We find the irreducible decomposition of the Weil representation of the unitary group $\mathrm{U}_{2n}(A)$, where $A$ is a ramified quadratic extension of a finite, commutative, local, principal ideal ring $R$ and the nilpotency degree of…
This paper develops from scratch a theory of Galois rings and orders over arbitrary fields. Our approach is different from others in the literature in that there is no non-modularity assumption. We prove, when the field is algebraically…
The description of irreducible finite dimensional representations of finite dimensional solvable Lie superalgebras over complex numbers given by V.~Kac is refined. In reality these representations are not just induced from a polarization…
On a real ($\mathbb F=\mathbb R$) or complex ($\mathbb F=\mathbb C$) analytic connected 2-manifold $M$ with empty boundary consider two vector fields $X,Y$. We say that $Y$ {\it tracks} $X$ if $[Y,X]=fX$ for some continuous function…
We classify all triples $(G,V,H)$ such that $SL_n(q)\leq G\leq GL_n(q)$, $V$ is a representation of $G$ of dimension greater than one over an algebraically closed field $\FF$ of characteristic coprime to $q$, and $H$ is a proper subgroup of…
We study generic representations of general linear groups over a finite ring R with coefficients in a field k in which the cardinality of R is invertible, that is functors from finitely-generated projective R-modules to k-vector spaces. We…
In the paper we show that any irreducible representation of a finitely generated nilpotent group $G$ over a finitely generated field $F$ of characteristic zero is induced from a primitive representation of some subgroup of $G$.
This paper is concerned with absolutely irreducible quasisimple subgroups $G$ of a finite general linear group $GL_d(\mathbb{F}_q)$ for which some element $g\in G$ of prime order $r$, in its action on the natural module…
We present some results about the irreducible representations appearing in the exterior algebra $\Lambda \mathfrak{g}$, where $ \mathfrak{g}$ is a simple Lie algebra over $\mathbb{C}$. For Lie algebras of type $B$, $C$ or $D$ we prove that…
Let G|V, G connected, reductive over C, be a stable polar representation in the sense of [DK], satisfying some mild additional hypotheses. Given a G-equivariant rank one local system L on the general fiber of the quotient map f : V --> V/G,…
Let p be a prime. Uniform pro-p groups play a central role in the theory of p-adic Lie groups. Indeed, a topological group admits the structure of a p-adic Lie group if and only if it contains an open pro-p subgroup which is uniform.…
Any sufficiently often differentiable curve in the orbit space $V/G$ of a real finite-dimensional orthogonal representation $G \to O(V)$ of a finite group $G$ admits a differentiable lift into the representation space $V$ with locally…
We extend the construction of multiplicative representations for a free group G introduced by Kuhn and Steger (Isr. J., (144) 2004) in such a way that the new class Mult(G) so defined is stable under taking the finite direct sum, under…
Let $F$ be a number field, let $N\geq 3$ be an integer, and let $k$ be a finite field of characteristic $\ell$. We show that if $\rb:G_F\longrightarrow GL_N(k)$ is a continuous representation with image of $\rb$ containing $SL_N(k)$ then,…
The work of Bernstein-Zelevinsky and Zelevinsky gives a good understanding of irreducible subquotients of a reducible principal series representation of $GL_n(F)$, $F$ a $p$-adic field (without specifying their multiplicities which is done…
Let pi be a regular, algebraic, essentially self-dual cuspidal automorphic representation of GL_n(A_F), where F is a totally real field and n is at most 5. We show that for all primes l, the l-adic Galois representations associated to pi…
We use algebraic geometry to study the anomaly-free representations of an arbitrary gauge Lie algebra for 4-dimensional spacetime fermions. For irreducible representations, the problem reduces to studying the Lie algebras $\mathfrak{su}_n$…
Let $V$ be a finite-dimensional vector space over a finite field, and suppose $G \leq \Gamma \mathrm{L}(V)$ is a group with a unique subnormal quasisimple subgroup $E(G)$ that is absolutely irreducible on $V$. A base for $G$ is a set of…
It is generally believed (and for the most part is probably true) that Lie theory, in contrast to the characteristic zero case, is insufficient to tackle the representation theory of algebraic groups over prime characteristic fields.…
Let $f:V\times V\to F$ be a totally arbitrary bilinear form defined on a finite dimensional vector space $V$ over a a field $F$, and let $L(f)$ be the subalgebra of $\gl(V)$ of all skew-adjoint endomorphisms relative to $f$. Provided $F$ is…
