We prove the Kac-Wakimoto character formula for the general linear Lie superalgebra gl(m|n). This formula specializes to the well-known Kac-Weyl character formula when the modules are typical and to the Weyl denominator identity when the module is trivial. We also prove a determinantal character formula for KW-modules using the Kac-Wakimoto character formula.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-10-14T19:23:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "general linear lie superalgebra", "kac-wakimoto character formula", "well-known kac-weyl character formula", "determinantal character formula", "weyl denominator identity" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1310.3798C" } } }
