Root-power quotients of nil-Hecke algebras and Weyl invariant theory

Abstract

We study nil-Hecke quotients defined by powers of root coordinates. We identify their central ideals through the determinant components of root-orbit power ideals. Apolarity and discriminant removal reduce the graded dual centers to directional bounds on invariant polynomials. We determine their Hilbert series for every exponent and root orbit in all irreducible crystallographic types except $E_6,E_7,E_8$. Relative discriminants compare centers for reflection subgroups and transfer equivariant resolutions. Coordinate-root centers in types $B$ and $C$ are Grassmannian cohomology rings. We classify self-injectivity in type $A$, in rank two, and in type $F_4$, and determine the first nonsemisimple centers in the remaining classical families. For an explicit open set of reflection parameters, the polynomial image of the rational Cherednik algebra at $t=0$ is the full nil-Hecke algebra. This realizes our algebras as Cherednik quotients and their finite centers as closed subschemes on a section of the generalized Calogero--Moser space.

A Tensor 2-Product of 2-Representations of $\mathfrak{sl}_{2}^{+}$

We construct an explicit abelian model for the operation of tensor $2$-product for $2$-representations of $\mathfrak{sl}_{2}^{+}$, specifically the product of a simple $2$-representation $\mathcal{L}(1)$ with a given abelian $2$-representation $\mathcal{V}$ taken from the $2$-category of algebras. We study the case $\mathcal{V}=\mathcal{L}(1)$ in detail and identify the resulting $2$-representation. Our $2$-product construction partially confirms a conjecture of Rouquier from 2008.

Intertwining operators for representations of covering groups of reductive $p$-adic groups

Let $G$ be a covering group of a reductive $p$-adic group. We study intertwining operators between parabolically induced representations of $G$ and prove that they satisfy certain adjointness relations. The Harish-Chandra $μ$-function is defined as a composition of such intertwining operators for opposite parabolic subgroups of $G$. It can be seen as a complex rational function and we give an explicit formula for it in terms of poles and zeros. The adjointness of the intertwining operators is an important ingredient to prove the formula for the $μ$-function. To locate the poles of $μ$, we construct a continuous family of Hermitian forms on a family of parabolically induced representations.

The refined Broué conjecture for RoCK blocks of double covers of symmetric and alternating groups

Recently, Kleshchev and Livesey proved the existence of RoCK $p$-blocks for double covers of symmetric and alternating groups over large enough coefficient rings. They proved that these RoCK blocks of double covers are Morita equivalent to standard ``local" blocks via bimodules with endopermutation source. Based on this, Kleshchev and Livesey proved that RoCK blocks are splendidly Rickard equivalent to their Brauer correspondents. The analogous result for blocks of symmetric groups, a theorem of Chuang and Kessar, was an important step in Chuang and Rouquier ultimately proving Broué's abelian defect group conjecture for symmetric groups. In this paper we show that the Morita and splendid Rickard equivalences constructed by Kleshchev and Livesey descend to the ring $\mathbb{Z}_p$ of $p$-adic integers, hence prove Kessar and Linckelmann's refinement of Broué's abelian defect group conjecture for these RoCK blocks.
