We construct a central extension of the group of automorphisms of a 2-Tate vector space viewed as a discrete 2-group. This is done using an action of this 2-group on a 2-gerbe of gerbel theories. This central extension is used to define…

Let $G$ be a group acting on a field $L$, and suppose that $L /L^G$ is a finite extension. We show that the category of semilinear representations of $G$ over $L$ can be described in terms of the category of linear representations of $H$,…

The representation theory of tensor functions is essential to constitutive modeling of materials including both mechanical and physical behaviors. Generally, material symmetry is incorporated in the tensor functions through a structural or…

We classify, up to isomorphism, the 2-dimensional algebras over a field K. We focuse also on the case of characteristic 2, identifying the matrices of GL(2,F_2) with the elements of the symmetric group S_3. The classification is then given…

Relatively dominated representations give a common generalization of geometrically finiteness in rank one on the one hand, and the Anosov condition which serves as a higher-rank analogue of convex cocompactness on the other. This note…

The results here presented are a continuation of the algebraic research line which attempts to find properties of multiple-valued systems based on a poset of two agents. The aim of this paper is to exhibit two relationships between some…

The theory of a two-valued algebraic group structure on a complex plane and complex projective line is developed. In this theory, depending on the choice of the neutral element, the local multiplication law is given by the Buchstaber…

We first review some invariant theoretic results about the finite subgroups of SU(2) in a quick algebraic way by using the McKay correspondence and quantum affine Cartan matrices. By the way it turns out that some parameters (a,b,h;p,q,r)…

In math.RT/0302174 we developed a framework to study representations of groups of the form $G((t))$, where $G$ is an algebraic group over a local field $K$. The main feature of this theory is that natural representations of groups of this…

In this article it is determined which integral reflection representations of the symmetric groups and the primitive complex reflection groups of degree $2$ have rings of invariants which are isomorphic to polynomial rings.

We explore the category of internal categories in the usual category of (right) group-sets, whose objects are referred to as categorified group-sets. More precisely, we develop a new Burnside theory, where the equivalence relation between…

In this short note, we give a new sufficient condition for a linear map from a product of copies of a field to endomorphisms of a finite dimensional vector space over the same field to be an algebra homomorphism. We expect that this result…

We generalize the concept of cubic group into any dimension and derive their conjugate classifications and representation theorys. Double group and spinor representation are defined. A detailed calculation is carried out on the structures…

In [22], Crane and Sheppard considered the structure of the Poincare group as a 2-Group, and derived important information about its representations in a 2-Category suited for representations of non-compact 2-groups, following a lead of…

We use the structure of finite-dimensional graded algebras to develop the theory of antilinear representations of finite $C_2$-graded groups. A finite $C_2$-graded group is a finite group with a subgroup of index 2. In this theory the…

Based on different views on the Jones polynomial we review representation theoretic categorified link and tangle invariants. We unify them in a common combinatorial framework and connect them via the theory of Soergel bimodules. The…

In this paper, we construct and study derived character maps of finite-dimensional representations of $\infty$-groups. As models for $\infty$-groups we take homotopy simplicial groups, i.e. homotopy simplicial algebras over the algebraic…

We show that the class of inductive limits of the representations of finite symmetric groups with simple spectrum coinsides with the class of Markov representations of the infinite symmetric group associated with Markov measures on the…

We introduce the definition of totally nonfree actions of groups; such actions are naturally related to the theory of characters of groups and their factor-representations of type II. This short note is a brief exposition of a part of a…

Gelfand-Graev characters and their degenerate counterparts have an important role in the representation theory of finite groups of Lie type. Using a characteristic map to translate the character theory of the finite unitary groups into the…
