This paper presents a geometric construction of the McKay-Slodowy correspondence, which extends the classical McKay correspondence. The classical McKay correspondence says: for a finite subgroup G of SL_2(C), there is a bijection between…

A new type of conjectures on characters of finite groups, related to the McKay conjecture, have recently been proposed. In this paper, we study these conjectures for symmetric groups.

The Alperin--McKay conjecture relates irreducible characters of a block of an arbitrary finite group to those of its $p$-local subgroups. A refinement of this conjecture was stated by the author in a previous paper. We prove that this…

This is the final draft, containing very minor proof-reading corrections. Let G in SL(n,\C) be a finite subgroup and \fie: Y -> X = \C^n/G any resolution of singularities of the quotient space. We prove that crepant exceptional prime…

In the 1970's, George Mackey pointed out an analogy that exists between tempered representations of semisimple Lie groups and unitary representations of associated semidirect product Lie groups. More recently, Nigel Higson refined Mackey's…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $P$ a Sylow $2$-subgroup of $G$. We obtain both asymptotic and explicit bounds for the number of odd-degree irreducible complex representations of $G$ in terms of the size of the abelianization of $P$. To do…

Let $G$ be a finite group, and $\alpha$ a nontrivial character of $G$. The McKay graph $\mathcal{M}(G,\alpha)$ has the irreducible characters of $G$ as vertices, with an edge from $\chi_1$ to $\chi_2$ if $\chi_2$ is a constituent of…

In this paper we show that the irreducible representations of a finite inverse semigroup $S$ over an algebraically closed field $F$ are in bijection with the conjugacy classes of $S$ if the characteristic of $F$ is zero or a prime number…

The two dimensional Jacobian Conjecture says that a morphism $f:\mathbb{C}[x,y]\to \mathbb{C}[x,y]$ having an invertible Jacobian, is invertible. We show that a morphism $f$ having an invertible Jacobian is invertible, in each of the…

The Myhill isomorphism is a variant of the Cantor-Bernstein theorem. It states that, from two injections that reduces two subsets of $\mathbb{N}$ to each other, there exists a bijection $\mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{N}$ that preserves them. This…

In this paper, we explore the derived McKay correspondence for several reflection groups, namely reflection groups of rank two generated by reflections of order two. We prove that for each of the reflection groups $G=G(2m,m,2)$, $G_{12}$,…

We prove the Alperin-McKay Conjecture for all $p$-blocks of finite groups with metacyclic, minimal non-abelian defect groups. These are precisely the metacyclic groups whose derived subgroup have order $p$. In the special case $p=3$, we…

Let $G$ be a finite solvable or symmetric group and let $B$ be a $2$-block of $G$. We construct a canonical correspondence between the irreducible characters of height zero in $B$ and those in its Brauer first main correspondent. For…

Let $G$ be a semiabelian variety defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of prime characteristic. We describe the intersection of a subvariety $X$ of $G$ with a finitely generated subgroup of $G(K)$.

Sp\"ath showed that the Alperin-McKay conjecture in the representation theory of finite groups holds if the so-called inductive Alperin-McKay condition holds for all finite simple groups. In a previous article, we showed that the…

A conjecture in [Ish20] states that for a finite subgroup $G$ of $GL(2; \mathbb{C})$, a resolution $Y$ of $\mathbb{C}^2/G$ is isomorphic to a moduli space $\mathcal{M}_{\theta}$ of $G$-constellations for some generic stability parameter…

A complete mapping of a group $G$ is a bijection $\phi\colon G\to G$ such that $x\mapsto x\phi(x)$ is also bijective. Hall and Paige conjectured in 1955 that a finite group $G$ has a complete mapping whenever $\prod_{x\in G} x$ is the…
