We consider the energy representation for the gauge group. The gauge group is the set of (C^{\infty})-mappings from a compact Riemannian manifold to a semi-simple compact Lie group. In this paper, we obtain irreducibility of the energy…

Let $d$ be a positive integer. We study the proportion of irreducible characters of infinite families of irreducible Coxeter groups whose values evaluated on a fixed element $g$ are divisible by $d$. For Coxeter groups of types $A_n, B_n$…

Suppose a finite group acts on a scheme X and a finite-dimensional Lie algebra g. The corresponding equivariant map algebra is the Lie algebra M of equivariant regular maps from X to g. We classify the irreducible finite-dimensional…

Let G be a finite group of nilpotency class 2 and w a group word. In this short paper we show that the probability that a random n-tuple of elements from G satisfies w is at least one over the order of G. This answers a special case of a…

Given a group $G$, we write $g^G$ for the conjugacy class of $G$ containing the element $g$. A theorem of B. H. Neumann states that if $G$ is a group in which all conjugacy classes are finite with bounded size, then the commutator subgroup…

Let $L/K$ be a Galois extension of number fields and let $G=\mathrm{Gal}(L/K)$. We show that under certain hypotheses on $G$, for a fixed prime number $p$, Leopoldt's conjecture at $p$ for certain proper intermediate fields of $L/K$ implies…

Using Calegari's result on the Fontaine-Mazur conjecture, we study the irreducibility of pure, regular, rank 3 weakly compatible systems of self-dual l-adic representations. As a consequence, we prove that the Tate conjecture holds for a…

We investigate the homogeneous $2$-local representations of the twin group $T_n$ for all integers $n\geqslant 2$. A complete classification is obtained, yielding three distinct families of representations. We show that each of these…

In this paper we extend a result for representations of the Additive group $G_a$ given in [3] to the Heisenberg group $H_1$. Namely, if $p$ is greater than 2d then all $d$-dimensional characteristic $p$ representations for $H_1$ can be…

Let $G$ be a group acting properly and essentially on an irreducible, non-Euclidean finite dimensional CAT(0) cube complex $X$ without fixed points at infinity. We show that for any finite collection of simultaneously inessential subgroups…

When $G$ is a real reductive group and $G_0$ is its Cartan motion group, the Mackey-Higson bijection is a natural one-to-one correspondence between all irreducible tempered representations of $G$ and all irreducible unitary representations…

We prove that if all the simple groups involved in a finite group $G$ satisfy the `inductive Feit condition', then Walter Feit's conjecture from 1980 holds for $G$. In particular, this would solve Brauer's Problem 41 from 1963 in the…

The SU(2) TQFT representation of the mapping class group of a closed surface of genus g, at a root of unity of prime order, is shown to be irreducible. Some examples of reducible representations are also given.

We show that there exists a positive number $M_0$ such that for any odd $M\geq M_0$ a random group of exponent $M$ with overwhelming probability is infinite in the few relator model and in the density $d$ model for small $d$.

In this paper we suppose G is a finite group acting tamely on a regular projective curve X over Z and V is an orthogonal representation of G of dimension 0 and trivial determinant. Our main result determines the sign of the…

Let G be a simple, simply-connected algebraic group over the complex numbers with Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$. The main result of this article is a proof that each irreducible representation of the fundamental group of the orbit O through a…

Let $G_1,\dots,G_m$ be independent copies of the standard gaussian random vector in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We show that there is an absolute constant $c$ such that for any $A \subset S^{d-1}$, with probability at least $1-2\exp(-c\Delta m)$, for…

Let $\mathcal M$ be a factor von Neumann algebra with separable predual and let $T\in \mathcal M$. We call $T$ an irreducible operator (relative to $\mathcal M$) if $W^*(T)$ is an irreducible subfactor of $\mathcal M$, i.e., $W^*(T)'\cap…
