Parabolic projective functors in type A

Abstract

We classify projective functors on the regular block of Rocha-Caridi's parabolic version of the BGG category $\mathcal{O}$ in type $A$. In fact, we show that, in type $A$, the restriction of an indecomposable projective functor from $\mathcal{O}$ to the parabolic category is either indecomposable or zero. As a consequence, we obtain that projective functors on the parabolic category $\mathcal{O}$ in type $A$ are completely determined, up to isomorphism, by the linear transformations they induce on the level of the Grothendieck group, which was conjectured by Stroppel in \cite{St}.
