Abstract

Dixmier and Moeglin gave an algebraic condition and a topological condition for recognising the primitive ideals among the prime ideals of the universal enveloping algebra of a finite-dimensional complex Lie algebra; they showed that the primitive, rational, and locally closed ideals coincide. In modern terminology, they showed that the universal enveloping algebra of a finite-dimensional complex Lie algebra satisfies the Dixmier-Moeglin equivalence. We define quantities which measure how "close" an arbitrary prime ideal of a noetherian algebra is to being primitive, rational, and locally closed; if every prime ideal is equally "close" to each of these three properties, then we say that the algebra satisfies the strong Dixmier-Moeglin equivalence. Using the example of the universal enveloping algebra of sl_2(C), we show that the strong Dixmier-Moeglin equivalence is stronger than the Dixmier-Moeglin equivalence. For a simple complex Lie algebra g, a non root of unity q\neq 0 in an infinite field K, and an element w of the Weyl group of g, De Concini, Kac, and Procesi have constructed a subalgebra U_q[w] of the quantised enveloping K-algebra U_q(g). These quantum Schubert cells U_q[w] are known to satisfy the Dixmier-Moeglin equivalence and we show that they in fact satisfy the strong Dixmier-Moeglin equivalence. Along the way, we show that commutative affine domains, uniparameter quantum tori, and uniparameter quantum affine spaces satisfy the strong Dixmier-Moeglin equivalence.

Birational Equivalences for Kac--Moody Borel Enveloping Algebras

A Coxeter ordering of the simple roots of a finite-rank Kac--Moody algebra determines a finite family of commuting real-root vectors. We prove that $U^{\geq0}(\mathfrak g)$ is birationally equivalent to $Z\otimes\mathbb A_n$, where $Z$ is the residual Coxeter centralizer, by identifying the Coxeter localization $U^{\geq0}(\mathfrak g)[\mathbf X^{-1}]$ with $Z\otimes\mathbb A_n[\mathbf x^{-1}]$. For symmetrizable Cartan matrices the residual algebra is generated by finite Coxeter windows and is finitely presented. For the generic quantum Borel with torus dual to the root lattice, we prove the analogous birational equivalence.

A diagrammatic presentation for every pivotal pointed fusion category

We provide a generators and relations presentation of pivotal pointed fusion categories, $Vec(G,ω,π)$. Unlike the well-known skeletal model, our presentation is strict and allows multiple isomorphic objects. Our main tool is skein theory, which allows us to apply topological tools to understand the relations of morphisms in the category.

The Kazhdan-Lusztig category of $\mathfrak{osp}_{1|2n}$ at irrational levels

We prove the Kazhdan-Lusztig correspondence for the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{osp}_{1|2n}$ at irrational levels, that is, we show the category $\mathrm{KL}_k^{\rm ev}(\mathfrak{osp}_{1|2n})$ of finite-length even ordinary modules for the affine vertex operator superalgebra of $\mathfrak{osp}_{1|2n}$ at level $k \in \mathbb{C} \setminus \mathbb{Q}$ is braided tensor equivalent to the category of finite-dimensional even weight modules for the quantum group of $\mathfrak{osp}_{1|2n}$ at parameter $q = e^{πi/(2k+2n+1)}$. We also prove that ${\rm KL}_k^{\rm ev}(\mathfrak{osp}_{1|2n})$ is braided tensor equivalent to the category ${\rm KL}_\ell^{\rm ns}(\mathfrak{so}_{2n+1})$ of finite-length ordinary modules with non-spinorial top level for the affine vertex operator algebra of $\mathfrak{so}_{2n+1}$ at level $\ell$ such that $ \frac{1}{\ell+ 2n-1} = \frac{1}{2k+2n+1} + 1 \ \ ({\rm mod}\ 2\mathbb Z).$ Consequently, by gluing vertex operator (super)algebras via tensor categories, we construct a few new families of simple conformal vertex (super)algebras, including the mixed kernel VOAs that were the missing ingredient for proving certain Feigin-Frenkel type dualities in previous work of the first-named author with Linshaw, Nakatsuka, and Sato.
