Abstract: We determine the multiplicity of the irreducible representation V(n) of the simple Lie algebra sl(2,C) as a direct summand of its fourth exterior power $Lambd{a}^{4}V(n)$. The multiplicity is 1 (resp. 2) if and only if n = 4, 6 (resp. n = 8, 10). For these n we determine the multilinear polynomial identities of degree $le7$ satisfied by the sl(2,C)-invariant alternating quaternary algebra structures obtained from the projections $Lambd{a}^{4}V(n)oV(n)$. We represent the polynomial identities as the nullspace of a large integer matrix and use computational linear algebra to find the canonical basis of the nullspace.

Review text

The authors determine the multiplicity of the irreducible representation \(V(n)\) of the simple Lie algebra \(\mathfrak{sl}_2(\mathbb C)\) as a direct summand of its fourth exterior power \(\bigwedge^4V(n)\). The multiplicity is 1 (resp. 2) if and only if \(n=4,6\) (resp. \(n=8,10\)). For these \(n\) the authors determine the multilinear polynomial identities of degree \(\leq 7\) satisfied by the \(\mathfrak{sl}_2(\mathbb C)\)-invariant alternating quaternary algebra structures obtained from the projections \(\bigwedge^4V(n)\mapsto V(n)\). The authors extend the work of \textit{M. R. Bremner} and \textit{I. R. Hentzel} [Lect. Notes Pure Appl. Math. 246, 55--82 (2006; Zbl 1330.17006)] to the fourth exterior power and discover new natural examples of \(n\)-ary generalizations of Lie algebras.
