We show that group C*-algebras of finitely generated, nilpotent groups have finite nuclear dimension. It then follows, from a string of deep results, that the C*-algebra $A$ generated by an irreducible representation of such a group has…

Let $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ be a finite field of characteristic $p$, and let $W_{2}(\mathbb{F}_{q})$ be the ring of Witt vectors of length two over $\mathbb{F}_{q}$. We prove that for any reductive group scheme $\mathbb{G}$ over $\mathbb{Z}$ such…

The present work investigates regular, semiregular, and chiral polytopes of any rank $d\geq 3$, whose automorphism groups are 2-groups. There is a large variety of rather small finite regular or alternating semiregular polytopes with…

A general method for finding subgroups of a totally disconnected, locally compact groups having flat-rank greater than 1 is described. This method uses the internal structure of the group, notably the Levi subgroup of a given flat group, in…

We improve homological stability ranges for the orthogonal group, special orthogonal group, elementary orthogonal group and the spin group over a commutative local ring $R$ with infinite residue field such that $2 \in R^{*}$.

Polynomials in this paper are defined starting from a compact semisimple Lie group. A known classification of maximal, semisimple subgroups of simple Lie groups is used to select the cases to be considered here. A general method is…

The representation dimension was defined by M. Auslander in 1970 and is, due to spectacular recent progress, one of the most interesting homological invariants in representation theory. The precise value is not known in general, and is very…

We study irreducible mod p representations, valued in general reductive groups, of the Galois group of a number field. When the number field is totally real, we show that odd representations satisfying local ramification hypotheses and a…

We investigate the rank gradient and growth of torsion in homology in residually finite groups. As a tool, we introduce a new complexity notion for generating sets, using measured groupoids and combinatorial cost. As an application we prove…

We consider various generalisations of the string class of a loop group bundle. The string class is the obstruction to lifting a bundle whose structure group is the loop group $LG$ to one whose structure group is the Kac-Moody central…

We introduce a new approach to representation theory of finite groups that uses some basic algebraic geometry and allows to do all the theory without using characters. With this approach, to any finite group $G$ we associate a finite number…

We develop a theory of levels for irreducible representations of symmetric groups of degree $n$ analogous to the theory of levels for finite classical groups. A key property of level is that the level of a character, provided it is not too…

We give new, explicit and asymptotically sharp, lower bounds for dimensions of irreducible modular representations of finite symmetric groups.

This article is a survey of conjectures and results on reductive algebraic groups having good reduction at a suitable set of discrete valuations of the base field. Until recently, this subject has received relatively little attention, but…

In this paper we give the description of generic representations of metaplectic groups over p-adic fields in terms of their Langlands parameters and calculate their theta lifts on all levels for any tower of odd orthogonal groups. We also…

Let $G$ be an infinite-dimensional real classical group containing the complete unitary group (or complete orthogonal group) as a subgroup. Then $G$ generates a category of double cosets (train) and any unitary representation of $G$ can be…

We prove that any group acting essentially without a fixed point at infinity on an irreducible finite-dimensional CAT(0) cube complex contains a rank one isometry. This implies that the Rank Rigidity Conjecture holds for CAT(0) cube…

We prove that any odd-dimensional modular category of rank at most 23 is pointed. We also show that an odd-dimensional modular category of rank 25 is either pointed, perfect, or equivalent to $\operatorname{Rep}(D^\omega(\mathbb Z_7\rtimes…

We propose a new sufficient condition for verifying whether generic rank-r complex tensors of arbitrary order admit a unique decomposition as a linear combination of rank-1 tensors. A practical algorithm is proposed for verifying this…

Lorentz's group represented by the hypercomplex system of numbers, which is based on dirac matrices, is investigated. This representation is similar to the space rotation representation by quaternions. This representation has several…
