La formule de Plancherel pour les groupes de Lie presque algébriques réels

We give a proof of the Plancherel formula for real almost algebraic groups in the philosophy of the orbit method, following the lines of the one given by M. Duflo and M. Vergne for simply connected semisimple Lie groups. Main ingredients are: (1) Harish-Chandra's descent method which, interpreting Plancherel formula as an equality of semi-invariant generalized functions, allows one to reduce it to a neighbourhood of zero in the Lie algebra of the centralizer of any elliptic element; (2) character formula for representations constructed by M. Duflo, we recently proved; (3) Poisson-Plancherel formula near elliptic elements s in good position, a generalization of the classical Poisson summation formula expressing the Fourier transform of the sum of a series of Harish-Chandra type elliptic orbital integrals in the Lie algebra centralizing s as a generalized function supported on a set of admissible regular forms in the dual of this Lie algebra.     

Nonzero level Harish-Chandra modules over the Virasoro-like algebra

In the present paper, we study the nonzero level Harish-Chandra modules for the Virasoro-like algebra. We prove that a nonzero level Harish-Chandra module of the Virasoro-like algebra is a generalized highest weight (GHW for short) module. Then we prove that a GHW module of the Virasoro-like algebra is induced from an irreducible module of a Heisenberg subalgebra.     

Analogue Zhelobenko invariants, Bernstein–Gelfand–Gelfand operators and the Kostant Clifford algebra conjecture

Let $ \mathfrak{g} $ be a complex simple Lie algebra. The Kostant Clifford algebra conjecture can be formulated and somewhat extended as a question [7, Conj. 1.3] concerning the Harish-Chandra map for the enveloping algebra of $ \mathfrak{g} $ . In that work [7, Cor. 8.8] an analogue Kostant conjecture, obtained by replacing the Harish-Chandra map by a ??generalized Harish-Chandra?? map, was proved using a careful analysis of Zhelobenko invariants which describe the image of this map. In the present work we establish [7, Conj. 1.3] by showing that there are analogue Zhelobenko invariants which describe the image of the Harish-Chandra map. Following this a similar proof to that of [7, Cor. 8.8] goes through. In the last section a rather precise form of the Kostant Clifford algebra conjecture is established.     

Pointed representations of Virasoro algebra

In this paper we study the pointed representations of the Virasoro algebra. We show that unitary irreducible pointed representations of the Virasoro algebra are Harish-Chandra representations, thus they either are of highest or lowest weights or have all weight spaces of dimension 1. Further, we prove that unitary irreducible weight representations of Virasoro superalgebras are either of highest weights or of lowest weights, hence they are also Harish-Chandra representations.

The Cauchy Harish-Chandra Integral, for the pair \mathfrak{u}_{p,q} ,\mathfrak{u}_1

For the dual pair considered, the Cauchy Harish-Chandra Integral, as a distribution on the Lie algebra, is the limit of the holomorphic extension of the reciprocal of the determinant. We compute that limit explicitly in terms of the Harish-Chandra orbital integrals.      

Classification of harish-chandra modules over the super-virasoro algebras

In this paper, we first construct all indecomposable modules whose dimensions of weight spaces of the even and odd parts are ≤ 1, then classify all Harish-Chandra module over the super-Virasoro algebras, proving that every Harish-Chandra module over the super-Virasoro algebras is either a highest or lowest weight module, or else a module of the intermediate series. This result generalizes a theorem which was originally given as a conjecture by Kac on the Virasoro algebra.     

On the Center of the Brauer Algebra

Using the determination of conjugacy classes in an earlier paper, we study the center of the Brauer algebra. In the case of finite groups, conjugacy class sums determine the center of the group algebra. In the case of the Brauer algebra the corresponding class sums only yield a basis of the centralizer of the symmetric group in the Brauer algebra. However, we exhibit an explicit algorithm to determine conditions for a centralizer element to be central and show how to compute a basis for the center using these methods. We will outline how this can be used to compute blocks over fields of arbitrary characteristic. We will also show that similar methods can be applied for computing a basis of the center of the walled Brauer algebra.

Harish-Chandra modules over generalized Heisenberg-Virasoro algebras

In this paper, we give a complete classification of irreducible Harish-Chandra modules for any generalized Heisenberg-Virasoro algebra. In particular, we present a simpler and more conceptual proof of the classification of irreducible Harish-Chandra modules over the classical Heisenberg-Virasoro algebra, which was first obtained by Rencai Lu and Kaiming Zhao in [LZ1]. Our methods are based on the ideas of polynomial modules from [B1, BB].     

Irreducible weight modules over the twisted Schrödinger-Virasoro algebra

It is shown that the support of an irreducible weight module over the SchrSdinger-Virasoro Lie algebra with an infinite-dimensional weight space coincides with the weight lattice, and all nontrivial weight spaces of such a module are infinite-dimensional. As a by-product, it is obtained that every simple weight module over Lie algebra of this type with a nontrivial finite-dimensional weight space is a Harish-Chandra module.     

On a New High Dimensional Weisfeiler-Lehman Algorithm

We investigate the following problem: how different can a cellular algebra be from its Schurian closure, i.e., the centralizer algebra of its automorphism group? For this purpose we introduce the notion of a Schurian polynomial approximation scheme measuring this difference. Some natural examples of such schemes arise from high dimensional generalizations of the Weisfeiler-Lehman algorithm which constructs the cellular closure of a set of matrices. We prove that all of these schemes are dominated by a new Schurian polynomial approximation scheme defined by the m-closure operators. A sufficient condition for the m-closure of a cellular algebra to coincide with its Schurian closure is given.     

Infinite-dimensional 3-Lie algebras and their connections to Harish-Chandra modules

We construct two kinds of infinite-dimensional 3-Lie algebras from a given commutative associative algebra, and show that they are all canonical Nambu 3-Lie algebras. We relate their inner derivation algebras to Witt algebras, and then study the regular representations of these 3-Lie algebras and the natural representations of the inner derivation algebras. In particular, for the second kind of 3-Lie algebras, we find that their regular representations are Harish-Chandra modules, and the inner derivation algebras give rise to intermediate series modules of the Witt algebras and contain the smallest full toroidal Lie algebras without center.     

Classification of simple weight Virasoro modules with a finite-dimensional weight space

We show that the support of a simple weight module over the Virasoro algebra, which has an infinite-dimensional weight space, coincides with the weight lattice and that all non-trivial weight spaces of such module are infinite-dimensional. As a corollary we obtain that every simple weight module over the Virasoro algebra, having a non-trivial finite-dimensional weight space, is a Harish-Chandra module (and hence is either a simple highest or lowest weight module or a simple module from the intermediate series). This implies positive answers to two conjectures about simple pointed and simple mixed modules over the Virasoro algebra.

The Cartan matrix of a centralizer algebra

The centralizer algebra of a matrix consists of those matrices that commute with it. We investigate the basic representation-theoretic invariants of centralizer algebras, namely their radicals, projective indecomposable modules, injective indecomposable modules, simple modules and Cartan matrices. With the help of our Cartan matrix calculations we determine their global dimensions. Many of these algebras are of infinite global dimension.     

The Partition Algebra as a Centralizer Algebra of the Alternating Group

ABSTRACT

In this article, we focus on the result of V.F.R. Jones which says that the partition algebra is the algebra of all transformations commuting with the action of the symmetric group on tensor products of its permutation representation. In particular, we restrict the action of the symmetric group to the action of the alternating group. In this context, we compute a basis for the centralizer algebra and show when the centralizer is isomorphic to the partition algebra.     

Jacquet modules and Dirac cohomology

We show that Dirac cohomology of the Jacquet module of a Harish-Chandra module is a Harish-Chandra module for the corresponding Levi subgroup. We obtain an explicit formula of Dirac cohomology of the Jacquet module for most of the principal series, based on our determination of Dirac cohomology of irreducible generalized Verma modules with regular infinitesimal characters.     

Eigenvalues of Bethe vectors in the Gaudin model

According to the Feigin–Frenkel–Reshetikhin theorem, the eigenvalues of higher Gaudin Hamiltonians on Bethe vectors can be found using the center of an affine vertex algebra at the critical level. We recently calculated explicit Harish-Chandra images of the generators of the center in all classical types. Combining these results leads to explicit formulas for the eigenvalues of higher Gaudin Hamiltonians on Bethe vectors. The Harish-Chandra images can be interpreted as elements of classical W-algebras. By calculating classical limits of the corresponding screening operators, we elucidate a direct connection between the rings of q-characters and classical W-algebras.     

Discriminant and Clifford algebras

The centralizer of a square-central skew-symmetric unit in a central simple algebra with orthogonal involution carries a unitary involution. The discriminant algebra of this unitary involution is shown to be an orthogonal summand in one of the components of the Clifford algebra of the orthogonal involution. As an application, structure theorems for orthogonal involutions on central simple algebras of degree 8 are obtained.
