Abstract

We investigate the representation theory of the valenced Temperley-Lieb algebras in mixed characteristic. These algebras, as described in characteristic zero by Flores and Peltola, arise naturally in statistical physics and conformal field theory and are a natural deformation of normal Temperley-Lieb algebras. In general characteristic, they encode the fusion rules for the category of $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ tilting modules. We use the cellular properties of the Temperley-Lieb algebras to determine those of the valenced Temperley-Lieb algebras. Our approach is, at heart, entirely diagrammatic and we calculate cell indices, module dimensions and indecomposable modules for a wide class of valenced Temperley-Lieb algebras. We present a general framework for finding bases of cell modules and a formula for their dimensions.

A Course on Lie algebras and Chevalley groups

These are expanded notes from graduate courses about Lie algebras and Chevalley groups held at the University of Stuttgart. In the 1950s Chevalley showed how linear groups over arbitrary fields could be obtained~ -- ~by a uniform procedure~ -- ~from the simple Lie algebras over $\C$ occurring in the Cartan--Killing classification. Together with subsequent variations, Chevalley's work had a profound and long-lasting impact on group theory and Lie theory in general. Classical, and widely used references are the lectures notes by Steinberg (1967) and the monograph by Carter (1972). Our aim here is to present a self-contained introduction to the theory of Chevalley groups, based on recent simplifications arising from Lusztig's fundamental theory of ``canonical bases''. A further feature of our text is that we explicitly incorporate algorithmic methods in our treatment, both for the handling of substantial examples and regarding some aspects of the general theory. Eventually, this may turn into a book project.

On the p-part of the conductor of a generalised character

We show that the $p$-part of the conductor of a generalised character of a finite group is equal to the conductor of its generalised decomposition numbers. We use this to show that $p$-parts of conductors of irreducible characters are preserved under isotypies and perfect isometries that arise in the context of stable equivalences of Morita type with endopermutation source. We apply this to blocks with abelian defect and Frobenius inertial quotient.

On the triviality of inhomogeneous deformations of $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2n)$

We specify a symmetrized mixed-oscillator deformation family of $B(0,n)=\operatorname{osp}(1|2n)$, with even mixed coefficients and one odd square-zero parameter. For every $n\geq1$, we derive its bracket from a faithful oscillator realization and exhibit an odd cochain whose coboundary is the recovered deformation coefficient. The resulting even change of generators is an exact isomorphism over the exterior parameter algebra. For $n=1$, the cochain agrees with the normalization of Bakalov-Sullivan. We give the source relations and the even-central specialization explicitly, together with a Lean 4 formalization.
