In this paper we study representations of skew group algebras $\Lambda G$, where $\Lambda$ is a connected, basic, finite-dimensional algebra (or a locally finite graded algebra) over an algebraically closed field $k$ with characteristic $p…
In this paper, we introduce a notion of ladder representations for split odd special orthogonal groups and symplectic groups over a non-archimedean local field of characteristic zero. This is a natural class in the admissible dual which…
Let S_d be the symmetric group on d letters and let k be a field of characteristic p>2. Tensoring an irreducible S_d module with the sign representation defines an involution on the p-regular partitions of d. It is suprisingly difficult to…
Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>0 and let G be a symplectic or general linear group over k. We consider induced modules for G under the assumption that p is bigger than the greatest hook length in the partitions…
In this article, we investigate symmetric $(v,k,\lambda)$ designs $\mathcal{D}$ with $\lambda$ prime admitting flag-transitive and point-primitive automorphism groups $G$. We prove that if $G$ is an almost simple group with socle a finite…
The modular representation theory of the queer Lie superalgebra q(n) over characteristic p>2 is developed. We obtain a criterion for the irreducibility of baby Verma modules with semisimple p-characters and a criterion for the…
Let $A$ be a simple C*-algebra of stable rank one and let $p$ and $q$ be two $\sigma$-compact open projections. It is proved that there is a continuous path of unitaries in ${\tilde A}$ which connects open sub-projections of $p$ which is…
For $ k \in \mathbb{N}$ we introduce an idempotent subalgebra, the spherical partition algebra ${\mathcal{SP} }_{k}$, of the partition algebra ${\mathcal{P} }_{k}$, that we define using an embedding associated with the trivial…
The aim of this paper is to explain how to get a complex of smooth representations out of the dual vector space to a smooth representation of a p-adic Lie group, in natural characteristic. The construction does not depend on any…
We introduce a path-theoretic framework for understanding the representation theory of (quantum) symmetric and general linear groups and their higher level generalisations over fields of arbitrary characteristic. Our first main result is a…
The paper introduces the notion of a representation $k$-graph $(\Delta,\alpha)$ for a given $k$-graph $\Lambda$. It is shown that any representation $k$-graph for $\Lambda$ yields a module for the Kumjian-Pask algebra $KP(\Lambda)$, and the…
Let $\Lambda$ be an artin algebra and let $\mathcal{P}^{<\infty}_\Lambda$ the category of finitely generated right $\Lambda$-modules of finite projective dimension. We show that $\mathcal{P}^{<\infty}_\Lambda$ is contravariantly finite in…
Let V be a symplectic vector space of dimension 2n. Given a partition \lambda with at most n parts, there is an associated irreducible representation S_{[\lambda]}(V) of Sp(V). This representation admits a resolution by a natural complex…
Let $X$ be a finitely generated left module over a left artinian ring $R$, and let $p(X)=\{l_i\}$ be the infinite sequence of nonnegative integers where $l_i$ is the length of the $i$-th term of the minimal projective resolution of $X$. We…
Slicing a module into semisimple ones is useful to study modules. Loewy structures provide a means of doing so. To establish the Loewy structures of projective modules over a finite dimensional symmetric algebra over a field $F$, the…
For any finite group $G$ and any prime $p$ one can ask which ordinary irreducible representations remain irreducible in characteristic $p$. We answer this question for $p=2$ when $G$ is a proper double cover of the symmetric group. Our…
In previous work (Coulembier--Flake 2024), the authors conjectured that the tensor product of an arbitrary finite-dimensional modular representation of an elementary abelian $p$-group with the biggest non-projective restricted Steinberg…
We define, for each subset $S$ of the set $\mathcal{P}$ of primes, an $S_n$-module $Lie_n^S$ with interesting properties. $Lie_n^\emptyset$ is the well-known representation $Lie_n$ of $S_n$ afforded by the free Lie algebra, while…
We describe the semisimplification of the monoidal category of tilting modules for the algebraic group GL_n in characteristic p > 0. In particular, we compute the dimensions of the indecomposable tilting modules modulo p.
For non-compact, locally symmetric moduli spaces M, the set of geodesics and the geometry of the boundary can be completely characterised using group theory. In particular, geodesics that asymptote to a given infinite distance boundary…
