Schur-Weyl duality is a fundamental framework in combinatorial representation theory. It intimately relates the irreducible representations of a group to the irreducible representations of its centralizer algebra. We investigate the analog…

In this thesis we will study matrix models with discrete gauge group $S_N$. We will put these matrix models into a generalized Schur-Weyl duality framework where dual algebras, known as partition algebras, emerge. These form generalizations…

This paper investigates the representation theory of the algebra of partially transposed permutation operators, $\mathcal{A}^d_{p,p}$, which provides a matrix representation for the abstract walled Brauer algebra. This algebra has recently…

This paper is concerned with integrals which integrands are the monomials of matrix elements of irreducible representations of classical groups. Based on analysis on Young tableaux, we discuss some related duality theorems and compute the…

The split basis of an irreducible representation of the symmetric group, $S_{n+m}$, is the basis which is adapted to direct product subgroups of the form $S_{n} \times S_{m}$. In this article we have calculated symmetric group subduction…

A complexified Heisenberg matrix group $\mathrm{H}_\mathbb{C}$ with entries from an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $H$ is investigated. The Weyl--Schr\"odinger type irreducible representations of $\mathrm{H}_\mathbb{C}$ on the space…

The partition algebra $\mathsf{P}_k(n)$ and the symmetric group $\mathsf{S}_n$ are in Schur-Weyl duality on the $k$-fold tensor power $\mathsf{M}_n^{\otimes k}$ of the permutation module $\mathsf{M}_n$ of $\mathsf{S}_n$, so there is a…

For finite Lie algebras, it is shown that characters can be defined first for Weyl orbits and then for irreducible representations. For $A_N$ Lie algebras, weight multiplicities can then be calculated by only stating that characters are…

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.

Following the general idea of Schur--Weyl scheme and using two suitable symmetric groups (instead of one), we try to make more explicit the classical problem of decomposing tensor representations of finite and infinite symmetric groups into…

This is an expository book on unitary representations of topological groups, and of several dual spaces, which are spaces of such representations up to some equivalence. The most important notions are defined for topological groups, but a…

The classical Peter-Weyl theorem describes the structure of the space of functions on a semi-simple algebraic group. On the level of characters (in type A) this boils down to the Cauchy identity for the products of Schur polynomials. We…

A method to construct irreducible unitary representations of a hyperspecial compact subgroup of a reductive group over p-adic field with odd p is presented. Our method is based upon Cliffods theory and Weil representations over finite…

We examine unitary and nonunitary representations of the Heisenberg-Weyl Lie algebra $\mathfrak{hw}_n$, with particular emphasis on tensor products of unitary representations and on indecomposable nonunitary representations. In the unitary…

In Part 1 we study the spherical functions on compact symmetric pairs of arbitrary rank under a suitable multiplicity freeness assumption and additional conditions on the branching rules. The spherical functions are taking values in the…

We study the notion of essential dimension for a linear representation of a finite group. In characteristic zero we relate it to the canonical dimension of certain products of Weil transfers of generalized Severi-Brauer varieties. We then…

A discussion of character formulae for positive energy unitary irreducible representations of the the conformal group is given, employing Verma modules and Weyl group reflections. Product formulae for various conformal group representations…

We give a general definition of classical and quantum groups whose representation theory is "determined by partitions" and study their structure. This encompasses many examples of classical groups for which Schur-Weyl duality is described…

R. Stanley has found a nice combinatorial formula for characters of irreducible representations of the symmetric group of rectangular shape. Then, he has given a conjectural generalisation for any shape. Here, we will prove this formula…

We discuss the deformed function algebra of a simply connected reductive Lie group G over the complex numbers using a basis consisting of matrix elements of finite dimensional representations. This leads to a preferred deformation, meaning…
