Abstract

We study the Yangian Yn associated to the general linear Lie algebra gln

over a field of positive characteristic, as well as its shifted analog Ynp?q. Our main result

gives a description of the centre of Ynp?q: it is a polynomial algebra generated by its

Harish-Chandra centre (which lifts the centre in characteristic zero) together with a large

p-centre. Moreover, Ynp?q is free as a module over its center. In future work, it will be

seen that every reduced enveloping algebra U?pglnq is Morita equivalent to a quotient

of an appropriate choice of shifted Yangian, and so our results will have applications in

classical representation theory.
