چکیده
Let G be a complex simple Lie group and let g = LieG. Let S(g) be the G-module of polynomial functions on g and let Sing g be the closed algebraic cone of singular elements in g. Let L ⊂ S(g) be the (graded) ideal defining Sing g and let 2r be the dimension of a G-orbit of a regular element in g. Then Lk = 0 for any k < r. On the other hand, there exists a remarkable G-module M ⊂ Lr which already defines Sing g. The main results of this paper are a determination of the structure of M . 0. Introduction 0.1. Let G be a complex simple Lie group and let g = LieG. Let = rank g. Then in superscript centralizer notation one has dim g ≥ for any x ∈ g. An element x ∈ g is called regular (resp. singular) if dim g = (resp. > ). Let Reg g be the set of all regular elements in g and let Sing g, its complement in g, be the set of all singular elements in g. Then one knows that Reg g is a nonempty Zariski open subset of g and hence Sing g is a closed proper algebraic subset of g. Let S(g) (resp. ∧ g) be the symmetric (resp. exterior) algebra over g. Both algebras are graded and are G-modules by extension of the adjoint representation. Let B be the natural extension of the Killing form to S(g) and ∧ g. The inner product it induces on u and v in either S(g) or ∧ g is denoted by (u, v). The use of B permits an identification of S(g) with the algebra of polynomial functions on g. Since Sing g is clearly a cone the ideal, L, of all f ∈ S(g) which vanish on Sing g is graded. Let n = dim g and let r = (n− )/2. One knows that n− is even so that r ∈ Z+. It is easy to show that L = 0, for all k < r. (0.1) 1 The purpose of this paper is to define and study a rather remarkable G-submodule

Lattice of full soft Lie algebra
In this paper, we study the relation between the soft sets and soft Lie algebras with the lattice theory. We introduce the concepts of the lattice of soft sets, full soft sets and soft Lie algebras and next, we verify some properties of them. We prove that the lattice of the soft sets on a fixed parameter set is isomorphic to the power set of a ...
متن کاملMonomial Irreducible sln-Modules
In this article, we introduce monomial irreducible representations of the special linear Lie algebra $sln$. We will show that this kind of representations have bases for which the action of the Chevalley generators of the Lie algebra on the basis elements can be given by a simple formula.
متن کاملOn permutably complemented subalgebras of finite dimensional Lie algebras
Let $L$ be a finite-dimensional Lie algebra. We say a subalgebra $H$ of $L$ is permutably complemented in $L$ if there is a subalgebra $K$ of $L$ such that $L=H+K$ and $Hcap K=0$. Also, if every subalgebra of $L$ is permutably complemented in $L$, then $L$ is called completely factorisable. In this article, we consider the influence of these concepts on the structure of a Lie algebra, in partic...
متن کاملThe Lie Algebra of Smooth Sections of a T-bundle
In this article, we generalize the concept of the Lie algebra of vector fields to the set of smooth sections of a T-bundle which is by definition a canonical generalization of the concept of a tangent bundle. We define a Lie bracket multiplication on this set so that it becomes a Lie algebra. In the particular case of tangent bundles this Lie algebra coincides with the Lie algebra of vector fie...
متن کاملCohomology of the Space of Commuting N-tuples in a Compact Lie Group
Consider the space Hom(Z n , G) of pairwise commuting n-tuples of elements in a compact Lie group G. This forms a real algebraic variety, which is generally singular. In this paper, we construct a desingulariza-tion of the generic component of Hom(Z n , G), which allows us to derive formulas for its singular and equivariant cohomology in terms of the Lie algebra of a maximal torus in G and the ...
