Abstract: By properly specializing the parameters irreducible modules of maximal dimension for the De Concini-Kac version of the Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum algebra in type $A$ may be transformed into modules over Lusztig's infinitesimal quantum algeba. Thus obtained modules have a simple socle and a simple head, and share the same dimension as the infinitesimal Verma modules. Despite these common features we find that they are never isomorphic to infinitesimal Verma modules unless they are irreducible. The same carry over to the modular setup for the special linear groups in positive characteristic.

Review text

In the paper [Publ. Res. Inst. Math. Sci. 27, No. 2, 347--366 (1991; Zbl 0752.17011)], for the type A case, Date, Jimbo, Miki and Miwa, gave explicit realizations of most irreducible representations of the DeConcini-Kac version of the Drinfeld-Jimbo quantized enveloping algebra at a complex root of unity. These gave rise, by specialization, to certain modules for Lusztig's quantum algebra \(u\), as shown by \textit{T. Nakashima} in [J. Math. Phys. 43, No. 4, 2000--2014 (2002; Zbl 1059.17010)]. In the paper under review, the authors compare the \(u\)-modules obtained in this fashion with Humphreys' infinitesimal Verma modules, quantized by \textit{H. H. Andersen, P. Polo} and \textit{K. Wen} [Am. J. Math. 114, No. 3, 571--604 (1992; Zbl 0755.17005)]. It is shown that, although sharing several features, these two kinds of modules are never isomorphic, except in case of irreducibility, something which rarely happens.
