Let $F/F_{0}$ be a quadratic extension of non-archimedean locally compact fields of residue characteristic $p\neq 2$. Let $R$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from $p$. For $\pi$ a supercuspidal representation of…
We construct invariant quasimorphisms for groups acting on the circle. Furthermore, we provide a criterion for the non-extendablity of the resulting quasimorphisms and an explicit formula which relates the values of our quasimorphisms to…
In the paper we consider a realization of a finite dimensional irreducible representation of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{gl}_n$ in the space of functions on the group $GL_n$. It is proved that functions corresponding to Gelfand-Tsetlin…
Given a compact Gelfand pair (G,K) and a locally compact group L, we characterize the class P_K^\sharp(G,L) of continuous positive definite functions f:G\times L\to \C which are bi-invariant in the G-variable with respect to K. The…
Let $N(\Gamma,G)$ be the number of homomorphisms from $\Gamma$ to $G$ up to conjugation by $G$. Physics of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=4$ supersymmetric gauge theories predicts that $N(\Gamma,G)=N(\Gamma , \tilde G)$ when $\Gamma$ is a…
For a $p$-adic field $F$, the embeddings of a tame supercuspidal representation of $G= {\rm GL}_n (F)$ in the space of smooth functions on the set of symmetric matrices in $G$ are determined.
Let $\Gamma=\Gamma(2n,q)$ be the dual polar graph of type $Sp(2n,q)$. Underlying this graph is a $2n$-dimensional vector space $V$ over a field ${\mathbb F}_q$ of odd order $q$, together with a symplectic (i.e. nondegenerate alternating…
It is shown for all local fields $\mathbb{F}$ which are of characteristic different from $2$ that any distribution on $GL_{n+1}(\mathbb{F})$ which is invariant under conjugation by $GL_n(\mathbb{F})$ is also invariant under transposition.…
It is well known that the pair $(\mathcal{S}_n,\mathcal{S}_{n-1})$ is a Gelfand pair where $\mathcal{S}_n$ is the symmetric group on $n$ elements. In this paper, we prove that if $G$ is a finite group then $(G\wr \mathcal{S}_n, G\wr…
There are two superanalogs of the general linear group: GL(m|n) and GQ(n). For any supercommutative superalgebra C let G(C) be the set of C-points of the supermanifold G. Here there are described the GQ(n; C)-invariant functions on Q(n; C)…
We consider Holder continuous GL(2,R)-valued cocycles over a transitive Anosov diffeomorphism. We give a complete classification up to Holder cohomology of cocycles with one Lyapunov exponent and of cocycles that preserve two transverse…
In this note we prove the following three algebraic facts which have applications in the theory of holonomy groups and homogeneous spaces: Any irreducibly acting connected subgroup $G \subset Gl(n,\rr)$ is closed. Moreover, if $G$ admits an…
We study irreducible representations of the Hecke algebra of the pair $({\rm PGL}_2 (F[\epsilon] / (\epsilon^2)) , {\rm PGL}_2 (\mathcal{O}[\epsilon] / (\epsilon^2)))$ where $F$ is a local non-Archimedean field of characteristic different…
Let $F$ be a finite field, and let $\mathbb{E}$ be either a quadratic field extension $E/F$ or the split algebra $F \oplus F$. We study distinguished representations of $\rm{SL}_{2n}(F)$ by the subgroup $H_{\flat} := \rm{SL}_{2n}(F) \cap…
In this work, we consider a family of Gelfand pairs $(K \ltimes N, N)$ (in short $(K,N)$) where $N$ is a two step nilpotent Lie group, and $K$ is the group of orthogonal automorphisms of $N$. This family has a nice analytic property: almost…

We study general aspects of the reductive dual pair correspondence, also known as Howe duality. We make an explicit and systematic treatment, where we first derive the oscillator realizations of all irreducible dual pairs: $(GL(M,\mathbb…
We show that for any irreducible representation of $Sp_{4n}(F_{q})$, the subspace of all its $Sp_{2n}(F_{q^{2}})$-invariants is at most one-dimensional. In terms of Lusztig symbols, we give a complete list of irreducible unipotent…
