We consider quiver representations respecting a quiver automorphism and show that the dimension vectors of the indecomposables are precisely the positive roots of an associated symmetrisable Kac-Moody Lie algebra. Moreover, every such Lie…

The main problem this thesis deals with is the characterization of profinite groups which are realizable as absolute Galois groups of fields: this is currently one of the major problems in Galois theory. Usually one reduces the problem to…

We show Lie algebra versions of some results on homological finiteness properties of subdirect products of groups, including a version of the 1-2-3 Theorem.

We prove that for every finitely generated subgroup of a virtually connected Lie group which admits a finite dimensional model for the classifying space for proper actions the assembly map in algebraic K-theory is split injective. We also…

The cuspidal cohomology groups of arithmetic groups in certain infinite dimensional Modules are computed. As a result we get a simultaneous generalization of the Patterson-Conjecture and the Lewis-Correspondence.

We construct and study various dual pairs between finite dimensional classical Lie groups and infinite dimensional Lie algebras in some Fock representations. The infinite dimensional Lie algebras here can be either a completed infinite rank…

We consider a specific class of infinite dimensional $p$-adic Lie groups, i.e., a sort of diffeomorphism groups on $p$-adic ball $\operatorname{Diff}^{\operatorname{an}}(B_\epsilon)$. It turns out that this group has a natural logarithmic…

One of the most beautiful results in the integral representation theory of finite groups is a theorem of A. Weiss that detects a permutation $R$-lattice for the finite $p$-group $G$ in terms of the restriction to a normal subgroup $N$ and…

We introduce the theory of local minimal models for Kan simplicial manifolds, which provide the appropriate generalization of minimal Kan simplicial sets to geometric contexts. We use this to obtain the first proof of Lie's third theorem…

We show that finite-dimensional Lie algebras over a field of characteristic zero such that their high-degree cohomology in any finite-dimensional non-trivial irreducible module vanishes, are, essentially, direct sums of semisimple and…

We initiate the representation theory of restricted Lie superalgebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>2. A superalgebra generalization of the celebrated Kac-Weisfeiler Conjecture is formulated, which exhibits a…

The class of elementary totally disconnected groups is the smallest class of totally disconnected, locally compact, second countable groups which contains all discrete countable groups, all metrizable pro-finite groups, and is closed under…

Let G be a subgroup of GL(V), where V is a finite dimensional vector space over a finite field of characteristic p >0. If det(g-1) = 0 for all g \in G then we call G a fixed-point subgroup of GL(V). Motivated in parallel by questions in…

We describe the construction which takes as input a profinite group, which when applied the the absolute Galois group of a geometric field F agrees in some cases with the algebraic K-theory of F. We prove that it agrees in the case of a…

Let $p$ be a fixed prime number, and $F$ a global function field of characteristic not equal to $p$. In this paper, we shall study the growth of the Sylow $p$-subgroups of the even $K$-groups in a $p$-adic Lie extension of $F$, where the…

Let $G$ be a reductive $p$-adic group. We prove that all supercuspidal representations of $G$ arise through Yu's construction subject to certain hypotheses on $k$ (depending on $G$). As a corollary, under the same hypotheses, we see that…

We study finite-dimensional representations of hyper loop algebras, i.e., the hyperalgebras over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic associated to the loop algebra over a complex finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra.…

We study the Newman--Unti (NU) group from the viewpoint of infinite-dimensional geometry. The NU group is a topological group in a natural coarse topology, but it does not become a manifold and hence a Lie group in this topology. To obtain…

Kac--Moody groups $G$ over $\mathbb{R}$ have been conjectured to occur as symmetry groups of supergravity theories dimensionally reduced to dimensions less than 3, and their integral forms $G(\mathbb{Z})$ conjecturally encode quantized…

This survey paper concerns mainly with some asymptotic topological properties of finitely presented discrete groups: quasi-simple filtration (QSF), geometric simple connectivity (GSC), topological inverse-representations, and the notion of…
