We describe how traceless projection of tensors of a given rank can be constructed in a closed form. On the way to this goal we invoke the representation theory of the Brauer algebra and the related Schur-Weyl dualities. The resulting…

If G is a finite group, we have proposed new conjectures on the interaction between different primes and their corresponding Brauer principal blocks. In this paper, we give strong support to the validity of these conjectures.

This is an English translation of the author's 1989 note in Russian, published in a collection "Arithmetic and Geometry of Varieties" (V.E. Voskresenski, ed.), Kuibyshev State University, Kuibyshev, 1989, pp. 57--67. Let $X$ be be an…

We prove that finite-dimensional Jacobian algebras associated with non-degenerate quivers with potentials satisfy the stable Brauer-Thrall II' conjecture. In particular, this implies that the brick Brauer-Thrall II' conjecture (also known…

In 2005 Wolfgang Willems put forward a conjecture proposing a lower bound for the sum of squares of the degrees of the irreducible $p$-Brauer characters of a finite group $G$. We prove this conjecture for the prime $p=2$. For this we rely…

These brief notes record our puzzles and findings surrounding Givental's recent conjecture which expresses higher genus Gromov-Witten invariants in terms of the genus-0 data. We limit our considerations to the case of a projective line,…

Inspired by a method of La Bret\`eche relying on some unique factorisation, we generalize work of Blomer, Br\"udern, and Salberger to prove Manin's conjecture in its strong form conjectured by Peyre for some infinite family of varieties of…

Let $F$ be a global field. Let $G$ be a non trivial finite \'etale tame $F$-group scheme. We define height functions on the set of $G$-torsors over $F,$ which generalize the usual heights such as discriminant. As an analogue of the Malle…

Let $\Gamma\subset \bar{\mathbb{Q}}^*$ be a finitely generated subgroup. Denote by $\Gamma_\mathrm{div}$ its division group. A recent conjecture due to R\'emond, related to the Zilber-Pink conjecture, predicts that the absolute logarithmic…

In this article we determine the Brauer trees of the unipotent blocks with cyclic defect group in the `groups' $I_2(n,q)$, $H_3(q)$ and $H_4(q)$. The degrees of the unipotent characters of these objects were given by Lusztig, and using the…

Let $G$ be a finite group with Sylow $2$-subgroup $P \leqslant G$. Navarro-Tiep-Vallejo have conjectured that the principal $2$-block of $N_G(P)$ contains exactly one irreducible Brauer character if and only if all odd-degree ordinary…

The Alperin-McKay conjecture relates height zero characters of an $\ell$-block with the ones of its Brauer correspondent. This conjecture has been reduced to the so-called inductive Alperin-McKay conditions about quasi-simple groups by the…

We show that a conjecture of Giannelli on character degrees of height zero characters holds for blocks with a cyclic or Klein four defect group.

The aim of this short research note is to present some results about a conjecture of Barker and Gelvin claiming that any source algebra of a block of a finite group has the unit group containing a basis stabilised by the left and right…

This article is the final one of a series of articles on certain blocks of modular representations of finite groups of Lie type and the associated geometry. We prove the conjecture of Brou\'e on derived equivalences induced by the complex…

In this paper, we develop a covering theory for the fractional Brauer configurations and connect it with the coverings of the associated quivers with relations in the sense of Mart\'inez-Villa and de la Pe\~na. Among the results, we show…

The classical Brauer-Siegel conjecture describes the asymptotic behaviour of the product of the class number and the regulator in families of number fields. All known cases of the conjecture rely on reducing the problem, via group theoretic…

In 1998 Brou\'e, Malle and Rouquier conjectured that the Hecke algebra of a finite complex reflection group W is a free module over the algebra of parameters of rank |W|. We give an exposition of a proof of this conjecture in characteristic…

We study blocks all of whose height zero ordinary characters have the same degree. We suspect that these might be the Broue-Puig nilpotent blocks.

We generalize the absolute logarithmic Weil height from elements of the multiplicative group of algebraic numbers modulo torsion, to finitely generated subgoups. The height of a finitely generated subgroup is shown to equal the volume of a…
