Main results include: (1) A complete determination of Ext groups between Weyl modules whose highest weights differ by a single root and (2) Determination of Ext^1 between an exterior power of the defining representation and any Weyl module. The significance of these results for modular representation theory of GL_n is discussed in several Remarks. Notably the first result leads to a calculation of Ext groups between neighboring Weyl modules for GL_n and also recovers the GL_n case of a recent result of Andersen. Some generalities about Ext groups between Weyl modules and a brief overview of known results about these groups are also included.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2005-05-18T03:03:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20G05", "20G10" ], "keywords": [ "ext groups", "paper studies extension groups", "modular representation theory", "highest weights differ", "first result" ], "note": { "typesetting": "Plain TeX", "pages": 37, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2005math......5370K" } } }
