AI Article Synopsis

  • I develop a canonical basis for the tensor product of two types of modules from a quantized enveloping algebra: one with a simple highest weight and the other with a simple lowest weight.
  • This canonical basis is designed to work well with various submodules of the tensor product, enhancing its utility in the structure of the algebra.
  • As a result of this work, I also provide a method to construct a canonical basis for a modified version of the quantized enveloping algebra itself.

Article Abstract

I construct a canonical basis in the tensor product of a simple integrable highest weight module with a simple integrable lowest weight module of a quantized enveloping algebra. This basis is simultaneously compatible with many submodules of the tensor product. As an application, I obtain a construction of a canonical basis of (a modified form of) the quantized enveloping algebra.
