Three results on representations of Mackey Lie algebras

Abstract: I. Penkov and V. Serganova have recently introduced, for any non-degenerate pairing

W o t i m e s V o m a t h b b C

of vector spaces, the Lie algebra

m a t h f r a k {g l}^{M} = m a t h f r a k {g l}^{M} (V, W)

consisting of endomorphisms of

V

whose duals preserve

W s u b s e t e q V^{*}

. In their work, the category

m a t h b b T_{m a t h f r a k {g l}^{M}}

of

m a t h f r a k {g l}^{M}

-modules which are finite length subquotients of the tensor algebra

T (W o t i m e s V)

is singled out and studied. In this note we solve three problems posed by these authors concerning the categories

m a t h b b T_{m a t h f r a k {g l}^{M}}

. Denoting by

m a t h b b T_{V o t i m e s W}

the category with the same objects as

m a t h b b T_{m a t h f r a k {g l}^{M}}

but regarded as

V o t i m e s W

-modules, we first show that when

W

and

V

are paired by dual bases, the functor

m a t h b b T_{m a t h f r a k {g l}^{M}} o m a t h b b T_{V o t i m e s W}

taking a module to its largest weight submodule with respect to a sufficiently nice Cartan subalgebra of

V o t i m e s W

is a tensor equivalence. Secondly, we prove that when

W

and

V

are countable-dimensional, the objects of

m a t h b b T_{m a t h r m E n d (V)}

have finite length as

m a t h f r a k {g l}^{M}

-modules. Finally, under the same hypotheses, we compute the socle filtration of a simple object in

m a t h b b T_{m a t h r m E n d (V)}

as a

m a t h f r a k {g l}^{M}

-module.
