Representations of Lie algebras and Lie superalgebras, algebraic theory (weights) (17B10)

Abstract: Let $fg$ be the Lie superalgebra $fgl(m,n).$ Algorithms for computing the composition factors and multiplicities of Kac modules for $fg$ were given by the second author in 1996, and by J. Brundan in 2003. We give a combinatorial proof of the equivalence between the two algorithms. The proof uses weight and cap diagrams introduced by Brundan and C. Stroppel, and cancelations between paths in a graph $mathcalG$ defined using these diagrams. Each vertex of $mathcalG$ corresponds to a highest weight of a finite dimensional simple module, and each edge is weighted by a nonnegative integer. If $mathcalE$ is the subgraph of $mathcalG$ obtained by deleting all edges of positive weight, then $mathcalE$ is the graph that describes non-split extensions between simple highest weight modules. We also give a procedure for finding the composition factors of any Kac module, without cancelation. This procedure leads to a second proof of the main result.
