The authors proved that a Weyl module for a simple algebraic group is irreducible over every field if and only if the module is isomorphic to the adjoint representation for $$E_{8}$$ or its highest weight is minuscule. In this paper, we prove an analogous criteria for irreducibility of Weyl modules over the quantum group $$U_{\zeta}({{\mathfrak g}})$$ where $${\mathfrak g}$$ is a complex simple Lie algebra and $$\zeta$$ ranges over roots of unity.more » « less
