On Level-zero Representations of Quantized Affine Algebras
نویسنده
چکیده
We study the properties of level-zero modules over quantized affine algebras. The proof of the conjecture on the cyclicity of tensor products by T. Akasaka and the author is given. Several properties of modules generated by extremal vectors are proved. The weights of a module generated by an extremal vector are contained in the convex hull of the Weyl group orbit of the extremal weight. The universal extremal weight module with level-zero fundamental weight as an extremal weight is irreducible, and it is isomorphic to the affinization of an irreducible finite-dimensional module.

متن کاملLevel Zero Fundamental Representations over Quantized Affine Algebras and Demazure Modules
Let W (̟k) be the finite-dimensional irreducible module over a quantized affine algebra U ′ q(g) with the fundamental weight ̟k as an extremal weight. We show that its crystal B(W (̟k)) is isomorphic to the Demazure crystal B −(−Λ0 +̟k). This is derived from the following general result: for a dominant integral weight λ and an integral weight μ, there exists a unique homomorphism Uq(g)(uλ⊗ uμ) → V ...

The representation theory of Kac–Moody algebras, and in particular that of affine Lie algebras, has been extensively studied over the past twenty years. The representations that have had the most applications are the integrable ones, so called because they lift to the corresponding group. The affine Lie algebra associated to a finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebra g is the universal (on...

Let Uq(Ĝ) denote the quantized affine Lie algebra and Uq(G (1)) the quantized nontwisted affine Lie algebra. Let Ofin be the category defined in section 3. We show that when the deformation parameter q is not a root of unit all integrable representations of Uq(Ĝ) in the category Ofin are completely reducible and that every integrable irreducible highest weight module over Uq(G (1)) correspondin...
متن کاملQuantum Z-algebras and Representations of Quantum Affine Algebras
Generalizing our earlier work, we introduce the homogeneous quantum Z-algebras for all quantum affine algebras Uq(ĝ) of type one. With the new algebras we unite previously scattered realizations of quantum affine algebras in various cases. As a result we find a realization of Uq(F (1) 4 ). 0. Introduction In 1981 Lepowsky and Wilson introduced (principal) Z-algebras as a tool to construct expli...
