We revisit the constructions given by J. Pevtsova and the author of refined invariants for finite dimensional representations of infinitesimal group schemes $\mathbb G_{(r)}$ over a field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. Our focus is on the…

J. Pevtsova and the author constructed a ``universal $p$-nilpotent operator" for an infinitesimal group scheme $G$ over a field $k$ of characteristic $p > 0$ which led to coherent sheaves on the scheme of 1-parameter subgroups of $G$…

This work concerns the representation theory and cohomology of a finite unipotent supergroup scheme $G$ over a perfect field $k$ of positive characteristic $p\ge 3$. It is proved that an element $x$ in the cohomology of $G$ is nilpotent if…

Let G be an infinitesimal group scheme of finite height r and V(G) the scheme which represents 1-parameter subgroups of G. We consider sheaves over the projectivization P(G) of V(G) constructed from a G-module M. We show that if P(G) is…

Given a finite group scheme $\cG$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $\Char(k)=p>0$, we introduce new invariants for a $\cG$-module $M$ by associating certain morphisms $\deg^j_M : U_M \lra \Gr_d(M) \ \…

Our aim is to transfer several foundational results from the modular representation theory of finite groups to the wider context of profinite groups. We are thus interested in profinite modules over the completed group algebra k[[G]] of a…

We initiate the study of representations of elementary abelian $p$-groups via restrictions to truncated polynomial subalgebras of the group algebra generated by $r$ nilpotent elements, $k[t_1,..., t_r]/(t^p_1,..., t_r^p)$. We introduce new…

We introduce the notion of a neutral representation of a finite group, or finite group scheme, $G$; a representation $V$ with the property that if a gerbe $\mathcal{G}$ over a field $k$ that is a form of the classifying stack $\mathcal{B}…

We give a unifying description of all inequivalent vector bundles over the 2-dimensional sphere $S^2$ by constructing suitable global projectors $p$ via equivariant maps. Each projector determines the projective module of finite type of…

We show a surprising link between singularity theory and the invariant subspace problem of nilpotent operators as recently studied by C. M. Ringel and M. Schmidmeier, a problem with a longstanding history going back to G. Birkhoff. The link…

The article covers developments in the representation theory of finite group schemes over the last fifteen years. We start with the finite generation of cohomology of a finite group scheme and proceed to discuss various consequences and…

We construct two families of refinements of the (projectivized) support variety of a finite dimensional module $M$ for a finite group scheme $G$. For an arbitrary finite group scheme, we associate a family of {\it non maximal rank…

The theories of $\pi$-points and modules of constant Jordan type have been a topic of much recent interest in the field of finite group scheme representation theory. These theories allow for a finite group scheme module $M$ to be restricted…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated nilpotent group and let G be a complex reductive algebraic group. The representation variety $\mathrm{Hom}(\Gamma,G)$ and the character variety $\mathrm{Hom}(\Gamma,G)//G$ each carry a natural topology,…

We consider the groups G which arise from real semisimple Jordan algebras via the Tits-Koecher-Kantor construction. Such a G is characterized by the fact that it admits a parabolic subgroup P=LN which is conjugate to its opposite, and for…

We classify the $(\mathfrak{g},K)$-modules generated by nearly holomorphic Hilbert-Siegel modular forms by the global method. As an application, we study the image of projection operators on the space of nearly holomorphic Hilbert-Siegel…

For a connected reductive group G and a finite-dimensional G-module V, we study the invariant Hilbert scheme that parameterizes closed G-stable subschemes of V affording a fixed, multiplicity-finite representation of G in their coordinate…

We extend our previous definition of K-theoretic invariants for operator systems based on hermitian forms to higher K-theoretical invariants. We realize the need for a positive parameter $\delta$ as a measure for the spectral gap of the…

The aim of this paper is to describe the topological $K$-ring, in terms of generators and relations, of a Springer variety $\mathcal{F}_{\lambda}$ of type $A$ associated to a nilpotent operator having Jordan canonical form whose block sizes…

For a finite group scheme G over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p>0 we study G-modules M, which are defined in terms of properties of their pull-backs along p-points of G. We show that the corresponding subcategories…
