We introduce the notions of symmetric and symmetrizable representations of $\text{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$. The linear representations of $\text{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ arising from modular tensor categories are symmetric and have congruence kernel.…

There is a unique finite group that lies inside the 2-dimensional unitary group but not in the special unitary group, and maps by the symmetric square to an irreducible subgroup of the 3-dimensional real special orthogonal group. In an…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $k$ a field of characteristic $p > 0$. Balmer and Gallauer's recent result on finite $p$-permutation resolutions of $kG$-modules motivates the study of an intriguing new invariant; the $p$-permutation…

We study the Witten--Reshetikhin--Turaev SU(2) invariant for the Seifert manifold with 4-singular fibers. We define the Eichler integrals of the modular forms with half-integral weight, and we show that the invariant is rewritten as a sum…

We study generic representations of general linear groups over a finite ring R with coefficients in a field k in which the cardinality of R is invertible, that is functors from finitely-generated projective R-modules to k-vector spaces. We…

We first give a short intrinsic, diagrammatic proof of the First Fundamental Theorem of invariant theory (FFT) for the special orthogonal group $\text{SO}_m(\mathbb{C})$, given the FFT for $\text{O}_m(\mathbb{C})$. We then define, by means…

Two fundamental ways to represent a group are as permutations and as matrices. In this paper, we study linear representations of groups that intertwine with a permutation representation. Recently, D'Alconzo and Di Scala investigated how…

We consider irreducible representations of finite quandles over $\mathbb{C}$. For $Q$ a finite quandle whose inner automorphism group $Inn(Q)$ have trivial Schur multipliers, we prove that the irreducible representations of $Q$ can be…

The essential dimension is a numerical invariant of an algebraic group G which may be thought of as a measure of complexity of G-torsors over fields. A recent theorem of N. Karpenko and A. Merkurjev gives a simple formula for the essential…

We use a unified elementary approach to prove the second part of classical, mixed, super, and mixed super Schur-Weyl dualities for general linear groups and supergroups over an infinite ground field of arbitrary characteristic. These…

We investigate continuity properties of operators obtained as values of the Weyl correspondence constructed by N.V. Pedersen (Invent. Math. 118 (1994), 1--36) for arbitrary irreducible representations of nilpotent Lie groups. To this end we…

We describe the ring of invariants for the finite orthogonal groups in odd dimension and even characteristic acting on the defining representation. We construct a minimal algebra generating set and describe the relations among the…

We characterize all fields of definition for a given coherent sheaf over a projective scheme in terms of projective modules over a finite-dimensional endomorphism algebra. This yields general results on the essential dimension of such…

We extend the Weil representation of infinite-dimensional symplectic group to a representation a certain category of linear relations.

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…

We study the structure of minimal parabolic subgroups of the classical infinite dimensional real simple Lie groups, corresponding to the classical simple direct limit Lie algebras. This depends on the recently developed structure of…

We study the Schur elements and the a-function for cyclotomic Hecke algebras. As a consequence, we show the existence of canonical basic sets, as defined by Geck-Rouquier, for certain complex reflection groups. This includes the case of…

The notion of lacunary infinite numerical sequence is introduced. It is shown that for an arbitrary linear difference operator L with coefficients belonging to the set R of infinite numerical sequences, a criterion (i.e., a necessary and…

It is shown that the space of invariant trilinear forms on smooth representations of a semisimple Lie group is finite dimensional if the group is a product of Lorentz groups.

Polynomial representations of general linear groups and modules over Schur algebras are compared. We work over an arbitrary commutative ring and show that Schur-Weyl duality is the key for an equivalence between both categories.
