This article discusses the modular representation theory of finite groups of Lie type from the viewpoint of Broue's abelian defect group conjecture. We discuss both the defining characteristic case, the inspiration for Alperin's weight…

We investigate finite non-Abelian simple groups $G$ for which the projective cover of the trivial module coincides with the permutation module on a subgroup and classify all cases unless $G$ is of Lie type in defining characteristic.

We use the theory of canonical models of Shimura varieties to describe the projective limit of the curves Y(N), all N, and its automorphism group. In particular we prove that the Galois group of Q(CM) over Q is an extension of a certain…

Letting tau denote the inverse transpose automorphism of GL(n,q), a formula is obtained for the number of g in GL(n,q) so that gg^{tau} is equal to a given element h. This generalizes a result of Gow and Macdonald for the special case that…

Let $V$ be a two-dimensional vector space over a field $\mathbb F$ of characteristic not $2$ or $3$. We show there is a canonical surjection $\nu$ from the set of suitably generic commutative algebra structures on $V$ modulo the action of…

We compute the Grothendieck group of certain 2-Calabi--Yau triangulated categories appearing naturally in the study of the link between quiver representations and Fomin--Zelevinsky's cluster algebras. In this setup, we also prove a…

Let $\mathbb F$ be a finite field. Consider a direct sum $V$ of an infinite number of copies of $\mathbb F$, consider the dual space $V^\diamond$, i.~e., the direct product of an infinite number of copies of $\mathbb F$. Consider the direct…

Let F be a non-Archimedean locally compact field with residual characteristic p, let G be an inner form of GL(n,F) for a positive integer n and let R be an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from p. When R has…

We give a microlocal description of the Aubert--Zelevinsky involution for all unipotent representations of all inner forms of simple adjoint unramified $p$-adic groups. Via the realization of enhanced $L$-parameters as perverse sheaves, we…

We first generalize classical Auslander-Reiten duality for isolated singularities to cover singularities with a one-dimensional singular locus. We then define the notion of CT modules for non-isolated singularities and we show that these…

In this thesis we will study matrix models with discrete gauge group $S_N$. We will put these matrix models into a generalized Schur-Weyl duality framework where dual algebras, known as partition algebras, emerge. These form generalizations…

In the present paper, we give a q-analogue of the Grothendieck conjecture on p-curvatures for q-difference equations defined over the field of rational function K(x), where K is a finite extension of a field of rational functions k(q), with…

Conjectures are given for Hilbert series related to polynomial invariants of finite general linear groups, one for invariants mod Frobenius powers of the irrelevant ideal, one for cofixed spaces of polynomials.

The conjecture of Serre referred in the title is the one about modularity of odd Galois representations into GL(2,F) where F is a finite field of characteristic p. We present an analogous conjecture where GL(2) is replaced by GL(n). We…

We study a class of duality transformations in generalised Z(2) gauge theories and Ising models on two- and three-dimensional compact lattices. The theories are interpreted algebraically in terms of the structure constants of a…

The so called $q$-triplets were conjectured in 2004 and then found in nature in 2005. A relevant further step was achieved in 2005 when the possibility was advanced that they could reflect an entire infinite algebra based on combinations of…

This is a survey of results and conjectures on mirror symmetry phenomena in the non-Abelian Hodge theory of a curve. We start with the conjecture of Hausel-Thaddeus which claims that certain Hodge numbers of moduli spaces of flat SL(n,C)…

Consider a non-CM elliptic curve $E$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. For each prime $\ell$, there is a representation $\rho_{E,\ell}: G \to GL_2(\mathbb{F}_\ell)$ that describes the Galois action on the $\ell$-torsion points of $E$, where $G$ is…

We study irreducible spherical unitary representations of the Drinfeld double of a $q$-deformation of a connected simply connected compact Lie group, which can be considered as a quantum analogue of the complexification of the Lie group. In…
