A real Lie algebra with a compatible Hilbert space structure (in the sense that the scalar product is invariant) is called a Hilbert-Lie algebra. Such Lie algebras are natural infinite-dimensional analogues of the compact Lie algebras; in…
Motivated by asymptotic symmetry groups in general relativity, we consider projective unitary representations $\overline{\rho}$ of the Lie group $\mathrm{Diff}_c(M)$ of compactly supported diffeomorphisms of a smooth manifold $M$ that…
Let $\Sigma_{g,d}$ an orientable topological surface of genus $g$ with $d$ punctures. When $g = 0$, Deroin and Tholozan studied the class of supra-maximal representations $\pi_1(\Sigma_{0,d})\to \mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{R})$, and they showed…

Let $V$ be a finite-dimensional real vector space and $K$ a compact simple Lie group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{k}$. Consider the Fr\'echet-Lie group $G := J_0^\infty(V; K)$ of $\infty$-jets at $0 \in V$ of smooth maps $V \to K$, with Lie…
We give a constructive classification of the positive energy (lowest weight) unitary irreducible representations of the D=6 superconformal algebras osp(8*/2N). Our results confirm all but one of the conjectures of Minwalla (for N=1,2) on…
We study the affine variety $L_{n}(\mathfrak{g})$ of Lie algebra representations, the collection of all homomorphisms from an arbitrary $n$-dimensional Lie algebra into a fixed real semi-simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. Using techniques…
We summarize our recent construction of new fuzzy hyperspheres $S^d_{\Lambda}$ of arbitrary dimension $d$ covariant under the {\it full} orthogonal group $O(D)$, $D=d+1$. We impose a suitable energy cutoff on a quantum particle in…
Let $\lambda$ be a symplectic partition, denote Jord^{bp}($\lambda$) the set of even positive integers i which appear in $\lambda$, and let a map $\epsilon:Jord^{bp}(\lambda) \to {\pm 1}$. The generalized Springer's correspondence…
We present some results about the irreducible representations appearing in the exterior algebra $\Lambda \mathfrak{g}$, where $ \mathfrak{g}$ is a simple Lie algebra over $\mathbb{C}$. For Lie algebras of type $B$, $C$ or $D$ we prove that…
Let G be a semi-simple non-compact Lie group with unitary lowest/highest weight representations. We consider explicitly the relation between three types of representations of G: positive energy (unitary lowest weight)representations,…
We consider compact locally symmetric spaces $\Gamma\backslash G/H$ where $G/H$ is a non-compact semisimple symmetric space and $\Gamma$ is a discrete subgroup of $G$. We discuss some features of the joint spectrum of the (commutative)…
Let $c,h$ and $c,\tilde{h}$ be two admissible pairs of central charge and highest weight for ${\rm Diff}^+(S^1)$. It is shown here that the positive energy irreducible projective unitary representations $U_{c,h}$ and $U_{c,\tilde{h}}$ of…
We construct the positive principal series representations for $\mathcal{U}_q(\mathfrak{g}_\mathbb{R})$ where $\mathfrak{g}$ is of simply-laced type, parametrized by $\mathbb{R}_{\geq 0}^r$ where $r$ is the rank of $\mathfrak{g}$. We…

Let $H$ be an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space, $B(H)$ the $C^*$-algebra of all bounded linear operators on $H,$ $U(B(H))$ the unitary group of $B(H)$ and ${\cal K}\subset B(H)$ the ideal of compact operators. Let $G$ be a…
We studied the positive representations $P_\lambda$ of split real quantum groups $U_{q\tilde{q}}(g_R)$ restricted to the Borel subalgebra $U_{q\tilde{q}}(b_R)$. We proved that the restriction is independent of the parameter $\lambda$.…
