We construct 2-representations of quantum affine algebras from 2-representations of quantum Heisenberg algebras. The main tool in this construction are categorical vertex operators, which are certain complexes in a Heisenberg…

A group action on the input ring or category induces an action on the algebraic $K$-theory spectrum. However, a shortcoming of this naive approach to equivariant algebraic $K$-theory is, for example, that the map of spectra with $G$-action…

If $(R,I)$ is a henselian pair with an action of a finite group $G$ and $n\ge 1$ is an integer coprime to $|G|$ and such that $n\cdot |G|\in R^*$, then the reduction map of mod-$n$ equivariant $K$-theory spectra \[…

For a complex reductive group G acting linearly on a complex affine space V with respect to a character, we show two stratifications of V associated to this action (and a choice of invariant inner product on the Lie algebra of the maximal…

Given an action of an affine algebraic group with only trivial characters on a factorial variety, we ask for categorical quotients. We characterize existence in the category of algebraic varieties. Moreover, allowing constructible sets as…

Let $G$ be an affine group scheme over a noetherian commutative ring $R$. We show that every $G$-equivariant vector bundle on an affine toric scheme over $R$ with $G$-action is extended from $\Spec(R)$ for several cases of $R$ and $G$. We…

We develop a theory of twisted actions of categorical groups using a notion of semidirect product of categories. We work through numerous examples to demonstrate the power of these notions. Turning to representations, which are actions that…

Let $A=\underrightarrow{\lim}{A_n}$ be an AF algebra, $G$ be a compact group. We consider inductive limit actions of the form $\alpha=\underrightarrow{\lim}{\alpha_n}$, where $\alpha_n\colon G\curvearrowright A_n$ is an action on the finite…

Let G be a connected reductive group over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic 0, X an affine symplectic variety equipped with a Hamiltonian action of G. Further, let * be a G-invariant Fedosov star-product on X such that the…

For a classical group $G$ over a field $F$ together with a finite-order automorphism $\theta$ that acts compatibly on $F$, we describe the fixed point subgroup of $\theta$ on $G$ and the eigenspaces of $\theta$ on the Lie algebra…

Diagram algebras (e.g. graded braid groups, Hecke algebras, Brauer algebras) arise as tensor power centralizer algebras, algebras of commuting operators for a Lie algebra action on a tensor space. This work explores centralizers of the…

Let $\Gamma$ be a weakly irreducible higher rank lattice. In this paper, we will prove various rigidity results for the $\Gamma$-action following a philosophy of the Zimmer program. We provide new rigidity results including local and global…

Let g be a complex simple Lie algebra and Uq(Lg) its quantum loop algebra, where q is not a root of unity. We give an explicit formula for the quantum Weyl group action of the coroot lattice Q of g on finite-dimensional representations of…

Let $G$ be a connected algebraic $k$-group acting on a normal $k$-variety, where $k$ is a field. We show that $X$ is covered by open $G$-stable quasi-projective subvarieties; moreover, any such subvariety admits an equivariant embedding…

We consider the action of Hecke-type operators on Hilbert-Siegel theta series attached to lattices of even rank. We show that average Hilbert-Siegel theta series are eigenforms for these operators, and we explicitly compute the eigenvalues.

The Iwahori-Hecke algebra of type A acts on tensor product space of the natural representation of the quantum superalgebra U_q(gl(m,n)). We show this action of the Hecke algebra and the action of U_q(gl(m,n)) on the same space determine…

We study the representation theory of a generalized graded Hecke algebra associated to a complex reflection group of type G(r,1,n), defined by Ram and Shepler. We use a realization of this algebra in the corresponding symplectic reflection…

Heisenberg categories act on many Abelian categories appearing in type A representation theory. There is also a general procedure to construct from a Heisenberg action another action of a Kac-Moody 2-category for some associated Cartan…
