By using combinatorics, we give a new proof for the recurrence relations of the characteristic polynomial coefficients, and then we obtain an explicit expression for the generic term of the coefficient sequence, which yields the trace…

For the BGG category of $\mathfrak{q}(n)$-modules of half-integer weights, a Kazhdan-Lusztig conjecture \`a la Brundan is formulated in terms of categorical canonical basis of the $n$th tensor power of the natural representation of the…

We introduce the notion of characters of comodules over coribbon Hopf algebras. The case of quantum groups of type $A_n$ is studied. We establish a characteristic equation for the quantum matrix and a q-analogue of Harish-Chandra-…

We consider two important families of BC_n-symmetric polynomials, namely Okounkov's interpolation polynomials and Koornwinder's orthogonal polynomials. We give a family of difference equations satisfied by the former, as well as…

A parametrization of irreducible unitary representations associated with the regular adjoint orbits of a hyperspecial compact subgroup of a reductive group over a non-dyadic non-archimedean local filed is presented. The parametrization is…

We give formulae relating the value of an irreducible character of a classical group at a matrix to entries of powers of the matrix. This yields a far-reaching generalization of a result of J. L. Cisneros-Molina concerning the $GL_2$ case.

We classify the finite dimensional representations of the quantum symmetric pair coideal subalgebra $B_{\mathbf c}$ of type $DII$ corresponding to the symmetric pair $(so(2N),so(2N-1))$. For $B_{\mathbf c}$ defined over an arbitrary field…

We continue investigating the superintegrability property of matrix models, i.e. factorization of the matrix model averages of characters. This paper focuses on the Gaussian Hermitian example, where the role of characters is played by the…

We consider sequences of degrees of ordinary irreducible $S_n$-characters. We assume that the corresponding Young diagrams have rows and columns bounded by some linear function of $n$ with leading coefficient less than one. We show that any…

We study a one-parameter family of binomial-convolution operators acting on sequences. These operators form an additive semigroup with an explicit inverse, and they subsume iterated classical binomial transforms as a special case. We…

We establish a super Frobenius formula for the characters of Iwahori-Hecke algebras. We show that the Hall-Littlewood sypersymmetric function, up to constant, generates the values of the irreducible characters of Iwahori-Hecke algebras at…

We describe algorithms to represent and compute groups of Hecke characters. We make use of an id{\`e}lic point of view and obtain the whole family of such characters, including transcendental ones. We also show how to isolate the algebraic…

We develop a new method to solve the irreducible character problem for a wide class of modules over the general linear superalgebra, including all the finite-dimensional modules, by directly relating the problem to the classical…

Let $U$ be the unitriangular group over a finite field. We consider an interesting class of irreducible complex characters of $U$, so-called characters of depth 2. This is a next natural step after characters of maximal and submaximal…

A classical result of Littlewood gives a factorisation for the Schur function at a set of variables "twisted" by a primitive $t$-th root of unity, characterised by the core and quotient of the indexing partition. While somewhat neglected,…

We extend the Howlett-Isaacs theorem on the solvability of groups of central type taking into account actions by automorphisms. Then we study certain induced characters whose constituents have all the same degree.

The purpose of the present paper is to investigate a hypergroup associated with irreducible characters of a compact hypergroup $H$ and a closed subhypergroup $H_0$ of $H$ with $|H/H_0|< +\infty$. The convolution of this hypergroup is…

One of the most central result in combinatorics says that the descent statistic and the excedance statistic are equidistribued over the symmetric group. As a continuation of the work of Shareshian-Wachs (Adv. Math., 225(6) (2010),…

In this paper we study the characters of sequences of representations of any of the three families of classical Weyl groups W_n: the symmetric groups, the signed permutation groups (hyperoctahedral groups), or the even-signed permutation…

We define the notion of a semicharacter of a group G : A function from the group to C*, whose restriction to any abelian subgroup is a homomorphism. We conjecture that for any finite group, the order of the group of semicharacters is…
