For $G=GL(n,\mathbb{C})$ and a parabolic subgroup $P=LN$ with a two-block Levi subgroup $L=GL(n_1)\times GL(n_2)$, the space $G\cdot (\mathcal{\mathcal{O}}+\mathfrak{n})$, where $\mathcal{O}$ is a nilpotent orbit of $\mathfrak{l}$, is a…

For a non-compact simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ over $\mathbb{R}$, we denote by $\mathcal{O}^{\mathbb{C}}_{\min,\mathfrak{g}}$ the unique complex nilpotent orbit in $\mathfrak{g} \otimes_\mathbb{R} \mathbb{C}$ containing all minimal…

We show the Teichm\"uller space of a non-orientable surface with marked points (considered as a Klein surface) can be identified with a subspace of the Teichm\"uller space of its orientable double cover. Also, it is well known that the…

Riemannian geodesic orbit spaces (G/H,g) are natural generalizations of symmetric spaces, defined by the property that their geodesics are orbits of one-parameter subgroups of G. We study the geodesic orbit spaces of the form (G/S,g), where…

We investigate orthogonal representations of compact Lie groups from the point of view of their quotient spaces, considered as metric spaces. We study metric spaces which are simultaneously quotients of different representations and…

For a pair of real reductive groups $G'\subset G$ we consider the space ${\rm Hom}_{G'}(\pi|_{G'},\tau)$ of intertwining operators between spherical principal series representations $\pi$ of $G$ and $\tau$ of $G'$, also called…

Let G be a group such that its finite subgroups have bounded order, let d denote the lowest common multiple of the orders of the finite subgroups of G, and let K be a subfield of C that is closed under complex conjugation. Let U(G) denote…

We wish to understand how irreducible representations of a group G behave when restricted to a subgroup G' (the branching problem). Our primary concern is with representations of reductive Lie groups, which involve both algebraic and…

We construct a local deformation problem for residual Galois representations $\bar{\rho}$ valued in an arbitrary reductive group $\hat{G}$ which we use to develop a variant of the Taylor-Wiles method. Our generalization allows Taylor-Wiles…

We introduce the principal representation category $\mathscr{O}({\bf G})$ of reductive algebraic groups with Frobenius maps and put forward a conjecture that this category is a highest weight category. When $\Bbbk$ is complex field…

Let $G_{\mathbb R}$ be the set of real points of a complex linear reductive group and $\hat G_\lambda$ its classes of irreducible admissible representations with infinitesimal integral regular character $\lambda$. In this case each cell of…

Let G be a connected and reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. An interesting class of representations of G consists of those G-modules having a good filtration -- i.e. a filtration whose…

The main result describes the Brauer-Nesbitt reduction of unipotent representations of a finite group of Lie type, expressing it as an explicit linear combination of the restriction of Weyl modules from the algebraic group to the group of…

Let $Q$ be an algebraic group with $q=\Lie Q$ and $V$ a $Q$-module. The index of $V$ is the minimal codimension of the $Q$-orbits in the dual space $V^*$. There is a general inequality, due to Vinberg, relating the index of $V$ and the…

A classical result in differential geometry states that for a free and proper Lie group action, the quotient map to the orbit space induces an isomorphism between the de Rham complex of differential forms on the orbit space and the basic…

For a representation of a connected compact Lie group G in a finite dimensional real vector space U and a subspace V of U, invariant under a maximal torus of G, we obtain a sufficient condition for V to meet all G-orbits in U, which is also…

We call a hamiltonian N-space \emph{primary} if its moment map is onto a single coadjoint orbit. The question has long been open whether such spaces always split as (homogeneous) x (trivial), as an analogy with representation theory might…

In this paper we study the geometry of graph spaces endowed with a special class of graph edit distances. The focus is on geometrical results useful for statistical pattern recognition. The main result is the Graph Representation Theorem.…

Let $G$ be a flat finite-type group scheme over a scheme $S$, and $X$ a noetherian $S$-scheme on which $G$-acts. We define and study $G$-prime and $G$-primary $G$-ideals on $X$ and study their basic properties. In particular, we prove the…
