Antisymmetric characters and Fourier duality (Q2025625): Difference between revisions

Based on the quantum McKay correspondence (c.f. section 2 of this paper for an elementary and self-contained expiation), the authors consider the \textit{ADE} classification related to quantum $\mathfrak{sl}_2$. In the paper under review, a quantum group is considered as a simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ with a natural number $k$ (the level). The authors introduced anti-symmetric characters for $\mathfrak{g}$ at level $k$ and constructed a $C^{\ast}$-algebra of these characters, which is the Verlinde algebra of the corresponding quantum group. Moreover, they investigate the Fourier duality to study the spectral theory. Finally, in the \textit{ADE} Lie theory, there is a correspondence between the eigenvalues of the Coxeter element and the eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix. A generalization of the adjacency matrices and the Coxeter elements for Verlinde algebras of simple Lie algebras at any level is studied, including generalized Dynkin diagrams and higher Dynkin diagrams as special cases.
