Tilting sheaves on toric varieties

In [19], A. King states the following conjecture: Any smooth complete toric variety has a tilting bundle whose summands are line bundles. The goal of this paper is to prove Kings conjecture for the following types of smooth complete toric varieties: (i) Any d-dimensional smooth complete toric variety with splitting fan. (ii) Any d-dimensional smooth complete toric variety with Picard number 2. (iii) The blow up of any smooth complete minimal toric surface at T-invariants points.Mathematics Subject Classification (1991): 14F05; 14M25Partially supported by BFM2001-3584.     

Geometric representation theory of restricted Lie algebras

We modify the Hochschild -map to construct central extensions of a restricted Lie algebra. Such central extension gives rise to a goup scheme that leads to a geometric construction of unrestricted representations. For a classical semisimple Lie algebra, we construct equivariant line bundles whose global sections afford representations with a nilpotentp-character.Supported by NSF.Supported by NSF and EPSRC.     

Quantum reduction and representation theory of superconformal algebras

We study the structure and representations of a family of vertex algebras obtained from affine superalgebras by quantum reduction. As an application, we obtain in a unified way free field realizations and determinant formulas for all superconformal algebras.     

Tilting simply connected algebras

Let A be a representation-finite simply connected algebra, and T_Abe an arbitrary tilting module (in the sense of Happei and Ringel). We show that B = End T_A satisfies the separation condition of Bautista, Larrion and Salmeron. This implies that B is also simply connected.     

On some developments in the representation theory of cylindric-like algebras

In this survey paper we recall the representation problem of certain classes of algebras of relations. Two specific recent research directions in algebraic logic are surveyed: the one is connected with the representation theory of cylindric relativized set algebras including Resek’s representation theorem and merry-go-round axioms, the other discusses the representation problem in some non-well-founded set theories where the axiom of foundation is replaced by Boffa’s weak anti-foundation axiom. This paper is dedicated to Walter Taylor. Received September 8, 2005; accepted in final form January 12, 2006.

Nonsplit Hecke algebras and perverse sheaves

Let H be a Hecke algebra arising as an endomorphism algebra of the representation of a Chevalley group G over \(F_{q}\) induced by a unipotent cuspidal representation of a Levi quotient L of a parabolic subgroup. We assume that L is not a torus. In this paper we outline a geometric interpretation of the coefficients of the canonical basis of H in terms of perverse sheaves. We illustrate this in detail in the case where the Weyl group of G is ot type \(B_{4}\) and that of L is of type \(B_{2}\).     

Yang-Baxter bases of 0-Hecke algebras and representation theory of 0-Ariki-Koike-Shoji algebras

After reformulating the representation theory of 0-Hecke algebras in an appropriate family of Yang-Baxter bases, we investigate certain specializations of the Ariki-Koike algebras, obtained by setting q=0 in a suitably normalized version of Shoji's presentation. We classify the simple and projective modules, and describe restrictions, induction products, Cartan invariants and decomposition matrices. This allows us to identify the Grothendieck rings of the towers of algebras in terms of certain graded Hopf algebras known as the Mantaci-Reutenauer descent algebras, and Poirier quasi-symmetric functions. We also describe the Ext-quivers, and conclude with numerical tables.     

Geometric representation theory for unitary groups of operator algebras

Geometric realizations for the restrictions of GNS representations to unitary groups of C^∗-algebras are constructed. These geometric realizations use an appropriate concept of reproducing kernels on vector bundles. To build such realizations in spaces of holomorphic sections, a class of complex coadjoint orbits of the corresponding real Banach-Lie groups is described and some homogeneous holomorphic Hermitian vector bundles that are naturally associated with the coadjoint orbits are constructed.     

Tilting up iterated tilted algebras

We show that, if is a representation-finite iterated tilted algebra of euclidean type , then there exist a sequence of algebras , and a sequence of modules , where , such that each is an APR-tilting -module, or an APR-cotilting -module, and is tilted representation-finite.

     

Restricted algebras on inverse semigroups I,representation theory

The relation between representations and positive definite functions is a key concept in harmonic analysis on topological groups. Recently this relation has been studied on topological groupoids. This is the first in a series of papers in which we have investigated a similar relation on inverse semigroups. We use a new concept of “restricted” representations and study the restricted semigroup algebras and corresponding C *‐algebras. (© 2006 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Morita equivalence of quasi-primal algebras and sheaves

In this paper, we show that two quasi-primal algebras are Morita equivalent if and only if their inverse semigroups of inner automorphisms are isomorphic, and if they have the same one-element subalgebras. The proof of this statement uses the representation theory of algebras by sections in sheaves.Presented by H. P. Gumm.
