On factorization results for tensor products and twisted characters [HBNI Th243] - Chennai The Institute of Mathematical Sciences 2024 - 71p.
Let An⇥n be a symmetrizable generalized Cartan matrix (GCM) and let g be the associated symmetrizable Kac-Moody Lie algebra with a fixed Cartansubalgebra h. Parabolic Verma modules are highest weight modules for g that simultaneously generalize irreducible integrable modules and Verma modules of g. They are indexed by ( , I) where I ⇢ . In the first part of the thesis we give a necessary and sufficient condition for when products of characters of parabolic Verma modules (and their restrictions to some subalgebras of h) are equal. This extends the results of C.S. Rajan [23] and Venkatesh-Viswanath [26] to a class of typically reducible modules. Schur polynomials form a distinguished basis for the ring of symmetric polynomials. The second part of the thesis extends a theorem of Littlewood [16] that asserts that under the action of the map t (which is the adjoint to the map “plethysm by the power sum symmetric function Pt ”) the Schur polynomial s factorizes into a product of t many Schur polynomials indexed by the t-quotients of . More precisely, we generalize this fact to a class of flagged skew Schur polynomials. This includes an interesting family of key polynomials as a special case. As an aside we obtain a family of pattern avoiding permutations that are enumerated by the Fuss-Catalan number.
