We study the multiplicities of semisimple split characters in tensor product of semisimple split characters of $GL_n(\mathbb{F}_q)$. We prove that these multiplicities are polynomial in q with non-negative integer coefficients and we obtain…

We decompose the tensor product of two irreducible representations of $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbb{F}_q)$ for odd $q$ and classify the pairs such that their tensor product is multiplicity free. We also classify the pairs such that their tensor…

We know from Letellier that if for some triple of partitions the corresponding Kronecker coefficient is non-zero then the corresponding multiplicities for unipotent characters of GL(n,q) is also non-zero. A conjecture of Saxl says that the…

The standard supercharacter theory of the finite unipotent upper-triangular matrices $U_n(q)$ gives rise to a beautiful combinatorics based on set partitions. As with the representation theory of the symmetric group, embeddings of…

We study finite-dimensional representations of quantum affine algebras using q-characters. We prove the conjectures from math.QA/9810055 and derive some of their corollaries. In particular, we prove that the tensor product of fundamental…

Let $G(q)$ be a Chevalley group over a finite field $F_q$. By Lusztig's and Shoji's work, the problem of computing the values of the unipotent characters of $G(q)$ is solved, in principle, by the theory of character sheaves; one issue in…

Let G_1,...,G_q be algebraic varieties over a finite field k. We show that, if q >1, the finiteness of the tensor product of G_1, ...,G_q as Mackey functors. We apply this to prove the finiteness of a relative Chow group and an abelian…

Let G be a connected unipotent group over a finite field F_q with q elements. In this article we propose a definition of L-packets of complex irreducible representations of the finite group G(F_q) and give an explicit description of…

An irreducible ordinary character of a finite reductive group is called quadratic unipotent if it corresponds under Jordan decomposition to a semisimple element $s$ in a dual group such that $s^2=1$. We prove that there is a bijection…

We establish several results concerning tensor products, q-characters, and the block decomposition of the category of finite-dimensional representations of quantum affine algebras in the root of unity setting. In the generic case, a Weyl…

We show the existence of and explicitly construct generic polynomials for various groups, over fields of positive characteristic. The methods we develop apply to a broad class of connected linear algebraic groups defined over finite fields…

Let q be a power of a prime and n a positive integer. Let P(q) be a parabolic subgroup of the finite general linear group GL(n,q). We show that the number of P(q)-conjugacy classes in GL(n,q) is, as a function of q, a polynomial in q with…

Let GL(n,q) be the group of nxn invertible matrices over a field with q elements, and SL(n,q) be the group of nxn matrices with determinant 1 over a field with q elements. We prove that the product of any two non-central conjugacy classes…
