The multiplicities a_{lambda,mu} of simple modules L(mu) in the composition series of Kac modules V(lambda) for the Lie superalgebra gl(m/n) were described by Serganova, leading to her solution of the character problem for gl(m/n). In…
Let p be a prime and F a totally real field in which p is unramified. We consider mod p Hilbert modular forms for F, defined as sections of automorphic line bundles on Hilbert modular varieties of level prime to p in characteristic p. For a…
We describe an algorithmic method to determine the image of restriction maps for Siegel modular forms with \textit{arbitrary} characters and arbitrary weight. A program has been implemented in the mathematical software \texttt{Java} to…
If G is a non-cyclic finite group, non-isomorphic G-sets X, Y may give rise to isomorphic permutation representations C[X] and C[Y]. Equivalently, the map from the Burnside ring to the representation ring of G has a kernel. Its elements are…
We classify all irreducible highest-weight unitary modules over the non-compact real form $\mathfrak{u}(p,q|n)$ of the general linear Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{gl}_{p+q|n}$. The classification is given by explicit necessary and sufficient…

We estimate weighted character sums with determinants $ad-bc $ of $2\times 2$ matrices modulo a prime $p$ with entries $a,b,c,d $ varying over the interval $ [1,N]$. Our goal is to obtain nontrivial bounds for values of $N$ as small as…
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…
For any finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and commutative associative algebra $S$ of finite type, we give a complete classification of the simple weight modules of $\mathfrak{g}\otimes S$ with bounded weight…
This note is a sequel to Shu-Xue-Yao's paper \cite{BYY} where the author studied the so-called enhanced groups and related dualities for type $A$. In this note, we continue to investigate the enhanced dualities for classical groups of type…
In this article we consider mod p modular Galois representations which are unramified at p such that the Frobenius element at p acts through a scalar matrix. The principal result states that the multiplicity of any such representation is…
Recently, a new conjecture on the degrees of the irreducible Brauer characters of a finite group was presented by the second author. In this paper we propose a 'local' version of this conjecture for blocks B of finite groups, giving a lower…
In this paper we consider the Brauer groups of algebraic stacks and GIT quotients: the only algebraic stacks we consider in this paper are quotient stacks [X/G], where X is a smooth scheme of finite type over a field k, and G is a linear…
Let $p$ be a prime. We classify the finite groups having exactly two irreducible $p$-Brauer characters of degree larger than one. The case, where the finite groups have orders not divisible by $p$, was done by P. P\'alfy in 1981.
Given two Siegel eigenforms of different weights, we determine explicit sets of Hecke eigenvalues for the two forms that must be distinct. In degree two, and under some additional conditions, we determine explicit sets of Fourier…
We prove that the Brauer group of the moduli stack of elliptic curves $\mathscr{M}_{1,1,k}$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $2$ is isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}/(2)$. We also compute the Brauer group of…
Let k be a perfect field of characteristic p>0. When p>2, Fontaine and Laffaille have classified p-divisibles groups and finite flat p-groups over the Witt vectors W(k) in terms of filtered modules. Still assuming p>2, we extend these…
We compute the character tables of the following groups with character theoretic methods, using known information about the conjugacy classes and about the character tables of some subgroups and factor groups: $Th$, $J_4$, $2.{}^2E_6(2)$,…
Sometimes, it is very important to consider what type of setting is assumed when studying a mathematical object. For example, in Galois theory, properties can completely change if we study a field extension over $F_p$ instead of a field…
In the first part of the paper we give the denominator identity for all simple finite-dimensional Lie super algebras $\frak g\/$ with a non-degenerate invariant bilinear form. We give also a character and (super) dimension formulas for all…
