Consider a finite-dimensional real vector space equipped with a finite group acting unitarily on it. We address the general problem of constructing Euclidean stable embeddings of the quotient space of orbits. Our approach is based on…

Suppose that G is a finite, unitary reflection group acting on a complex vector space V and X is the fixed point subspace of an element of G. Define N to be the setwise stabilizer of X in G, Z to be the pointwise stabilizer, and C=N/Z. Then…

We study topological full groups attached to groupoid models for left regular representations of Garside categories. Groups arising in this way include Thompson's group $V$ and many of its variations such as R\"over-Nekrashevych groups. Our…

Given a reflection group $G$ acting on a complex vector space $V$, a reflection map is the composition of an embedding $X \hookrightarrow V$ with the orbit map $V\to\mathbb C^p$ that maps a $G$-orbit to a point. Reflection maps can be very…

We consider spatial discretizations by the finite section method of the restricted group algebra of a finitely generated discrete group, which is represented as a concrete operator algebra via its left-regular representation. Special…

Let G be a noncocompact irreducible arithmetic group over a global function field K of characteristic p, and let H be a finite-index, residually p-finite subgroup of G. We show that the cohomology of H in the dimension of its associated…

We give a characterization of limits of dihedral groups in the space of finitely generated marked groups. We also describe the topological closure of dihedral groups in the space of marked groups on a fixed number of generators.

We give parameterizations of the irreducible representations of finite groups of Lie type in their defining characteristic.

We show that if G is an infinitely generated locally (polycyclic-by-finite) group with cohomology almost everywhere finitary, then every finite subgroup of G acts freely and orthogonally on some sphere.

Differential-geometric structures on the space of orbits of a finite Coxeter group, determined by Groth\'endieck residues, are calculated. This gives a construction of a 2D topological field theory for an arbitrary Coxeter group.

Some new results on metric ultraproducts of finite simple groups are presented. Suppose that G is such a group, defined in terms of a non-principal ultrafilter {\omega} on N and a sequence {(G_i)_{i \in N}} of finite simple groups, and that…

We describe geometrically the classical and quantum inhomogeneous groups $G_0=(SL(2, \BbbC)\triangleright \BbbC^2)$ and $G_1=(SL(2, \BbbC)\triangleright \BbbC^2)\triangleright \BbbC$ by studying explicitly their shape algebras as a spaces…

Mathematical core of quantum mechanics is the theory of unitary representations of symmetries of physical systems. We argue that quantum behavior is a natural result of extraction of "observable" information about systems containing…

If A is a finite dimensional nilpotent associative algebra over a finite field k, the set G=1+A of all formal expressions of the form 1+a, where a is an element of A, has a natural group structure, given by (1+a)(1+b)=1+(a+b+ab). A finite…

We show that certain representations over fields with positive characteristic of groups having CAT(0) fixed point property ${\rm F}\mathcal{B}_{\widetilde{A}_n}$ have finite image. In particular, we obtain rigidity results for…

Let $V$ be a finite-dimensional vector space over the complex numbers and let $G\leq \operatorname{SL}(V)$ be a finite group. We describe the class group of a minimal model (that is, $\mathbb Q$-factorial terminalization) of the linear…

We introduce and develop a categorification of the theory of Real representations of finite groups. In particular, we generalize the categorical character theory of Ganter--Kapranov and Bartlett to the Real setting. Given a Real…

Let $d \geq 2$ be an integer. We conjecture that there is a finitely generated perfect group whose homomorphic images include all finite $d$-generated perfect groups. We prove a special case of this conjecture for the finite perfect groups…

We investigate orthogonal representations of compact Lie groups from the point of view of their quotient spaces, considered as metric spaces. We study metric spaces which are simultaneously quotients of different representations and…

Let F be a finite field with q elements, let A be a finite dimensional F-algebra and let J=J(A) be the Jacobson radical of A. Then G=1+J is a p-group, where p is the characteristic of F. We refer to G as an F-algebra group. A subgroup H of…
