On enhanced reductive groups (I): Parabolic Schur algebras and the dualities related to degenerate double Hecke algebras (2005.13152v2)

Abstract: An enhanced algebraic group $\uG$ of $G=\GL(V)$ over $\bbc$ is a product variety $\GL(V)\times V$, endowed with an enhanced cross product. Associated with a natural tensor representation of $\uG$, there are naturally Levi and parabolic Schur algebras $\mathcal{L}$ and $\mathcal{P}$ respectively. We precisely investigate their structures, and study the dualities on the enhanced tensor representations for variant groups and algebras. In this course, an algebraic model of so-called degenerate double Hecke algebras (DDHA) is produced, and becomes a powerful implement. The connection between $\mathcal{L}$ and DDHA gives rise to two results for the classical representations of $\GL(V)$: (i) A duality between $\GL(V)\times\Gm$ and DDHA where $\Gm$ is the one-dimensional multiplicative group; (ii) A branching duality formula. With aid of the above discussion, we further obtain a parabolic Schur-Weyl duality for $\uG\rtimes \Gm$. What is more, the parabolic Schur subalgebra turns out to have only one block. The Cartan invariants for this algebra are precisely determined.
