For $G$ a connected, reductive group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of large characteristic, we use the canonical Springer isomorphism between the nilpotent variety of $\mathfrak{g}:=\mathrm{Lie}(G)$ and the unipotent variety of $G$…
We study deformations of orbit closures for the action of a connected semisimple group $G$ on its Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, especially when $G$ is the special linear group. The tools we use are on the one hand the invariant Hilbert scheme…
We show that a decomposition of a complex Lie group $G$ into a semidirect product generates that of the algebra of analytic functional, ${\mathscr A}(G)$, into an analytic smash product in the sense of Pirkovskii. Also we find sufficient…
Let g be a simple Lie algebra, with fixed Borel subalgebra b and with Weyl group W. Expanding on previous work of Fan and Stembridge in the simply laced case, this note aims to study the fully commutative elements of W, and their…
We study the shape parameters of the $D\pi$ scalar and vector form factors using as input dispersion relations and unitarity for the moments of suitable heavy-light correlators evaluated with Operator Product Expansions, including…
For G a semisimple algebraic group, we revisit the description of the components of the affne Springer fiber given by ts, with s a regular semisimple element. We then compute the fixed points of each component of a particular affne Springer…
It is shown that, under mild conditions, a complex reflection group $G(r,p,n)$ may be decomposed into a set-wise direct product of cyclic subgroups. This property is then used to extend the notion of major index and a corresponding Hilbert…
Let $\mathcal A$ be a hyperplane arrangement in $\mathbb C^n$. We show that the number of decomposition factors as a perverse sheaf of the direct image $Rj_*\mathbb C_U $ of the constant sheaf on the complement $U$ to the arrangement is…
We study the singularities of the irreducible components of the Springer fiber over a nilpotent element N with N^2=0 in a Lie algebra of type A or D (the so-called two columns case). We use Frobenius splitting techniques to prove that these…
According to Laumon, an affine Springer fiber is homeomorphic to the universal abelian covering of the compactified Jacobian of a spectral curve. We construct equivariant deformations $f_{n}:\overline{\mathcal{P}}_{n}\to \mathcal{B}_{n}$ of…
In recent work, Graham has constructed a variety with a map to the nilpotent cone which is similar in some ways to the Springer resolution. One aspect in which Graham's map differs is that it is not in general an isomorphism over the…
In the heavy quark limit, the form factors for semileptonic and rare radiative B decays into light mesons are related by heavy quark spin symmetry. Here we compute the leading corrections of order \Lambda/m_Q to these symmetry relations,…
Let $ G $ be a finite non-solvable group with a primitive irreducible character $ \chi $ that vanishes on one conjugacy class. We show that $ G $ has a homomorphic image that is either almost simple or a Frobenius group. We also classify…
We define a generalized Springer correspondence for the group GL(n) over any field. We also determine the cuspidal pairs, and compute the correspondence explicitly. Finally we define a stratification of the category of equivariant perverse…
We show that if $\pi$ is the fundamental group of a 4-dimensional infrasolvmanifold then $-2\leq{def(\pi)}\leq0$, and give examples realizing each of these values. We also determine the abstract commensurators of such groups. Finally we…
The purpose of this article is to set foundations for decomposition numbers of perverse sheaves, to give some methods to calculate them in simple cases, and to compute them concretely in two situations: for a simple (Kleinian) surface…
Irrespective of whether n is prime, prime power with exponent >1, or composite, the group U_n of units of Z_n can sometimes be obtained as the direct product of cyclic groups generated by x, x+k and x+2k, for x, k in Z_n. Indeed, for many…
In the classification theorems of Vinberg and Yakimova for commutative nilmanifolds, the relevant nilpotent groups have a very surprising analytic property. The manifolds are of the form $G/K = N \rtimes K/K$ where, in all but three cases,…
Kuznetsov showed that for a flat quadric fibration $\mathcal{Q}$ over a smooth base $S$, $\mathrm{D}^b(\mathcal{Q})$ admits a semiorthogonal decomposition where one of the components is the derived category of the sheaf of even parts of a…
Let $G$ be a split connected reductive group over a finite field of characteristic $p > 2$ such that $G_\text{der}$ is absolutely almost simple. We give a geometric construction of perverse $\mathbb{F}_p$-sheaves on the Iwahori affine flag…
