introduction

  • Weyl character formula. For $\lambda\in \Lambda^{+}$,

$$ \operatorname{ch}L(\lambda)=\sum_{w \in W}(-1)^{\ell(w)}\operatorname{ch} M(w\cdot \lambda) $$

  • goal : realize this formula as an Euler characteristic
  • The BGG resolution resolves a finite-dimensional simple $\mathfrak{g}$-module $L(\lambda)$ by direct sums of Verma modules indexed by weights "of the same length" in the twisted Weyl orbit $W\cdot \lambda$
thm (Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand Resolution).

Fix $\lambda\in \Lambda^{+}$. There is an exact sequence of Verma modules $$ 0 \to M({w_0\cdot \lambda})\to \cdots \bigoplus_{w\in W, \ell(w)=k}M({w\cdot \lambda})\to \cdots M({\lambda})\to L({\lambda})\to 0 $$ where $\ell(w)$ is the length of the Weyl group element $w$, $w_0$ is the Weyl group element of maximal length. Here $\rho$ is half the sum of the positive roots.

overview

  • Weyl character formula and characters of Verma modules
  • property of character map on short exact sequences
  • Euler-Poincare mapping
  • principal block : filtering through central characters
    • is a block a $U(\mathfrak{g})$-submodule? yes
    • how to check that it preserves the exactness : any homomorphism between modules belonging to different blocks will be zero
  • combinatorial results
    • consider the set of sum of k distinct roots. Which elements are linked to $0$?
    • Bruhat ordering
  • Bruhat ordering and strong linkage relation
    • let $\lambda \in \Lambda^+$ (which is regular for the dot-action of $W$)
    • $w'\cdot \lambda< w \cdot \lambda $ translates into $w < w'$ in the Bruhat ordering
  • strong linkage relation and extension of Verma modules

example of BGG resolution

$\mathfrak{sl}_2$

  • \(L({\lambda})\) : irreducible highest weight module
  • \(M({\lambda})\) : Verma modules
    • note that the Verma modules are free modules of rank 1 over \(\mathbb{C}[F]\) where $F$ is the annihilation operator of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$
  • \(\lambda ,-2+\lambda ,\cdots, -\lambda, -\lambda-2,\cdots\)
  • \(L({\lambda})=M({\lambda})/M({-\lambda-2})\)
  • BGG resolution

\[0\to M({-\lambda-2})\to M({\lambda})\to L({\lambda})\to 0\]

  • number of modules = 2 (=order of Weyl group in general)
  • character of $L({\lambda})$ = alternating sum of characters of Verma modules

\[\chi_{L({\lambda})}=\chi_{M({\lambda})}-\chi_{M({-\lambda-2})}=\frac{q^{\lambda}}{1-q^{-2}}-\frac{q^{-\lambda-2}}{1-q^{-2}}\]

\[\chi(L({\lambda}))=\frac{\sum_{w\in W} (-1)^{\ell(w)}e^{w(\lambda+\rho)}}{e^{\rho}\prod_{\alpha>0}(1-e^{-\alpha})}=\frac{q^{\lambda+1}-q^{-\lambda-1}}{q^{1}(1-q^{-2})}\] where I used \(\rho=1,\alpha=2\) and \(w(\lambda+\rho)=-\lambda-\rho\)

$\mathfrak{sl}_3$

Euler-Poincare characteristic

  • $A$ : abelian category
  • Euler-Poincare map $\varphi$ on an object in $A$
  • $\varphi$ turns a short exact sequence into an alternating sum
  • we can define Euler-Poincare characteristic $\chi_{\varphi}$ of a complex as the alternating sum of Euler-Poincare map on the homology
  • the main result is that the Euler-Poincre characteristic can be computed from a different resolution and it is independent of the choice of it

Verma modules

maps between Verma modules

  • 2 conditions to have non-zero homomorphisms \(V_{\lambda}\to V_{\mu}\) between two Verma modules
    • \(\lambda+\rho, \mu+\rho\) are in the same orbit of Weyl group
    • \(V_{\lambda}\leq V_{\mu}\), i.e. \(\lambda = \mu -\sum \alpha\), where the sum is over some positive roots.

example

  • SL2
    • \(\lambda = \mu -2n\), \(n=0,1,2,\cdots\)
    • \((\lambda+1)^2 = (\mu+1)^2\)


composition series of Verma modules

thm

The Verma module $M(\lambda)$ has a finite composition series $$ M(\lambda)=N_0\supset N_1\supset N_2\supset \cdots N_{r}=O $$ where each $N_i$ is a submodule of $M(\lambda)$ and $N_{i+1}$ is a maximal submodule of $N_i$. Moreover, $N_i/N_{i+1}$ is isomorphic to $L(w\cdot \lambda)$ for some $w\in W$.

action of center on Verma modules

  • check


maximal submodule of Verma modules

  • Maximal Submodule of $M(\lambda), \lambda \in \Lambda+$ (see 2.6)

weak BGG resolution

standard filtration

  • We say that $M \in O$ has a standard filtration (also sometimes called a Verma flag) if there is a sequence of submodules

$$0 = M_0 \subset M_1 \subset M_2 \subset \cdots \subset M_n = M$$ for which each $M^i := M_i/M_{i−1}\, (1 \le i \le n)$ is isomorphic to a Verma module.

thm (Weak BGG resolution)

There is an exact sequence $$0 = D_m^{\lambda} \to \subset D_{m-1}^{\lambda} \to \cdots \to D_2^{\lambda} \to D_1^{\lambda} \to L(0) \to 0$$ where $D_{k}^{\lambda}$ has a standard filtration involving exactly once each of the Verma modules $M(w\cdot \lambda)$ with $\ell(w)=k$

  • we prove this for $\lambda=0$ and apply the translation function to extend it

strategy of the proof

  • The sequence of modules $D_k:=U(\mathfrak{g})\otimes_{U(\mathfrak{b})}\Lambda^{k}(\mathfrak{g}/\mathfrak{b})$ is a relative version of the standard resolution of the trivial module in Lie algebra cohomology

standard resolution of trivial module

  • free $U(\mathfrak{g})$-modules $U(\mathfrak{g})\otimes_{\mathbb{C}}\Lambda^{k}(\mathfrak{g})$
  • standard resolution of trivial module

$$\cdots \to U(\mathfrak{g})\otimes_{\mathbb{C}}\Lambda^{p}(\mathfrak{g})\to U(\mathfrak{g})\otimes_{\mathbb{C}}\Lambda^{p-1}(\mathfrak{g})\to \cdots \to U(\mathfrak{g})\otimes_{\mathbb{C}}\Lambda^{0}(\mathfrak{g})\to L(0)$$

  • $D_k$ are free only over $U(\mathfrak{n}^{−})$

weights of exterior powers

  • what are the weights of $\wedge^k (\mathfrak{g}/\mathfrak{b})$ as $\mathfrak{b}$-module?
  • let $\beta$ be a sum of $k$-distinct negative root. Can we find $w\in W$ such that $w\cdot 0=\beta$?
  • note that $|W\cdot 0|=|W|$
  • yes, if and only if $\beta$ is a sum of elements in $w \Phi^+ \cap \Phi^-$

extensions of Verma modules

  • $\mu, \lambda\in \mathfrak{h}^{*}$
  • $\mu \uparrow \lambda$ if $\mu = \lambda$ or there is a root $\alpha$ such that $\mu=s_{\alpha}\cdot \lambda < \lambda $
  • we say $\mu$ is strongly linked to $\lambda$ if $\mu = \lambda$ or there exist root $\alpha_1,\cdots, \alpha_r\in \Phi^+$ such that $\mu=(s_{\alpha_1}\cdots s_{\alpha_r})\cdot \lambda \uparrow (s_{\alpha_2}\cdots s_{\alpha_r})\cdot \lambda \uparrow ( s_{\alpha_r})\cdot \lambda \uparrow \cdots \uparrow \lambda $
thm

Let $\lambda\in \mathfrak{h}^{*}$.

(a) If $\operatorname{Ext}_{\mathcal{O}}(M(\mu),M(\lambda))\neq 0$ for $\mu\in \mathfrak{h}^{*}$, then $\mu \uparrow \lambda$ but $\mu \neq \lambda$

(b) Let $\lambda\in \Lambda^{+}$ and $w,w'\in W$. If $\operatorname{Ext}_{\mathcal{O}}(M(w'\cdot\lambda),M(w\cdot\lambda))\neq 0$, then $w<w'$ in the Bruhat ordering. In particular, $\ell(w)<\ell(w')$.

applications


generalization of BGG resolution

  • There exist generalizations to symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebras, cf. [34].
  • Kempf obtained a resolution of finite-dimensional L(λ) in terms of the Grothendieck-Cousin complex in [26], which is dual to the BGG resolution.
  • This was extended by Kumar to arbitrary Kac-Moody algebras; he thus obtained the BGG resolution here, and computed the Weyl-Kac character formula and the cohomologies of n+ (cf. [30,§9.3]).
