Let \q be a simple algebraic group of type A or C over a field of good positive characteristic. We show for any x \in \q =\Lie(Q) that the invariant algebra S(\q_x)^{\q_x} is generated by the p^{th} power subalgebra and the mod p reduction…

We study noncommutative differential structures on the group of permutations $S_N$, defined by conjugacy classes. The 2-cycles class defines an exterior algebra $\Lambda_N$ which is a super analogue of the Fomin-Kirillov algebra $\CE_N$ for…

The concept of the Schwinger Representation of a finite or compact simple Lie group is set up as a multiplicity-free direct sum of all the unitary irreducible representations of the group. This is abstracted from the properties of the…

Let $H^*(\calB_e)$ be the cohomology of the Springer fibre for the nilpotent element $e$ in a simple Lie algebra $\g$, on which the Weyl group $W$ acts by the Springer representation. Let $\Lambda^i V$ denote the $i$th exterior power of the…

A theorem of Lurie and Pridham establishes a correspondence between formal moduli problems and differential graded Lie algebras in characteristic zero, thereby formalising a well-known principle in deformation theory. We introduce a variant…

This paper is an exposition of the completion of a modular group with respect to its inclusion into SL_2(Q) and the connection with the theory of modular forms and variations of mixed Hodge structure over modular curves. Among the goals of…

It is well known that the normaized characters of integrable highest weight modules of given level over an affine Lie algebra $\hat{\frak{g}}$ span an $SL_2(\mathbf{Z})$-invariant space. This result extends to admissible…

We explicitly compute the first and second cohomology groups of the classical Lie superalgebras $sl_{m|n}$ and $osp_{2|2n}$ with coefficients in the finite dimensional irreducible modules and the Kac modules. We also show that the second…

We construct modular spaces of all 6-dimensional real semisimple Drinfeld doubles, i.e. the sets of all possible decompositions of the Lie algebra of the Drinfeld double into Manin triples. These modular spaces are significantly different…

Let $(M,\mathcal{N})$ be a marked 3-manifold. We use $S_n(M,\mathcal{N},v)$ to denote the stated $SL_n$-skein module of $(M,\mathcal{N})$ where $v$ is a nonzero complex number. We establish a surjective algebra homomorphism from…

Following our approach to metric Lie algebras developed in math.DG/0312243 we propose a way of understanding pseudo-Riemannian symmetric spaces which are not semi-simple. We introduce cohomology sets (called quadratic cohomology) associated…

The most famous simple Lie algebra is $sl_n$ (the $n \times n$ matrices with trace equals $0$). The representation theory for $sl_n$ has been one of the most important research areas for the past hundred years and within their the simple…

After explaining the concepts of Langlands dual and miniscule representations, we define an analog of the Gauss sum for any compact, simple Lie group with a simply laced Lie algebra. We then show a reciprocity property when a Lie group is…

Let $L$ be a finite-dimensional Lie algebra over a field of non-zero characteristic and let $S$ be a subalgebra. Suppose that $X$ is a finite set of finite-dimensional $L$-modules. Let $D$ be the category of all finite-dimensional…

By exploiting relationships between the values taken by ordinary characters of symmetric groups we prove two theorems in the modular representation theory of the symmetric group. 1. The decomposition matrices of symmetric groups in odd…

Let $L$ be one of the finite dimensional Lie algebras $W_n({\bf m}),$ $S_n({\bf m}),$ $ H_n({\bf m})$ of Cartan type over an algebraically closed field of prime characteristic $p>0.$ For an elements $F$ of the symmetrical algebra $S(L)$ we…

We consider the action of the Lie algebra of polynomial vector fields, $\mathfrak{vect}(1)$, by the Lie derivative on the space of symbols $\mathcal{S}_\delta^n=\bigoplus_{j=0}^n \mathcal{F}_{\delta-j}$. We study deformations of this…

We introduce a notion of duality for a Lie-Rinehart algebra giving certain bilinear pairings in its cohomology generalizing the usual notions of Poincar\'e duality in Lie algebra cohomology and de Rham cohomology. We show that the duality…

n^{th} root of a Lie algebra and its dual (that is fractional supergroup) based on the permutation group $S_n$ invariant forms are formulated in the Hopf algebra formalism. Detailed discussion of $S_3$-graided $sl(2)$ algebras is done.
