We characterize those regular, holomorphic or formal maps into the orbit space $V/G$ of a complex representation of a finite group $G$ which admit a regular, holomorphic or formal lift to the representation space $V$. In particular, the…

We study deformation theory of mod $p$ Galois representations of $p$-adic fields with values in generalised tori, such as $L$-groups of (possibly non-split) tori. We show that the corresponding deformation rings are formally smooth over a…

For a smooth group scheme $G$ over an extension of $\mathbf{Z}_p$ such that the generic fiber of $G$ is reductive, we study the generic fiber of the Galois deformation ring for a $G$-valued mod $p$ representation of the absolute Galois…

In this paper we expand on previous results, studying the extent to which one can detect fusion in certain finite groups $\Gamma$, from information about the universal deformation rings of absolutely irreducible…

A virtual endomorphism of a group G is a homomorphism f from H into G where H is a subgroup of G of finite index m. The triple (G,H,f) produces a state-closed (or, self-similar) representation t of G on the 1-rooted m-ary tree. This paper…

We prove that the irreducible decomposition of the permutation representation of GL(n,q) on GL(n,q)/GL(n-m,q) stabilizes for large n. We deduce, as a consequence, a representation stability theorem for finitely generated VIC-modules.

An isomorphism between the group ring of a finite group and a ring of certain block diagonal matrices is established. The group ring $RG$ of a finite group $G$ is isomorphic to the set of {\em group ring matrices} over $R$. It is shown that…
