In the process we find a new basis for Schur algebras, a truncated form of the usual PBW basis. We also locate the integral Schur algebra within the presented algebra as the analogue of Kostant's Z-form, and show that it has an integral basis which is a truncated version of Kostant's basis.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2000-10-01T20:06:30.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "16S30", "16P10" ], "keywords": [ "universal enveloping algebra", "presenting schur algebras", "rational number field", "integral schur algebra", "simple lie algebra" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 22, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2000math.....10005D" } } }
