Tensor Product Weight Representations of the Neveu–Schwarz Algebra

We study the tensor product of a highest weight module with an intermediate series module over the Neveu–Schwarz algebra. If the highest weight module is nontrivial, the weight spaces of such a tensor product are infinite dimensional. We show that such a tensor product is indecomposable. Using a “shifting technique” developed by H. Chen, X. Guo, and K. Zhao for the Virasoro algebra case, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for such a tensor product to be irreducible. Furthermore, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for two such tensor products to be isomorphic.     

Weyl modules,Demazure modules and finite crystals for non-simply laced type

We show that every Weyl module for a current algebra has a filtration whose successive quotients are isomorphic to Demazure modules, and that the path model for a tensor product of level zero fundamental representations is isomorphic to a disjoint union of Demazure crystals. Moreover, we show that the Demazure modules appearing in these two objects coincide exactly. Though these results have been previously known in the simply laced case, they are new in the non-simply laced case.     

Hopf structures on ambiskew polynomial rings

We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for an ambiskew polynomial ring to have a Hopf algebra structure of a certain type. This construction generalizes many known Hopf algebras, for example U(sl₂), U_q(sl₂) and the enveloping algebra of the three-dimensional Heisenberg Lie algebra. In a torsion-free case we describe the finite-dimensional simple modules, in particular their dimensions, and prove a Clebsch-Gordan decomposition theorem for the tensor product of two simple modules. We construct a Casimir type operator and prove that any finite-dimensional weight module is semisimple.     

Characters of Simple Bounded Modules over an Untwisted Affine Lie Algebra

After V. Chari and A. Pressley, a simple integrable module with finite-dimensional weight spaces over an affine Lie algebra is either a standard module (highest or lowest weight), in which case its formal character is given by the famous Weyl–Kac formula, or a subquotient of a tensor product of loop modules. In this paper we compute formal characters of generic simple integrable modules of the latter type.     

Average case tractability of non-homogeneous tensor product problems with the absolute error criterion

We study average case tractability of non-homogeneous tensor product problems with the absolute error criterion. We consider algorithms that use finitely many evaluations of arbitrary linear functionals. For general non-homogeneous tensor product problems, we obtain the matching necessary and sufficient conditions for strong polynomial tractability in terms of the one-dimensional eigenvalues. We give some examples to show that strong polynomial tractability is not equivalent to polynomial tractability, and polynomial tractability is not equivalent to quasi-polynomial tractability. But for non-homogeneous tensor product problems with decreasing eigenvalues, we prove that strong polynomial tractability is always equivalent to polynomial tractability, and strong polynomial tractability is even equivalent to quasi-polynomial tractability when the one-dimensional largest eigenvalues are less than one. In particular, we find an example that quasi-polynomial tractability with the absolute error criterion is not equivalent to that with the normalized error criterion even if all the one-dimensional largest eigenvalues are one. Finally we consider a special class of non-homogeneous tensor product problems with improved monotonicity condition of the eigenvalues.     

Graded Limits of Simple Tensor Product of Kirillov–Reshetikhin Modules for

We study graded limits of simple -modules which are isomorphic to tensor products of Kirillov–Reshetikhin modules associated to a fixed fundamental weight. We prove that every such module admits a graded limit which is isomorphic to the fusion product of the graded limits of its tensor factors. Moreover, using recent results of Naoi, we exhibit a set of defining relations for these graded limits.     

Simple modules for groups with abelian Sylow 2-subgroups are algebraic

An algebraic module is a KG-module that satisfies a polynomial with integer coefficients, with addition and multiplication given by direct sum and tensor product. In this article we prove that if G is a group with abelian Sylow 2-subgroups and K is a field of characteristic 2, then every simple KG-module is algebraic.     

On the tensor product of well generated dg categories

We endow the homotopy category of well generated (pretriangulated) dg categories with a tensor product satisfying a universal property. The resulting monoidal structure is symmetric and closed with respect to the cocontinuous RHom of dg categories (in the sense of Toën [32]). We give a construction of the tensor product in terms of localisations of dg derived categories, making use of the enhanced derived Gabriel-Popescu theorem [27]. Given a regular cardinal α, we define and construct a tensor product of homotopically α-cocomplete dg categories and prove that the well generated tensor product of α-continuous derived dg categories (in the sense of [27]) is the α-continuous dg derived category of the homotopically α-cocomplete tensor product. In particular, this shows that the tensor product of well generated dg categories preserves α-compactness.     

Symmetric Group Modules with Specht and Dual Specht Filtrations

The author and Nakano recently proved that multiplicities in a Specht filtration of a symmetric group module are well-defined precisely when the characteristic is at least five. This result suggested the possibility of a symmetric group theory analogous to that of good filtrations and tilting modules for GL _n (k). This article is an initial attempt at such a theory. We obtain two sufficient conditions that ensure a module has a Specht filtration, and a formula for the filtration multiplicities. We then study the categories of modules that satisfy the conditions, in the process obtaining a new result on Specht module cohomology.

Next we consider symmetric group modules that have both Specht and dual Specht filtrations. Unlike tilting modules for GL _n (k), these modules need not be self-dual, and there is no nice tensor product theorem. We prove a correspondence between indecomposable self-dual modules with Specht filtrations and a collection of GL _n (k)-modules which behave like tilting modules under the tilting functor. We give some evidence that indecomposable self-dual symmetric group modules with Specht filtrations may be indecomposable self dual trivial source modules.     

Algebraic modules and the Auslander-Reiten quiver

Recall that an algebraic module is a KG-module that satisfies a polynomial with integer coefficients, with addition and multiplication given by the direct sum and tensor product. In this article we prove that non-periodic algebraic modules are very rare, and that if the complexity of an algebraic module is at least 3, then it is the only algebraic module on its component of the (stable) Auslander-Reiten quiver. For dihedral 2-groups, we also show that there is at most one algebraic module on each component of the (stable) Auslander-Reiten quiver. We include a strong conjecture on the relationship between periodicity and algebraicity.     

L-R-Twisted Tensor Products of Nonlocal Vertex Algebras and Their Modules

In this article, we introduce and study a common generalization of the twisted tensor product construction of nonlocal vertex algebras and their modules. We investigate some properties of this new construction; for instance, we give the relations between L-R-twisted tensor product nonlocal vertex algebras and twisted tensor product vertex algebras. Furthermore, we find the conditions for constructing an iterated L-R-twisted tensor product nonlocal vertex algebra and its module.     

Stabilized plethysms for the classical Lie groups

The plethysms of the Weyl characters associated to a classical Lie group by the symmetric functions stabilize in large rank. In the case of a power sum plethysm, we prove that the coefficients of the decomposition of this stabilized form on the basis of Weyl characters are branching coefficients which can be determined by a simple algorithm. This generalizes in particular some classical results by Littlewood on the power sum plethysms of Schur functions. We also establish explicit formulas for the outer multiplicities appearing in the decomposition of the tensor square of any irreducible finite-dimensional module into its symmetric and antisymmetric parts. These multiplicities can notably be expressed in terms of the Littlewood-Richardson coefficients.     

Tensor powers of symmetric algebras

We prove that over an integral domain a module is projective iff an appropriate tensor power of its symmetric algebra is an integral domain. Further, we show that contracting parts of primary decom­positions of the zero ideal in appropriate tensor powers of a symmetric algebra one obtains families of ideals canonically associated to a mod­ule, having the same radical as Fitting ideals. More precisely, we prove that those new ideals lie between the annihilators of exterior powers of the module and their radicals. An immediate consequence of our re­sults is a way to recover the radicals of Fitting ideals of a module from the symmetric algebra of that module (with its grading forgotten).     

The 1/N Expansion of Multi-Orientable Random Tensor Models

Multi-orientable group field theory (GFT) was introduced in Tanasa (J Phys A 45:165401, 2012), as a quantum field theoretical simplification of GFT, which retains a larger class of tensor graphs than the colored one. In this paper we define the associated multi-orientable identically independent distributed multi-orientable tensor model and we derive its 1/N expansion. In order to obtain this result, a partial classification of general tensor graphs is performed and the combinatorial notion of jacket is extended to the m.o. graphs. We prove that the leading sector is given, as in the case of colored models, by the so-called melon graphs.     

Solution to the Clebsch-Gordan problem for string algebras

The category of modules over a string algebra is equipped with a tensor product defined point-wise and arrow-wise in terms of the underlying quiver. In the present article we investigate how this tensor product interacts with the classification of indecomposables. We apply the results obtained to solve the Clebsch-Gordan problem for string algebras. Moreover, we describe the corresponding representation ring and tensor ideals in the module category.     

On the Hochschild cohomology ring of tensor products of algebras

We prove that, as Gerstenhaber algebras, the Hochschild cohomology ring of the tensor product of two algebras is isomorphic to the tensor product of the respective Hochschild cohomology rings of these two algebras, when at least one of them is finite dimensional. In case of finite dimensional symmetric algebras, this isomorphism is an isomorphism of Batalin–Vilkovisky algebras. As an application, we explain by examples how to compute the Batalin–Vilkovisky structure, in particular, the Gerstenhaber Lie bracket, over the Hochschild cohomology ring of the group algebra of a finite abelian group.     

Monotonicity preserving representations of non-polynomial surfaces

We prove that, in contrast to the case for rational surfaces, some tensor product representations through spaces containing algebraic, trigonometric and hyperbolic polynomials are monotonicity preserving. The surface representations provided in this paper are the only known monotonicity preserving surfaces in addition to the tensor product Bézier and tensor product B-spline surfaces.     

On the concepts of intertwining operator and tensor product module in vertex operator algebra theory

We produce counterexamples to show that in the definition of the notion of intertwining operator for modules for a vertex operator algebra, the commutator formula cannot in general be used as a replacement axiom for the Jacobi identity. We further give a sufficient condition for the commutator formula to imply the Jacobi identity in this definition. Using these results we illuminate the crucial role of the condition called the “compatibility condition” in the construction of the tensor product module in vertex operator algebra theory, as carried out in work of Huang and Lepowsky. In particular, we prove by means of suitable counterexamples that the compatibility condition was indeed needed in this theory.     

Convergence of a transition probability tensor of a higher‐order Markov chain to the stationary probability vector

In this paper, first we introduce a new tensor product for a transition probability tensor originating from a higher‐order Markov chain. Subsequently, some properties of the new tensor product are explained, and its relationship with the stationary probability vector is studied. Also, similarity between results obtained by this new product and the first‐order case is shown. Furthermore, we prove the convergence of a transition probability tensor to the stationary probability vector. Finally, we show how to achieve a stationary probability vector with some numerical examples and make some comparison between the proposed method and another existing method for obtaining stationary probability vectors.
