Let $G$ be a permutation group acting on a finite set $\Omega$ of cardinality $n$. The number of orbits of the induced action of $G$ on the set $\Omega_m$ of all size $m$ subsets of $\Omega$ satisfies the trivial inequalities…
For an unknown finite group $G$ of automorphisms of a finite-dimensional Hilbert space, we find sharp bounds on the number of generic $G$-orbits needed to recover $G$ up to group isomorphism, as well as the number needed to recover $G$ as a…
There are several formulas for the number of orbits of the projective line under the action of subgroups of $GL_2$. We give an interpretation of two such formulas in terms of the geometry of elliptic curves, and prove a more general formula…
In this paper, the study of the global orbit pattern (gop) formed by all the periodic orbits of discrete dynamical systems on a finite set $X$ allows us to describe precisely the behaviour of such systems. We can predict by means of closed…
Motivated by branching problems for principal series representations of the Lie group $G = GL(n,\mathbb R)$, we consider all pairs $(G', P)$ with $G'$ being the Levy factor of a parabolic subgroup of $G$ and $P$ a parabolic subgroup of $G$…
We characterize those regular, holomorphic or formal maps into the orbit space $V/G$ of a complex representation of a finite group $G$ which admit a regular, holomorphic or formal lift to the representation space $V$. In particular, the…
We describe an algorithm for splitting permutation representations of finite group over fields of characteristic zero into irreducible components. The algorithm is based on the fact that the components of the invariant inner product in…
Building on the classification of modules for algebraic groups with finitely many orbits on subspaces, we determine all faithful irreducible modules for simple and maximal-semisimple connected algebraic groups that are orthogonal and have…
In this paper we show how to construct, for most p >= 5, two types of surjective representations \rho:G_Q=Gal(\bar{Q}/Q) -> GL_2(Z_p) that are ramified at an infinite number of primes. The image of inertia at almost all of these primes will…
A $p$-divisible group over a field $K$ admits a slope decomposition; associated to each slope $\lambda$ is an integer $m$ and a representation $\gal(K) \ra \gl_m(D_\lambda)$, where $D_\lambda$ is the $\rat_p$-division algebra with Brauer…
We study the topology of compact manifolds with a Lie group action for which there are only finitely many non-principal orbits, and describe the possible orbit spaces which can occur. If some non-principal orbit is singular, we show that…
An algorithm for irreducible decomposition of representations of finite groups over fields of characteristic zero is described. The algorithm uses the fact that the decomposition induces a partition of the invariant inner product into a…
Let $X$ be a homogeneous space of a real reductive Lie group $G$. It was proved by T. Kobayashi and T. Oshima that the regular representation $C^{\infty}(X)$ contains each irreducible representation of $G$ at most finitely many times if a…
We consider the orbits of the group $G=PGL_2(q)$ on the points, lines and planes of the projective space $PG(3,q)$ over a finite field $\mathbb F_q$ of characteristic different from $2$ and $3$. The points of $PG(3,q)$ can be identified…
Absolutely indecomposable vector bundle and parabolic vector bundles are well-studied via quiver representations. In this paper, we study absolutely indecomposable quasi-parabolic $G$-bundles over $\mathbb{P}^1$ with generic additive…

Let $G$ be a reductive Lie group and ${\mathcal O}$ the coadjoint orbit of a hyperbolic element of ${\frak g}^*$. By $\pi$ is denoted the unitary irreducible representation of $G$ associated with ${\mathcal O}$ by the orbit method. We give…
We study the orbit of $\mathbb{R}$ under the Bianchi group $\operatorname{PSL}_2(\mathcal{O}_K)$, where $K$ is an imaginary quadratic field. The orbit, called a Schmidt arrangement $\mathcal{S}_K$, is a geometric realisation, as an…
Consider a finite dimensional (generally reducible) polynomial representation \rho of GL_n. A projective compactification of GL_n is the closure of \rho(GL_n) in the space of all operators defined up to a factor (this class of spaces can be…
Let $G$ be a split connected reductive group over $\mathbb{F}_q$ and let $\mathbb{P}^1$ be the projective line over $\mathbb{F}_q$. Firstly, we give an explicit formula for the number of $\mathbb{F}_{q}$-rational points of generalized…
