In a previous paper the author and D. Vogan defined and studied a Hecke algebra module structure on a vector space spanned by the involutions in a Weyl group. In this paper this study is continued by relating it to the asymptotic Hecke…

To each partition $\frak p$ of $n$ we associate in a canonical way a simple $S_n$ module with an orthogonal basis indexed by Young diagrams in a way which carries over immediately to the quantized case. With this we show that the Hecke…

Let $G$ be a direct product of inner forms of general linear groups over non-archimedean locally compact fields of residue characteristic $p$ and let $K^1$ be the pro-$p$-radical of a maximal compact open subgroup of $G$. In this paper we…

We associate with every Renner monoid $R$ a \emph{generic Hecke algebra} $\H(R)$ over $\mathbb{Z}[q]$ which is a deformation of the monoid $\mathbb{Z}$-algebra of $R$. If $M$ is a finite reductive monoid with Borel subgroup $B$ and…

A positive linear recurrence sequence is of the form $H_{n+1} = c_1 H_n + \cdots + c_L H_{n+1-L}$ with each $c_i \ge 0$ and $c_1 c_L > 0$, with appropriately chosen initial conditions. There is a notion of a legal decomposition (roughly,…

We construct an explicit generating sets $F_n$ and $\tilde F_n$ of the alternating and the symmetric groups, which make the Cayley graphs $C(Alt(n), F_n)$ and $C(Sym(n), \tilde F_n)$ a family of bounded degree expanders for all sufficiently…

Let K be a local non-archimedian field, F=K((t)) and let G be a split semi-simple group. The purpose of this paper is to study certain analogs of spherical (and Iwahori) Hecke algebras for representations of the group G(F) and its central…

We formulate a precise conjecture that, if true, extends the converse theorem of Hecke without requiring hypotheses on twists by Dirichlet characters or an Euler product. The main idea is to linearize the Euler product, replacing it by…

We derive explicit formulae for the subalgebra zeta functions of all higher Heisenberg Lie algebras over an arbitrary compact discrete valuation ring $\mathfrak{o}$. To this end, we develop Hecke-theoretic techniques for the enumeration, by…

We introduce the notion of {\bf a}-walk $S(n)=a_1 X_1+\dots+a_n X_n$, based on a sequence of positive numbers ${\bf a}=(a_1,a_2,\dots)$ and a Rademacher sequence $X_1,X_2,\dots$. We study recurrence/transience (properly defined) of such…

We study symmetric random walks on finitely generated groups of orientation-preserving homeomorphisms of the real line. We establish an oscillation property for the induced Markov chain on the line that implies a weak form of recurrence.…

Hecke studies the distribution of fractional parts of quadratic irrationals with Fourier expansion of Dirichlet series. This method is generalized by Behnke and Ash-Friedberg, to study the distribution of the number of totally positive…

For a prime number $q\geq 5$ and a positive integer $N$ prime to $q$, Ribet proved the action of the Hecke algebra on the component group of the Jacobian variety of the modular curve of level $Nq$ at $q$ is "Eisenstein", which means the…

We study the enumeration of closed walks of given length and algebraic area on the honeycomb lattice. Using an irreducible operator realization of honeycomb lattice moves, we map the problem to a Hofstadter-like Hamiltonian and show that…

Let $p$ be a prime number and let $n$ be a non-zero natural number. We compute the descending Loewy series of the algebra $R\_n/pR\_n$, where $R\_n$ denotes the ring of virtual ordinary characters of the symmetric group $S\_n$.

In this paper, we investigate the distribution of $k$-free numbers in a class of $\alpha$-random walks on the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}$. In these walks, the walker starts from a non-negative integer $r$ and moves to the right by $a$…

We study the distribution of consecutive sums of two squares in arithmetic progressions. If $\{E_n\}_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$ is the sequence of sums of two squares in increasing order, we show that for any modulus $q$ and any congruence classes…

A LAnKe (also known as a Lie algebra of the $n$th kind, or a Filippov algebra) is a vector space equipped with a skew-symmetric $n$-linear form that satisfies the generalized Jacobi identity. The symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_m$ acts on the…

We investigate the extensions of the Hecke algebras of finite (complex) reflection groups by lattices of reflection subgroups that we introduced, for some of them, in our previous work on the Yokonuma-Hecke algebras and their connections…

Paszkiewicz's conjecture asserts that given a decreasing sequence $T_1\ge T_2\ge \dots$ of positive contractions on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $H$, the product $S_n=T_nT_{n-1}\cdots T_1$ converges in the strong operator…
