Review text

The author gives a simplified treatment, with an excellent exposition of the background, of the lowering operators of \textit{A. S. Kleshchev} [J. Lond. Math. Soc., II. Ser. 54, No. 1, 25-38 (1996; Zbl 0854.20014)]. Lowering operators are elements of the universal enveloping algebra (or its Kostant \(\mathbb{Z}\) form, or its quantum analogue) that map a highest weight vector in a \(\text{GL}(n)\) module \(V\) to a highest weight vector in the restriction of \(V\) to \(\text{GL}(n-1)\). The interesting case is when the image vector is nonzero. It then gives a hold on branching rules at the level of vectors. After giving his simplified treatment, the author generalizes his construction to the quantum case and uses it to construct an orthogonal basis for quantum Weyl modules (not at roots of unity). He also sketches how he uses the lowering operators in a preprint to prove a `quantum Mullineux conjecture' for Hecke algebras of symmetric groups at a root of unity. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0882.00036].
