Abstract

We study the PBW-filtration on the highest weight representations V(λ) of the Lie algebras of type A n and C n . This filtration is induced by the standard degree filtration on \(\mathrm {U}(\mathfrak{n}^{-})\). In previous papers, the authors studied the filtration and the associated graded algebras and modules over the complex numbers. The aim of this paper is to present a proof of the results which holds over the integers and hence makes the whole construction available over any field.
