We construct a complex linear Weil representation $\rho$ of the generalized special linear group $G={\rm SL}_*^{1}(2,A_n)$ ($A_n=K[x]/\langle x^n\rangle$, $K$ the quadratic extension of the finite field $k$ of $q$ elements, $q$ odd), where…
In this article we construct Weil representations of quasi-split unitary groups $U(n,n)(\mathbb{F}_{q^2}/\mathbb{F}_q)$ associated to quadratic extensions of finite fields. We define these representations by using an adequate presentation…
The Weil representation is used to construct a minimal type of the two-fold central extension of $\operatorname{Sp}_{2n}(\mathbb{Q}_2)$. The corresponding Hecke algebra is shown to be isomorphic to the classical affine Hecke algebra of the…
We develop a simple algebraic approach to the study of the Weil representation associated to a finite abelian group. As a result, we obtain a simple proof of a generalisation of a well-known formula for the absolute value of its character.…
We prove that if $G$ is a finite simple group, then all irreducible complex representations of $G$ by be realized over the real numbers if and only if every element of $G$ may be written as a product of two involutions in $G$. This follows…
To a finite quadratic module, that is, a finite abelian group D together with a non-singular quadratic form Q:D --> Q/Z, it is possible to associate a representation of either the modular group, SL(2,Z), or its metaplectic cover, Mp(2,Z),…
The Weil representation of the symplectic group associated to a finite abelian group of odd order is shown to have a multiplicity-free decomposition. When the abelian group is p-primary, the irreducible representations occurring in the Weil…
The construction approach proposed in the previous paper Ref. 1 allows us there and in the present paper to construct at generic deformation parameter $q$ all finite--dimensional representations of the quantum Lie superalgebra…
In the present paper we construct all typical finite-dimensional representations of the quantum Lie superalgebra $U_{q}[gl(2/2)]$ at generic deformation parameter $q$. As in the non-deformed case the finite-dimensional…
We find the irreducible decomposition of the Weil representation of the unitary group $\mathrm{U}_{2n}(A)$, where $A$ is a ramified quadratic extension of a finite, commutative, local, principal ideal ring $R$ and the nilpotency degree of…
We construct, by contraction of a suitable complex vector bundle, the Weil representation of the finite symplectic group $Sp(A)$. We give an explicit description of the space of all lagrangian subspaces, which we use to compute the cocycle…
We study the mod $\ell$ Weil representation of a finite unitary group and related Deligne--Lusztig inductions. In particular, we study their decomposition as representations of a symplectic group, and give a construction of a mod $\ell$…
We introduce a generalized version of a q-Schur algebra (of parabolic type) for arbitrary Hecke algebras over extended Weyl groups. We describe how the decomposition matrix of a finite group with split BN-pair, with respect to a…
In this note we present the Stiefel-Whitney classes (SWCs) for orthogonal representations of several finite groups of Lie type, namely for $G=\text{SL}(2,q),$ $\text{SL}(3,q),$ $\text{Sp}(4,q)$, and $\text{Sp}(6,q)$, with $q$ odd. We also…
Let $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ be a finite field of characteristic $p$ and let $W_{2}(\mathbb{F}_{q})$ be the ring of Witt vectors of length two over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$. We prove that for any integer $n$ such that $p$ divides $n$, the groups…
In this paper we obtain a decomposition formula of the uniform projection of the Weil character of a finite reductive dual pair consisting of a symplectic group and an even orthogonal group. This is the first and major step to give an…
The two-parametric quantum superalgebra $U_{pq}[gl(2/2)]$ and its representations are considered. All finite-dimensional irreducible representations of this quantum superalgebra can be constructed and classified into typical and nontypical…
Let $B$ be a ring, not necessarily commutative, having an involution $*$ and let ${\mathrm U}_{2m}(B)$ be the unitary group of rank $2m$ associated to a hermitian or skew hermitian form relative to $*$. When $B$ is finite, we construct a…
We present here an elementary geometric approach to the construction of Weil representations of the star-analogues $SL_\ast(2,A), A$ a ring or algebra with involution $\ast$, of the group SL(2, k), k a field, reminiscent of the quantum…
The complete classification of the finite simple groups that are $(2,3)$-generated is a problem which is still open only for orthogonal groups. Here, we construct $(2, 3)$-generators for the finite odd-dimensional orthogonal groups…
