We state a conjecture, local Langlands in families, connecting the centre of the category of smooth representations on $\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{q}^{-1}]$-modules of a quasi-split $p$-adic group $\mathrm{G}$ (where $q$ is the cardinality of the…
Let M\"ob be the biholomorphic automorphism group of the unit disc of the complex plane, $\mathcal{H}$ be a complex separable Hilbert space and $\mathcal{U}(\mathcal{H})$ be the group of all unitary operators. Suppose $\mathcal{H}$ is a…
In an earlier paper we propose an approach to the unitarizability problem in the case of classical groups over a p-adic field of characteristic zero based on cuspidal reducibility points. We have reduced earlier the unitarizability for…
A crucial role in representation theory of loop groups of reductive Lie groups and their Lie algebras is played by their non-trivial second cohomology classes which give rise to their central extensions (the affine Kac-Moody groups and Lie…
We study the commutator subgroup of integral orthogonal groups belonging to indefinite quadratic forms. We show that the index of this commutator is 2 for many groups that occur in the construction of moduli spaces in algebraic geometry, in…
The theory of representations of Clifford algebras is extended to employ the division algebra of the octonions or Cayley numbers. In particular, questions that arise from the non-associativity and non-commutativity of this division algebra…
For classical groups we show the isomorphism of the Knapp-Stein $R$-group, which describes the structure of parabolically induced representations, and the Arthur $R$-group of the parameter associated to the inducing representation by the…
Quaternionic automorphic representations are one attempt to generalize to other groups the special place holomorphic modular forms have among automorphic representations of $\mathrm{GL}_2$. Here, we use "hyperendoscopy" techniques to…
Liedtke (2008) has introduced group functors $K$ and $\tilde K$, which are used in the context of describing certain invariants for complex algebraic surfaces. He proved that these functors are connected to the theory of central extensions…
Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a locally bounded $k$-category and $G$ a torsion-free group of $k$-linear automorphisms of $\mathcal{A}$ acting freely on the objects of $\mathcal{A},$ and $F:\mathcal{A}\rightarrow \mathcal{B}$ is a Galois functor. We…
In 1967, Langlands conjectured a natural correspondence between automorphic representations and Galois representations, over number fields as well as over function fields. In 1983, Drinfeld discovered a geometric analog of the Langlands…
Let $F$ be a local non-Archimedean field and $E$ a finite Galois extension of $F$, with Galois group $G$. If $\rho$ is a representation of $G$ on a complex vector space $V$, we may compose it with any tensor operation $R$ on $V$, and get…
We incorporate nonlinear covers of quasisplit reductive groups into the Langlands program, defining an L-group associated to such a cover. This L-group is an extension of the absolute Galois group of a local or global field $F$ by a complex…
Let (G,d) be a first order differential *-calculus on a *-algebra A. We say that a pair (\pi,F) of a *-representation \pi of A on a dense domain D of a Hilbert space and a symmetric operator F on D gives a commutator representation of G if…
In this work we develop an integral representation for the partial $L$-function of a pair $\pi\times\tau$ of genuine irreducible cuspidal automorphic representations, $\pi$ of the $m$-fold covering of Matsumoto of the symplectic group…
Ostrogradsky instability generally appears in nondegenerate higher-order derivative theories and this issue can be resolved by removing any existing degeneracy present in such theories. We consider an action involving terms that are at most…
We further develop and simplify the general theory of distinguished tame supercuspidal representations of reductive $p$-adic groups due to Hakim and Murnaghan, as well as the analogous theory for finite reductive groups due to Lusztig. We…
Let $F$ be a locally compact non-Archimedean field, and $\bf G$ a connected quasi-split reductive group over $F$. We are interested in complex irreducible smooth generic representations $\pi$ of ${\bf G}(F)$. When $F$ has positive…
Partition functions, also known as homomorphism functions, form a rich family of graph invariants that contain combinatorial invariants such as the number of k-colourings or the number of independent sets of a graph and also the partition…
We study two-parameter oscillator variations of the classical theorem on harmonic polynomials, associated with noncanonical oscillator representations of sl(n) and o(n). We find the condition when the homogeneous solution spaces of the…
