We describe the structure of a Verma module with a generic highest weight at the critical level over a symmetrizable affine Lie superalgebra not of the type A(2k,2l)^{(4)}. We obtain the character formula for a simple module with a generic…
In this paper, we investigate semisimplicity of cellular algebras over positive characteristic fields. Our main result shows that the Frame number of cellular algebras characterizes semisimplicity of it. In a sense, this is a generalization…
We establish a character formula for indecomposable tilting modules for connected reductive groups in characteristic p in terms of p-Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials, for p>h the Coxeter number. Using results of Andersen, one may deduce a…
The paper relates character value of an irreducible representation of a compact connected Lie group at certain elements of finite order with the dimension of a representation on another group, up to some precise constants, which all have…
We prove Lusztig's conjectures ${\bf P1}$--${\bf P15}$ for the affine Weyl group of type $\tilde{G}_2$ for all choices of parameters. Our approach to compute Lusztig's $\mathbf{a}$-function is based on the notion of a "balanced system of…
Let (G,S) be a finitely generated Coxeter group, such that the Coxeter system is indecomposable and the canonical bilinear form is indefinite but non-degenerate. We show that the reduced C-*-algebra of G is simple with unique normalised…
In this paper we consider the character of a finite dimensional algebraic representation of $GL_{mn}({\mathbb C})$ restricted to a particular disconnected component of the normalizer of the Levi subgroup $GL_m({\mathbb C})^n$ of…
We observe that on the level of derived categories, representations of the Lie algebra of a semisimple algebraic group over a field of characteristic $p> h$ (where $h$ is the Coxeter number), with a given (generalized) central character are…
In the representation theory of reductive $p$-adic groups $G$, the issue of reducibility of induced representations is an issue of great intricacy. It is our contention, expressed as a conjecture in [3], that there exists a simple geometric…
In 2005 Wolfgang Willems put forward a conjecture proposing a lower bound for the sum of squares of the degrees of the irreducible $p$-Brauer characters of a finite group $G$. We prove this conjecture for the prime $p=2$. For this we rely…
We show that the category O for a rational Cherednik algebra of type A is equivalent to modules over a q-Schur algebra (parameter not a half integer), providing thus character formulas for simple modules. We give some generalization to…
We address two fundamental questions in the representation theory of affine Hecke algebras of classical types. One is an inductive algorithm to compute characters of tempered modules, and the other is the determination of the constants in…
We classify the finite groups with the property that any two different character codegrees are coprime. In general, we conjecture that if $k$ is a positive integer such that for any prime $p$ the number of character codegrees of a finite…
Let G be a semisimple almost simple algebraic group defined and split over a nonarchimedean local field K and let V be a unipotent representation of G(K) (for example, an Iwahori-spherical representation). We calculate the character of V at…
We classify and explicitly construct the irreducible graded representations of anti-spherical Hecke categories which are concentrated in one degree. Each of these homogeneous representations is one-dimensional and can be cohomologically…
The supercharacter theory of algebra groups gave us a representation theoretic realization of the Hopf algebra of symmetric functions in noncommuting variables. The underlying representation theoretic framework comes equipped with two…
In this paper we extend the computations in parts I and II of this series of papers and complete the proof of a conjecture of Lehrer and Solomon expressing the character of a finite Coxeter group W acting on the pth graded component of its…
We prove a variation of Thompson's Theorem. Namely, if the first column of the character table of a finite group $G$ contains only two distinct values not divisible by a given prime number $p>3$, then $O^{pp'pp'}(G)=1$. This is done by…
Let $G_n=\operatorname{GL}_n(F)$, where $F$ is a non-archimedean local field with residue characteristic $p$. Our starting point is the Bernstein-decomposition of the representation category of $G_n$ over an algebraically closed field of…
Let G be a finite group, and let B be a non-nilpotent block of G with respect to an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. Suppose that B has an elementary abelian defect group of order 16 and only one simple module. The main…
