Symmetric functions and generalizations (05E05) Lie groups (22E99) Geometric quantization (53D50)

Abstract: We discuss some applications of signature quantization to the representation theory of compact Lie groups. In particular, we prove signature analogues of the Kostant formula for weight multiplicities and the Steinberg formula for tensor product multiplicities. Using symmetric functions, we also find, for type A, analogues of the Weyl branching rule and the Gelfand-Tsetlin theorem. These analogues involve a q-analogue of the Kostant partition function. We show that in type A, this q-analogue is polynomial in the relative interior of the cells of a complex of cones. This chamber complex can be taken to be the same as the chamber complex of the usual Kostant partition function. We present the case of A_2 as a detailed example.
