We review the construction and applications of exactly Poincar\'e invariant quantum mechanical models of few-degree of freedom systems. We discuss the construction of dynamical representations of the Poincar\'e group on few-particle Hilbert…
We classify the possible behaviour of Poincar\'e-Dulac normal forms for dynamical systems in $R^n$ with nonvanishing linear part and which are equivariant under (the fundamental representation of) all the simple compact Lie algebras and…
Let G be a connected reductive group defined over Q_p. The set of crystals contained in a given G-isocrystal is viewed from a Bruhat-Tits building-theoretic vantage point as a kind of tubular neighborhood of a skeleton characterized by a…
We apply the theory of branches in Bruhat-Tits trees, developed in previous works by the second author and others, to the study of two dimensional representations of finite groups over the ring of integers of a number field. We provide a…
These lectures on the combinatorics and geometry of 0/1-polytopes are meant as an \emph{introduction} and \emph{invitation}. Rather than heading for an extensive survey on 0/1-polytopes I present some interesting aspects of these objects;…
In these lectures we review the motivation, principles of and (circumstantial) evidence for the program of unification of the fundamental forces. In an appendix, we review the group theory pertinent to the program.
As an appropriate analog of the Euclidean short-time Fourier transform, we study a windowed version of the Helgason-Fourier transform on the complex unit ball and translate the theory of modulation/coorbit spaces. As a result, atomic…
These are detailed notes for a lecture on "Non-associative Algebraic Structures: Classification and Structure" which I presented as a part of my Agrega\c{c}\~ao em Matem\'atica e Applica\c{c}\~oes (University of Beira Interior, Covilh\~a,…
Lie groups over local fields furnish prime examples of totally disconnected, locally compact groups. We discuss the scale, tidy subgroups and further subgroups (like contraction subgroups) for analytic endomorphisms of such groups. The text…
Let $G$ be a reductive group over a nonarchimedean local field $F$. In the quest for a classification of irreducible smooth representations of $G$, it is critical to understand the case of supercuspidal representations -- those whose matrix…
Motivated by the interesting and yet scattered developments in representation theory of Banach-Lie groups, we discuss several functional analytic issues which should underlie the notion of infinite-dimensional reductive Lie group: norm…
These notes provide a concise introduction to the representation theory of reductive algebraic groups in positive characteristic, with an emphasis on Lusztig's character formula and geometric representation theory. They are based on the…
This is a resume of the talk delivered at the Symposium on Hodge theory, Degeneration and Complex surfaces, Tagajo, Miyagi, March 2004.
An overview of some basic notions is given, especially with an eye towards somewhat "fractal" examples, such as infinite products of cyclic groups, p-adic numbers, and solenoids.
We continue the program, presented in previous Symposia, of discretizing physical models. In particular we calculate the integral Lorentz transformations with the help of discrete reflection groups, and use them for the covariance of…
This is an extended version of the lecture notes to a mini-course devoted to fractional Brownian motion and delivered to the participants of 7th Jagna International Workshop.
This article is an elaboration of a talk given at an international conference on Operator Theory, Quantum Probability, and Noncommutative Geometry held during December~20--23, 2004, at the Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata. The lecture…
This writeup summarises some of the highlights from the 2015 Rencontres de Blois, with a compression ratio of about 100:1 relative to the original presentations.
This survey is based on a series of five lectures, given May 3--7, 2010, at the Centre de Recerca Matematica, Barcelona. The goal of the lectures was to present aspects of the theory of foliation dynamical systems which have particular…
Let H be a connected reductive group defined over a non-archimedean local field F of characteristic p>0. Using Poincar\'e series, we globalize supercuspidal representations of H(F) in such a way that we have control over ramification at all…
