AbstractNazarov [Naz96] introduced an infinite dimensional algebra, which he called the affine Wenzl algebra, in his study of the Brauer algebras. In this paper we study certain “cyclotomic quotients” of these algebras. We construct the irreducible representations of these algebras in the generic case and use this to show that these algebras are free of rank rn(2n−1)!! (when Ω is u-admissible). We next show that these algebras are cellular and give a labelling for the simple modules of the cyclotomic Nazarov-Wenzl algebras over an arbitrary field. In particular, this gives a construction of all of the finite dimensional irreducible modules of the affine Wenzl algebra.

In the study of the Type II superstring, it is useful to consider the BRST complex associated to the sum of two pure spinors. The cohomology of this complex is an infinite-dimensional vector space. It is also a finite-dimensional algebra over the algebra of functions of a single pure spinor. In this paper we study the multiplicative structure.

Over fields of characteristic zero, there are well known constructions of the irreducible representations, due to A. Young, and of irreducible modules, called Specht modules, due to W. Specht, for the symmetric groups Sn which are based on elegant combinatorial concepts connected with Young tableaux etc. (see, e.g. [13]). James [12] extended these ideas to construct irreducible representations and modules over an arbitrary field. Al-Aamily, Morris and Peel [1] showed how this construction could be extended to cover the Weyl groups of type Bn. In [14] Morris described a possible extension of James' work for Weyl groups in general. Later, the present author and Morris [8] gave an alternative generalisation of James' work which is an extended improvement and extension of the original approach suggested by Morris. We now give a possible extension of James' work for finite reflection groups in general.

Let [Formula: see text] be a finite-dimensional algebra. If [Formula: see text] is self-injective, then all modules are reflexive. Marczinzik recently has asked whether [Formula: see text] has to be self-injective in case all the simple modules are reflexive. Here, we exhibit an 8-dimensional algebra which is not self-injective, but such that all simple modules are reflexive (actually, for this example, the simple modules are the only non-projective indecomposable modules which are reflexive). In addition, we present some properties of simple reflexive modules in general. Marczinzik had motivated his question by providing large classes [Formula: see text] of algebras such that any algebra in [Formula: see text] which is not self-injective has simple modules which are not reflexive. However, as it turns out, most of these classes have the property that any algebra in [Formula: see text] which is not self-injective has simple modules which are not even torsionless.

The algebra of linear and quadratic functions of basic observables on the phase space of either the free particle or the harmonic oscillator possesses a finite-dimensional anomaly. The quantization of these systems outside the critical values of the anomaly leads to a new degree of freedom which shares its internal character with spin, but nevertheless features an infinite number of different states. Both are associated with the transformation properties of wave functions under the Weyl-symplectic group [Formula: see text]. The physical meaning of this new degree of freedom can be established, with a major scope, only by analyzing the quantization of an infinite-dimensional algebra of diffeomorphisms generalizing string symmetry and leading to more general extended objects.

Let L be any simple finite-dimensional Lie algebra (defined over the field K of complex numbers). Cartan's theory of weights is used to define sets of (algebraic) representations of L that can be characterized in terms of left ideals of the universal enveloping algebra of L. These representations, called standard, generalize irreducible representations that possess a dominant weight. The newly obtained representations are all infinite-dimensional. Their study is initiated here by obtaining a partial solution to the problem of characterizing them by means of sequences of elements in K.

In this paper, we explore the possibility of endowing simple infinite-dimensional [Formula: see text]-modules by the structure of graded modules. The gradings on the finite-dimensional simple modules over simple Lie algebras have been studied in 7, 8.

If G is a polycyclic group and k an absolute field then every irreducible kG-module is finite dimensional [10], while if k is nonabsolute every irreducible module is finite dimensional if and only if G is abelian-by-finite [3]. However something more can be said about the infinite dimensional irreducible modules. For example P. Hall showed that if G is a finitely generated nilpotent group and V an irreducible kG-module, then the image of kZ in EndkGV is algebraic over k [3]. Here Z = Z(G) denotes the centre of G. It follows that the restriction Vz of V to Z is generated by finite dimensional kZ-modules. In this paper we prove a generalization of this result to polycyclic group algebras.We introduce some terminology.

Let g be a semi-simple Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic 0. For finite dimensional representations of g, the following important results are known; 1) H1(g, V) = 0 for any finite dimensional g space V. This is equivalent to the complete reducibility of all the finite dimensional representations,2) Determination of all irreducible representations in connection with their highest weights.3) Weyl’s formula for the character of irreducible representations [9].4) Kostant’s formula for the multiplicity of weights of irreducible representations [6],5) The law of the decomposition of the tensor product of two irreducible representations [1].
