Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $0$. We consider principal bundles over a $k$-scheme with reductive structure group (not necessarily of finite type). It is showm in particular that for $k$ algebraically closed there exists on any…

We propose a definition of characters in the context of Schneider-Teitelbaum's theory of locally analytic representations of p-adic reductive groups. This character will be a function on a compact subgroup of a maximal torus of the…

Algebraic geometry for groups and Lie algebraic has been recently defined and studied by many authors on the purpose to study set defined by algebraic equations on abstract groups and Lie algebras. The purpose of this paper is to present a…

This paper contains a survey of recent developments in investigation of word equations in simple matrix groups and polynomial equations in simple (associative and Lie) matrix algebras along with some new results on the image of word maps on…

This note provides a formula for the character of the Lie algebra of the fundamental group of a surface, viewed as a module over the symplectic group.

We establish vanishing results for the first cohomology group of nilpotent groups and Lie rings when the submodule of invariants is trivial. Our results are obtained within a model-theoretic setting, namely for structures that are definable…

This thesis studies arithmetic of linear algebraic groups. It involves studying the properties of linear algebraic groups defined over global fields, local fields and finite fields, or more generally the study of the linear algebraic groups…

This survey article has two components. The first part gives a gentle introduction to Serre's notion of $G$-complete reducibility, where $G$ is a connected reductive algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field. The second…

Let $G$ be a finite group and let $k$ be a sufficiently large finite field. Let $R(G)$ denote the character ring of $G$ (i.e. the Grothendieck ring of the category of ${\mathbb{C}}G$-modules). We study the structure and the representations…

We determine when an arithmetic subgroup of a reductive group defined over a global function field is of type FP_\infty by comparing its large-scale geometry to the large-scale geometry of lattices in real semisimple Lie groups.

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…

This is an introduction to the finite groups, with focus on the groups of permutations and reflections, and more generally, on the finite groups of unitary matrices. We first discuss the basics of group theory, featuring the cyclic,…

The aim of this paper is to give an exposition of recent progress on the determination of the unitarizable Langlands quotients of minimal principal series for reductive groups over the real or p-adic fields in characteristic 0.

This is an introduction to the Atlas of Lie Groups and Representations software, for computing representation and structure theory of real reductive groups. The user is led through the basic commands of the software, via numerous examples.…

A connected algebraic group in characteristic 0 is uniquely determined by its Lie algebra. In this paper an algorithm is given for constructing an algebraic group in characteristic 0, given its Lie algebra. Using this an algorithm is…

In a 1983 paper the author has established a (decategorified) Satake equivalence for affine Hecke algebras. In this paper we give new proofs for some results of that paper, one based on the theory of J-rings and one based on the known…

We show that the classification of simple finite group schemes over an algebraically closed field reduces to the classification of abstract simple finite groups and of simple restricted Lie algebras in positive characteristic. Both these…

We present an application of Hodge theory towards the study of irreducible unitary representations of reductive Lie groups. We describe a conjecture about such representations and discuss some progress towards its proof.

We survey some results on the structure of the groups which are definable in theories of fields involved in the applications of model theory to Diophantine geometry. We focus more particularly on separably closed fields of finite degree of…

We construct a supercharacter theory for the group of invertible elements of a reduced algebra. For the case of the triangular group, we obtain the formula for values of supercharacters on superclasses.
