Howe's duality is considered from a unifying point of view based on Lie superalgebras. New examples are offered. In particular, we construct several simplest spinor-oscillator representations and compute their highest weights for the…

We establish a new Howe duality between a pair of two queer Lie superalgebras (q(m),q(n)). This gives a representation theoretic interpretation of a well-known combinatorial identity for Schur Q-functions. We further establish the…

The goal of our work is to study the decomposition of the joint action of $\mathscr{G} = \text{SpO}(2n|1)$ and $\mathfrak{g}' = \mathfrak{osp}(2|2)$ on the supersymmetric algebra $\text{S} = \text{S}(\mathbb{C}^{2n|1} \otimes…

We study the Howe dualities involving the reductive dual pairs $(O(d),spo(2m|2n))$ and $(Sp(d),osp(2m|2n))$ on the (super)symmetric tensor of $\C^d\otimes\C^{m|n}$. We obtain complete decompositions of this space with respect to their…

We consider the skew Howe duality for the action of certain dual pairs of Lie groups $(G_1, G_2)$ on the exterior algebra $\bigwedge(\mathbb{C}^{n} \otimes \mathbb{C}^{k})$ as a probability measure on Young diagrams by the decomposition…

Using Howe duality we compute explicitly Kostant-type homology groups for a wide class of representations of the infinite-dimensional Lie superalgebra $\hat{\frak{gl}}_{\infty|\infty}$ and its classical subalgebras at positive integral…

In terms of highest weights, we establish branching rules for finite dimensional unitary simple modules of the general linear Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{gl}_{m|n}$. Our proof uses the Howe duality for $\mathfrak{gl}_{m|n}$, as well as…

We establish a new Howe duality between a pair of quantum queer superalgebras $(\mathrm{U}_{q^{-1}}(\mathfrak{q}_n), \mathrm{U}_q(\mathfrak{q}_m))$. The key ingredient is the construction of a non-commutative analogue…

We classify all irreducible highest-weight unitary modules over the non-compact real form $\mathfrak{u}(p,q|n)$ of the general linear Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{gl}_{p+q|n}$. The classification is given by explicit necessary and sufficient…

The purpose of the present thesis is to give a self-contained review of the solvable Lie algebra approach to supergravity problems related with S, T and U dualities. After recalling the general features of dualities in both Superstring…

We provide formulas for the denominator and superdenominator of a basic classical type Lie superalgebra for any set of positive roots. We establish a connection between certain sets of positive roots and the theory of reductive dual pairs…

We give a $q$-analogue of Howe duality associated to a pair $(\mf{g},G)$, where $\mf{g}$ is an orthosymplectic Lie superalgebra and $G=O_\ell, Sp_{2\ell}$. We define explicitly {commuting actions} of a quantized enveloping algebra of…

In Roger Howe's 1989 paper, ``Remarks on classical invariant theory," Howe introduces the notion of a dual pair of Lie subalgebras: a pair $(\mathfrak{g}_1, \mathfrak{g}_2)$ of reductive Lie subalgebras of a Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ such…

We use super $q$-Howe duality to provide diagrammatic presentations of an idempotented form of the Hecke algebra and of categories of $\mathfrak{gl}_N$-modules (and, more generally, $\mathfrak{gl}_{N|M}$-modules) whose objects are tensor…

We give a new combinatorial interpretation of Howe dual pairs of the form $(\g,{\rm Sp}_{2\ell})$, where $\g$ is a Lie (super)algebra of classical type. This is done by establishing a symplectic analogue of the RSK algorithm associated to…

We develop a geometric approach toward an interplay between a pair of quantum Schur algebras of arbitrary finite type. Then by Beilinson-Lusztig-MacPherson's stabilization procedure in the setting of partial flag varieties of type A (resp.…

We explain how Lie superalgebras of types gl and osp provide a natural framework generalizing the classical Schur and Howe dualities. This exposition includes a discussion of super duality, which connects the parabolic categories O between…

We establish classical and categorical Howe dualities between the Lie superalgebras $\mathfrak{p}(m)$ and $\mathfrak{p}(n)$, for $m,n \geq 1$. We also describe a presentation via generators and relations as well as a Kostant…

$N=1$ supersymmetric gauge theories with global flavor symmetries contain a gauge invariant W-superalgebra which acts on its moduli space of gauge invariants. With adjoint matter, this superalgebra reduces to a graded Lie algebra. When the…

The decomposition of polynomials of one vector variable into irreducible modules for the orthogonal group is a crucial result in harmonic analysis which makes use of the Howe duality theorem and leads to the study of spherical harmonics.…
