To each finite-dimensional $G$-module $M$, one can define the support variety $V_{G_1}(M)$, which can be regarded as a $G$-stable closed subvariety of the nilpotent cone. A $G$-module is called a tilting module if it has both good and Weyl filtrations. In 1997, it was conjectured by J.E. Humphreys that when $p\\geq h$, the support varieties of the indecomposable tilting modules coincide with the nilpotent orbits given by the Lusztig bijection. In this paper, we shall verify this conjecture when $G=SL_n$ and $p > n+1$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-07-03T17:17:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "support variety", "humphreys conjecture", "reductive algebraic group scheme", "frobenius kernel", "lusztig bijection" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 22, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv150700970H" } } }
