This paper proposes a new approach to deriving a finite particle content, suitable for the construction of a gauge theory. Specifically, the outlined construction generates a finite set of irreducible gauge representations, which are…

Let F be a number field with adele ring A_F, and \pi an isobaric, algebraic automorphic representation of GL_4(A_F) of a fixed archimedean weight, which is quasi-regular, meaning that at every archimedean place v of F, the 4-dimensional…

Let $G$ be a group and let $\rho\colon G\to\operatorname{Sym}(V)$ be a permutation representation of $G$ on a set $V$. We prove that there is a faithful $G$-coalgebra $C$ such that $G$ arises as the image of the restriction of…

Let $\Sigma_{g,n}$ be an orientable surface of genus $g$ with $n$ punctures. We study actions of the mapping class group of $\Sigma_{g,n}$ via Hodge-theoretic and arithmetic techniques. We show that if $$\rho: \pi_1(\Sigma_{g,n})\to…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a symmetrizable Kac-Moody Lie algebra and let $\rho$ denote the sum of the fundamental weights. The irreducible highest weight representations $V(m\rho)$ occupy a distinguished position in representation theory due to…

We prove geometric and cohomological stabilization results for the universal smooth degree $d$ hypersurface section of a fixed smooth projective variety as $d$ goes to infinity. We show that relative configuration spaces of the universal…

We start with a small paradigm shift about group representations, namely the observation that restriction to a subgroup can be understood as an extension-of-scalars. We deduce that, given a group $G$, the derived and the stable categories…

We define and study cohomological tensor functors from the category $T_n$ of finite-dimensional representations of the supergroup $Gl(n|n)$ into $T_{n-r}$ for $0 <r \leq n$. In the case $DS: T_n \to T_{n-1}$ we prove a formula $DS(L) =…

For a K3 surface over an algebraically closed field of odd characteristic, the representation of the automorphism group on the global two forms is finite. If the K3 surface is supersingular, it is isomorphic to the representation on the…

Let $G$ and $T$ be topological groups, $\alpha : T \to \Aut(G)$ a homomorphism defining a continuous action of $T$ on $G$ and $G^\sharp := G \rtimes_\alpha T$ the corresponding semidirect product group. In this paper we address several…

Let W be an irreducible finitely generated Coxeter group. The geometric representation of W in GL(V) provides a discrete embedding in the orthogonal group of the Tits form (the associated bilinear form of the Coxeter group). If the Tits…

Let $G$ be a profinite group. A strongly admissible smooth representation $\rho$ of $G$ over $\mathbb{C}$ decomposes as a direct sum $\rho \cong \bigoplus_{\pi \in \mathrm{Irr}(G)} m_\pi(\rho) \, \pi$ of irreducible representations with…

We develop the theory of maximal representations of the fundamental group of a compact connected oriented surface with boundary, into a group of Hermitian type. For any such representation we define the Toledo invariant, for which we…

We prove automorphy lifting results for geometric representations $\rho:G_F \rightarrow GL_2(\mathcal{O})$, with $F$ a totally real field, and $\mathcal{O}$ the ring of integers of a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with $p$ an odd prime,…
