Let $\\chi \\in \\mathfrak g^*$ and denote by $U_\\chi(\\mathfrak g)$ the corresponding reduced enveloping algebra. The Kac--Weisfeiler conjecture, which was proved by Premet, asserts that any finite dimensional $U_\\chi(\\mathfrak g)$-module has dimension divisible by $p^{d_\\chi}$, where $d_\\chi$ is half the dimension of the coadjoint orbit of $\\chi$. Our main theorem gives a classification of $U_\\chi(\\mathfrak g)$-modules of dimension $p^{d_\\chi}$. As a consequence, we deduce that they are all parabolically induced from a 1-dimensional module for $U_0(\\mathfrak h)$ for a certain Levi subalgebra $\\mathfrak h$ of $\\mathfrak g$; we view this as a modular analogue of M{\\oe}glin's theorem on completely primitive ideals in $U(\\mathfrak{gl}_N(\\mathbb C))$. To obtain these results, we reduce to the case $\\chi$ is nilpotent, and then classify the 1-dimensional modules for the corresponding restricted $W$-algebra.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-05-03T14:33:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "minimal dimensional representations", "kac-weisfeiler conjecture", "finite dimensional", "coadjoint orbit", "main theorem" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 24, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
