We calculate certain ext-groups between modules for a linear algebraic group. The results are in agreement with the Lusztig conjecture.

The Grothendieck conjecture for hyperbolic curves over finite fields was solved affirmatively by Tamagawa and Mochizuki. On the other hand, (a ``weak version'' of) the Grothendieck conjecture for some hyperbolic curves over algebraic…

We investigate almost minimal actions of abelian groups and their crossed products. As an application, given multiplicatively independent integers $p$ and $q$, we show that Furstenberg's $\times p,\times q$ conjecture holds if and only if…

Let $\C(\Gamma)$ be the set of isomorphism classes of the finite groups that are homomorphic images of $\Gamma$. We investigate the extent to which $\C(\Gamma)$ determines $\Gamma$ when $\Gamma$ is a group of geometric interest. If…

In this paper, we construct a quantization functor, associating a complex vector space H(V) to a finite dimensional symplectic vector space V over a finite field of odd characteristic. As a result, we obtain a canonical model for the Weil…

We construct the finite-dimensional continuous complex representations of $\mathrm{SL}_2$ over compact discrete valuation rings of even residual characteristic. We also prove that the complex group algebras of $\mathrm{SL}_2$ over finite…

Motivated by analogous results for the symmetric group and compact Lie groups, we study the distribution of the number of fixed vectors of a random element of a finite classical group. We determine the limiting moments of these…

For quantum groups at a root of unity, there is a web of theorems (due to Bezrukavnikov and Ostrik, and relying on work of Lusztig) connecting the following topics: (i) tilting modules; (ii) vector bundles on nilpotent orbits; and (iii)…

We adapt the conjectural local Langlands parameterization to split metaplectic groups over local fields. When $\tilde G$ is a central extension of a split connected reductive group over a local field (arising from the framework of Brylinski…

We introduce {\em admissible collections} for a finite group $G$ and use them to prove that most of the finite classical groups in non-defining characteristic satisfy the {\em Quillen dimension at $p$ property}, a strong version of…

Let $(G,G')$ be a reductive dual pair of a symplectic group and an orthogonal group over a finite field of odd characteristic. The Howe correspondence establishes a correspondence between a subset of irreducible characters of $G$ and a…

It is one of the wonderful ``coincidences'' of the theory of finite groups that the simple group G of order 25920 arises as both a symplectic group in characteristic 3 and a unitary group in characteristic 2. These two realizations of G…

The Lusztig correspondence is a bijective mapping between the Lusztig series indexed by the conjugacy class of a semisimple element $s$ in the connected component $(G^*)^0$ of the dual group of $G$ and the set of irreducible unipotent…

The aim of this paper is to unify the theory of ends of finitely generated groups with that of ends of locally compact, metrizable and connected topological groups. In both theories one proves that, if the number of ends is finite, then it…

In this paper we study higher level Deligne--Lusztig representations of reductive groups over discrete valuation rings, with finite residue field $\mathbb{F}_q$. In previous work we proved that, at even levels, these geometrically…

Let $G$ be a real reductive Lie group, $L$ a compact subgroup, and $\pi$ an irreducible admissible representation of $G$. In this article we prove a necessary and sufficient condition for the finiteness of the multiplicities of $L$-types…

It was conjectured by H. Zassenhaus that a torsion unit of an integral group ring of a finite group is conjugate to a group element within the rational group algebra. The object of this note is the computational aspect of a method developed…

In this paper, we prove the uniqueness of certain Fourier-Jacobi models for the split exceptional group $G_2$ over finite fields with odd characteristic. Similar results are also proved for $Sp_4$ and $U_4$.

The algorithm of computing generalized Green functions of a finite reductive group contains some unkonwn scalars occuring from the F_q structure of irreducible local systems on unipotent classes on G. In this paper, we determine such…

Pascal Baseilhac and Stefan Kolb recently introduced the Lusztig automorphism $L$ of the $q$-Onsager algebra $\mathcal O_q$. In this paper, we express each of $L, L^{-1}$ as a formal sum involving some quantum adjoints. In addition, (i) we…
