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…
Arthur has conjectured that the unitarity of a number of representations can be shown by finding appropriate automorphic realizations. This has been verified for classical groups by Moeglin and for the exceptional Chevalley group G_2 by…
An example of a finite dimensional factorizable ribbon Hopf C-algebra is given by a quotient H=u_q(g) of the quantized universal enveloping algebra U_q(g) at a root of unity q of odd degree. The mapping class group M_{g,1} of a surface of…
Mapping class groups of Haken 3-manifolds enjoy many of the homological finiteness properties of mapping class groups of 2-manifolds of finite type. For example, H(M) has a torsionfree subgroup of finite index, which is geometrically finite…
The work of Bernstein-Zelevinsky and Zelevinsky gives a good understanding of irreducible subquotients of a reducible principal series representation of $GL_n(F)$, $F$ a $p$-adic field (without specifying their multiplicities which is done…
Presentations for the holomorphs of abelian groups of the form $C_{p^n} \times 1^{m}$ for $p$=2 or an odd prime are given. These presentations extend the results given in Burnside's well-known text on finite groups on the holomorphs for the…
I present a direct proof of Lemma 3(a) from O. V. Kulikova's work on torsion in the group $F/[M,N]$, using only Proposition 1.2 of Chiswell-Collins-Huebschmann on combinatorially aspherical presentations. In particular, I show that if two…
For all sufficiently large odd integers $n$, the following version of Higman's embedding theorem is proved in the variety ${\cal B}_n$ of all groups satisfying the identity $x^n=1$. A finitely generated group $G$ from ${\cal B}_n$ has a…
We generalize a result of Araki (1985) on indecomposable group representations with invariant (necessarily indefinite) inner product and irreducible subrepresentation to Hopf $*$-algebras. Moreover, we characterize invariant inner products…
We develop an approach to the character theory of certain classes of finite and profinite groups based on the construction of a Lie algebra associated to such a group, but without making use of the notion of a polarization which is central…
In this survey, we shall be concerned with the category of finite-dimensional representations of the untwisted quantum affine algebras when the quantum parameter q is not a root of unity. We review the foundational results of the subject,…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group defined over a non-archimedean locally compact field $F$ of odd residue characteristic. Let $\theta$ be an $F$-rational involution of $G$ and $H$ be the reductive $F$-group $G^\theta$. We…
In this article, we study the Schur mutiplier of the discrete as well as the finite Heisenberg groups and their t-variants. We describe the representation groups of these Heisenberg groups and through these give a construction of their…
This note is an application of classification results for finite-dimensional Nichols algebras over groups. We apply these results to generalizations of Fomin--Kirillov algebras to complex reflection groups. First, we focus on the case of…
We give an affirmative answer to the question whether there exist Lie algebras for suitable closed subgroups of the unitary group $U(\mathcal{H})$ in a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ with $U(\mathcal{H})$ equipped with the strong operator…
This is the first in a series of papers devoted to an analogue of the metaplectic representation, namely, the minimal unitary representation of an indefinite orthogonal group; this representation corresponds to the minimal nilpotent…
In this paper we give a complete description of the set of discrete faithful representations SH(M) uniformizing a compact, orientable, hyperbolizable 3-manifold M with incompressible boundary, equipped with the strong topology, with the…
Given any finitely presented group G we find a triangular algebra such that has two presentations, one with fundamental group G and another with trivial group. Thus proving that given a collection G1,...,Gn of finitely presented groups…
Let $G$ be a group that is relatively hyperbolic with respect to a collection of subgroups $\{H_{\lambda}\}_{\lambda\in \Lambda}$. Suppose that $G$ is given by a finite relative presentation $\mathcal{P}$ with respect to this collection. We…
I extend the framework of rigid analytic geometry to the setting of algebraic geometry relative to monoids, and study the associated notions of separated, proper, and overconvergent morphisms. The category of affine manifolds embeds as a…
