We investigate deformations of a skew group algebra that arise from a finite group acting on a polynomial ring. When the characteristic of the underlying field divides the order of the group, a new type of deformation emerges that does not…

We study asymptotics of characters of the symmetric groups on a fixed conjugacy class. It was proved by Kerov that such a character can be expressed as a polynomial in free cumulants of the Young diagram (certain functionals describing the…

In this paper, we begin to develop a theory of character sheaves on an affine algebraic group $G$ defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$ using the approach developed by Boyarchenko and Drinfeld for unipotent…

The purpose of this work is to provide details about the construction of the Chern character for categorical sheaves mentioned in our previous work "Chern character, loop spaces and derived algebraic geometry". For this, we introduce and…

We revisit Haiman's conjecture on the relations between characters of Kazdhan-Lusztig basis elements of the Hecke algebra over the symmetric group. The conjecture asserts that, for purposes of character evaluation, any Kazhdan-Lusztig basis…

We prove a series of ``knapsack'' type equalities for irreducible character degrees of symmetric groups. That is, we find disjoint subsets of the partitions of $n$ so that the two corresponding character-degree sums are equal. Our main…

The universal character is a polynomial attached to a pair of partitions and is a generalization of the Schur polynomial. In this paper, we introduce an integrable system of q-difference lattice equations satisfied by the universal…

If $G$ is a finite classical group, linear or unitary in any characteristic, and orthogonal in odd characteristic, we give an approximate formula for $\chi(g)$ in which the error term is much smaller than the estimate, when $g\in G$ is an…

Let H be any reductive p-adic group. We introduce a notion of cuspidality for enhanced Langlands parameters for H, which conjecturally puts supercuspidal H-representations in bijection with such L-parameters. We also define a cuspidal…

Lusztig has given a construction of certain representations of reductive groups over finite local principal ideal rings of characteristic p, extending the construction of Deligne and Lusztig of representations of reductive groups over…

We develop a theory of general sheaves over weighted projective lines. We define and study a canonical decomposition, analogous to Kac's canonical decomposition for representations of quivers, study subsheaves of a general sheaf, general…

The problem of computing the characters of the finite dimensional irreducible representations of the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{gl}(m|n)$ over $\C$ was solved a few years ago by V. Serganova. In this article, we present an entirely…

Let (G,K) be a symmetric pair over the complex numbers, and let X=K\G be the corresponding symmetric space. In this paper we study a nearby cycles functor associated to a degeneration of X to MN\G, which we call the "wonderful…

Let $H$ be a nonabelian finite simple group. Huppert's conjecture asserts that if $G$ is a finite group with the same set of complex character degrees as $H$, then $G\cong H\times A$ for some abelian group $A$. Over the past two decades,…

The two main theorems proved here are as follows: If $A$ is a finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field, the identity component of the algebraic group of outer automorphisms of $A$ is invariant under derived equivalence.…

We construct a full rectangular Lefschetz collection in the derived category of the adjoint Grassmannian in type $\mathrm{F}_4$. This gives the first example of a full exceptional collection on this variety and also completes the proof of a…

B. Kim and the first author proved a result comparing the virtual fundamental classes of the moduli spaces of stable quasimaps and stable LG-quasimaps by studying localized Chern characters for 2-periodic complexes. In this paper, we study…

In 1979 Lusztig proposed a conjectural construction of supercuspidal representations of reductive p-adic groups, which is similar to the well known construction of Deligne and Lusztig in the setting of finite reductive groups. We present a…

We prove that two global fields are isomorphic if and only if there is an isomorphism of groups of Dirichlet characters that preserves L-series.

We show in this paper that in the context of graded Lie algebras, all cuspidal character sheaves arise from a nearby-cycle construction followed by a Fourier--Sato transform in a very specific manner. Combined with results of the last two…
