  • Appeared in 2004:
  • Finitistic dimension and tilting modules for stratified algebras (joint with Oleksandr Khomenko and Volodymyr Mazorchuk); Journal of Algebra 86, 456-475 (2005). For quasi-hereditary or standardly stratified algebras there are well-known upper bounds for the global or finitistic dimensions, but the precise values of these dimensions are usually not known. Recently, the projective and injective dimensions of tilting modules have been related to the global or finitistic dimensions, in particular through a conjecture of Mazorchuk and Parker. This paper contributes new techniques and classes of examples, where the conjecture is true.
  • Filtrations, stratifications and applications, Proceedings of ICRA 10 (Toronto 2002), Fields Institute Communications 40, AMS, 65-111 (2004) . Survey article on cellular, stratified and quasi-hereditary algebras, focussing on applications to representation theory of algebraic groups and Lie algebras.
  • Appeared in 2003:
  • On Hochschild cohomology for orders (joint with Katsunori Sanada and Nicole Snashall); Archiv der Mathematik 81, 627-635 (2003). Certain tiled orders are shown to have periodic resolutions. This is used for determining their Hochschild cohomology, thus generalizing earlier results of Larsen and of Sanada.
  • Appeared in 2002:
  • Relating polynomial GL(n)-representations in different degrees (joint with Anne Henke); Journal fuer die reine und angewandte Mathematik 551, 219-235 (2002). Explicit isomorphisms are constructed between (generalized) Schur algebras in different degrees. This establishes and explains repeating patterns in decomposition matrices of general linear and symmetric groups.
  • Enright's completions and injectively copresented modules (joint with Volodymyr Mazorchuk); Transactions of the American Mathematical Society 354, 2725-2743 (2002). It is shown that the category of (absolutely or relatively) complete modules in the sense of Enright is equivalent to a category of injectively copresented modules, and therefore to the category of eAe-modules for some idempotent e in the algebra A associated with the given block of O. This leads to an easy proof of Deodhar's and Bouaziz's theorem (Enright's conjecture) that completion functors satisfy braid relations. Moreover, the same category is equivalent to some category of Harish-Chandra bimodules (studied by Bernstein and Gelfand) and to some parabolic category O. In the second part of the paper, it is shown that the algebra eAe is projectively (=standardly) stratified. It satisfies a double centralizer property similar to Soergel's results for A itself.
  • An equivalence of two categories of sl(n,C)-modules (joint with Volodymyr Mazorchuk); Algebras and Representation Theory 5, 319-329 (2002). An equivalence is explicitly constructed between 1) a category of (Enright-)complete modules filtered by submodules of Verma modules and 2) a category constructed from a generic Gelfand-Zetlin module by tensoring with finite dimensional modules.
  • Ringel duality and Kazhdan-Lusztig theory; Pacific Journal of Mathematics 203, 415-428 (2002). Kazhdan-Lusztig conjecture (for category O) and Lusztig conjecture (for Schur algebras) are formulated in terms of the structure of tilting modules.
  • Categories of induced modules and standardly stratified algebras (joint with Vyacheslav Futorny and Volodymyr Mazorchuk); Algebras and Representation Theory 5, 259-276 (2002). Generalizations of the BGG-category O are constructed, where certain infinite dimensional modules are the input of parabolic induction. We prove reciprocity formulae and relate the situation to finite dimensional algebras.
  • Appeared in 2001:
  • The coinvariant algebra and representation types of blocks of category O (joint with Thomas Bruestle and Volodymyr Mazorchuk); Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society 33, 669-681 (2001). Using an embedding from the module category of a certain subalgebra of the coinvariant algebra, we classify both the blocks of O and the subcategories of modules with Verma flags into finite, tame and wild representation type.
  • Blocks of category O, double centralizer properties, and Enright's completions; Proceedings of NATO-ASI (Constanta, 2000), Algebras - Representation Theory, 113-134, Kluwer (2001). Survey.
  • Categories of induced modules for Lie algebras with triangular decomposition (joint with Vyacheslav Futorny and Volodymyr Mazorchuk); Forum Math. 13, 641-661 (2001). Some of our previous results for parabolic category O are generalized to Lie algebras with triangular decomposition, in particular to affine Kac-Moody algebras. Again, projectively stratified algebras appear.
  • Double centralizer properties, dominant dimension and tilting modules (joint with Inger Heidi Slungard and Changchang Xi); Journal of Algebra 240, 393-412 (2001). A machine is developped for establishing double centralizer properties from structures in ring theory and representation theory. As applications, new and easy proofs are obtained for both classical and quantized Schur-Weyl duality and for Soergel's double centralizer property for category O.
  • A characteristic free approach to Brauer algebras (joint with Changchang Xi); Transactions of the American Mathematical Society 353, 1489-1505 (2001). Brauer algebras (which arise in representation theory of orthogonal or symplectic groups) are shown to be inflations of group algebras of symmetric groups, in particular they are cellular (which had been proven before by Graham and Lehrer). In some cases we find block decompositions of these algebras.
  • Appeared in 2000:
  • S-subcategories in O (joint with Vyacheslav Futorny and Volodymyr Mazorchuk); manuscripta mathematica 102, 487-503 (2000). A combinatorial description is obtained for certain subcategories of O consisting of complete modules having a quasi-Verma flag. These subcategories have an abelian structure which is different from the one in O.
  • A combinatorial description of blocks in O(P,Lambda) associated with sl(2)-induction (joint with Vyacheslav Futorny and Volodymyr Mazorchuk); Journal of Algebra 231, 86-103 (2000). Analogues of Soergel's results are demonstrated for a generalized BGG-category O. This includes a description of the endomorphism ring of the big projective module as coinvariant algebra, a double centralizer property, and a character formula for tilting modules.
  • A self-injective cellular algebra is weakly symmetric (joint with Changchang Xi); Journal of Algebra 228, 51-59 (2000). Not surprisingly, the main result of this note is the following: A self-injective cellular algebra is weakly symmetric.
  • Cyclotomic Schur algebras and blocks of cyclic defect ; Canadian Mathematical Bulletin 43, 79-86 (2000). Generalizing and reproving a result of C.C.Xi, the algebras in the title are classified. This uses the classification of blocks of cyclic defect of finite groups together with a double centralizer property.
