Equipped with the operation of setwise multiplication induced by a (multiplicatively written) monoid $H$ on its parts, the collection of all finite subsets of $H$ containing the identity element is itself a monoid, denoted by $\mathcal…

We describe irreducible representations and character formulas of the Renner monoids for reductive monoids, which generalizes the Munn-Solomon representation theory of rook monoids to any Renner monoids. The type map and polytope associated…

Consider an algebraic semigroup $S$ and its closed subscheme of idempotents, $E(S)$. When $S$ is commutative, we show that $E(S)$ is finite and reduced; if in addition $S$ is irreducible, then $E(S)$ is contained in a smallest closed…

By a theorem of D. Wigner, an irreducible unitary representation with non-zero $(\frak{g},K)$-cohomology has trivial infinitesimal character, and hence up to unitary equivalence, these are finite in number. We have determined the number of…

We study the geometry of algebraic monoids. We prove that the group of invertible elements of an irreducible algebraic monoid is an algebraic group, open in the monoid. Moreover, if this group is reductive, then the monoid is affine. We…

In this series of papers, we investigate properties of a finite group which are determined by its low degree irreducible representations over a number field $F$, i.e. its representations on matrix rings $\operatorname{M}_n(D)$ with $n \leq…

Suppose that G is a connected reductive group over a p-adic field F, that K is a hyperspecial maximal compact subgroup of G(F), and that V is an irreducible representation of K over the algebraic closure of the residue field of F. We…

Let $G$ be a split connected reductive group over $\mathbb{Z}$. Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field. With $K_m: = Ker(G(\mathfrak{O}_F) \rightarrow G(\mathfrak{O}_F/\mathfrak{p}_F^m))$, Kazhdan proved that for a field $F'$sufficiently…

We study the role of the mirabolic subgroup $P$ of $G=\mathbf{GL}_n(F)$ ($F$ a $p$-adic field) in smooth irreducible representations of $G$ that possess a non-zero invariant functional relative to a subgroup of the form $H_{k} =…

Let G be a reductive linear algebraic group over a field k. Let A be a finitely generated commutative k-algebra on which G acts rationally by k-algebra automorphisms. Invariant theory tells that the ring of invariants A^G=H^0(G,A) is…

Let $F$ be a local non-archimedian field of odd residue characteristic and let $G=PGL(2)$. In this paper we study an analog of irreducible cuspidal representations of the group $G(F)$ when $F$ is replaced by the field $K=F((t))$. The story…

This is a survey paper about affine Hecke algebras. We start from scratch and discuss some algebraic aspects of their representation theory, referring to the literature for proofs. We aim in particular at the classification of irreducible…

A closed subgroup H of the affine, algebraic group G is called observable if G/H is a quasi-affine algebraic variety. In this paper we define the notion of an observable subgroup of the affine, algebraic monoid M. We prove that a subgroup H…
