We give formulae relating the value of an irreducible character of a classical group at a matrix to entries of powers of the matrix. This yields a far-reaching generalization of a result of J. L. Cisneros-Molina concerning the $GL_2$ case.

We obtain two explicit formulas for the full local character expansion of any irreducible representation of a p-adic general linear group in principal blocks. The first, generalizing previous work of the author on the Iwahori-spherical…

In this paper we consider symmetric powers representation and exterior powers representation of finite groups, which generated by the representation which has finite dimension over the complex field. We calculate the multiplicity of…

The classification of irreducible, spherical characters of the infinite-dimensional unitary/orthogonal/symplectic groups can be obtained by finding all possible limits of normalized, irreducible characters of the corresponding…

We derive an expression for the mutual gravitational force and torque of two bodies having arbitrary shapes and mass distributions, as an expansion in power series of their products of inertia and of the relative coordinates of their…

Frobenius observed that the number of times an element of a finite group is obtained as a commutator is given by a specific combination of the irreducible characters of the group. More generally, for any word w the number of times an…

We describe a generalization of the concept of a pc presentation that applies to groups with a nontrivial solvable radical. Such a representation can be much more efficient in terms of memory use and even of arithmetic, than permuattion and…

The irreducible characters of the symmetric group are a symmetric polynomial in the eigenvalues of a permutation matrix. They can therefore be realized as a symmetric function that can be evaluated at a set of variables and form a basis of…

Though the irreducible representations of the Poincare' group form the groundwork for the formulation of relativistic quantum theories of a particle, robust classes of such representations are missed in current formulations of these…

In this review, we have reached from the most basic definitions in the theory of groups, group structures, etc. to representation theory and irreducible representations of the Poincar'e group. Also, we tried to get a more comprehensible…

We calculate extensions between certain irreducible admissible representations of p-adic groups.

In this paper we study the Frobenius characters of the invariant subspaces of the tensor powers of a representation V. The main result is a formula for these characters for a polynomial functor of V involving the characters for V. The main…

This paper contains an exposition of the theory of character sheaves for reductive groups and some attempts to extend it to other cases: unipotent groups, reductive groups modulo the unipotent radical of a parabolic.

Let $p$ be a prime. For $p=2$, the fields of values of the complex irreducible characters of finite groups whose degrees are not divisible by $p$ have been classified; for odd primes $p$, a conjectural classification has been proposed. In…

Character expansions are among the most important approaches to modern quantum field theory, which substitute integrals by combinations of peculiar special functions from the Schur-Macdonald family. These formulas allow various…

In math.CO/0109093 the author obtained a formula for the value of an irreducible symmetric group character indexed by a partition of rectangular shape. In the present paper this formula is (conjecturally) generalized to arbitrary shapes.

How to study a nice function on the real line? The physically motivated Fourier theory technique of harmonic analysis is to expand the function in the basis of exponentials and study the meaningful terms in the expansion. Now, suppose the…

In the paper, a method of describing the outer derivations of the group algebra of a finitely presentable group is given. The description of derivations is given in terms of characters of the groupoid of the adjoint action of the group.

We introduced a new continued fraction expansions in our previous paper. For these expansions, we show formulae of probability about incomplete quotients. Furthermore, we prove the existence of invariant measures with respect to the…

In this article, I introduce a group-theoretical method to prove positivity of certain linear combinations (with coefficients generally lying in $\mathbb{C}$) of exponential functions under a set of semidefinite linear constraints. The…
