We study the construction of premonoidal categories, where the pentagon relation fails, through representations of finite group algebras and their quantum doubles. Both finite group algebras and their quantum doubles have a finite number of…
$O(N)$ invariants are the observables of real tensor models. We use regular colored graphs to represent these invariants, the valence of the vertices of the graphs relates to the tensor rank. We enumerate $O(N)$ invariants as $d$-regular…
We construct a complex of toric varieties we call the quasisymmetric Grassmannian inside the Grassmannian of $r$-planes in $\mathbb{C}^n$. Each irreducible component is a positroid variety and an $S_n$ translate of a toric Richardson…
We introduce a basis of the symmetric functions that evaluates to the (irreducible) characters of the symmetric group, just as the Schur functions evaluate to the irreducible characters of $GL_n$ modules. Our main result gives three…
The coupling coefficients (3j-symbols) for the symmetric (most degenerate) irreducible representations of the orthogonal groups SO(n) in a canonical basis and different semicanonical (tree) bases [with SO(n) restricted to SO(n')\times…
Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a finite 2-group. We show that the 2-category $2\mathrm{Rep}(\mathcal{G})$ of finite semisimple 2-representations is a symmetric fusion 2-category. We also relate the auto-equivalence 2-group of the symmetric monoidal…
The Kronecker product of two Schur functions $s_{\mu}$ and $s_{\nu}$, denoted by $s_{\mu}*s_{\nu}$, is the Frobenius characteristic of the tensor product of the irreducible representations of the symmetric group corresponding to the…
Fix $n \geq 2$ an integer, and let $F$ be a totally real number field. We derive estimates for the finite parts of the $L$-functions of irreducible cuspidal $\operatorname{GL}_n({\bf{A}}_F)$-automorphic representations twisted by class…
Self-similar group actions may be encoded by a class of left cancellative monoids called left Rees monoids, a result obtained by combining pioneering work by Perrot with later work by the first author. Left Rees monoids that are also right…
We give explicit expressions for the Fourier coefficients of Eisenstein series twisted by Dirichlet characters and modular symbols on $\Gamma_0(N)$ in the case where $N$ is prime and equal to the conductor of the Dirichlet character. We…
Motivated by reconstruction results by Rubin, we introduce a new reconstruction notion for permutation groups, transformation monoids and clones, called automatic action compatibility, which entails automatic homeomorphicity. We further…
We investigate the monoid of transformations that are induced by sequences of writing to and reading from a queue storage. We describe this monoid by means of a confluent and terminating semi-Thue system and study some of its basic…
Determination of quasi-invariant generalized functions is important for a variety of problems in representation theory, notably character theory and restriction problems. In this note, we review some new and easy-to-use techniques to show…
In this paper we study the cyclic inverse monoid $\CI_n$ on a set $\Omega_n$ with $n$ elements, i.e. the inverse submonoid of the symmetric inverse monoid on $\Omega_n$ consisting of all restrictions of the elements of a cyclic subgroup of…
We study the zero-sharing behavior among irreducible characters of a finite group. For symmetric groups $S_n$, it is proved that, with one exception, any two irreducible characters have at least one common zero. To further explore this…
Deep metric learning has yielded impressive results in tasks such as clustering and image retrieval by leveraging neural networks to obtain highly discriminative feature embeddings, which can be used to group samples into different classes.…
We obtain several new characterizations of splayedness for divisors: a Leibniz property for ideals of singularity subschemes, the vanishing of a `splayedness' module, and the requirements that certain natural morphisms of modules and…
It is known that some theories of class $S$ are actually factorized into multiple decoupled nontrivial four-dimensional $N=2$ theories. We propose a way of constructing examples of this phenomenon using the physics of half-BPS surface…
Define a Garside monoid to be a cancellative monoid where right and left lcm's exist and that satisfy additional finiteness assumptions, and a Garside group to be the group of fractions of a Garside monoid. The family of Garside groups…
Ramified monoids are a class of monoids introduced by the authors. The main motivation for considering these monoids comes from knot theory, see [3, 4, 5]. Thus, in [2] we have studied the ramified monoids of the symmeytric group and of the…
