In particular, we prove that a simple d-dimensional representation $
ho: B_3 o GL(V)$ is determined up to isomorphism by the eigenvalues $lambda_1, lambda_2, ..., lambda_d$ of the image of the generators for d=2,3 and a choice of a $delta=sqrt{det
ho(sigma_1)}$ for d=4 or a choice of $delta=sqrt[5]{det
ho(sigma_1)}$ for d=5. We also s howed that such representations exist whenever the eigenvalues and $delta$ are not roots of certain polynomials $Q_{ij}^{(d)}$, which are explicitly given. In this case, we construct the matrices via which the generators act on V. As an application of our techniques, we also obtain nontrivial q-versions of some of Deligne’s formulas for dimensions of representations of exceptional Lie groups. | Source: | arXiv, math.RT/9912013 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
