Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean local field. Let $\Cal W_F$ be the Weil group of $F$ and $\Cal P_F$ the wild inertia subgroup of $\scr W_F$. Let $\hat{\Cal W}_F$ be the set of equivalence classes of irreducible smooth representations of $\Cal…

A proof of freeness of the commutator subgroup of the fundamental group of a smooth irreducible affine curve over a countable algebraically closed field of nonzero characteristic. A description of the abelianizations of the fundamental…

In the local, characteristic 0, non archimedean case, we consider distributions on GL(n+1) which are invariant under the adjoint action of GL(n). We prove that such distributions are invariant by transposition. This implies that an…

Let $F$ be a local non-archimedian field of odd residue characteristic and let $G=PGL(2)$. In this paper we study an analog of irreducible cuspidal representations of the group $G(F)$ when $F$ is replaced by the field $K=F((t))$. The story…

Let G be a reductive connected p-adic group. With help of the Fourier inversion formula used in [Une formule de Plancherel pour l'algebre de Hecke d'un groupe reductif p-adique - V. Heiermann, Comm. Math. Helv. 76, 388-415, 2001] we give a…

Let W be a Coxeter group and L be a weight function on W. Following Lusztig, we have a corresponding decomposition of W into left cells, which have important applications in representation theory. We study the case where $W$ is an affine…

Given a finite group $G$ and a subgroup $K$, we study the commutant of $\text{Ind}_K^G\theta$, where $\theta$ is an irreducible $K$-representation. After a careful analysis of Frobenius reciprocity, we are able to introduce an orthogonal…

In this note we establish the following result (announced in a previous work): if a linear group is the image of a representation of a K\"ahler group, then it has a finite index subgroup which is the image of a representation of the…

Let G be a connected reductive complex affine algebraic group, and let X denote the moduli space of G-valued representations of a rank r free group. We first characterize the singularities in X, extending a theorem of Richardson and proving…

This paper has two aims. The first is to give a description of irreducible tempered representations of classical p-adic groups which follows naturally the classification of irreducible square integrable representations modulo cuspidal data…

In this paper we continue the study of locally analytic representations of a $p$-adic Lie group $G$ in vector spaces over a spherically complete non-archimedean field $K$, building on the algebraic approach to such representations…

A self-affine tiling of a compact set G of positive Lebesgue measure is its partition to parallel shifts of a compact set which is affinely similar to G. We find all polyhedral sets (unions of finitely many convex polyhedra) that admit…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group, and let $1\le p < \infty$. Consider the weighted $L^p$-space $L^p(G,\omega)=\{f:\int|f\omega|^p<\infty\}$, where $\omega:G\to \mathbb R$ is a positive measurable function. Under appropriate conditions on…

For any noncompact semisimple real Lie group $G$, we construct a group of affine transformations of its Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ whose linear part is Zariski-dense in $\operatorname{Ad} G$ and which is free, nonabelian and acts properly…

Let F be a finite field of odd cardinality, and let G= GL2(F). The group G \times G \times G acts on F^2 \otimes F^2 \otimes F^2 via symplectic similitudes, and has a natural Weil representation. Answering a question rasised by V. Drinfeld,…

Given a regular subgroup R of AGL_n(F), one can ask if R contains nontrivial translations. A negative answer to this question was given by Liebeck, Praeger and Saxl for AGL_2(p) (p a prime), AGL_3(p) (p odd) and for AGL_4(2). A positive…

Frames of translates of f in L^2(G) are characterized in terms of the zero-set of the so-called spectral symbol of f in the setting of a locally compact abelian group G having a compact open subgroup H. We refer to such a G as a number…

Multidimensional contractions of irreducible representations of Cayley--Klein orthogonal algebras in Gel'fand--Zetlin basis are considered. Contracted over different parameters, algebras can turn out to be isomorphic. In this case method of…

We give a classification of unitary representations of certain Polish, not necessarily locally compact, groups: the groups of all measurable functions with values in the circle and the groups of all continuous functions on compact, second…

Unitals can be obtained as closures of affine unitals via parallelisms. The isomorphism type of the closure depends on the chosen parallelism, which need not be unique. For affine $\operatorname{SL}(2,q)$-unitals, we introduce a class of…
