Cyclic Sieving Phenomenon on Dominant Maximal Weights

Abstract. Dominant maximal weights are significant objects in the representation theory of affine Kac-Moody algebras. We construct a (bi)cyclic sieving phenomenon on the union of dominant maximal weights for highest weight modules over affine Kac-Moody algebras in a way not depending on types, ranks and levels. Exploiting this phenomenon, we derive closed and recursive formulae for the number of dominant maximal weights for every highest weight module and observe level-rank duality on the cardinalities. We also observe interesting interrelations among the recursive formulae of classical affine Kac-Moody algebras.
