Poisson structures on affine spaces and flag varieties. I. Matrix affine Poisson space

Abstract

The standard Poisson structure on the rectangular matrix variety M_{m,n}(C) is investigated, via the orbits of symplectic leaves under the action of the maximal torus T of GL_{m+n}(C). These orbits, finite in number, are shown to be smooth irreducible locally closed subvarieties of M_{m,n}(C), isomorphic to intersections of dual Schubert cells in the full flag variety of GL_{m+n}(C). Three different presentations of the T-orbits of symplectic leaves in M_{m,n}(C) are obtained - (a) as pullbacks of Bruhat cells in GL_{m+n}(C) under a particular map; (b) in terms of rank conditions on rectangular submatrices; and (c) as matrix products of sets similar to double Bruhat cells in GL_m(C) and GL_n(C). In presentation (a), the orbits of leaves are parametrized by a subset of the Weyl group S_{m+n}, such that inclusions of Zariski closures correspond to the Bruhat order. Presentation (b) allows explicit calculations of orbits. From presentation (c) it follows that, up to Zariski closure, each orbit of leaves is a matrix product of one orbit with a fixed column-echelon form and one with a fixed row-echelon form. Finally, decompositions of generalized double Bruhat cells in M_{m,n}(C) (with respect to pairs of partial permutation matrices) into unions of T-orbits of symplectic leaves are obtained.

On singular vectors and associated Weyl elements for simply-laced universal affine vertex operator algebras

Given a finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and a complex number $κ$, let $V^κ(\mathfrak{g})$ be the associated universal affine vertex algebra. Gorelik and Kac [GK07] gave a sufficient and necessary condition for $V^κ(\mathfrak{g})$ to be simple. In this paper, for simply-laced $\mathfrak{g}$ and non-critical $κ$, we determine the weights of singular vectors of $V^κ(\mathfrak{g})$ with minimal conformal weights, when $V^κ(\mathfrak{g})$ is not simple. We further determine all the longest Weyl elements in the Kashiwara-Tanisaki character theorem [KT00] which correspond to the weights of the singular vectors.

Modular invariants and NIM-reps

Given a pivotal module category over a spherical fusion category, we introduce the encircling module, a module over the fusion algebra defined using the pivotal structure, and prove that it is isomorphic to the NIM-rep as a fusion algebra module. When applied to the $\mathcal{TM}$ realisation of the modular invariant partition function (arXiv:1911.09024), this identifies the NIM-rep multiplicities with the entries $Z_{I,I^\vee}$ of the modular invariant (its diagonal relative to the charge-conjugation invariant, which is the one given by the regular module category), providing a categorical generalisation of Böckenhauer, Evans and Kawahigashi's results (arXiv:math/9907149). We also show that for indecomposable module categories the dimension condition on $\mathcal{TM}$ required for modular invariance is automatically satisfied, and that $\mathcal{TM}$ is, as an algebra, the full centre of the module category in the sense of Davydov, Kong and Runkel (arXiv:1307.5956), which for module categories of algebras is the full centre of Fjelstad, Fuchs, Runkel and Schweigert (arXiv:hep-th/0612306). Consequently $\mathcal{TM}$ gives rise to Cardy algebras in the sense of Kong and Runkel (arXiv:0807.3356).

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. This expository paper provides details of skein-theoretic work in the setup that allows multiple isomorphic labels in the generators, which didn't previously exist in the literature.
