In this paper, we generalize a result by Berman and Billig on weight modules over Lie algebras with polynomial multiplication. More precisely, we show that a highest weight module with an exp-polynomial ``highest weight'' has finite…
For any root system of rank $r$, we study the "dominant weight polytope" $P^\lambda$ associated with a strongly dominant weight $\lambda$. We prove that $P^\lambda$ is combinatorially equivalent to the $r$-dimensional cube. As an…
We study the maximum weight convex polytope problem, in which the goal is to find a convex polytope maximizing the total weight of enclosed points. Prior to this work, the only known result for this problem was an $O(n^3)$ algorithm for the…
Given a $(k+1)$-tuple $A, B_1,...,B_k$ of $(m\times n)$-matrices with $m\le n$ we call the set of all $k$-tuples of complex numbers $\{\la_1,...,\la_k\}$ such that the linear combination $A+\la_1B_1+\la_2B_2+...+\la_kB_k$ has rank smaller…
We study SL(N,R) Chern-Simons gauge theories in three dimensions. The choice of the embedding of SL(2,R) in SL(N,R), together with asymptotic boundary conditions, defines a theory of higher spin gravity. Each inequivalent embedding leads to…
We calculate Ext^*_{SL_2(k)}(\Delta(\lambda), \Delta(\mu)), Ext^*_{SL_2(k)}(L(\lambda), \Delta(\mu)), Ext^*_{SL_2(k)}(\Delta(\lambda), L(\mu)), and Ext^*_{SL_2(k)}(L(\lambda), L(\mu)), where \Delta(\lambda) is the Weyl module of highest…
We define Weyl functors, global modules for equivariant map Lie superalgebras $(\g \otimes A)^{\Gamma}$, where $\g$ is basic classical $\mathbb{C}$- Lie superalgebra and $A$ is an associative commutative unital $\mathbb{C}$-algebra. Under…
We describe recent work of Klyachko, Totaro, Knutson, and Tao, that characterizes eigenvalues of sums of Hermitian matrices, and decomposition of tensor products of representations of $GL_n(\mathbb{C})$. We explain related applications to…
We define analogues of Verma modules for finite W-algebras. By the usual ideas of highest weight theory, this is a first step towards the classification of finite dimensional irreducible modules. Motivated by known results in type A, we…
We continue our study of Hilbert space representations of the Reflection Equation Algebra, again focusing on the algebra constructed from the $R$-matrix associated to the $q$-deformation of $GL(N,\mathbb{C})$ for $0<q<1$. We develop a form…
Flat-space holography requires a thorough understanding of BMS symmetry. We introduce an oscillator construction of the highest-weight representation of the $\mathfrak{bms}_3$ algebra and show that it is consistent with known results…
We give new combinatorial formulae for vector-valued weight functions (off-shell nested Bethe vectors) for the evaluation modules over the Yangian $Y(\mathfrak{gl}_4)$. The case of $Y(\mathfrak{gl}_n)$ for an arbitrary $n$ is considered in…
Let $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{g}_{\bar0}+\mathfrak{g}_{\bar1}$ be a basic classical Lie superalgebra over $\mathbb{C}$, and $e=e_{\theta}\in\mathfrak{g}_{\bar0}$ with $-\theta$ being a minimal root of $\mathfrak{g}$. Set $U(\mathfrak{g},e)$…
The work is a brief review of the theory based on the $SU(3)_c \otimes SU(3)_L \otimes U(1)_X$ gauge group in the presence of Heavy Leptons. Recent analysis have established a set of four possible variants for the 3-3-1HL, whose content…
Let $q$ be a prime power, $G=GL_n(q)$ and let $U\leqslant G$ be the subgroup of (lower) unitriangular matrices in $G$. For a partition $\lambda$ of $n$ denote the corresponding unipotent Specht module over the complex field $\C$ for $G$ by…
We revisit the study of the multiplets of the conformal algebra in any dimension. The theory of highest weight representations is reviewed in the context of the Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand category of modules. The Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials…
An irreducible representation of a reductive Lie algebra, when restricted to a Cartan subalgebra, decomposes into weights with multiplicity. The first part of this paper outlines a procedure to compute symmetric polynomials (e.g., power…
We give expressions for the singular vectors in the highest weight representations of the Virasoro algebra. We verify that the expressions --- which take the form of a product of operators applied to the highest weight vector --- do indeed…
We develop a theory of weights for a quantum analogue of the symmetric pair (gl4,gl2 x gl2) realised as a quantum symmetric pair subalgebra. Based on Letzter's triangular decomposition we define Verma modules. Using magical operators that…
In this paper, we investigate the highest weight representation (HWR) of the three and four-dimensional Bondi-Metzner-Sachs (BMS) algebra realized on the codimension-two boundary of asymptotic flat spacetime (AFS). In such a realization,…
