Posets, Weyl Characters, and Representations of Semisimple Lie Algebras
نویسنده
چکیده
This work-in-progress is intended as an exposition of the background material, results, and open problems of a particular poset theoretic study of Weyl characters and semisimple Lie algebra representations begun in the late 1970’s and early 1980’s in the work of Richard P. Stanley and Robert A. Proctor.

Multiplicity-free Products and Restrictions of Weyl Characters
We classify all multiplicity-free products of Weyl characters, or equivalently, all multiplicity-free tensor products of irreducible representations of complex semisimple Lie algebras. As a corollary, we also obtain the classification of all multiplicity-free restrictions of irreducible representations to reductive subalgebras of parabolic type.
متن کاملRepresentations of Semisimple Lie Algebras
This paper studies the representations of semisimple Lie algebras, with care given to the case of sln(C). We develop and utilize various tools, including the adjoint representation, the Killing form, root space decomposition, and the Weyl group to classify the irreducible representations of semisimple Lie algebras.

متن کاملSolitary Bases for Irreducible Representations of Semisimple Lie Algebras∗
The main results of this paper were found while addressing the question: what do the “nice” bases for the irreducible representations of semisimple Lie algebras look like? Using the Gelfand-Zetlin bases for the irreducible representations of gl(n,C) as our model, we take a combinatorial approach to this question by associating a certain kind of directed graph to each weight basis for an irreduc...
