We provide two candidates for symplectic Weiss calculus based on two different, but closely related, collections of groups. In the case of the non-compact symplectic groups, i.e., automorphism groups of vector spaces with symplectic forms,…
We study three fundamental topics in the representation theory of disconnected algebraic groups whose identity component is reductive: (i) the classification of irreducible representations; (ii) the existence and properties of Weyl and dual…
We show that untwisted respectively twisted conjugacy classes of a compact and simply connected Lie group which satisfy a certain integrality condition correspond naturally to irreducible highest weight representations of the corresponding…
We determine the conjugacy classes of semisimple elements in the symplectic groups ${\rm Sp}(2m,F)$, where $F$ is an arbitrary field of characteristic not $2$. This note was originally a letter dated 23 March, 2006, from G.E. Wall to Cheryl…
We develop our earlier approach to the Weyl calculus for representations of infinite-dimensional Lie groups by establishing continuity properties of the Moyal product for symbols belonging to various modulation spaces. For instance, we…
The transformation behaviour of the vector valued theta function of a positive-definite even lattice under the metaplectic group $\mathrm{Mp}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ is described by the Weil representation. We show that the invariants of this…
We show that irreducible unitary representations of nilpotent super Lie groups can be obtained by induction from a distinguished class of sub super Lie groups. These sub super Lie groups are natural analogues of polarizing subgroups that…
We give an explanation of the bijection between geometric and arithmetic diagrams attached to supercuspidal unipotent representations of a simple p-adic group which is based purely on algebra. The second version contains much additional…
If $A$ is a unital associative ring and $\ell \geq 2$, then the general linear group $\mathrm{GL}(\ell, A)$ has root subgroups $U_\alpha$ and Weyl elements $n_\alpha$ for $\alpha$ from the root system of type $\mathsf A_{\ell - 1}$.…
We prove two results on convex subsets of Euclidean spaces invariant under an orthogonal group action. First, we show that invariant spectrahedra admit an equivariant spectrahedral description, i.e., can be described by an equivariant…
Let $G$ be a connected semisimple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let $\th$ be an automorphism of $G$. We give a characterization of $\th$-twisted spherical conjugacy classes in $G$ by a…
We show that the enumeration of linear orbits and conjugacy classes of $\mathbf{Z}$-defined unipotent groups over finite fields is "wild" in the following sense: given an arbitrary scheme $Y$ of finite type over $\mathbf{Z}$ and integer…
We define Weyl functors, global modules for equivariant map Lie superalgebras $(\g \otimes A)^{\Gamma}$, where $\g$ is basic classical $\mathbb{C}$- Lie superalgebra and $A$ is an associative commutative unital $\mathbb{C}$-algebra. Under…
Let B be a reductive Lie subalgebra of a semi-simple Lie algebra of the same rank both over the complex numbers. To each finite dimensional irreducible representation $V_\lambda$ of F we assign a multiplet of irreducible representations of…
Let $\ell$ be a prime. If ${\mathbf G} $ is a compact connected Lie group, or a connected reductive algebraic group in characteristic different from $\ell$, and $\ell$ is a good prime for ${\mathbf G}$, we show that the number of weights of…
It is known that characters of irreducible representations of finite Lie algebras can be obtained using theWeyl character formula including Weyl group summations which make actual calculations almost impossible except for a few Lie algebras…
Let $G$ be a connected and simply connected semisimple algebraic group over $\Bbb Q$ and let $\Gamma\subset G(\Bbb Q)$ be an arithmetic subgroup. Let $K_\infty\subset G(\Bbb R)$ be a maximal compact subgroup and let $d$ be the dimension of…
We obtain a characterization of the binary commutator on completely simple semigroups, using their Rees matrix representation. Consequently, we prove that a regular semigroup is nilpotent (solvable) if and only if it is simple, and all its…
We prove that any twisted generalized Weyl algebra satisfying certain consistency conditions can be embedded into a crossed product. We also introduce a new family of twisted generalized Weyl algebras, called multiparameter twisted Weyl…
We construct natural selfmaps of compact cohomgeneity one manifolds with finite Weyl group and compute their degrees and Lefschetz numbers. On manifolds with simple cohomology rings this yields in certain cases relations between the order…
