We construct inductive systems of finite-dimensional $\\mathcal{U}_q\\mathfrak{b}$-modules twisted by $w$, which provide representations in the category $\\mathcal{O}^w$. We also establish a classification of simple modules in these categories $\\mathcal{O}^w$. We explore convergent phenomenon of $q$-characters of representations of quantum affine algebras, which conjecturally give the $q$-characters of representations in $\\mathcal{O}^w$. Furthermore, we propose a conjecture concerning the relationship between the category $\\mathcal{O}$ and the twisted category $\\mathcal{O}^w$, and we propose a possible connection with shifted quantum affine algebras.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-04-17T20:59:12.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quantum affine borel algebras", "weyl group twists", "representations", "shifted quantum affine algebras", "weyl group elements" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 30, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
