We describe a Hopf algebraic approach to the Grothendieck ring of representations of subgroups $H_\pi$ of the general linear group GL(n) which stabilize a tensor of Young symmetry $\{\pi\}$. It turns out that the representation ring of the…

Let $k[x]_{(x)}$ be the polynomial ring $k[x]$ localized in the maximal ideal $(x)\subseteq k[x]$. We study the Hilbert functor parameterizing ideals of colength $n$ in this ring {\it having support at the origin}. The main result of this…

Let $p$ be a prime number, $\Bbbk$ a field of characteristic $p$ and $G$ a finite $p$-group acting on a standard graded polynomial ring $S = \Bbbk[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ as degree-preserving $\Bbbk$-algebra automorphisms. Assume that $G$ is…

Let $Q$ be a quiver and $R$ an associative ring. A representation by $R$-modules of $Q$ is called strongly fp-injective if it admits a pure acyclic injective resolution in the category of representations. It is shown that such…

When the standard representation of a crystallographic Coxeter group is reduced modulo an odd prime p, one obtains a finite group G^p acting on some orthogonal space over Z_p . If the Coxeter group has a string diagram, then G^p will often…

We explain a new relationship between formal group laws and ring spectra in stable homotopy theory. We study a ring spectrum denoted DB which depends on a commutative ring B and is closely related to the topological Andre-Quillen homology…

Recently the first example of a family of pro-$p$ groups, for $p$ a prime, with full normal Hausdorff spectrum was constructed. In this paper we further investigate this family by computing their finitely generated Hausdorff spectrum with…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group with an open subgroup $H$ with the Kunze-Stein property, and let $\pi$ be a unitary representation of $H$. We show that the representation $\widetilde{\pi}$ of $G$ induced from $\pi$ is an…

Lurie's representability theorem gives necessary and sufficient conditions for a functor to be an almost finitely presented derived geometric stack. We establish several variants of Lurie's theorem, making the hypotheses easier to verify…

Let $k$ be an algebraic field extension of $\mathbb{Q}$ and let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over $k$ of dimension $d \geq 2$. We study the pro-representability of the Chow group $CH^{p}(X)$ with $2 \leq p \leq d$. When certain Hodge…

In a previous paper it was shown that a certain family of varieties suggested by Lusztig, is not enough to construct all irreducible complex representations of reductive groups over finite rings coming from the ring of integers in a local…

Let Pi be a unitary representation of GL_2(Q_p), topologically of finite length. We describe the sub-representation Pi^{an} made of its locally analytic vectors, and its filtration by radius of analyticity, in terms of the phi-Gamma module…

For a finite group $G$, there is a map $RO(G) \to {\rm Pic}(Sp^G)$ from the real representation ring of $G$ to the Picard group of $G$-spectra. This map is not known to be surjective in general, but we prove that when $G$ is cyclic this map…

Given a finitely-generated group $\pi$ and a linear algebraic group $G$, the representation variety Hom$(\pi,G)$ has a natural filtration by the characteristic varieties associated to a rational representation of $G$. Its algebraic…

We initiate a unified, axiomatic study of noncommutative algebras R whose prime spectra are, in a natural way, finite unions of commutative noetherian spectra. Our results illustrate how these commutative spectra can be functorially ``sewn…

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…

Let $G$ be a complex reductive algebraic group. In this paper, we give a geometric definition of a unipotent representation of $G$. Our definition generalizes the notion of a special unipotent representation, due to Barbasch-Vogan and…

Let $G$ be an affine algebraic group defined over field $k$ of characteristic zero. We study the derived moduli space of G-local systems on a pointed connected CW complex X trivialized at the basepoint of $X$. This derived moduli space is…

Given a finite group G and a field F, a G-set X gives rise to an F[G]-permutation module F[X]. This defines a map from the Burnside ring of G to its representation ring over F. It is an old problem in representation theory, with…

Let $G = N \rtimes A$, where $N$ is a graded Lie group and $A = \mathbb{R}^+$ acts on $N$ via homogeneous dilations. The quasi-regular representation $\pi = \mathrm{ind}_A^G (1)$ of $G$ can be realised to act on $L^2 (N)$. It is shown that…
