  • Abstract
    We calculate the invariant factors of the standard lattice inside the basic representation of untwisted Kac–Moody algebras of ADE-type. This, in turn, gives the invariant factors of Cartan matrices for symmetric groups in prime characteristic as well as for the Iwahori–Hecke algebra at roots of unity.
