The spaces of triangulations of a given manifold have been widely studied. The celebrated theorem of Pachner~\cite{Pachner} says that any two triangulations of a given manifold can be connected by a sequence of bistellar moves, or Pachner…

We show that representations of the loop braid group arise from Aharonov-Bohm like effects in finite 2-group (3+1)-dimensional topological higher gauge theory. For this we introduce a minimal categorification of biracks, which we call…

Lorentz's group represented by the hypercomplex system of numbers, which is based on dirac matrices, is investigated. This representation is similar to the space rotation representation by quaternions. This representation has several…

For any n>3, we give a family of finite dimensional irreducible representations of the braid group B_n. Moreover, we give a subfamily parametrized by 0<m<n of dimension the combinatoric number (n,m). The representation obtained in the case…

We introduce a representation of compact 3-manifolds without spherical boundary components via (regular) 4-colored graphs, which turns out to be very convenient for computer aided study and tabulation. Our construction is a direct…

In this study, we introduce the generalized Tribonacci hyperbolic spinors and properties of this new special numbers system by the generalized Tribonacci numbers, which are one of the most general form of the third-order recurrence…

Let ${\cal P}$ be the set of palindromes occurring in the Fibonacci sequence. In this note, we establish three structures of $\mathcal{P}$ and and discuss their properties: cylinder structure, chain structure and recursive structure. Using…

In this third paper in a series on type I Howe duality for finite fields, we give a complete description of the restriction of the oscillator representation over a finite field to products of dual pairs of symplectic and orthogonal groups…

Consider a pseudogroup on (C,0) generated by two local diffeomorphisms having analytic conjugacy classes a priori fixed in Diff(C,0). We show that a generic pseudogroup as above is such that every point has (possibly trivial) cyclic…

We consider a question of Edjvet and Vdovina concerning which groups defined by special presentations are large. For each integer $n \ge 3$, we construct an $n$-generator one-relator presentation whose star graph is the complete bipartite…

The problem of classifying, upto isometry (or similarity), the orientable spherical, Euclidean and hyperbolic 3-manifolds that arise by identifying the faces of a Platonic solid is formulated in the language of Coxeter groups. In the…

We give several new positive finite presentations for the pure braid group that are easy to remember and simple in form. All of our presentations involve a metric on the punctured disc so that the punctures are arranged "convexly", which is…

Fock and Goncharov introduced cluster ensembles, providing a framework for coordinates on varieties of surface representations into Lie groups, as well as a complete construction for groups of type $A_n$. Later, Zickert, Le, and Ip…

The existence of a topological double-covering for the $GL(n,R)$ and diffeomorphism groups is reviewed. These groups do not have finite-dimensional faithful representations. An explicit construction and the classification of all…

We go back and forth between, on the one hand, presentations of arithmetic and Kac-Moody groups and, on the other hand, presentations of profinite groups, deducing along the way new results on both.

This paper is a significant contribution to a general programme aimed to classify all projective irreducible representations of finite simple groups over an algebraically closed field, in which the image of at least one element is…

We consider three families of groups: the Bianchi groups SL(2,O) where O is the ring of integers of an imaginary, quadratic field; the groups SL*(2,O) where O is a *-order of a definite, rational quaternion algebra with an orthogonal…

We prove that every finitely generated group with recursive aspherical presentation embeds into a group with finite aspherical presentation. This and several known facts about groups and manifolds imply that there exists a 4-dimensional…

These are lecture notes prepared for a minicourse given at the Cimpa Research School "Algebraic and geometric aspects of representation theory", held in Curitiba, Brazil in March 2013. The purpose of the course is to provide an introduction…

Let X be a 2-sphere with n punctures. We classify all conjugacy classes of Zariski-dense representations $$\rho: \pi_1(X)\to SL_2(\mathbb{C})$$ with finite orbit under the mapping class group of X, such that the local monodromy at one or…
