We construct two small resolutions of singularities of the Coble fourfold (the double cover of the four-dimensional projective space branched over the Igusa quartic). We use them to show that all $S_6$-invariant three-dimensional quartics…
We provide a complete characterisation of extreme points of the space of sofic representations. We also show that the restriction map $Sof(G,P^{\omega})$ to $Sof(H,P^{\omega})$, where $H\subset G$ is not always surjective. The first part of…
Second order partial differential equations which describe spherical surfaces (ss) or pseudospherical surfaces (pss) are considered. These equations are equivalent to the structure equations of a metric with Gaussian curvature $K = 1$ or $K…
Let $(M,g)$ be a surface with Riemannian metric and curved conic singularities. More precisely, a neighbourhood of a singularity is isometric to $(0,1)\times S^1$ with metric $g_{\text{conic}}=dr^2+f(r)^2d\theta^2, r\in(0,1)$. We study the…
In this paper we describe the space of maximal components of the character variety of surface group representations into PSp(4,R) and Sp(4,R). For every rank 2 real Lie group of Hermitian type, we construct a mapping class group invariant…
We initiate the representation theory of the degenerate affine periplectic Brauer algebra on $n$ strands by constructing its finite-dimensional calibrated representations when $n=2$. We show that any such representation that is…
The two-parametric quantum superalgebra $U_{p,q}[gl(2/2)]$ and its induced representations are considered. A method for constructing all finite-dimensional irreducible representations of this quantum superalgebra is also described in…
Given a continuous, odd, reducible and semi-simple $2$-dimensional representation $\bar\rho_0$ of $G_{\mathbb{Q},Np}$ over a finite field of odd characteristic $p$, we study the relation between the universal deformation ring of the…
A unital in PG(2,q^2) is a set U of q^3+1 points such that each line meets U in 1 or q+1 points. The well known example is the classical unital consisting of all absolute points of a non-degenerate unitary polarity of PG(2,q^2). Unitals…
In this work we systematically investigate the condensate properties, superfluid properties and quantum phase transitions in interacting Bose gases trapped in disordered optical potentials. We numerically solve the Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian…
We determine the structure of the partition algebra $P_n(Q)$ (a generalized Temperley-Lieb algebra) for specific values of $Q \in \C$, focusing on the quotient which gives rise to the partition function of $n$ site $Q$-state Potts models…
We construct a Langlands parameterization of supercuspidal representations of $G_2$ over a $p$-adic field. More precisely, for any finite extension $K / \QQ_p$ we will construct a bijection \[ \CL_g : \CA^0_g(G_2,K) \rightarrow \CG^0(G_2,K)…
Properties of relative traces and symmetrizing forms on chains of cyclotomic and affine Hecke algebras are studied. The study relies on a use of bases of these algebras which generalize a normal form for elements of the complex reflection…
In this article we give a geometric interpretation of the Hitchin component for PSL(4,R) in the representation variety of a closed oriented surface of higher genus. We show that representations in the Hitchin component are precisely the…
In this paper we study the problem of computing the Dirac cohomology of the special unipotent representations of the real groups Sp(2n,R) and U(p,q).
We provide several new $q$-congruences for truncated basic hypergeometric series, mostly of arbitrary order. Our results include congruences modulo the square or the cube of a cyclotomic polynomial, and in some instances, parametric…
We analyze the structure of co-invariant subspaces for representations of the Cuntz algebras O_N for N = 2,3,..., N < infinity, with special attention to the representations which are associated to orthonormal and tight-frame wavelets in…
The group $\GL_2$ over a local field with (residue) characteristic $2$ possesses much more smooth supercuspidal $\ell$-adic representations, than over a local field of residue characteristic $> 2$. One way to construct these representations…
A ladder structure of operators is presented for the associated Legendre polynomials and the spherical harmonics showing that both belong to the same irreducible representation of so(3,2). As both are also bases of square-integrable…
A short review is given of how to apply the algebraic Heisenberg quantization scheme to a system of identical particles. For two particles in one dimension the approach leads to a generalization of the Bose and Fermi description which can…
