In this paper we introduce and develop the theory of FI-modules. We apply this theory to obtain new theorems about: - the cohomology of the configuration space of n distinct ordered points on an arbitrary (connected, oriented) manifold -…

Representation stability is a theory describing a way in which a sequence of representations of different groups is related, and essentially contains a finite amount of information. Starting with Church-Ellenberg-Farb's theory of…

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…

In this paper we apply the theory of finitely generated FI-modules developed by Church, Ellenberg and Farb to certain sequences of rational cohomology groups. Our main examples are the cohomology of the moduli space of n-pointed curves, the…

Consider the polynomial ring in countably infinitely many variables over a field of characteristic zero, together with its natural action of the infinite general linear group G. We study the algebraic and homological properties of finitely…

In this paper we study representation theory of the category FI$^m$ introduced by Gadish which is a product of copies of the category FI, and show that quite a few interesting representational and homological properties of FI can be…

Recent work of An, Drummond-Cole, and Knudsen, as well as the author, has shown that the homology groups of configuration spaces of graphs can be equipped with the structure of a finitely generated graded module over a polynomial ring. In…

In this work we study a kind of coherence condition on FI_G-modules, which generalizes the usual notion of finite generation. We prove that a module is coherent, in the appropriate sense, if and only if its generators, as well as its…

Church-Ellenberg-Farb used the language of FI-modules to prove that the cohomology of certain sequences of hyperplane arrangements with S_n-actions satisfies representation stability. Here we lift their results to the level of the…

We introduce FI-algebras over a commutative ring $K$ and the category of FI-modules over an FI-algebra. Such a module may be considered as a family of invariant modules over compatible varying $K$-algebras. FI-modules over $K$ correspond to…

This is a sequel to the paper [Cas]. Here, we extend the methods of Farb-Wolfson using the theory of FI_G-modules to obtain stability of equivariant Galois representations of the etale cohomology of orbit configuration spaces. We establish…

The groups $\Gamma_{n,s}$ are defined in terms of homotopy equivalences of certain graphs, and are natural generalisations of $\mbox{Out}(F_n)$ and $\mbox{Aut}(F_n)$. They have appeared frequently in the study of free group automorphisms,…

We study GL-equivariant modules over the infinite variable polynomial ring $S = k[x_1, x_2, ..., x_n, ...]$ with $k$ an infinite field of characteristic $p > 0$. We extend many of Sam--Snowden's far-reaching results from characteristic zero…

Let K be a complete discretely valued field of mixed characteristics (0, p) with perfect residue field. One of the central objects of study in p-adic Hodge theory is the category of continuous representations of the absolute Galois group of…

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…

Let G be a finite group acting tamely on a proper reduced curve C over an algebraically closed field. We study the G-module structure on the cohomology groups of a G-equivariant locally free sheaf F on C, and give formulas of…

First we study the Gorenstein cohomological dimension ${\rm Gcd}_RG$ of groups $G$ over coefficient rings $R$, under changes of groups and rings; a characterization for finiteness of ${\rm Gcd}_RG$ is given. Some results in literature…

Let $G$ be a unipotent group over a field of characteristic $p > 0$. The theory of character sheaves on $G$ was initiated by V. Drinfeld and developed jointly with D. Boyarchenko. They also introduced the notion of $\mathbb{L}$-packets of…

We construct analogues of FI-modules where the role of the symmetric group is played by the general linear groups and the symplectic groups over finite rings and prove basic structural properties such as Noetherianity. Applications include…

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…
