# Monday, November 16 We'll focus on the following theorem: :::{.theorem title="Special case of Humphreys-Verma conjecture, 1973"} Let $p> 2h-2$ and $\lambda\in X_r(T)$, then $\hat{Q}_r(\lambda)$ has a $G\dash$structure. ::: Recall Donkin's tilting conjecture: :::{.conjecture title="DTilt"} Let $\lambda\in X_r(T)$, then \[ T(\hat{\lambda})\downarrow_{G_r T} = \hat{Q}_r(\lambda) .\] where $\lambda = 2(p-1)\rho + w_0\lambda$. ::: :::{.remark} There is a counterexample to DTilt conjecture due to Bendel-Pillen-Nakano-Subaje (2019) to DTilt for $\Phi = G_2$ and $p=2$. Note that this doesn't apply to the previous conjecture, which could still be true. ::: ## Existence of $G\dash$Structures: Some Preliminaries We want to consider $G\dash$structures on injective modules. Let $V, W$ be $G\dash$modules, then \[ \Hom_{G_r}(V, W) = [V\dual \tensor W]^{G_r} ,\] which is a module on which $G_r$ acts trivially where we pull back the action using the map $G \to G/G_r$. Moreover, there exists a $G\dash$modules $M$ such that $\Hom_{G_r}(V, W) = M^{(r)}$ twisted $r$ times. We can consider blocks, e.g. by considering $\pr_\nu M$. This is the sum of all submodules with composition factors in the same block as $L(\nu)$. We can write $M = \bigoplus_{\nu\in \bar{C}_\ZZ} \pr_\nu M$. ![$\bar{C}_\ZZ$](figures/image_2020-11-16-14-03-33.png){width=350px} Thus we can write \[ \Hom_{G_r}(V, M) = \bigoplus_{\nu\in \bar{C}_\ZZ} \Hom_{G_r}^\nu(V, W) = \qty{ \pr_\nu M }^{(r)} .\] Note that for $p>h$ the Coxeter number, $0\in \bar{C}_\ZZ$, since \[ 0 \leq \ip{0+\rho}{\alpha\dual} = \ip{\rho}{\alpha_0\dual} = h-1 < p ,\] where $h = \ip{\rho}{\alpha_0\dual}$. We can then write \[ \Hom_G(V, W) = \Hom_{G_r}(V, W)^{G_r} \subseteq \Hom_{G_r}^0(V, W) ,\] where the middle term involves trivial modules. ### Sketch of Proof :::{.claim} Let $\lambda \in X_r(T)$ and consider $M \da \St_r \tensor L( (p^r-1)\rho + w_0 \lambda )$. Then $\hat{Q}_r(\lambda)$ is a direct summand of $M$ as a $G_r T\dash$module. ::: In other words, if we restrict this down to $G_r T\dash$modules, we get a $G_r T\dash$summand. Note that if DFilt holds, $M$ is a Tilting module. Recall that $M$ is a projective and injective $G_r T\dash$ module. It suffices to show that $\hat{L}_r(\lambda)\in \soc_{G_r T} M$, for which we look at the hom space \[ \Hom_{G_r T} (\hat{L}_r(\lambda), \St_r \tensor L( (p^r-1)\rho + w_0 \lambda ) ) &= \Hom_{G_r T} (\hat{L}_r(\lambda) \tensor \St_r, L( (p^r-1)\rho + w_0 \lambda ) ) \\ &= \Hom_{G_r T} (\St_r, \hat{L}_r(-w_0 \lambda) \tensor L( (p^r-1)\rho + w_0 \lambda ) ) ,\] \todo[inline]{Something about $(p^r-1)\rho$ being a highest weight? And the last $L$ term being nonzero?} Let $Q_\lambda$ be the injective hull of $L_\lambda$ as a $G\dash$module. This yields an injection $L(\lambda)\injects M$. Since we also have a map into the injective hull, we can extend: \begin{tikzcd} & Q_\lambda \\ L(\lambda) \ar[r, hook]\ar[ur, hook] & M\ar[u, dotted, "\exists \phi"] \supseteq \hat{Q}_r(\lambda) \end{tikzcd} Moreover, $\phi:\hat{Q}_r(\lambda)\to Q_\lambda$ is an injective map since $L(\lambda) \subseteq \soc_{G_r}(\lambda)$. Thus the image $\phi\qty{\hat{Q}_r(\lambda) } \cong \hat{Q}_r(\lambda)$ and is a $G_r T$ summand of $\phi(M)$ since $\hat{Q}_r(\lambda)$ is an injective $G_r T\dash$module. We have a split exact sequence \[ 0 \to \phi(\hat{Q}_r(\lambda)) \injects \phi(M) \to ? \to 0 .\] The idea is now that $\phi(M)$ is a $G\dash$module, so we'll show $\phi(M)$ is indecomposable as both a $G$ and a $G_r T$ module. In this case, we'll have \[ \phi(M) = \phi(\hat{Q}_r(\lambda)) \cong \hat{Q}_r(\lambda) .\] It suffices to prove that $\soc_{G_r} \phi(M) = L_r(\lambda)$. Note that that it suffices to show there's only one summand, since the socle can't be decomposed further, which will yield irreducibility. We have \[ \soc_G \phi(M) = L(\lambda) .\] We also know that $\soc_G \phi(M) \subseteq \soc_{G_r} \phi(M)$. But if $L(\mu) \subseteq \soc_{G_r} \phi(M)$, then it is also contained in $\soc_G \phi(M)$. Hence if $\soc_{G_r}\phi(M)$ is isotypic of type $L(\lambda)$, we have a decomposition \[ \soc_{G_r}\phi(M) &= \bigoplus_{\sigma\in X_r(T)} L(\sigma) \tensor \Hom_{G_r}(L(\sigma), \phi(M)) \\ &= L(\lambda) \tensor \Hom_{G_r}(L(\lambda), \phi(M)) \\ &= \bigoplus_{\nu\in \bar{C}_\ZZ} L(\lambda) \tensor \Hom_{G_r}^\nu (L(\lambda), \phi(M)) ,\] where we've broken this up into blocks. Note that $\phi(M)$ is an indecomposable $G\dash$module, thus using linkage we can conclude that there is only one summand. By the previous statement, we have \[ k = \Hom_{G}(L(\lambda), \phi(M)) \subseteq \Hom_{G_r}^0 (L(\lambda), \phi(M)) ,\] and hence \begin{equation} \soc_{G_r} \phi(M) = L(\lambda) \tensor \Hom_{G_r}^0 (L(\lambda), \phi(M)) .\end{equation} :::{.remark} Up until now, we've only used that $p>h$. If we show that the hom space in the last equality is just the trivial module $k$, then we're done. This would imply that $\soc_{G_r} \phi(M) = L(\lambda)$, in which case $\phi(M)$ is an indecomposable $G_r T\dash$module and $\phi(M) = \hat{Q}_r(\lambda)$. ::: The critical equation to show: \begin{equation} \Hom_{G_r}^0 (L(\lambda), \phi(M)) = k .\end{equation} Suppose that $\Hom_{G_r}^0 (L(\lambda), \phi(M)) \neq k$. Then there exists a $\nu\in X(T)_+ \intersect W_p \cdot 0$ with $\nu\neq 0$ such that $L(\nu)^{(r)} = L(p^r \nu)$ is a composition factor of $\Hom_{G_r}^0 (L(\lambda), \phi(M))$. This would imply that $L(\lambda) \tensor L(\nu)^{(r)} = L(\lambda+ p^r\nu)$ is a composition factor of $\St_r \tensor H^0( (p^r-1)\rho + w_0 \lambda)$. The idea now is to check the weights in this module either by Weyl's character formula or weight estimates. The upshot: for $p>2h-2$, $\lambda+ p^r \nu$ is a weight if $\nu = 0$. $\qed$ How might this bound be lowered? Maybe the condition of the hom space being trivial is too strong, since being indecomposable isn't equivalent to having a simple socle. ## Steinberg Tensor Product Theorem for Injective $G_r T\dash$Modules :::{.proposition title="?"} Let $\lambda_0 \in X_r(T)$ and $\lambda_1 \in X(T)$. Then there exists an isomorphism of $G_r T\dash$modules \[ \hat{Q}_{r+1}(\lambda_0 + p^r \lambda_1)\downarrow_{G_r T} \,\, \cong \hat{Q}_r(\lambda_0) \tensor \hat{Q}_1(\lambda_1)^{(r)} ,\] where the last term is a $G_1 T\dash$module with $G_r$ acting trivially, which thus becomes a $G_r T\dash$module. ::: :::{.remark} Comparing this with the situation where $\lambda_1 \in X(T)_+$, we get \[ L(\lambda_0 + p^r \lambda_1) \cong L(\lambda_0) \tensor L(\lambda_1)^{(r)} ,\] which is an isomorphism of $G\dash$modules. ::: Next time: we'll complete injective modules, and if we have time, we'll talk about cohomology.
