Lie algebras in $\text{Ver}_4^+$

Serina Hu

TL;DR

This work develops Lie theory in the symmetric tensor category $ ext{Ver}_4^+$ over characteristic $2$, establishing a Koszul-based PBW criterion that identifies Lie algebras as operadic Lie algebras with $[x,x]=0$ on $ ext{ker } d$. It provides a systematic classification of low-dimensional Lie algebras in $ ext{Ver}_4^+$, including structures on $P$, $1+P$, $2\cdot1+P$, and $2P$, and introduces a $4$-center analogue for $U( rak{gl}(m\cdot\mathbf{1}+nP))$, along with quadratic Casimir elements. The paper then develops the representation theory of $ rak{gl}(P)$, identifying two families of irreducibles $L(0,a,b)$ and $L(1,a,b)$, computing their tensor products, and describing how $ ext{GL}(P)$-representations restrict to $ rak{gl}(P)$-representations with parameters in $ ext{GF}(2)$. Overall, the results extend super-Lie theory concepts to characteristic $2$ via Verlinde categories, connecting structural classifications with centers, Casimirs, and representation theory in a coherent framework. The methods leverage the Koszul deformation principle, explicit cohomological data, and detailed analyses of the indecomposable projective $P$ and its role in $ ext{Ver}_4^+$.

Abstract

We develop Lie theory in the category $\text{Ver}_4^+$ over a field of characteristic 2, the simplest tensor category which is not Frobenius exact, as a continuation of arXiv:2406.10201. We provide a conceptual proof that an operadic Lie algebra in $\text{Ver}_4^+$ is a Lie algebra, i.e. satisfies the PBW theorem, exactly when its invariants form a usual Lie algebra. We then classify low-dimensional Lie algebras in $\text{Ver}_4^+$, construct elements in the center of $U(\mathfrak{gl}(X))$ for $X \in \text{Ver}_4^+$, and study representations of $\mathfrak{gl}(P)$, where $P$ is the indecomposable projective of $\text{Ver}_4^+$.
