We extend the analytic theory of Frobenius manifolds to semisimple points with coalescing eigenvalues of the operator of multiplication by the Euler vector field. We clarify which freedoms, ambiguities and mutual constraints are allowed in…
Let H be a reductive subgroup of a reductive group G over an algebraically closed field k. We consider the action of H on G^n, the n-fold Cartesian product of G with itself, by simultaneous conjugation. We give a purely algebraic…
Let $G$ be a semisimple Lie group acting on a space $X$, let $\mu$ be a compactly supported measure on $G$, and let $A$ be a strongly irreducible linear cocycle over the action of $G$. We then have a random walk on $X$, and let $T$ be the…
Let $V$ be an $n$-dimensional left vector space over a division ring $R$ and $n\ge 3$. Denote by ${\mathcal G}_{k}$ the Grassmann space of $k$-dimensional subspaces of $V$ and put ${\mathfrak G}_{k}$ for the set of all pairs $(S,U)\in…
An element $g$ in a group $G$ is called reversible (or real) if it is conjugate to $g^{-1}$ in $G$, i.e., there exists $h$ in $G$ such that $g^{-1}=hgh^{-1}$. The element $g$ is called strongly reversible if the conjugating element $h$ is…
This paper deals with sufficiency conditions for irreducibility of certain induced modules. We also construct irreducible representations for a group $G$ over a field ${\mathbb K}$ where the group $G$ is a semidirect product of a normal…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$. Given an indecomposable G-module $M$, one can ask when it remains indecomposable upon restriction to the Frobenius kernel $G_r$, and when its…
Let $\mathbf{F}$ be a real extension of $\mathbb{Q}$, $G$ a finite group and $\mathbf{F}G$ its group algebra. Given both a group homomorphism $\sigma:G\rightarrow \{\pm1\}$ (called an orientation) and a group involution $^\ast:G \rightarrow…
This is the second in a series of papers developing a theory of total positivity for loop groups. In this paper, we study infinite products of Chevalley generators. We show that the combinatorics of infinite reduced words underlies the…
We study relative integral functors for singular schemes and characterise those which preserve boundness and those which have integral right adjoints. We prove that a relative integral functor is an equivalence if and only if its…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $\Gamma$ a commutative monoid of finite type. We study algebraic properties of modules and derivations over the associated ring $\mathcal F(\Gamma,R)$ of Dirichlet convolutions. If $\Gamma$ is cancellative…
We define a theory of Goodwillie calculus for enriched functors from finite pointed simplicial G-sets to symmetric G-spectra, where G is a finite group. We extend a notion of G-linearity suggested by Blumberg to define stably excisive and…
For a compact simply connected simple Lie group $G$ with an involution $\alpha$, we compute the $G\rtimes \Z/2$-equivariant K-theory of $G$ where $G$ acts by conjugation and $\Z/2$ acts either by $\alpha$ or by $g\mapsto \alpha(g)^{-1}$. We…
Suppose that R is an ordered ring, G_n(R) is a subsemigroup of $GL_n(R)$, consisting of all matrices with nonnegative elements. A.V. Mikhalev and M.A. Shatalova described all automorphisms of G_n(R), where R is a linearly ordered skewfield…
Let $G$ be a finite permutation group of degree $n$ and let ${\rm ifix}(G)$ be the involution fixity of $G$, which is the maximum number of fixed points of an involution. In this paper we study the involution fixity of almost simple…
In this paper we prove that every automorphism of a Chevalley group (or its elementary subgroup) with root system of rank >1 over a commutative ring (with 1/2 for the systems A_2, F_4, B_l, C_l; with 1/2 and 1/3 for the system G_2) is…
We generalize Chevalley's theorem about restriction of \mathfrak{g}-invariant polynomial functions \mathfrak{g}->C to W-invariant functions on the Cartan \mathfrak{h}->C. We consider the case when \mathfrak{g} is replaced by a quantum group…
The current article continues a series of papers on decomposition of unipotents and its applications. Let $G(\Phi,R)$ be a Chevalley group with a reduced irreducible root system $\Phi$ over a commutative ring $R$. Fix $h\in G(\Phi,R)$. Call…
We prove for residually finite groups the following long standing conjecture: the number of twisted conjugacy classes of an automorphism of a finitely generated group is equal (if it is finite) to the number of finite dimensional…
Let G be a connected reductive group (over $\mathbb{C}$) and H a connected semisimple subgroup. The dimension data of H (realative to its given embedding in G) is the collection of the numbers $\{{\rm dim} V^{H}\}$, where V runs over all…
