Let $G$ be a reductive group acting on a path algebra $kQ$ as automorphisms. We assume that $G$ admits a graded polynomial representation theory, and the action is polynomial. We describe the quiver $Q_G$ of the smash product algebra $kQ\#…

We give a short introduction to the subject of representation growth and representation zeta functions of groups, omitting all proofs. Our focus is on results which are relevant to the study of arithmetic groups in semisimple algebraic…

Given a finite group $G$ acting on a surface $S$, the centralizer of G in the mapping class group $\textrm{Mod}(S)$ has a natural representation given by its action on the homology $H_1(S; \mathbb{Q})$. We consider the question of whether…

Several different areas of group theory, topology and geometry have led to the study of the action of Aut(Fn) | the automorphism group of the free group on n generators | on Hom(Fn;G) when G is either finite,compact or simple Lie group. In…

It has been known that the Wigner representation theory for positive energy orbits permits a useful localization concept in terms of certain lattices of real subspaces of the complex Hilbert -space. This ''modular localization'' is not only…

Compact matrix quantum groups are strongly determined by their intertwiner spaces, due to a result by S.L. Woronowicz. In the case of easy quantum groups, the intertwiner spaces are given by the combinatorics of partitions, see the inital…

It is examined finite state automorphisms of regular rooted trees constructed to represent groups $GL(n,\mathbb{Z})$. The number of states of automorphisms that correspond to elementary matrices is computed. Using the representation of…

We give a new technique for constructing presentations by generators and relations for representations of groups like $SL_n(\mathbb{Z})$ and $Sp_{2g}(\mathbb{Z})$. Our results play an important role in recent work of the authors calculating…

Let G be a finite group. To every smooth G-action on a compact, connected and oriented surface we can associate its data of singular orbits. The set of such data becomes an Abelian group B_G under the G-equivariant connected sum. We will…

This paper gives insight into intriguing connections between two apparently unrelated theories: the theory of skein modules of 3-manifolds and the theory of representations of groups into special linear groups of 2 by 2 matrices. Let R be a…

In this note, we consider models in $\mathbb C^2$. The purpose of this note is twofold. We first show a characterization of models in $\mathbb C^2$ by their noncompact automorphism groups. Then we give an explicit description for…

These notes provide three contributions to the (well-established) representation theory of Dynkin and Euclidean quivers. They should be helpful as part of a direct approach to study representations of quivers, and they may shed some new…

The variety of principal minors of $n\times n$ symmetric matrices, denoted $Z_{n}$, is invariant under the action of a group $G\subset \GL(2^{n})$ isomorphic to $\G$. We describe an irreducible $G$-module of degree $4$ polynomials…

We consider the 3-category $2\mathfrak{C}at$ whose objects are 2-categories, 1-morphisms are lax functors, 2-morphisms are lax transformations and 3-morphisms are modifications. The aim is to show that it carries interesting…

In this paper, we study extra-twists for automorphic representations of $\mathrm{GL}_n$ and use them to give a precise description of the image of the Galois representations associated with regular algebraic cuspidal automorphic…

An important step in the determination of the automorphism group of the quantum torus of rank $n$ (or twisted group algebra of $\mathbb Z^n$) is the determination of its so-called non-scalar automorphisms. We present a new algorithimic…

The (ordinary) quiver of an algebra $A$ is a graph that contains information about the algebra's representations. We give a description of the quiver of $\mathbb{C}PT_{n}$, the algebra of the monoid of all partial functions on $n$ elements.…

We study when the group $\mathbb Z^n\rtimes_A\mathbb Z$ is arithmetic where $A\in GL_n(\mathbb Z)$ is hyperbolic and semisimple. We begin by giving a characterization of arithmeticity phrased in the language of algebraic tori, building on…

We say that there is a representation of the universal algebra B in the universal algebra A if the set of endomorphisms of the universal algebra A has the structure of universal algebra B. Therefore, the role of representation of the…

The first part of this article is a general introduction to the the theory of representation spaces of discrete groups into SL(n,C). Special attention is paid to knot groups. In Section 2 we discuss the difference between the tangent space…
