Good Filtration
In mathematical representation theory, a good filtration is a filtration of a representation of a reductive algebraic group ''G'' such that the subquotients are isomorphic to the spaces of sections ''F''(λ) of line bundles λ over ''G''/''B'' for a Borel subgroup ''B''. In characteristic 0 this is automatically true as the irreducible modules are all of the form ''F''(λ), but this is not usually true in positive characteristic. showed that the tensor product of two modules ''F''(λ)⊗''F''(μ) has a good filtration, completing the results of who proved it in most cases and who proved it in large characteristic. showed that the existence of good filtrations for these tensor products also follows from standard monomial theory.

Representation Theory
Representation theory is a branch of mathematics that studies abstract algebraic structures by ''representing'' their elements as linear transformations of vector spaces, and studies modules over these abstract algebraic structures. In essence, a representation makes an abstract algebraic object more concrete by describing its elements by matrices and their algebraic operations (for example, matrix addition, matrix multiplication). The theory of matrices and linear operators is well-understood, so representations of more abstract objects in terms of familiar linear algebra objects helps glean properties and sometimes simplify calculations on more abstract theories. The algebraic objects amenable to such a description include groups, associative algebras and Lie algebras. The most prominent of these (and historically the first) is the representation theory of groups, in which elements of a group are represented by invertible matrices in such a way that the group operation i ...

Filtration (mathematics)
In mathematics, a filtration \mathcal is an indexed family (S_i)_ of subobjects of a given algebraic structure S, with the index i running over some totally ordered index set I, subject to the condition that ::if i\leq j in I, then S_i\subseteq S_j. If the index i is the time parameter of some stochastic process, then the filtration can be interpreted as representing all historical but not future information available about the stochastic process, with the algebraic structure S_i gaining in complexity with time. Hence, a process that is adapted to a filtration \mathcal is also called non-anticipating, because it cannot "see into the future". Sometimes, as in a filtered algebra, there is instead the requirement that the S_i be subalgebras with respect to some operations (say, vector addition), but not with respect to other operations (say, multiplication) that satisfy only S_i \cdot S_j \subseteq S_, where the index set is the natural numbers; this is by analogy with a graded ...

Reductive Algebraic Group
In mathematics, a reductive group is a type of linear algebraic group over a field. One definition is that a connected linear algebraic group ''G'' over a perfect field is reductive if it has a representation with finite kernel which is a direct sum of irreducible representations. Reductive groups include some of the most important groups in mathematics, such as the general linear group ''GL''(''n'') of invertible matrices, the special orthogonal group ''SO''(''n''), and the symplectic group ''Sp''(2''n''). Simple algebraic groups and (more generally) semisimple algebraic groups are reductive. Claude Chevalley showed that the classification of reductive groups is the same over any algebraically closed field. In particular, the simple algebraic groups are classified by Dynkin diagrams, as in the theory of compact Lie groups or complex semisimple Lie algebras. Reductive groups over an arbitrary field are harder to classify, but for many fields such as the real numbers R or a nu ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Subquotient
In the mathematical fields of category theory and abstract algebra, a subquotient is a quotient object of a subobject. Subquotients are particularly important in abelian categories, and in group theory, where they are also known as sections, though this conflicts with a different meaning in category theory. In the literature about sporadic groups wordings like «H is involved in G» can be found with the apparent meaning of «H is a subquotient of G». A quotient of a subrepresentation of a representation (of, say, a group) might be called a subquotient representation; e.g., Harish-Chandra's subquotient theorem. p. 310 Examples Of the 26 sporadic groups, the 20 subquotients of the monster group are referred to as the "Happy Family", whereas the remaining 6 as "pariah groups". Order relation The relation ''subquotient of'' is an order relation. Proof of transitivity for groups Let H'/H'' be subquotient of H, furthermore H := G'/G'' be subquotient of G and \varphi \colon G' \t ...

Section (fiber Bundle)
In the mathematical field of topology, a section (or cross section) of a fiber bundle E is a continuous right inverse of the projection function \pi. In other words, if E is a fiber bundle over a base space, B: : \pi \colon E \to B then a section of that fiber bundle is a continuous map, : \sigma \colon B \to E such that : \pi(\sigma(x)) = x for all x \in B . A section is an abstract characterization of what it means to be a graph. The graph of a function g\colon B \to Y can be identified with a function taking its values in the Cartesian product E = B \times Y , of B and Y : :\sigma\colon B\to E, \quad \sigma(x) = (x,g(x)) \in E. Let \pi\colon E \to B be the projection onto the first factor: \pi(x,y) = x . Then a graph is any function \sigma for which \pi(\sigma(x)) = x . The language of fibre bundles allows this notion of a section to be generalized to the case when E is not necessarily a Cartesian product. If \pi\colon E \to B is a fibre bundle, then a ...

Line Bundle
In mathematics, a line bundle expresses the concept of a line that varies from point to point of a space. For example, a curve in the plane having a tangent line at each point determines a varying line: the ''tangent bundle'' is a way of organising these. More formally, in algebraic topology and differential topology, a line bundle is defined as a ''vector bundle'' of rank 1. Line bundles are specified by choosing a one-dimensional vector space for each point of the space in a continuous manner. In topological applications, this vector space is usually real or complex. The two cases display fundamentally different behavior because of the different topological properties of real and complex vector spaces: If the origin is removed from the real line, then the result is the set of 1×1 invertible real matrices, which is homotopy-equivalent to a discrete two-point space by contracting the positive and negative reals each to a point; whereas removing the origin from the complex plane ...

Borel Subgroup
In the theory of algebraic groups, a Borel subgroup of an algebraic group ''G'' is a maximal Zariski closed and connected solvable algebraic subgroup. For example, in the general linear group ''GLn'' (''n x n'' invertible matrices), the subgroup of invertible upper triangular matrices is a Borel subgroup. For groups realized over algebraically closed fields, there is a single conjugacy class of Borel subgroups. Borel subgroups are one of the two key ingredients in understanding the structure of simple (more generally, reductive) algebraic groups, in Jacques Tits' theory of groups with a (B,N) pair. Here the group ''B'' is a Borel subgroup and ''N'' is the normalizer of a maximal torus contained in ''B''. The notion was introduced by Armand Borel, who played a leading role in the development of the theory of algebraic groups. Parabolic subgroups Subgroups between a Borel subgroup ''B'' and the ambient group ''G'' are called parabolic subgroups. Parabolic subgroups ''P'' are ...

Characteristic (algebra)
In mathematics, the characteristic of a ring (mathematics), ring , often denoted , is defined to be the smallest number of times one must use the ring's identity element, multiplicative identity (1) in a sum to get the additive identity (0). If this sum never reaches the additive identity the ring is said to have characteristic zero. That is, is the smallest positive number such that: :\underbrace_ = 0 if such a number exists, and otherwise. Motivation The special definition of the characteristic zero is motivated by the equivalent definitions characterized in the next section, where the characteristic zero is not required to be considered separately. The characteristic may also be taken to be the exponent (group theory), exponent of the ring's additive group, that is, the smallest positive integer such that: :\underbrace_ = 0 for every element of the ring (again, if exists; otherwise zero). Some authors do not include the multiplicative identity element in their r ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Simple Module
In mathematics, specifically in ring theory, the simple modules over a ring ''R'' are the (left or right) modules over ''R'' that are non-zero and have no non-zero proper submodules. Equivalently, a module ''M'' is simple if and only if every cyclic submodule generated by a element of ''M'' equals ''M''. Simple modules form building blocks for the modules of finite length, and they are analogous to the simple groups in group theory. In this article, all modules will be assumed to be right unital modules over a ring ''R''. Examples Z-modules are the same as abelian groups, so a simple Z-module is an abelian group which has no non-zero proper subgroups. These are the cyclic groups of prime order. If ''I'' is a right ideal of ''R'', then ''I'' is simple as a right module if and only if ''I'' is a minimal non-zero right ideal: If ''M'' is a non-zero proper submodule of ''I'', then it is also a right ideal, so ''I'' is not minimal. Conversely, if ''I'' is not minimal, then t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Tensor Product Of Representations
In mathematics, the tensor product of representations is a tensor product of vector spaces underlying representations together with the factor-wise group action on the product. This construction, together with the Clebsch–Gordan procedure, can be used to generate additional irreducible representations if one already knows a few. Definition Group representations If V_1, V_2 are linear representations of a group G, then their tensor product is the tensor product of vector spaces V_1 \otimes V_2 with the linear action of G uniquely determined by the condition that :g \cdot (v_1 \otimes v_2) = (g\cdot v_1) \otimes (g\cdot v_2) for all v_1\in V_1 and v_2\in V_2. Although not every element of V_1\otimes V_2 is expressible in the form v_1\otimes v_2, the universal property of the tensor product operation guarantees that this action is well defined. In the language of homomorphisms, if the actions of G on V_1 and V_2 are given by homomorphisms \Pi_1:G\rightarrow\operatorname(V_1) and \P ...

Standard Monomial Theory
In algebraic geometry, standard monomial theory describes the sections of a line bundle over a generalized flag variety or Schubert variety of a reductive algebraic group by giving an explicit basis of elements called standard monomials. Many of the results have been extended to Kac–Moody algebras and their groups. There are monographs on standard monomial theory by and and survey articles by and One of important open problems is to give a completely geometric construction of the theory.M. Brion and V. Lakshmibai : A geometric approach to standard monomial theory, Represent. Theory 7 (2003), 651–680. History introduced monomials associated to standard Young tableaux. (see also ) used Young's monomials, which he called standard power products, named after standard tableaux, to give a basis for the homogeneous coordinate rings of complex Grassmannians. initiated a program, called standard monomial theory, to extend Hodge's work to varieties ''G''/''P'', for ''P'' any pa ...
