If α Int(L), then V α = V, so the action of Aut(L) factors through Out(L) = Aut(L)/ Int(L). 16 / 35

58 Induced action on dominant integral weights Fix a Cartan subalgebra and a system {α 1,..., α r } of simple roots, and let Λ + be the set of dominant integral weights.

This grading is unique up to isomorphism and shift. Sketch of proof: End((V λ ) k ) = M k (F) End(V λ ). If k is the Schur index of λ and D represents Br(λ), then D op = M k (F). Thus End((V λ ) k ) admits a Ḡ-grading with End((V λ ) k ) = D op End(V λ ) = D op M r (D). Hence [End((V λ ) k )] = 1, so the Ḡ-grading on (V λ ) k is elementary, i.e., it is induced by a Ḡ-grading on (V λ) k. 21 / 35
