Four examples of Beilinson-Bernstein localization

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Let mathfrakg be a complex semisimple Lie algebra. The Beilinson-Bernstein localization theorem establishes an equivalence of the category of mathfrakg-modules of a fixed infinitesimal character and a category of modules over a twisted sheaf of differential operators on the flag variety of mathfrakg. In this expository paper, we give four detailed examples of this theorem when mathfrakg=mathfraksl(2,mathbbC). Specifically, we describe the mathcalD-modules associated to finite-dimensional irreducible mathfrakg-modules, Verma modules, Whittaker modules, discrete series representations of SL(2,mathbbR), and principal series representations of SL(2,mathbbR).
