In this series of papers, we investigate properties of a finite group which are determined by its low degree irreducible representations over a number field $F$, i.e. its representations on matrix rings $\operatorname{M}_n(D)$ with $n \leq…

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group, $N\geq 1$ and $L>0$. The random geometric graph on $G$ is the random graph $\Gamma(N,L)$ whose vertices are $N$ random points $g_1,\ldots,g_N$ chosen under the Haar measure of $G$, and whose edges are the…

Garland introduced a vanishing criterion for a characteristic zero cohomology group of a locally finite and locally connected simplicial complex. The criterion is based on the spectral gaps of the graph Laplacians of the links of faces and…

Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean locally compact field, let $G$ be a split connected reductive group over $F$. For a parabolic subgroup $Q\subset G$ and a ring $L$ we consider the $G$-representation on the $L$-module$$(*)\quad\quad\quad\quad…

This article considers $G$-Anosov representations of a fixed closed oriented Riemann surface $\Sigma$ of genus at least $2$. Here, $G$ is the Lie group $\text{PSp}(2n,\mathbb{R}$), $\text{PSO}(n,n)$ or $\text{PSO}(n,n+1)$. It proves that…

For $g\geq 2$, let $\Gamma\subset\mathrm{Sp}(2g,\mathbb{R})$ be a discrete subgroup, which is either a cocompact subgroup or an arithmetic subgroup without torsion elements, and let $\mathbb{H}_{g}$ denote the Siegel upper half space of…

In view of A. Andreotti and H. Grauert's vanishing theorem for q-complete domains in C^n, (Th\'eor\`eme de finitude pour la cohomologie des espaces complexes, Bull. Soc. Math. France 90 (1962), 193--259,) we re-prove a vanishing result by…

When $G$ is a complex reductive algebraic group and $G/K$ is a reductive symmetric space, the decomposition of $\C[G/K]$ as a $K$-module was obtained (in a non-constructive way) by Richardson, generalizing the celebrated result of…

Let $G$ be a real Lie group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$. Given a unitary representation $\pi$ of $G$, one obtains by differentiation a representation $d\pi$ of $\mathfrak g$ by unbounded, skew-adjoint operators. Representations of…

A differential form vanishing on the tangent space at smooth points of a reduced embedded analytic germ is called conormal. For proving that a conormal one--form of a hypersurface vanishes at its singularities we state a Bertini--type…

We study the derived tensor product of the representation rings of subgroups of a given compact Lie group G. That is, given two such subgroups H_1 and H_2, we study the tensor product of the associated representation rings R(H_1) and R(H_2)…

Given two algebraic groups $G$, $H$ over a field $k$, we investigate the representability of the functor of morphisms (of schemes) $\mathbf{Hom}(G,H)$ and the subfunctor of homomorphisms (of algebraic groups) $\mathbf{Hom}_{\rm gp}(G,H)$.…

Let G be a connected reductive algebraic group acting on a scheme X. Let R(G) denote the representation ring of G, and let I be the ideal in R(G) of virtual representations of rank 0. Let G(X) (resp. G(G,X)) denote the Grothendieck group of…

We study three fundamental topics in the representation theory of disconnected algebraic groups whose identity component is reductive: (i) the classification of irreducible representations; (ii) the existence and properties of Weyl and dual…

The main results in this thesis deal with the representation growth of certain classes of groups. In chapter $1$ we present the required preliminary theory. In chapter $2$ we introduce the Congruence Subgroup Problem for an algebraic group…

For the case of algebraic curves - compact Riemann surfaces - it is shown that de Rham cohomology group $H^{1}_{\mathrm{dR}}(X,\mathbb{C})$ of a genus $g$ Riemann surface $X$ has a natural structure of a symplectic vector space. Every…

Let $\Sigma_{g}$ be a closed surface of genus $g\geq 2$ and $\Gamma_{g}$ denote the fundamental group of $\Sigma_{g}$. We establish a generalization of Voiculescu's theorem on the asymptotic $*$-freeness of Haar unitary matrices from free…

In this manuscript we consider the extent to which an irreducible representation for a reductive Lie group can be realized as the sheaf cohomolgy of an equivariant holomorphic line bundle defined on an open invariant submanifold of a…

A Hom-group G is a nonassociative version of a group where associativity, invertibility, and unitality are twisted by a map \alpha: G\longrightarrow G. Introducing the Hom-group algebra KG, we observe that Hom-groups are providing examples…

In some previous work, we defined an invariant of genus zero nonabelian Hodge spaces taking the form of a diagram. Here, enriching the diagram by fission data to obtain a refined invariant, the enriched tree, including a partition of the…
