Parabolic induction for modular finite -algebras

Simon Goodwin, Lewis Topley, Matt Westaway

We study the modules of minimal dimension for reduced enveloping algebras of Lie algebras of reductive algebraic groups using the theory of modular finite -algebras. First of al…

Quantization of nilpotent coadjoint -orbit closures in positive characteristics

Filippo Ambrosio, Lewis Topley, Matthew Westaway

Let be a reductive group over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic , good for the root system of . The closures of -orbits in the Hilbert nullcone…

Two problems in the representation theory of reduced enveloping algebras

Matthew Westaway

In this paper we consider two problems relating to the representation theory of Lie algebras of reductive algebraic groups over algebraically closed fields ${\m…

Birational induction of nilpotent orbit covers in exceptional types

Matthew Westaway

Let be a semisimple simply connected algebraic group over of exceptional type. For each -equivariant nilpotent cover of a nilpotent coadjoint -orbit ${\math…

On induced completely prime primitive ideals in enveloping algebras of classical Lie algebras

Simon M. Goodwin, Lewis Topley, Matthew Westaway

A distinguished family of completely prime primitive ideals in the universal enveloping algebra of a reductive Lie algebra over are those ideals const…

Tilting modules and highest weight theory for reduced enveloping algebras

Matthew Westaway

Let be a reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic , and let be its Lie algebra. Given in stan…

A note on Humphreys' conjecture on blocks

Matthew Westaway

Humphreys' conjecture on blocks parametrises the blocks of reduced enveloping algebras , where is the Lie algebra of a reductive algebraic group…

On graded representations of modular Lie algebras over commutative algebras

Matthew Westaway

We develop the theory of a category which is a generalisation to non-restricted -modules of a category famously studied by Andersen, Jantzen and Soe…

Centrification of Algebras and Hopf Algebras

Dmitriy Rumynin, Matthew Westaway

We investigate a method of construction of central deformations of associative algebras, which we call centrification. We prove some general results in the case of Hopf algebras an…

Higher Deformations of Lie Algebra Representations II

Matthew Westaway

Steinberg's tensor product theorem shows that for semisimple algebraic groups the study of irreducible representations of higher Frobenius kernels reduces to the study of irreducib…

Integration of Modules II: Exponentials

Dmitriy Rumynin, Matthew Westaway

We continue our exploration of various approaches to integration of representations from a Lie algebra $\mbox{Lie} (G)$ to an algebraic group in positive characteristic. In the…

Higher Deformations of Lie Algebra Representations I

Matthew Westaway

In the late 1980s, Friedlander and Parshall studied the representations of a family of algebras which were obtained as deformations of the distribution algebra of the first Frobeni…

Covering Groups of Nonconnected Topological Groups and 2-Groups

Dmitriy Rumynin, Demyan Vakhrameev, Matthew Westaway

We investigate the universal cover of a topological group that is not necessarily connected. Its existence as a topological group is governed by a Taylor cocycle, an obstruction in…

Integration of Modules I: Stability

Dmitriy Rumynin, Matthew Westaway

We explore the integration of representations from a Lie algebra to its algebraic group in positive characteristic. An integrable module is stable under the twists by group element…

Matthew Westaway

Ulf Rehmann and Jun Morita, in their 1989 paper "A Matsumoto-type theorem for Kac-Moody groups", gave a presentation of for any generalised Cartan matrix and field $…
