Abstract

We present an algorithm which computes the annihilator in \({\mathrm {U}}(\mathfrak {sl}(\infty ))\) of any simple highest weight \(\mathfrak {sl}(\infty )\)-module \(L_{\mathfrak {b}}(\lambda )\). This algorithm is based on an infinite version of the Robinson–Schensted algorithm.

To Anthony Joseph on the occasion of his 75th birthday
