Representations of twisted Yangians associated with skew Young diagrams

Publication date 27 September 2004

Abstract: Let

G_{M}

be one of the complex Lie groups

O_{M}

and

S p_{M}

. The irreducible finite-dimensional representations of the group

G_{M}

are labeled by partitions

m u

satisfying certain extra conditions. Let

U

be the representation of

G_{M}

corresponding to

m u

. Regard the direct product

G_{N} i m e s G_{M}

as a subgroup of

G_{N + M}

. Let

V

be the irreducible representation of

G_{N + M}

corresponding to a partition

l a m b d a

. Consider the vector space

W = H o m_{G_{M}} (U, V)

. It comes with a natural action of the group

G_{N}

. Let

n

be sum of parts of

l a m b d a

less the sum of parts of

m u

. For any choice of a standard Young tableau of skew shape

l a m b d a / m u

, we realize

W

as a subspace in the tensor product of

n

copies of the defining

N

-dimensional representation of

G_{N}

. This subspace is determined as the image of a certain linear operator

F (M)

in the tensor product, given by an explicit formula. When M=0 and

W = V

is an irreducible representation of

G_{N}

, we recover the classical realization of

V

as a subspace in the space of all traceless tensors. Then the operator F(0) can be regarded as the analogue for

G_{N}

of the Young symmetrizer, corresponding to the chosen standard tableau of shape

l a m b d a

. Even in the special case M=0, our formula for the operator

F (M)

is new. Our results are applications of representation theory of the twisted Yangian, corresponding to

G_{N}

. In particular,

F (M)

is an intertwining operator between two representations of the twisted Yangian in the

n

-fold tensor product.
