We provide results on the smoothness of normalisers in connected reductive algebraic groups $G$ over fields $k$ of positive characteristic $p$. Specifically we we give bounds on $p$ which guarantee that normalisers of subalgebras of…

Given a reductive group $G$, we give a description of the abelian category of $G$-equivariant $D$-modules on $\mathfrak{g}=\mathrm{Lie}(G)$, which specializes to Lusztig's generalized Springer correspondence upon restriction to the…

Let $\frak g$ be a reductive Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$. In this paper, we study the representations of $\frak g$ with a $p$-character $\chi$ of standard Levi form associated with a given subset…

In this paper we study representations of skew group algebras $\Lambda G$, where $\Lambda$ is a connected, basic, finite-dimensional algebra (or a locally finite graded algebra) over an algebraically closed field $k$ with characteristic $p…

We construct all finite irreducible modules over Lie conformal superalgebras of type W and S.

First, we establish the relation between the associated varieties of modules over Kac-Moody algebras \hat{g} and those over affine W-algebras. Second, we prove the Feigin-Frenkel conjecture on the singular supports of G-integrable…

Let $G$ be a simply connected, nilpotent Lie group with Lie algebra $\gee$. The group $G$ acts on the dual space $\gee^*$ by the coadjoint action. %% which partitions $\gee^*$ into coadjoint orbits. By the orbit method of Kirillov, the…

We prove that the classical $W$-algebra associated to a nilpotent orbit in a simple Lie-algebra can be constructed by preforming bihamiltonian, Drinfeld-Sokolov or Dirac reductions. We conclude that the classical $W$-algebra depends only on…

In a series of papers \cite{KS,MR}, Krawitz, Milanov, Ruan, and Shen have verified the so-called Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau (LG/CY) correspondence for simple elliptic singularities $E_N^{(1,1)}$ ($N=6,7,8$). As a byproduct it was also…

Recently Alday, Gaiotto and Tachikawa proposed a conjecture relating 4-dimensional super-symmetric gauge theory for a gauge group G with certain 2-dimensional conformal field theory. This conjecture implies the existence of certain…

We define analogues of Verma modules for finite W-algebras. By the usual ideas of highest weight theory, this is a first step towards the classification of finite dimensional irreducible modules. Motivated by known results in type A, we…

Let $G$ and $\tilde G$ be connected complex reductive Lie groups, $G$ semisimple. Let $\Lambda^+$ be the monoid of dominant weights for a positive root system $\Delta^+$, and let $l(w)$ be the length of a Weyl group element $w$. Let…

We extend the notion of semi-infinite cohomology of Lie algebras to include cases where the Lie algebra does not admit a semi-infinite structure but satisfies a mild condition. Our construction clarifies the definition of affine W-algebras…

Let $\mathfrak g$ be a simple Lie algebra, $\mathfrak b$ a fixed Borel subalgebra, and $W$ the Weyl group of $\mathfrak g$. In this note, we study a relationship between the maximal abelian ideals of $\mathfrak b$ and the minimal inversion…

We study modules for the divided power algebra $D$ in a single variable over a commutative noetherian ring $k$. Our first result states that $D$ is a coherent ring. In fact, we show that there is a theory of Gr\"obner bases for finitely…

Let $A$ be a $Z$-graded associative algebra and let $\rho$ be an irreducible $N$-graded representation of $A$ on $W$ with finite-dimensional homogeneous subspaces. Then it is proved that $\rho(\tilde{A})=gl_{J}(W)$, where $\tilde{A}$ is the…

We introduce the partial reductions and inverse Hamiltonian reductions between affine $\mathcal{W}$-algebras along the closure relations of associated nilpotent orbits in the case of $\mathfrak{sl}_4$, fulfilling all the missing…

Let $\mathcal{W}(b)$ be a class of free Lie conformal algebras of rank $2$ with $\mathbb{C}[\partial]$-basis ${L,H}$ and relations \begin{eqnarray*} [L_\lambda L]=(\partial+2\lambda)L,\ \ [L_\lambda H]=\big(\partial+(1-b)\lambda\big)H, \ \…

Let $p$ be a prime number, and $G$ a compact $p$-adic Lie group. We recall that the Iwasawa algebra $\Lambda(G)$ is defined to be the completed group ring of $G$ over the ring of $p$-adic integers. Interesting examples of finitely generated…

The first part of this dissertation defines "dependently typed algebraic theories", which are a strict subclass of the generalised algebraic theories (GATs) of Cartmell. We characterise dependently typed algebraic theories as finitary…
