Composing two representations of the general linear groups gives rise to Littlewood's (outer) plethysm. On the level of characters, this poses the question of finding the Schur expansion of the plethysm of two Schur functions. A…

In this paper, we study weight representations over the Schr{\"o}dinger Lie algebra $\mathfrak{s}_n$ for any positive integer $n$. It turns out that the algebra $\mathfrak{s}_n$ can be realized by polynomial differential operators. Using…

We obtain the decomposition of the tensor space $\mathfrak{sl}_n^{\otimes k}$ as a module for $\mathfrak{sl}_n$, find an explicit formula for the multiplicities of its irreducible summands, and (when $n \ge 2k$) describe the centralizer…

In this paper we consider the Hecke algebra $\mathcal {H}$ associated to an extended affine Weyl group of type $\widetilde{B_2}$. We give some interesting formulas on $C_{rt}S_{\lambda}$, which imply some relations between the…

In the past few years, successive improvements of the asymptotic complexity of square matrix multiplication have been obtained by developing novel methods to analyze the powers of the Coppersmith-Winograd tensor, a basic construction…

We give criteria for real, complex and quaternionic representations to define s-representations, focusing on exceptional Lie algebras defined by spin representations. As applications, we obtain the classification of complex representations…

Consider the symmetric group $S_n$ acting as a reflection group on the polynomial ring $k[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$, where $k$ is a field such that Char$(k)$ does not divide $n!$. We use Higher Specht polynomials to construct matrix factorizations…

This is an introduction to the group algebras of the symmetric groups, written for a quarter-long graduate course. After recalling the definition of group algebras (and monoid algebras) in general, as well as basic properties of…

Let Lie(n) be the Lie module of the symmetric group S_n over a field F of characteristic p>0, that is, Lie(n) is the left ideal of FS_n generated by the Dynkin-Specht-Wever element. We study the problem of parametrizing non-projective…

An important problem from invariant theory is to describe the subspace of a tensor power of a representation invariant under the action of the group. According to Weyl's classic, the first main (later: 'fundamental') theorem of invariant…

We study matrix coefficients of the unitary (and also the completely bounded) representations of SL(2;R) and its universal covering group. We describe the asymptotic distribution of column vectors in terms of Whittaker functions, exhibiting…

We study solutions of a quadratic matrix equation arising in Riemannian geometry. Let $S$ be a real symmetric $n\times n$-matrix with zeros on the diagonal and let $\theta$ be a real number. We construct nonzero solutions $(S,\theta)$ of…

We give a complete description of the finite-dimensional irreducible representations of the Yangian associated with the orthosymplectic Lie superalgebra $\frak{osp}_{1|2}$. The representations are parameterized by monic polynomials in one…

For any involution $\sigma$ of a semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$, one constructs a non-reductive Lie algebra $\mathfrak k$, which is called a $\mathbb Z_2$-contraction of $\mathfrak g$. In this paper, we attack the problem of…

Suppose $\ell$ is a prime number, $\ell >3$, $K$ is a field that is an unramified finite extension of the field $\Q_\ell$ of $\ell$-adic numbers, and $G$ is a finite group that is a semi-direct product of a normal $\ell'$-subgroup $H$ and a…

We study, in three parts, degree sequences of k-families (or k-uniform hypergraphs) and shifted k-families. The first part collects for the first time in one place, various implications such as: Threshold implies Uniquely Realizable implies…

The algebra of monodromy matrices for sl(n) trigonometric R-matrices is studied. It is shown that a generic finite-dimensional polynomial irreducible representation of this algebra is equivalent to a tensor product of L-operators.…

For a finite-dimensional representation V of a group G we introduce and study the notion of a Lie element in the group algebra k[G]. The set L(V) \subset k[G] of Lie elements is a Lie algebra and a G-module acting on the original…

An introduction to $N=2$ rigid and local supersymmetry is given. The construction of the actions of vector multiplets is reviewed, defining special K\"ahler manifolds. Symplectic transformations lead to either isometries or symplectic…

In this paper, we provide combinatorial proofs for certain partition identities which arise naturally in the context of Langlands' beyond endoscopy proposal. These partition identities motivate an explicit plethysm expansion of…
