We consider converses to the density theorem for irreducible, projective, unitary group representations restricted to lattices using the dimension theory of Hilbert modules over twisted group von Neumann algebras. We show that under the…
In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of the sum of twisted traces of self-dual or conjugate self-dual discrete automorphic representations of $\mathrm{GL}_n$ for the level aspect of principal congruence subgroups under some…
We investigate deformations of a skew group algebra that arise from a finite group acting on a polynomial ring. When the characteristic of the underlying field divides the order of the group, a new type of deformation emerges that does not…
We consider a random walk on a homogeneous space $G/\Lambda$ where $G$ is a non-compact simple Lie group and $\Lambda$ is a lattice. The walk is driven by a probability measure $\mu$ on $G$ whose support generates a Zariski-dense subgroup.…
The Basic Universal Deformation Formula is proven and applied to show that Weyl algebras, which encode Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, are effective deformations of polynomial rings, and that uncertainty is necessary for stability.…
We compute by a purely local method the (elliptic) twisted by transpose-inverse character \chi_{\pi_Y} of the representation \pi_Y=I_{(3,1)}(1_3x\chi_Y) of G=GL(4,F), where F is a p-adic field, p not 2, and Y is an unramified quadratic…
We prove a conjecture of Medvedev and Scanlon for endomorphisms of connected commutative linear algebraic groups $G$ defined over an algebraically closed field $\mathbb{k}$ of characteristic $0$. That is, if $\Phi\colon G\longrightarrow G$…
Let $G$ be a connected complex semisimple Lie group with a fixed maximal torus $T$ and a Borel subgroup $B \supset T$. For an arbitrary automorphism $\theta$ of $G$, we introduce a holomorphic Poisson structure $\pi_\theta$ on $G$ which is…
We study the generalized doubling method for pairs of representations of $G\times GL_k$ where $G$ is a symplectic group, split special orthogonal group or split general spin group. We analyze the poles of the local integrals, and prove that…
Let A be a symmetrizable hyperbolic generalized Cartan matrix with Kac-Moody algebra g = g(A) and (adjoint) Kac-Moody group G = G(A)=$\langle\exp(ad(t e_i)), \exp(ad(t f_i)) \,|\, t\in C\rangle$ where $e_i$ and $f_i$ are the simple root…
We consider a finite-dimensional, locally finite CAT(0) cube complex X admitting a co-compact properly discontinuous countable group of automorphisms G. We construct a natural compact metric space B(X) on which G acts by homeomorphisms, the…
For each finite, irreducible Coxeter system $(W,S)$, Lusztig has associated a set of "unipotent characters" $\Uch(W)$. There is also a notion of a "Fourier transform" on the space of functions $\Uch(W) \to \RR$, due to Lusztig for Weyl…
Twisted generalized Weyl algebras (TGWAs) $A(R,\sigma,t)$ are defined over a base ring $R$ by parameters $\sigma$ and $t$, where $\sigma$ is an $n$-tuple of automorphisms, and $t$ is an $n$-tuple of elements in the center of $R$. We show…
Let $\bf{x}$ be a random variable with density $\rho(x)$ taking values in ${\mathbb R}^d$. We are interested in finding a representation for the shape of $\rho(x)$, i.e. for the orbit $\{ \rho(g\cdot x) | g\in E(d) \}$ of $\rho$ under the…
We show the existence of regular combinatorial objects which previously were not known to exist. Specifically, for a wide range of the underlying parameters, we show the existence of non-trivial orthogonal arrays, t-designs, and t-wise…
Let $G$ be a simple linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic two. Any non-trivial self-dual irreducible $K[G]$-module $W$ admits a non-degenerate $G$-invariant alternating bilinear form, thus giving a…
Let $\Omega$ be either the unit polydisc $\mathbb D^d$ or the unit ball $\mathbb B_d$ in $\mathbb C^d$ and $G$ be a finite pseudoreflection group which acts on $\Omega.$ Associated to each one-dimensional representation $\varrho$ of $G,$ we…
Kaplanski's Zero Divisor Conjecture envisions that for a torsion-free group G and an integral domain R, the group ring R[G] does not contain non-trivial zero divisors. We define the length of an element a in R[G] as the minimal non-negative…
It has been claimed by Halmos in [Comment on the real line, Bull. Amer. Math. Soc., 50 (1944), 877-878] that if G is a Hausdorff locally compact topological abelian group and if the character group of G is torsion free then G is divisible.…
In a group, a generalized torsion element is a non-identity element whose some non-empty finite product of its conjugates yields the identity. Such an element is an obstruction for a group to be bi-orderable. We show that the Weeks…
