In this note we consider the complex representation theory of FI_d, a natural generalization of the category FI of finite sets and injections. We prove that finitely generated FI_d-modules exhibit behaviors in the spirit of Church-Farb…
We study asymptotic properties of the modular representation theory of symmetric groups and investigate modular analogs of stabilization phenomena in characteristic zero. The main results are equivalences of categories between certain…
In this paper we explore the representation property over sets. This property generalizes constructibility, however is weak enough to enable us to prove that the class of theories $T$ whose models are representable is exactly the class of…
In this survey article we summarize the current state of research in representation stability theory. We look at three different, yet related, approaches, using (1) the category of FI-modules, (2) Schur-Weyl duality, and (3)…
We prove a representation stability result for the sequence of spaces $\overline M_{g, n}^A$ of pointed admissible $A$-covers of stable $n$-pointed genus-$g$ curves, for an abelian group $A$. For fixed genus $g$ and homology degree $i$, we…
We define a notion of virtual Specht stability which is a relaxation of the Church-Farb notion of representation stability for sequences of symmetric group representations. Using a structural result of Nagpal, we show that $FI$-modules over…
We introduce the idea of *representation stability* (and several variations) for a sequence of representations V_n of groups G_n. A central application of the new viewpoint we introduce here is the importation of representation theory into…
We prove explicit linear stable ranges for the $\mathsf{FI}$-modules $\mathrm{Hom}(\pi_p \mathrm{Conf} M, \mathbb Z)$ and $\mathrm{Ext}(\pi_p \mathrm{Conf} M, \mathbb Z)$ with $\mathrm{Conf} M$ being the configuration co$\mathsf{FI}$-space…
We discuss certain effective improvements on superrigidity for $SL_n(\mathbb{Z})$ for finite $n>2$. Using these ideas we then use superrigidity to prove a representation stability theorem about pointwise finite dimensional…
For a simple linear algebraic group $G$ acting faithfully on a vector space $V$ and under mild assumptions, we show: if $V$ is large enough, then the Lie algebra of $G$ acts generically freely on $V$. That is, the stabilizer in the Lie…
In this paper, we study sequences of topological spaces called "vertical configuration spaces" of points in Euclidean space. We apply the theory of FI$_G$-modules, and results of Bianchi-Kranhold, to show that their (co)homology groups are…
We classify all irreducible generic $\mathrm{VI}$-modules in non-describing characteristic. Our result degenerates to yield a classification of irreducible generic $\mathrm{FI}$-modules in arbitrary characteristic. Our result can also be…
We prove a myriad of results related to the stabilizer in an algebraic group $G$ of a generic vector in a representation $V$ of $G$ over an algebraically closed field $k$. Our results are on the level of group schemes, which carries more…
For a fixed algebraic variety $X$, curve class $\alpha \in N_1(X)$, and genus $g \in \mathbb N$, we consider the sequence of $S_n$ representations obtained from the homology of the Kontsevich space of stable maps to $X$, $\bar…
We prove new homological stability results for general linear groups over finite fields. These results are obtained by constructing CW approximations to the classifying spaces of these groups, in the category of $E_\infty$-algebras, guided…
Let $N$ be a normal subgroup of a group $G$. An $N$-module $Q$ is $G$-stable provided that $Q$ is equivalent to the twist $Q^g$ of $Q$ by $g$, for every $g\in G$. If the action of $N$ on $Q$ extends to an action of $G$ on $Q$, $Q$ is…
The rational homology groups of the packing complexes are important in algebraic geometry since they control the syzygies of line bundles on projective embeddings of products of projective spaces (Segre--Veronese varieties). These complexes…
We answer positively a question of Church, Miller, Nagpal and Reinhold on existence of a linear bound on the presentation degree of the homology of a complex of FI-modules. This implies a linear stable range for the homology of congruence…
FI-modules were introduced by the first three authors in [CEF] to encode sequences of representations of symmetric groups. Over a field of characteristic 0, finite generation of an FI-module implies representation stability for the…
We explore the integration of representations from a Lie algebra to its algebraic group in positive characteristic. An integrable module is stable under the twists by group elements. Our aim is to investigate cohomological obstructions for…
