We prove pairwise disjointness of representations T_{z,w} of the infinite-dimensional unitary group. These representations provide a natural generalization of the regular representation for the case of "big" group U(\infty). They were…
We introduce unitary representations of continuous groupoids on continuous fields of Hilbert spaces. We investigate some properties of these objects and discuss some of the standard constructions from representation theory in this…
The goal of this paper is to remove the irreducibility hypothesis in a theorem of Richard Taylor describing the image of complex conjugations by $p$-adic Galois representations associated with regular, algebraic, essentially self-dual,…
We prove an algebraic decomposition theorem for the unit group $\mathrm{GL}(R)$ of an arbitrary non-discrete irreducible, continuous ring $R$ (in von Neumann's sense), which entails that every element of $\mathrm{GL}(R)$ is both a product…
We prove that all finitely generated fully residually free groups (limit groups) have a sequence of finite dimensional unitary representations that `strongly converge' to the regular representation of the group. The corresponding statement…
We give a survey of several models of irreducible complementary series representations and their limits, special representations, for the groups SU(n,1) and SO(n,1), including new ones. These groups, whose geometrical meaning is well known,…
We show that all groups of a distinguished class of \guillemotleft large\guillemotright\ topological groups, that of Roelcke precompact Polish groups, have Kazhdan's Property (T). This answers a question of Tsankov and generalizes previous…
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.
This article is devoted to the investigation of semidirect products of groups of loops and groups of diffeomorphisms of finite and infinte dimensional real, complex and quaternion manifolds. Necessary statements about quaternion manifolds…
We prove that every group can be realized as the homeomorphism group and as the group of (pointed) homotopy classes of (pointed) self-homotopy equivalences of infinitely many non-homotopy-equivalent Alexandroff spaces.
This is an expository book on unitary representations of topological groups, and of several dual spaces, which are spaces of such representations up to some equivalence. The most important notions are defined for topological groups, but a…
Let G be a locally compact group, and let U be its unitary representation on a Hilbert space H. Endow the space L(H) of linear bounded operators on H with weak operator topology. We prove that if U is a measurable map from G to L(H) then it…
In this work, we establish a relationship between the sum of irreducible character degrees and the number of twisted involutions associated with the automorphisms of a finite group. We develop algorithmic frameworks for evaluating these…
Let F be a totally real number field, n a prime integer, and G a unitary group of rank n defined over F that is compact at every infinite place. We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of cuspidal automorphic representations of G…
We study the complex irreducible representations of special linear, symplectic, orthogonal and unitary groups over principal ideal local rings of length two. We construct a canonical correspondence between the irreducible representations of…
We prove a criterion for the irreducibility of an integral group representation \rho over the fraction field of a noetherian domain R in terms of suitably defined reductions of \rho at prime ideals of R. As applications, we give…
We prove that if $G$ is a finite irreducible solvable subgroup of an orthogonal group $O(V,Q)$ with $\dim V$ odd, then $G$ preserves an orthogonal decomposition of $V$ into $1$-spaces. In particular $G$ is monomial. This generalizes a…
We show that an accessible group with infinitely many ends has property $R_{\infty}$. That is, it has infinitely many twisted conjugacy classes for any twisting automorphism. We deduce that having property $R_{\infty}$ is undecidable…
We show that C*-algebras generated by irreducible representations of finitely generated nilpotent groups satisfy the universal coefficient theorem of Rosenberg and Schochet. This result combines with previous work to show that these…
Let $G=GL_{n}(\mathbb{C})$ and $1\ne\psi:\mathbb{C}\to\mathbb{C}^{\times}$ be an additive character. Let $U$ be the subgroup of upper triangular unipotent matrices in $G$. Denote by $\theta$ the character $\theta:U\to\mathbb{C}$ given by \[…
