Over any non-Archimedean local field of characteristic not equal to $2$, Takeda and Wood constructed types for the two blocks containing the even and odd Weil representations of the metaplectic group $\tilde{G}$, and identified the…

Let G be either an orthogonal, a symplectic or a unitary group over a local field F and let P = MN be a maximal parabolic subgroup. Then the Levi subgroup M is the product of a group of the same type as G and a general linear group, acting…

Following the literature, a group $G$ is called a group of central type if $G$ has an irreducible character that vanishes on $G\setminus Z(G)$. Motivated by this definition, we say that a character $\chi\in {\rm Irr}(G)$ has central type if…

Let G be a finite non-abelian simple group and let p be a prime. We classify all pairs (G,p) such that the sum of the complex irreducible character degrees of G is greater than the index of a Sylow p-subgroup of G. Our classification…

Let $ G $ be a connected semisimple Lie group with finite center. We prove a formula for the inner product of two cuspidal automorphic forms on $ G $ that are given by Poincar\'e series of $ K $-finite matrix coefficients of an integrable…

This paper is a contribution to the study of the subgroup structure of exceptional algebraic groups over algebraically closed fields of arbitrary characteristic. Following Serre, a closed subgroup of a semisimple algebraic group $G$ is…

In this paper we consider finite groups G satisfying the following condition: G has two columns in its character table which differ by exactly one entry. It turns out that such groups exist and they are exactly the finite groups with a…

We complete the study of characters on higher rank semisimple lattices initiated in [BH19,BBHP20], the missing case being the case of lattices in higher rank simple algebraic groups in arbitrary characteristics. More precisely, we…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $p$ be a prime number dividing the order of $G$. An irreducible character $\chi$ of $G$ is called a quasi $p$-Steinberg character if $\chi(g)$ is nonzero for every $p$-regular element $g$ in $G$. In this paper,…

Let G be a connected reductive group defined over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p > 0. The purpose of this paper is two-fold. First, when p is a good prime, we give a new proof of the ``order formula'' of D. Testerman…

Let $G$ be a group acting on a field $L$, and suppose that $L /L^G$ is a finite extension. We show that the category of semilinear representations of $G$ over $L$ can be described in terms of the category of linear representations of $H$,…

Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean local field, $A$ be a central simple $F$-algebra, and $G$ be the multiplicative group of $A$. It is known that for every irreducible supercuspidal representation $\pi$, there exists a $[G, \pi]_{G}$-type $(J,…

In this paper, we study intertwining operators between subregular Whittaker modules of $\gl_N$ generalizing, on the one hand, the classical exchange construction of dynamical quantum groups, on the other hand, earlier results for principal…

We complete the proof of the Howe duality conjecture in the theory of local theta correspondence by treating the remaining case of quaternionic dual pairs in arbitrary residual characteristic.

We point out that results of Shimizu on internal characters imply a useful non-semisimple variant of the categorical Verlinde formula for factorisable finite tensor categories. When combined with results on pseudo-trace functions by…

Let $G$ be a non-elementary discrete subgroup of $\mathrm{Sp}(2,1)$. We show that if the sum of diagonal entries of each element of $G$ is a complex number, then $G$ is conjugate to a subgroup of $\mathrm{U}(2,1)$.

We study the decomposition of certain reducible characters of classical groups as the sum of irreducible ones. Let ${\mathbf G}$ be an algebraic group of classical type with defining characteristic $p>0$, $\mu$ a dominant weight and $W$ the…

We consider the rigid monoidal category of character sheaves on a smooth commutative group scheme $G$ over a finite field $k$ and expand the scope of the function-sheaf dictionary from connected commutative algebraic groups to this setting.…

Let $K$ be a $p$-adically closed field and $G$ a group interpretable in $K$. We show that if $G$ is definably semisimple (i.e. $G$ has no definable infinite normal abelian subgroups) then there exists a finite normal subgroup $H$ such that…
