations of the basis under the action of the algebra…

Highest weight categories are an abstraction of the representation theory of semisimple Lie algebras introduced by Cline, Parshall and Scott in the late 1980s. There are by now many characterisations of when an abelian category is highest…

The properties of highest-weight representations of the N=2 superconformal algebra in two dimensions can be considerably simplified when re-expressed in terms of relaxed ^sl(2) representations. This applies to the appearance of submodules…

We use Gelfand-Tsetlin diagrams to write down the weight multiplicity function for the Lie algebra sl_k(C) (type A_{k-1}) as a single partition function. This allows us to apply known results about partition functions to derive interesting…

Let $L((n-\tfrac 3 2)\Lambda_0)$, $n \in \Bbb N$, be a vertex operator algebra associated to the irreducible highest weight module $L((n-\tfrac 3 2)\Lambda_0)$ for a symplectic affine Lie algebra. We find a complete set of irreducible…
