On products of sl_n characters and support containment

Publication date 21 December 2007

Abstract: Let

l a m b d a

,

m u

,

u

and

h o

be dominant weights of

m a t h f r a k s l_{n}

satisfying

l a m b d a + m u = u + h o

. Let

V_{l a m b d a}

denote the highest weight module corresponding to

l a m b d a

. Lam, Postnikov, Pylyavskyy conjectured a sufficient condition for

V_{l a m b d a} o t i m e s V_{m u}

to be contained in

V_{u} o t i m e s V_{h o}

as

m a t h f r a k s l_{n}

-modules. In this note we prove a weaker version of the conjecture. Namely we prove that under the conjectured conditions every irreducible

m a t h f r a k s l_{n}

-module which appears in the decomposition of

V_{l a m b d a} o t i m e s V_{m u}

does appear in the decomposition of

V_{u} o t i m e s V_{h o}

.
