Let v and w be nontrivial words in two free groups. We prove that, for all sufficiently large finite non-abelian simple groups G, there exist subsets C of v(G) and D of w(G) of size such that every element of G can be realized in at least…
The main result of the paper is the characterization of those locally compact quantum groups with projection, i.e. non-commutative analogs of semidirect products, which are extensions as defined by L. Vainerman and S. Vaes. It turns out…
We consider a dual pair $(G,G')$, in the sense of Howe, with $G$ compact acting on $L^2(\mathbb R^n)$ for an appropriate $n$ via the Weil Representation. Let $\widetilde{G}$ be the preimage of $G$ in the metaplectic group. Given a genuine…
Let g be a semisimple Lie algebra over the real numbers. We describe an explicit combinatorial construction of the real Weyl group of g with respect to a given Cartan subalgebra. An efficient computation of this Weyl group is important for…
We study the projective geometry of homogeneous varieties $X= G/P\subset P(V)$, where $G$ is a complex simple Lie group, $P$ is a maximal parabolic subgroup and $V$ is the minimal $G$-module associated to $P$. Our study began with the…
Let $G$ be a semi-simple algebraic group over a perfect field $k$. A lot of progress has been made recently in computing the Chow motives of projective $G$-homogenous varieties. When $k$ has positive characteristic, a broader class of…
We construct via generators and relations, generalized Weil representations for analogues of classical $SL(2,k), k$ a field, over involutive base rings $(A, \ast).$ This family of groups covers different kinds of groups, classical and non…
Let $G$ be a reductive group with Borel $B$ and Weyl group $W$. Then $B$-double cosets in $G$ are indexed by the Weyl group, say $O(w)$ for $w\in W$. Then we prove the minimal $B$-double coset in the convolution $O(w_1)*O(w_2)$ is…
In this (partly expository) paper we show, using ideas from the theory of total positivity, how a number of properties of a semisimple group over the complex numbers can be presented purely in terms of the Weyl group. We also describe some…
In this paper we study the projective normality of certain Artin-Schreier curves $Y_f$ defined over a field $\F$ of characteristic $p$ by the equations $y^q+y=f(x)$, $q$ being a power of $p$ and $f\in \F[x]$ being a polynomial in $x$ of…
For the algebraic group $SL_{l+1}(\mathbb{C})$ we describe a system of positive roots associated to conjugacy classes in its Weyl group. Using this we explicitly describe the algebra of regular functions on certain transverse slices to…
An element w of a Weyl group W is called elliptic if it has no eigenvalue 1 in the standard reflection representation. We determine the order of any representative g in a semisimple algebraic group G of an elliptic element w in the…
Let (G,V) be a regular prehomogeneous vector space (abbreviated to PV), where G is a connected reductive algebraic group over C. If $V= \oplus_{i=0}^{n}V_{i}$ is a decomposition of V into irreducible representations, then, in general, the…
Motivated by the analogies between the projective and the almost quaternionic geometries, we study the generalized planar curves and mappings. We follow, recover, and extend the classical approach as developed by Mikes and Sinyukov. Then we…
Suppose that W is a finite, unitary, reflection group acting on the complex vector space V and X is a subspace of V. Define N to be the setwise stabilizer of X in W, Z to be the pointwise stabilizer, and C=N/Z. Then restriction defines a…
The irreducible representations of full support in the rational Cherednik category $\mathcal{O}_c(W)$ attached to a Coxeter group $W$ are in bijection with the irreducible representations of an associated Iwahori-Hecke algebra. Recent work…
We compute Haar ensemble averages of ratios of random characteristic polynomials for the classical Lie groups K = O(N), SO(N), and USp(N). To that end, we start from the Clifford-Weyl algebera in its canonical realization on the complex of…
Let G be a finite group. For each integral representation $\rho$ of G we consider $\rho-$decomposable principally polarized abelian varieties; that is, principally polarized abelian varieties (X,H) with $\rho(G)-$action, of dimension equal…
In this work, we show that extending the standard description of space-time symmetries from groups of isometries to the more flexible framework of kinematical groupoids allows for the extension of Wigner's program to curved space-times. We…
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.
