CHARACTER FACTORIZATIONS FOR REPRESENTATIONS OF GL(n, C)
CHAYAN KARMAKAR
ABSTRACT. The aim of this paper is to give another proof of a theorem of D.Prasad,
Theorem 2 of [DP], which calculates the character of an irreducible representation of
GL(mn, C)at the diagonal elements of the form t·cn, where t= (t1, t2,··· , tm)
(C)mand cn= (1, ωn, ω2
n,··· , ωn1
n), where ωn=e
2πı
n, and expresses it as a product
of certain characters for GL(m, C)at (tn).

1. INTRODUCTION
In the work [DP] of Dipendra Prasad, he discovered a certain factorization theorem for
characters of GL(mn, C)at certain special elements of the diagonal torus, those of the
form
t·cn=
t
...
ωn1
nt
,
where t= (t1, t2,··· , tm)and ωnis a primitive nth root of unity. D. Prasad proved that
the character of a finite dimensional highest weight representation πλof GL(mn, C)of
highest weight λat such elements t·cnis the product of characters of certain highest
weight representations of GL(m, C)at the element tn= (tn
1, tn
2,··· , tn
m). This work
of D.Prasad was recently generalized for all classical groups in [AK]. Both the works
[DP] and [AK] are achieved via direct manipulation with the Weyl character formula
expressed as a determinantal identity. The present work aims at giving another proof of
Prasad’s factorisation theorem in which we manipulate directly with the Weyl numerator
which is an alternating sum over the Weyl group. Assume that for each k,0k
n1, there are exactly mintegers in λ+ρmn that are congruent to kmodulo n; this is
a necessary condition for the character of the associated representation of GL(mn, C)to
be nonzero at some element of the form t·cn(see Proposition 1below for a proof). If

this necessary condition on λ+ρmn is satisfied, we can replace λ+ρmn by its conjugate
w0(λ+ρmn) = µ,w0Smn, which affects the numerator in the Weyl character formula
only by a sign, such that the first mentries in µare a set of (distinct) integers that are
congruent to 0modulo n, the next mentries are congruent to 1modulo nand so on. Then
we sum the Weyl numerator over various left cosets of a particularly chosen subgroup
Rwhich is isomorphic to Sn
m. We find that there is a subgroup Csuch that those cosets
of Rwhich have a representative from Ccontribute a nonzero term whereas sum over
cosets not contained in CR contribute zero. Adding the summations obtained for each
of these distinct cosets, we get the Weyl numerator of a representation of GL(m, C)nat
the diagonal element tnin each of GL(m, C)in GL(m, C)n. This gives a proof of the
factorization theorem of Prasad, hopefully a more conceptual one; this is Theorem 4.1 of
this paper which we refer to for a more precise statement of the Theorem.
The paper is written in the hope that manipulations with the Weyl group may be available
in many more situations, yielding character identities of the kind obtained in [DP] as well
as [AK].
2. CALCULATION OF THE WEYL DENOMINATOR Aρ
Our work involves factorizing the Weyl numerator and the denominator. Since the Weyl
denominator is a special case of the Weyl numerator (for λ= 0), in particular if we
prove a factorization theorem for the numerator, it proves a factorization thorem for the
Weyl denominator. However, the Weyl denominator is much a simpler expression, and its
factorization is easy enough, so we begin with the factorization of the Weyl denominator
