Grothendieck rings of towers of generalized Weyl algebras in the finite orbit case

Abstract

Previously we showed that the tensor product of a weight module over a generalized Weyl algebra (GWA) with a weight module over another GWA is a weight module over a third GWA. In this paper we compute tensor products of simple and indecomposable weight modules over generalized Weyl algebras supported on a finite orbit. This allows us to give a complete presentation by generators and relations of the Grothendieck ring of the categories of weight modules over a tower of generalized Weyl algebras in this setting. We also obtain partial results about the split Grothendieck ring. We described the case of infinite orbits in previous work.
