Hypercubic groups in any dimension are defined and their conjugate classifications and representation theories are derived. Double group and spinor representation are introduced. A detailed calculation is carried out on the structures of…

We provide a full classification of complete maximal $p$-dimensional spacelike submanifolds in the pseudo-hyperbolic space $\mathbf{H}^{p,q}$, and we study its applications to Teichm\"uller theory and to the theory of Anosov representations…

Let $\Gamma$ be a non-elementary word hyperbolic group and $d_{a}, a>1,$ a visual metric on its Gromov boundary $\partial_{\infty}\Gamma$. For an $1$-Anosov representation $\rho:\Gamma \rightarrow \mathsf{GL}_{d}(\mathbb{K})$, where…

We study mappings with bounded (p,q)-distortion associated to Sobolev spaces on Carnot groups. Mappings of such type have applications to the Sobolev type embedding theory and classification of manifolds. For this class of mappings, we…

We give parameterizations of the irreducible representations of finite groups of Lie type in their defining characteristic.

This expository paper is based on the lectures given at the program `Modular Representation Theory of Finite and $p$-adic Groups' at the National University of Singapore. We are concerned with recent results on representation theory and…

In this paper, we investigate abstract homomorphism from the special linear group over complete discrete valuation rings with finite residue field, such as the ring of p-adic integers, into the general linear group over the reals. We find…

The aim of this article is to study the existence of certain reducible, metabelian representations of knot groups into $\mathrm{SL}(n,\mathbf{C})$ which generalise the representations studied previously by G.~Burde and G.~de Rham. Under…

We consider limits of p-adic Galois representations, study different notions of convergence for such representations, and prove Cebotarev-type density theorems for them.

We show that $\Theta$-positive Anosov representations $\rho:\Gamma\to{\sf PO}(p,q)$ of a surface group $\Gamma$ satisfy root versus weight collar lemmas for all the Anosov roots, and are positively ratioed with respect to all such roots. We…

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 for every positive Anosov representation of a nonabelian free group into $\mathrm{SO}(2n,2n-1)$ a family of $\mathbb{R}^{4n-1}$-valued cocycles which induce proper affine actions on $\mathbb{R}^{4n-1}$. We construct fundamental…

The first part of this article is a general introduction to the the theory of representation spaces of discrete groups into SL(n,C). Special attention is paid to knot groups. In Section 2 we discuss the difference between the tangent space…

Let Gamma be a cocompact lattice in SO(1,n). A representation rho: Gamma \to SO(2,n) is quasi-Fuchsian if it is faithfull, discrete, and preserves an acausal subset in the boundary of anti-de Sitter space - a particular case is the case of…

In this article we construct a type of deformations of representations $\pi_1(M)\rightarrow G$ where $G$ is an arbitrary lie group and $M$ is a large class of manifolds including CAT(0) manifolds. The deformations are defined based on…

We find the number $s_k(p,\Omega)$ of cuspidal automorphic representations of $\mathrm{GSp}(4,\mathbb{A}_{\mathbb{Q}})$ with trivial central character such that the archimedean component is a holomorphic discrete series representation of…

Let $\Gamma$ be a one-ended, torsion-free hyperbolic group and let $G$ be a semisimple Lie group with finite center. Using the canonical JSJ splitting due to Sela, we define amalgam Anosov representations of $\Gamma$ into $G$ and prove that…

We generalize a cohomological construction of representations due to Lusztig from the hyperspecial case to arbitrary parahoric subgroups of a reductive group over a local field, which splits over an unramified extension. We compute the…

We give a description of several representation varieties of the fundamental group of the complement of the figure eight knot in PGL(3,C) or SL(3,C). We moreover obtain an explicit parametrization of matrices generating the representation…

We classify the finite-dimensional irreducible linear representations of the Baumslag-Solitar groups BS(p,q) = < a, b | a b^p = b^q a > for relatively prime p and q. The general strategy of the argument is to consider the matrix group given…
