We define basic notions in the category of conic representations of a topological group and prove elementary facts about them. We show that a conic representation determines an ordinary dynamical system of the group together with a…

We develop the rudiments of a finite-dimensional representation theory of groups over idempotent semifields by considering linear actions on tropical linear spaces. This can be considered a tropical representation theory, a characteristic…

The cohomology of the degree-$n$ general linear group over a finite field of characteristic $p$, with coefficients also in characteristic $p$, remains poorly understood. For example, the lowest degree previously known to contain nontrivial…

A real representation $\pi$ of a finite group may be regarded as a homomorphism to an orthogonal group $\Or(V)$. For symmetric groups $S_n$, alternating groups $A_n$, and products $S_n \times S_{n'}$ of symmetric groups, we give criteria…

We study generalized splines from the perspective of the representation theory of the category of graphs with contractions. Our main theorem proves a kind of finite generation, which in turn implies the existence of a ``universal generating…

We give sufficient conditions which ensure that a functor of finite length from an additive category to finite-dimensional vector spaces has a projective resolution whose terms are finitely generated. For polynomial functors, we study also…

We give refined bounds for the regularity of FI-modules and the stable ranges of FI-modules for various forms of their stabilization studied in the representation stability literature. We show that our bounds are sharp in several cases. We…

We prove a general structure theorem for finitely presented torsion modules over a class of commutative rings that need not be Noetherian. As a first application, we then use this result to study the Weil- \'etale cohomology groups of…

The special structures that arise in symplectic topology (particularly Gromov--Witten invariants and quantum homology) place as yet rather poorly understood restrictions on the topological properties of symplectomorphism groups. This…

In this paper, we develop a representation-theoretic formulation of discrete-time linear systems. We show that such systems are naturally viewed as representations of time groups acting on vector spaces, thereby endowing the state space…

We study the general linear groups of infinite fields (or more generally connected semi-local rings with infinite residue fields) from the perspective of $E_\infty$-algebras. We prove that there is a vanishing line of slope 2 for their…

We establish a relative version of the abstract "affine representability" theorem in ${\mathbb A}^1$--homotopy theory from Part I of this paper. We then prove some ${\mathbb A}^1$--invariance statements for generically trivial torsors under…

The aim of the present survey paper is to provide an accessible introduction to a new chapter of representation theory - harmonic analysis for noncommutative groups with infinite-dimensional dual space. I omitted detailed proofs but tried…

In this paper, we study some basic geometric properties of pseudohermitian submanifolds of the Heisenberg groups. In particular, we obtain the uniqueness and existence theorems, and some rigidity theorems.

For a mixing shift of finite type, the associated automorphism group has a rich algebraic structure, and yet we have few criteria to distinguish when two such groups are isomorphic. We introduce a stabilization of the automorphism group,…

In this paper, a decomposition theorem for (covariant) unitary group representations on Kaplansky-Hilbert modules over Stone algebras is established, which generalizes the well-known Hilbert space case (where it coincides with the…

We give a generalization of Gelfand's criterion on the commutativity of Hecke algebras for Gelfand pairs and multiplicity-free triples over algebraically closed fields of arbitrary characteristic. Using more lenient versions of projectivity…

This paper proves two results on the field of rationality $\Q(\pi)$ for an automorphic representation $\pi$, which is the subfield of $\C$ fixed under the subgroup of $\Aut(\C)$ stabilizing the isomorphism class of the finite part of $\pi$.…

Homological algebra of modules over posets is developed, as closely parallel as possible to that of finitely generated modules over noetherian commutative rings, in the direction of finite presentations and resolutions. Centrally at issue…

Let $\Gamma_1$ and $\Gamma_2$ be two lattices of finite covolume in a semisimple Lie group $G$. We prove a spectral rigidity result for the representation spectra of the right regular representations $L^2(\Gamma_1 \backslash G)$ and…
