On representation theory of cyclotomic Hecke-Clifford algebras
Lei Shi, Jinkui Wan
TL;DR
The work develops a complete framework for the representation theory of cyclotomic Hecke-Clifford algebras and their degenerate counterparts by introducing separate parameters and multipartition indexing. It provides explicit constructions of irreducible modules $\mathbb{D}(\underline{\lambda})$ and $D(\underline{\lambda})$ via residue data and intertwining elements, and proves semisimplicity in the separate-parameter regime through dimension-count arguments and Wedderburn theory. A key innovation is the separate-parameter polynomial $P_n^{(\bullet)}(q^2,\underline{Q})$ (and its degenerate analogue) whose nonvanishing encodes semisimplicity, and the resulting complete, nonisomorphic irreducible module sets parameterized by multipartitions. These results imply that generic non-degenerate cyclotomic Hecke-Clifford algebras (and their degenerate analogues) are semisimple, with a precise center description and explicit type classification (M vs Q) tied to combinatorial data. The work thus extends Ariki–Koike-type techniques to a superalgebraic setting and supplies concrete, tableau-based realizations of simples useful for further structural and categorification investigations.
Abstract
In this article, we give an explicit construction of the simple modules for both non-degenerate and degenerate cyclotomic Hecke-Clifford superalgebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic not equal to $2$ under certain condition in terms of parameters in defining these algebras. As an application, we obtain a sufficient condition on the semi-simplicity of these cyclotomic Hecke-Clifford superalgebras via a dimension comparison. As a byproduct, both generic non-degenerate and degenerate cyclotomic Hecke-Clifford superalgebras are shown to be semisimple.
