Group representations play a central role in theoretical physics. In particular, in quantum mechanics unitary --- or, in general, projective unitary --- representations implement the action of an abstract symmetry group on physical states…

We define basic notions in the category of conic representations of a topological group and prove elementary facts about them. We show that a conic representation determines an ordinary dynamical system of the group together with a…

We give a common framework for the classification of projective spin irreducible representations of a Weyl group, modeled after the Springer correspondence for ordinary representations.

The main result of this article is an application of the theory of invariant convex cones of Lie algebras to the study of unitary representations of Lie supergroups. It also includes an exposition of recent results of the second author on…

We show that the mirabolic quantum group $MU(n)$ is a comodule algebra over the quantized enveloping algebra $U_v(\mathfrak{sl}_n)$, and use this structure to give a complete classification of its finite dimensional representations. In…

The extension of FRT quantization theory for the nonsemisimple CK groups is suggested. The quantum orthogonal CK groups are realized as the Hopf algebras of the noncommutative functions over an associative algebras with nilpotent…

We study Property (T) for locally compact quantum groups, providing several new characterisations, especially related to operator algebraic ergodic theory. Quantum Property (T) is described in terms of the existence of various Kazhdan type…

The group theoretical approach to the relativistic wave equations on the real reducible spaces for spin~0, 1/2 and~1 massless particles is considered. The invariant wave equations which determine the appropriate irreducible representations…

We start with the observation that the quantum group SL_q(2), described in terms of its algebra of functions has a quantum subgroup, which is just a usual Cartan group. Based on this observation we develop a general method of constructing…

We classify irreducible representations of connected compact Lie groups whose orbit space is isometric to the orbit space of a representation of a finite extension of (positive dimensional) toric group. They turn out to be exactly the…

We consider compact matrix quantum groups whose fundamental corepresentation matrix has entries which are partial isometries with central support. We show that such quantum groups have a simple representation as semi-direct product quantum…

We define new compact matrix quantum groups whose intertwiner spaces are dual to tensor categories of three-dimensional set partitions -- which we call spatial partitions. This extends substantially Banica and Speicher's approach of the so…

We associate Popa systems (= standard invariants of subfactors) to the finite dimensional representations of compact quantum groups. We characterise the systems arising in this way: these are the ones which can be ``represented'' on finite…

Quantum-mechanical concepts can be formulated in constructive finite terms without loss of their empirical content if we replace a general unitary group by a unitary representation of a finite group. Any linear representation of a finite…

This is a survey paper about representation theory and noncommutative geometry of reductive p-adic groups G. The main focus points are: 1. The structure of the Hecke algebra H(G), the Harish-Chandra-Schwartz algebra S(G) and the reduced…

In math.RT/0302174 we developed a framework to study representations of groups of the form $G((t))$, where $G$ is an algebraic group over a local field $K$. The main feature of this theory is that natural representations of groups of this…

We show that irreducible unitary representations of nilpotent super Lie groups can be obtained by induction from a distinguished class of sub super Lie groups. These sub super Lie groups are natural analogues of polarizing subgroups that…

Wigner's classification has led to the insight that projective unitary representations play a prominent role in quantum mechanics. The physics literature often states that the theory of projective unitary representations can be reduced to…

The Weil representation of the symplectic group associated to a finite abelian group of odd order is shown to have a multiplicity-free decomposition. When the abelian group is p-primary, the irreducible representations occurring in the Weil…

These notes present a quick introduction to the q-deformations of semisimple Lie groups from the point of view of unitary representation theory. In order to remain concrete, we concentrate entirely on the case of the lie algebra…
