We study the category of S p \mathbf {Sp} -equivariant modules over the infinite variable polynomial ring, where S p \mathbf {Sp} denotes the infinite symplectic group. We establish a number of results about this category: for instance, we show that every finitely generated module M M fits into an exact triangle T → M → F → T \to M \to F \to where T T is a finite length complex of torsion modules and F F is a finite length complex of “free” modules; we determine the Grothendieck group; and we (partially) determine the structure of injective modules. We apply these results to show that the twisted commutative algebras Sym ( C ∞ ⊕ ⋀ 2 C ∞ ) \operatorname {Sym}(\mathbf {C}^{\infty } \oplus \bigwedge ^2{\mathbf {C}^{\infty }}) and Sym ( C ∞ ⊕ Sym 2 C ∞ ) \operatorname {Sym}(\mathbf {C}^{\infty } \oplus \operatorname {Sym}^2{\mathbf {C}^{\infty }}) are noetherian, which are the strongest results to date of this kind. We also show that the free 2-step nilpotent twisted Lie algebra and Lie superalgebra are noetherian.

Cohomology of finite tensor categories: Duality and Drinfeld centers
We consider the finite generation property for cohomology of a finite tensor category C \mathscr {C} , which requires that the self-extension algebra of the unit \operatorname {Ext}^\text {\tiny ∙ }_\mathscr {C}(\mathbf {1},\mathbf {1}) is a finitely generated algebra and that, for each object V V in C \mathscr {C} , the graded extension group \operatorname {Ext}^\text {\tiny ∙ }_\mathscr {C}(\mathbf {1},V) is a finitely generated module over the aforementioned algebra. We prove that this cohomological finiteness property is preserved under duality (with respect to exact module categories) and taking the Drinfeld center, under suitable restrictions on C \mathscr {C} . For example, the stated result holds when C \mathscr {C} is a braided tensor category of odd Frobenius-Perron dimension. By applying our general results, we obtain a number of new examples of finite tensor categories with finitely generated cohomology. In characteristic 0 0 , we show that dynamical quantum groups at roots of unity have finitely generated cohomology. We also provide a new class of examples in finite characteristic which are constructed via infinitesimal group schemes.

Let V V be a vertex operator superalgebra with the natural order 2 automorphism σ \sigma . Under suitable conditions on V V , the σ \sigma -fixed subspace V 0 ¯ V_{\bar 0} is a vertex operator algebra and the V 0 ¯ V_{\bar 0} -module category C V 0 ¯ \mathcal {C}_{V_{\bar 0}} is a modular tensor category. In this paper, we prove that C V 0 ¯ \mathcal {C}_{V_{\bar 0}} is a fermionic modular tensor category and the Müger centralizer C V 0 ¯ 0 \mathcal {C}_{V_{\bar 0}}^0 of the fermion in C V 0 ¯ \mathcal {C}_{V_{\bar 0}} is generated by the irreducible V 0 ¯ V_{\bar 0} -submodules of the V V -modules. In particular, C V 0 ¯ 0 \mathcal {C}_{V_{\bar 0}}^0 is a super-modular tensor category and C V 0 ¯ \mathcal {C}_{V_{\bar 0}} is a minimal modular extension of C V 0 ¯ 0 \mathcal {C}_{V_{\bar 0}}^0 . We provide a construction of a vertex operator superalgebra V l V^l for each positive integer l l such that C ( V l ) 0 ¯ \mathcal {C}_{{(V^l)_{\bar 0}}} is a minimal modular extension of C V 0 ¯ 0 \mathcal {C}_{V_{\bar 0}}^0 . We prove that these modular tensor categories C ( V l ) 0 ¯ \mathcal {C}_{{(V^l)_{\bar 0}}} are uniquely determined, up to equivalence, by the congruence class of l l modulo 16.more » « less

Abstract Let $$V_*\otimes V\rightarrow {\mathbb {C}}$$ V ∗ ⊗ V → C be a non-degenerate pairing of countable-dimensional complex vector spaces V and $$V_*$$ V ∗ . The Mackey Lie algebra $${\mathfrak {g}}=\mathfrak {gl}^M(V,V_*)$$ g = gl M ( V , V ∗ ) corresponding to this pairing consists of all endomorphisms $$\varphi $$ φ of V for which the space $$V_*$$ V ∗ is stable under the dual endomorphism $$\varphi ^*: V^*\rightarrow V^*$$ φ ∗ : V ∗ → V ∗ . We study the tensor Grothendieck category $${\mathbb {T}}$$ T generated by the $${\mathfrak {g}}$$ g -modules V , $$V_*$$ V ∗ and their algebraic duals $$V^*$$ V ∗ and $$V^*_*$$ V ∗ ∗ . The category $${{\mathbb {T}}}$$ T is an analogue of categories considered in prior literature, the main difference being that the trivial module $${\mathbb {C}}$$ C is no longer injective in $${\mathbb {T}}$$ T . We describe the injective hull I of $${\mathbb {C}}$$ C in $${\mathbb {T}}$$ T , and show that the category $${\mathbb {T}}$$ T is Koszul. In addition, we prove that I is endowed with a natural structure of commutative algebra. We then define another category $$_I{\mathbb {T}}$$ I T of objects in $${\mathbb {T}}$$ T which are free as I -modules. Our main result is that the category $${}_I{\mathbb {T}}$$ I T is also Koszul, and moreover that $${}_I{\mathbb {T}}$$ I T is universal among abelian $${\mathbb {C}}$$ C -linear tensor categories generated by two objects X , Y with fixed subobjects $$X'\hookrightarrow X$$ X ′ ↪ X , $$Y'\hookrightarrow Y$$ Y ′ ↪ Y and a pairing $$X\otimes Y\rightarrow {\mathbf{1 }}$$ X ⊗ Y → 1 where 1 is the monoidal unit. We conclude the paper by discussing the orthogonal and symplectic analogues of the categories $${\mathbb {T}}$$ T and $${}_I{\mathbb {T}}$$ I T .more » « less
