A fundamental problem from invariant theory is to describe the endomorphism algebra of multilinear functions on a representation V invariant under the action of a group G. According to Weyl's classic, a first main (later: fundamental)…

For any set representation (permutation representation) of the symmetric group $S_n$, we give combinatorial interpretation for coefficients of its Frobenius character expanded in the basis of monomial symmetric functions.

We reconsider an old problem, namely the dimension of the $G$-invariant subspace in $V^{\otimes p} \otimes V^{*\otimes q}$, where $G$ is one of the classical groups ${\rm GL}(V)$, ${\rm SL}(V)$, ${\rm O}(V)$, ${\rm SO}(V)$, or ${\rm…

Let $V$ be a finite rank vector space over a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$, and let $G$ be a finite subgroup of $\operatorname{GL}(V)$. If $V$ is a permutation representation of $G$, or more generally a monomial representation, we…

We initiate the systematic study of modular representations of symmetric groups that arise via the braiding in (symmetric) tensor categories over fields of positive characteristic. We determine what representations appear for certain…

The Frobenius-Perron theory of an endofunctor of a category was introduced in recent years [12, 13]. We apply this theory to monoidal (or tensor) triangulated structures of quiver representations.

Let $G$ be a complex classical group, and let $V$ be its defining representation (possibly plus a copy of the dual). A foundational problem in classical invariant theory is to write down generators and relations for the ring of…

By generalizing Frobenius' polynomial method to good partition algebra, we will develop new character theories for a finite group $G$. A uniform defining equations are derived for these kinds of character theories. The new character…

$O(N)$ invariants are the observables of real tensor models. We use regular colored graphs to represent these invariants, the valence of the vertices of the graphs relates to the tensor rank. We enumerate $O(N)$ invariants as $d$-regular…

Invariant theory is concerned with functions that do not change under the action of a given group. Here we communicate an approach based on tensor networks to represent polynomial local unitary invariants of quantum states. This graphical…

We introduce the notion of a diagram category and discuss its application to the invariant theory of classical groups and super groups, with some indications concerning extensions to quantum groups and quantum super groups. Tensor functors…

Lewis, Reiner, and Stanton conjectured a Hilbert seriesfor a space of invariants under an action of finite general linear groups using $(q,t)$-binomial coefficients. This work gives an analog in positive characteristic of theorems relating…

We determine the group of linear transformations on a vector space $V$ that preserve a polynomial function $f$ on $V$ for several interesting pairs $(V,f)$, using the theory of semisimple algebraic groups.

We generalize the character formulas for multiplicities of irreducible constituents from group theory to semigroup theory using Rota's theory of M\"obius inversion. The technique works for a large class of semigroups including: inverse…

An important problem from invariant theory is to describe the subspace of a tensor power of a representation invariant under the action of the group. According to Weyl's classic, the first main (later: 'fundamental') theorem of invariant…

Let V be a complex vector space with basis {x_1,x_2,...,x_n} and G be a finite subgroup of GL(V). The tensor algebra T(V) over the complex is isomorphic to the polynomials in the non-commutative variables x_1, x_2,..., x_n with complex…

Let K be the product O(n_1) x O(n_2) x ... x O(n_r) of orthogonal groups. Let V the r-fold tensor product of defining representations of each orthogonal factor. We compute a stable formula for the dimension of the K-invariant algebra of…

In this paper, we describe a class of elements in the ring of $\mathrm{SL}(V)$-invariant polynomial functions on the space of configurations of vectors and linear forms of a 3-dimensional vector space $V.$ These elements are related to one…

For a root system R, a field K and a "choice of coefficients in K" we define a category of graded spaces with operators and study some of its properties. Then we assume that the coefficients are given by quantum binomials. We use basic…

In this work, we generalize the notion of character for 2-representations of finite 2-groups. The properties of 2-characters bear strong similarities to those classical characters of finite groups, including conjugation invariance,…
