In a previous paper with Anno, we used Bezrukavnikov-Mirkovic-Rumynin's theory of positive characteristic localization and exotic t-structures to give a geometric parametrization of the simples using annular crossingless matchings. Building on this, here we give combinatorial dimension formulae for the simple objects, and compute the Jordan-Holder multiplicities of the simples inside the baby Vermas (in special case where n=1, i.e. that a subregular nilpotent, these were known from work of Jantzen). We use Cautis-Kamnitzer's geometric categorification of the tangle calculus to study the images of the simple objects under the [BMR] equivalence. The dimension formulae may be viewed as a positive characteristic analogue of the combinatorial character formulae for simple objects in parabolic category O for $\\mathfrak{sl}_{m+2n}$, due to Lascoux and Schutzenberger.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-10-24T13:21:50.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "22E47", "14M15", "14L35" ], "keywords": [ "two-row nilpotent central character", "modular representations", "simple objects", "positive characteristic", "combinatorial dimension formulae" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
