In this note we solve the twisted conjugacy problem for braid groups, i.e. we propose an algorithm which, given two braids $u,v\in B_n$ and an automorphism $\phi \in Aut (B_n)$, decides whether $v=(\phi (x))^{-1}ux$ for some $x\in B_n$. As…

Let H be a subgroup of a finite group G. We use Markov chains to quantify how large r should be so that the decomposition of the r tensor power of the representation of G on cosets on H behaves (after renormalization) like the regular…

In a previous paper, the first and third authors gave an explicit realization of the geometric Langlands correspondence for hypergeometric sheaves, considered as $\textrm{GL}_n$-local systems. Certain hypergeometric local systems admit a…

We prove Macdonald-type deformations of a number of well-known classical branching rules by employing identities for elliptic hypergeometric integrals and series. We also propose some conjectural branching rules and allied conjectures…

$H$-Packing is the problem of finding a maximum number of vertex-disjoint copies of $H$ in a given graph $G$. $H$-Partition is the special case of finding a set of vertex-disjoint copies that cover each vertex of $G$ exactly once. Our goal…

Manifold submetries of the round sphere are a class of partitions of the round sphere that generalizes both singular Riemannian foliations, and the orbit decompositions by the orthogonal representations of compact groups. We exhibit a…

This work is largely inspired by the 2003 Ph.D. thesis \cite{snitz} of Kobi Snitz. In his thesis, Snitz constructed two irreducible, automorphic, cuspidal representations $ \pi $ and $ \pi' $ of the metaplectic group $ G\left ( \mathbb A…

Given a graph G and an integer k, the objective of the $\Pi$-Contraction problem is to check whether there exists at most k edges in G such that contracting them in G results in a graph satisfying the property $\Pi$. We investigate the…

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the global categorical symmetries that arise when gauging finite higher groups in three or more dimensions. The motivation is to provide a common perspective on constructions of non-invertible…

Let $G$ be a connected, simply connected, nilpotent Lie group whose irreducible unitary representations are square-integrable modulo the center. We obtain characterization results for reproducing formulas associated with the left…

Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean locally compact field. We show that the local Langlands correspondence over $F$ has a strong property generalizing the higher ramification theorem of local class field theory. If $\pi$ is an irreducible cuspidal…

Let $F$ be a non-Archimedean local field. Let $\Cal W_F$ be the Weil group of $F$ and $\Cal P_F$ the wild inertia subgroup of $\scr W_F$. Let $\hat{\Cal W}_F$ be the set of equivalence classes of irreducible smooth representations of $\Cal…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p\geqslant 0$, let $H$ be a proper closed subgroup of $G$ and let $V$ be a nontrivial irreducible $KG$-module, which is $p$-restricted, tensor…

Many exact search algorithms for NP-hard graph problems adopt the old Davis-Putman branch-and-reduce paradigm. The performance of these algorithms often suffers from the increasing number of graph modifications, such as vertex/edge…

We use binary trees to study the Bratteli diagram of Sylow 2-subgroups of symmetric groups. We show that it is simple, has a recursive structure, and self-similarities at all scales. We contrast its subgraph of one-dimensional…

We consider the problem of inferring the conditional independence graph (CIG) of a sparse, high-dimensional, stationary matrix-variate Gaussian time series. All past work on high-dimensional matrix graphical models assumes that independent…

Using Bruhat-Tits theory, we analyse the restriction of depth-zero representations of a semisimple simply connected $p$-adic group $G$ to a maximal compact subgroup $K$. We prove the coincidence of branching rules within classes of…

Let $p$ be a prime, $k$ a finite extension of $\mathbf{F}_p$ of cardinal $q$, $l$ a finite extension of $k$ of group $\Sigma=\mathrm{Gal}(l|k)$, and $T$ a subgroup of $l^\times$. Using the method of "little groups", we classify irreducible…

We study representations of $GL_{n}(\mathbb{F}_{q})$ that are distinguished with respect to a symmetric subgroup $H=GL_{n}(\mathbb{F}_{q})^{\sigma}$, where $\sigma$ is an involution. We prove that those representations satisfy $\pi \cong…

We construct a canonical irreducible representation for the orthofermion algebra of arbitrary order, and show that every representation decomposes into irreducible representations that are isomorphic to either the canonical representation…
