We use quantum invariants to define an analytic family of representations for the mapping class group of a punctured surface. The representations depend on a complex number A with |A| <= 1 and act on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space.…

We prove the finiteness of Selmer groups attached to lifts of certain 2-dimensional mod p representations of the absolute Galois group of Q. The mod p representation can be either even or odd. The lifts considered are the ones that were…

We prove that curve complexes of surfaces are finitely rigid: for every orientable surface S of finite topological type, we identify a finite subcomplex X of the curve complex C(S) such that every locally injective simplicial map from X…

Given a connected real Lie group and a contractible homogeneous proper $G$--space $X$ furnished with a $G$--invariant volume form, a real valued volume can be assigned to any representation $\rho\colon \pi_1(M)\to G$ for any oriented closed…

Let $\mathcal G$ denote the space of finitely generated marked groups. For any finitely generated group $G$, we construct a continuous, injective map $f$ from the space of subgroups $Sub(G)$ to $\mathcal G$ that sends conjugate subgroups to…

A global packet may simultaneously contain an automorphic representation and a non-automorphic representation. The global $\mathcal S$-group is expected, and known in some cases, to specify the automorphic representations in each global…

Given a subgroup H of a finite group G, we begin a systematic study of the partial representations of G that restrict to global representations of H. After adapting several results from [DEP00] (which correspond to the case where H is…

A finite-dimensional linear representation of a group or an algebra may be regarded as a map into a space of matrices, endowing abstract elements with coordinates, and encoding algebraic operations as matrix products. With this in mind, we…

We prove that the space of dominant/non-constant holomorphic mappings from a product of hyperbolic Riemann surfaces of finite type into certain hyperbolic manifolds with universal cover a bounded domain is a finite set.

In this paper we study the images of certain families $\{\rho_{\pi,\ell} \}_\ell$ of $G_2$-valued Galois representations of $\mbox{Gal}(\overline{F}/F)$ associated to $L$-algebraic regular, self-dual, cuspidal automorphic representations…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely presented group and $G$ a linear algebraic group over $\mathbb{R}$. A representation $\rho:\Gamma\rightarrow G(\mathbb{R})$ can be seen as an $\mathbb{R}$-point of the representation variety $\mathfrak{R}(\Gamma,…

Let $G$ be a group and let $\rho\colon G\to\operatorname{Sym}(V)$ be a permutation representation of $G$ on a set $V$. We prove that there is a faithful $G$-coalgebra $C$ such that $G$ arises as the image of the restriction of…

We construct Zariski-dense surface subgroups in infinitely many commensurability classes of uniform lattices of the split real Lie groups $\operatorname{SL}(n,\mathbb{R})$, $\operatorname{Sp}(2n,\mathbb{R})$, $\operatorname{SO}(k+1,k)$, and…

We introduce the notion of a neutral representation of a finite group, or finite group scheme, $G$; a representation $V$ with the property that if a gerbe $\mathcal{G}$ over a field $k$ that is a form of the classifying stack $\mathcal{B}…

We study the representations of the commutator subgroup K_{n} of the braid group B_{n} into a finite group . This is done through a symbolic dynamical system. Some experimental results enable us to compute the number of subgroups of K_{n}…

First, I construct an isomorphism between the categories of (topological) groups of nilpotency class 2 with 2-divisible center and (topological) Lie rings of nilpotency class 2 with 2-divisible center. That isomorphism allows us to…

Let $$1 \to H \to G \to Q \to 1$$ be an exact sequence where $H= \pi_1(S)$ is the fundamental group of a closed surface $S$ of genus greater than one, $G$ is hyperbolic and $Q$ is finitely generated free. The aim of this paper is to provide…

Let G be a real or complex linear algebraic reductive group. Let H and F be reductive subgroups. We study the natural H action on G/F. The main theorem of this note shows that generic H orbits are closed. This theorem is then applied to…
