We present an application of the program of groupoidification leading up to a sketch of a categorification of the Hecke algebroid --- the category of permutation representations of a finite group. As an immediate consequence, we obtain a…

The relation of the Weierstrass semigroup with several invariants of a curve is studied. For Galois covers of curves with group $G$ we introduce a new filtration of the group decomposition subgroup of $G$. The relation to the ramification…

We extend the methods developed in our earlier work to algorithmically compute the intersection cohomology Betti numbers of reductive varieties. These form a class of highly symmetric varieties that includes equivariant compactifications of…

We survey a number of constructions and open problems related to the handlebody group, with a focus on recent trends in geometric group theory, (co)homological properties, and its relationship to outer automorphism groups of free groups. We…

We describe the exponential map from an infinite-dimensional Lie algebra to an infinite-dimensional group of operators on a Hilbert space. Notions of differential geometry are introduced for these groups. In particular, the Ricci curvature,…

We associate a boundary $\mathcal B_{\pi,u}$ to each covariant representation $(\pi,u,H)$ of $C^*$-dynamical system $(G,A,\alpha)$ and study the action of $G$ on $\mathcal B_{\pi,u}$ and its amenability properties. We relate rigidity…

Actions on hyperbolic metric spaces are an important tool for studying groups, and so it is natural, but difficult, to attempt to classify all such actions of a fixed group. In this paper, we build strong connections between hyperbolic…

These lectures given in Montreal in Summer 1997 are mainly based on, and form a condensed survey of, the book by N. Chriss and V. Ginzburg: `Representation Theory and Complex Geometry', Birkhauser 1997. Various algebras arising naturally in…

Harmonic functions of the three dimensional Lie groups defined on certain manifolds related to the Lie groups themselves and carrying all their unitary representations are explicitly constructed. The realisations of these Lie groups are…

The present paper links the representation theory of Lie groupoids and infinite-dimensional Lie groups. We show that smooth representations of Lie groupoids give rise to smooth representations of associated Lie groups. The groups envisaged…

This is a study of algebras with involution that become isomorphic over a separable closure of the base field to a tensor product of two composition algebras. We classify these algebras, provide criteria for isomorphism and isotopy, and…

An invariant description of Bianchi Homogeneous (B.H.) 3-spaces is presented, by considering the action of the Automorphism Group on the configuration space of the real, symmetric, positive definite, $3\times 3$ matrices. Thus, the gauge…

In this expository paper we present a brief introduction to the geometrical modeling of some quantum computing problems. After a brief introduction to establish the terminology, we focus on quantum information geometry and ZX-calculus,…

We investigate some arithmetic properties of the q-Fibonacci numbers and the q-Pell numbers.

We compute the image of any choice of complex conjugation on the Galois representations associated to regular algebraic cuspidal automorphic representations and to torsion classes in the cohomology of locally symmetric spaces for $GL_n$…

We study Galois representations attached to nonsimple abelian varieties over finitely generated fields of arbitrary characteristic. We give sufficient conditions for such representations to decompose as a product, and apply them to prove…

In this paper we show that the Hamiltonian Monte Carlo method for compact Lie groups constructed in \cite{kennedy88b} using a symplectic structure can be recovered from canonical geometric mechanics with a bi-invariant metric. Hence we…

In this paper, we give a new series of coboundary operators of Hom-Lie algebras. And prove that cohomology groups with respect to coboundary operators are isomorphic. Then, we revisit representations of Hom-Lie algebras, and generalize the…

We survey results about computational complexity of the word problem in groups, Dehn functions of groups and related problems.

We explicitly write down the {\it Eisenstein cycles} in the first homology groups of quotients of the hyperbolic three spaces as linear combinations of Cremona symbols (a generalization of Manin symbols) for imaginary quadratic fields. They…
