Representation theory of Lie algebras

Generalized Verma module

In mathematics, generalized Verma modules are a generalization of a (true) Verma module, and are objects in the representation theory of Lie algebras. They were studied originally by James Lepowsky in the 1970s. The motivation for their study is that their homomorphisms correspond to invariant differential operators over generalized flag manifolds. The study of these operators is an important part of the theory of parabolic geometries. (Wikipedia).

David Meyer (1/30/18): Some algebraic stability theorems for generalized persistence modules

From an algebraic point of view, generalized persistence modules can be interpreted as finitely-generated modules for a poset algebra. We prove an algebraic analogue of the isometry theorem of Bauer and Lesnick for a large class of posets. This theorem shows that for such posets, the int

Commutative algebra 44 Flat modules

This lecture is part of an online course on commutative algebra, following the book "Commutative algebra with a view toward algebraic geometry" by David Eisenbud. We summarize some of the properties of flat modules. In particular we show that for finitely presented modules over local ring

What is a Module? (Abstract Algebra)

A module is a generalization of a vector space. You can think of it as a group of vectors with scalars from a ring instead of a field. In this lesson, we introduce the module, give a variety of examples, and talk about the ways in which modules and vector spaces are different from one an

Modular forms: Eisenstein series

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on modular forms. We give two ways of looking at modular forms: as functions of lattices in C, or as invariant forms. We use this to give two different ways of constructing Eisenstein series. For the other lectures in the course see http

Holomorphic connections on Riemann surfaces have been widely studied, as well as their monodromy representations. Their moduli spaces have natural Poisson/symplectic structures, and they can be both deformed and quantized: varying the Riemann surface structure leads to the action of mappin

Ben Elias: Categorifying Hecke algebras at prime roots of unity

Thirty years ago, Soergel changed the paradigm with his algebraic construction of the Hecke category. This is a categorification of the Hecke algebra at a generic parameter, where the parameter is categorified by a grading shift. One key open problem in categorification is to categorify He

Dividing rational expressions

Learn how to divide rational expressions. A rational expression is an expression in the form of a fraction, usually having variable(s) in the denominator. Recall that to divide by a fraction, we multiply by the reciprocal of the fraction. The same rule applies when we want to divide by a r
