Representation theory for linear algebraic groups (20G05) Cohomology theory for linear algebraic groups (20G10)

Abstract: This paper studies extension groups between certain Weyl modules for the algebraic group GL_n over the integers. Main results include: (1) A complete determination of Ext groups between Weyl modules whose highest weights differ by a single root and (2) Determination of Ext^1 between an exterior power of the defining representation and any Weyl module. The significance of these results for modular representation theory of GL_n is discussed in several Remarks. Notably the first result leads to a calculation of Ext groups between neighboring Weyl modules for GL_n and also recovers the GL_n case of a recent result of Andersen. Some generalities about Ext groups between Weyl modules and a brief overview of known results about these groups are also included.

Review text

Let \(G\) be the group scheme \(\text{GL}_n\) over the integers. Let \(\rho\) be the half sum of the positive roots. The first main result, in the numbering of the author, is as follows. Let \(K_\lambda\) denote the Weyl module with highest weight \(\lambda\). Suppose \(\lambda,\mu\) are dominant weights such that \(\mu-\lambda\) is a positive root \(\alpha\). Then \(\text{Ext}^i_G(K_\lambda,K_\mu)\) is cyclic of order \(\langle\lambda+\rho,\alpha^\vee\rangle+1\) for \(i=1\) and vanishes for all other \(i\). The second main result uses the language of partitions rather than dominant weights. It computes \(\text{Ext}^1_G(\Lambda_{|\lambda|},K_\lambda)\) where \(\lambda\) is a partition of \(|\lambda|\) and \(\Lambda_m\) denotes the \(m\)-th exterior power of the defining representation. The proofs use the Skew Representative Theorem of \textit{U. Kulkarni} [J. Algebra 224, No. 2, 248-262 (2000; Zbl 0958.20006)] and also require a detailed understanding of some complexes of skew Schur functors. The paper contains many comments about related subjects, such as modular representation theory of \(\text{GL}_n\).
