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.     

Représentations induites d'algèbres de Hecke affines et singularités de R-matrices

We give an explicit criterion for the irreducibility of some induction products of evaluation modules of affine Hecke algebras of type A. This allows to describe the form of the zeroes and poles of the trigonometric R-matrix associated to any evaluation module of U_ν(sl_N).     

Generalized Graded Hecke Algebras of Types B and D

For a root system of type B we study an algebra similar to a graded Hecke algebra, isomorphic to a subalgebra of the rational Cherednik algebra. We introduce principal series modules over it and prove an irreducibility criterion for these modules. We deduce similar results for an algebra associated to a root system of type D.     

Graded filtrations and ideals of reduction number 2

In this paper, we give a way to construct graded filtrations of graded modules. We then apply it to the Sally module, which describes a correction term of the Hilbert function. As a result, we obtain the inequality of the Hilbert coefficients for ideals of reduction number 2 or 3.     

Translation and shuffling of projectively presentable modules and a categorification of a parabolic Hecke module

We investigate certain singular categories of Harish-Chandra bimodules realized as the category of -presentable modules in the principal block of the Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand category . This category is equivalent to the module category of a properly stratified algebra. We describe the socles and endomorphism rings of standard objects in this category. Further, we consider translation and shuffling functors and their action on the standard modules. Finally, we study a graded version of this category; in particular, we give a graded version of the properly stratified structure, and use graded versions of translation functors to categorify a parabolic Hecke module.

     

Diagram algebras, Hecke algebras and decomposition numbers at roots of unity

We prove that the cell modules of the affine Temperley-Lieb algebra have the same composition factors, when regarded as modules for the affine Hecke algebra of type A, as certain standard modules which are defined homologically. En route, we relate these to the cell modules of the Temperley-Lieb algebra of type B, which provides a connection between Temperley-Lieb algebras on n and n−1 strings. Applications include the explicit determination of some decomposition numbers of standard modules at roots of unity, which in turn has implications for certain Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials associated with nilpotent orbit closures. The methods involve the study of the relationships among several algebras defined by concatenation of braid-like diagrams and between these and Hecke algebras. Connections are made with earlier work of Bernstein-Zelevinsky on the “generic case” and of Jones on link invariants.     

Coefficients of Drinfeld modular forms and Hecke operators

Consider the space of Drinfeld modular forms of fixed weight and type for Γ₀(n)⊂GL₂(Fq[T]). It has a linear form bn, given by the coefficient of tm+n(q−1) in the power series expansion of a type m modular form at the cusp infinity, with respect to the uniformizer t. It also has an action of a Hecke algebra. Our aim is to study the Hecke module spanned by b₁. We give elements in the Hecke annihilator of b₁. Some of them are expected to be nontrivial and such a phenomenon does not occur for classical modular forms. Moreover, we show that the Hecke module considered is spanned by coefficients bn, where n runs through an infinite set of integers. As a consequence, for any Drinfeld Hecke eigenform, we can compute explicitly certain coefficients in terms of the eigenvalues. We give an application to coefficients of the Drinfeld Hecke eigenform h.     

Categorification of (induced) cell modules and the rough structure of generalised Verma modules

This paper presents categorifications of (right) cell modules and induced cell modules for Hecke algebras of finite Weyl groups. In type A we show that these categorifications depend only on the isomorphism class of the cell module, not on the cell itself. Our main application is multiplicity formulas for parabolically induced modules over a reductive Lie algebra of type A, which finally determines the so-called rough structure of generalised Verma modules. On the way we present several categorification results and give a positive answer to Kostant's problem from [A. Joseph, Kostant's problem, Goldie rank and the Gelfand-Kirillov conjecture, Invent. Math. 56 (3) (1980) 191-213] in many cases. We also present a general setup of decategorification, precategorification and categorification.     

Cell Decompositions of Quiver Flag Varieties for Nilpotent Representations of the Cyclic Quiver

Generalizing Schubert cells in type A and a cell decomposition of Springer fibres in type A found by L. Fresse we prove that varieties of complete flags in nilpotent representations of a cyclic quiver admit an affine cell decomposition parametrized by multi-tableaux. We show that they carry a torus operation with finitely many fixpoints. As an application of the cell decomposition we obtain a vector space basis of certain modules (for quiver Hecke algebras of nilpotent representations of this quiver), similar modules have been studied by Kato as analogues of standard modules.     

Functors for unitary representations of classical real groups and affine Hecke algebras

We define exact functors from categories of Harish–Chandra modules for certain real classical groups to finite-dimensional modules over an associated graded affine Hecke algebra with parameters. We then study some of the basic properties of these functors. In particular, we show that they map irreducible spherical representations to irreducible spherical representations and, moreover, that they preserve unitarity. In the case of split classical groups, we thus obtain a functorial inclusion of the real spherical unitary dual (with “real infinitesimal character”) into the corresponding p-adic spherical unitary dual.     

Standard Modules for Tabular Algebras

We introduce cell modules for the tabular algebras defined in a previous work; these modules are analogous to the representations arising from left Kazhdan–Lusztig cells. The standard modules of the title are constructed in an elementary way by suitable tensoring of the cell modules. We show how a certain extended affine Hecke algebra of type A equipped with its Kazhdan–Lusztig basis is an example of a tabular algebra, and verify that in this case our standard modules coincide with other standard modules defined in the literature.     

On the Reducibility of Scalar Generalized Verma Modules of Abelian Type

A parabolic subalgebra \(\mathfrak {p}\) of a complex semisimple Lie algebra \(\mathfrak {g}\) is called a parabolic subalgebra of abelian type if its nilpotent radical is abelian. In this paper, we provide a complete characterization of the parameters for scalar generalized Verma modules attached to parabolic subalgebras of abelian type such that the modules are reducible. The proofs use Jantzen’s simplicity criterion, as well as the Enright-Howe-Wallach classification of unitary highest weight modules.     

Classification of graded Hecke algebras for complex reflection groups

The graded Hecke algebra for a finite Weyl group is intimately related to the geometry of the Springer correspondence. A construction of Drinfeld produces an analogue of a graded Hecke algebra for any finite subgroup of GL(V). This paper classifies all the algebras obtained by applying Drinfeld's construction to complex reflection groups. By giving explicit (though nontrivial) isomorphisms, we show that the graded Hecke algebras for finite real reflection groups constructed by Lusztig are all isomorphic to algebras obtained by Drinfeld's construction. The classification shows that there exist algebras obtained from Drinfeld's construction which are not graded Hecke algebras as defined by Lusztig for real as well as complex reflection groups.

Specht modules and semisimplicity criteria for Brauer and Birman–Murakami–Wenzl algebras

A construction of bases for cell modules of the Birman–Murakami–Wenzl (or B–M–W) algebra B _n (q,r) by lifting bases for cell modules of B _n−1(q,r) is given. By iterating this procedure, we produce cellular bases for B–M–W algebras on which a large Abelian subalgebra, generated by elements which generalise the Jucys–Murphy elements from the representation theory of the Iwahori–Hecke algebra of the symmetric group, acts triangularly. The triangular action of this Abelian subalgebra is used to provide explicit criteria, in terms of the defining parameters q and r, for B–M–W algebras to be semisimple. The aforementioned constructions provide generalisations, to the algebras under consideration here, of certain results from the Specht module theory of the Iwahori–Hecke algebra of the symmetric group.

Graded Limits of Minimal Affinizations over the Quantum Loop Algebra of Type <Emphasis Type="Italic">G</Emphasis><Subscript>2</Subscript>

The aim of this paper is to study the graded limits of minimal affinizations over the quantum loop algebra of type G ₂. We show that the graded limits are isomorphic to multiple generalizations of Demazure modules, and obtain defining relations of them. As an application, we obtain a polyhedral multiplicity formula for the decomposition of minimal affinizations of type G ₂ as a \(U_{q}(\mathfrak {g})\)-module, by showing the corresponding formula for the graded limits. As another application, we prove a character formula of the least affinizations of generic parabolic Verma modules of type G ₂ conjectured by Mukhin and Young.     

Homological algebra for affine Hecke algebras

In this paper we study homological properties of modules over an affine Hecke algebra H. In particular we prove a comparison result for higher extensions of tempered modules when passing to the Schwartz algebra S, a certain topological completion of the affine Hecke algebra. The proof is self-contained and based on a direct construction of a bounded contraction of certain standard resolutions of H-modules.This construction applies for all positive parameters of the affine Hecke algebra. This is an important feature, since it is an ingredient to analyse how the irreducible discrete series representations of H arise in generic families over the parameter space of H. For irreducible non-simply laced affine Hecke algebras this will enable us to give a complete classification of the discrete series characters, for all positive parameters (we will report on this application in a separate article).     

Graded decomposition numbers for cyclotomic Hecke algebras

In recent joint work with Wang, we have constructed graded Specht modules for cyclotomic Hecke algebras. In this article, we prove a graded version of the Lascoux-Leclerc-Thibon conjecture, describing the decomposition numbers of graded Specht modules over a field of characteristic zero.
