Abstract:
We investigate (twisted) rings of differential operators on the resolution of singularities of an irreducible component of (where is the (Zariski) closure of the minimal nilpotent orbit of and is the Borel subalgebra of ) using toric geometry, and show that they are homomorphic images of a certain family of associative subalgebras of , which contains the maximal parabolic subalgebra determining . Further, using Fourier transforms on Weyl algebras, we show that (twisted) rings of well-suited weighted projective spaces are obtained from the same family of subalgebras. Finally, we investigate this family of subalgebras from the representation-theoretical point of view and, among other things, rediscover in a different framework irreducible highest weight modules for the UEA of .
