Chiral conformal blocks in a rational conformal field theory are a far going extension of Gauss hypergeometric functions. The associated monodromy representations of Artin's braid group capture the essence of the modern view on the subject,…

We explain how to use representation theory to give a lower bound on the dimension of the quotient ring by type $B_n$ diagonal invariants that improves upon the current known lower bound $(2n+1)^n$ by a quadratic polynomial in $n$.

We study second adjointness in the context of tempered admissible representations of a real reductive group. Compared to a recent result of Crisp and Higson, this generalizes from $SL_2$ to a general group, but specializes to only…

For a unitary unramified genuine principal series representation of a covering group, we study the associated R-group. We prove a formula relating the R-group to the dimension of the Whittaker space for the irreducible constituents of such…

We study (vertically) normal lax double functors valued in the weak double category $\mathbb{C}\mathrm{at}$ of small categories, functors, profunctors and natural transformations, which we refer to as lax double presheaves. We show that for…

I introduce modal group theory, in which we study the category of all groups, considering embeddability as providing a notion of modal possibility. Using HNN extensions and Britton's lemma, I demonstrate that the modal language of groups is…

This is the second in a series of papers investigating the relationship between the twisted equivariant K-theory of a compact Lie group G and the "Verlinde ring" of its loop group. We introduce the Dirac family of Fredholm operators…

This is an expository article. We survey some fundamental trends in representation theory of symmetric groups and related objects which became apparent in the last fifteen years. The emphasis is on connections with Lie theory via…

In this paper it is shown that the wave front set of a direct integral of singular, irreducible representations of a real, reductive algebraic group is contained in the singular set. Combining this result with the results of the first paper…

This paper surveys the representation theory of rational Cherednik algebras. We also discuss the representations of the spherical subalgebras. We describe in particular the results on category O. For type A, we explain relations with the…

We consider the Grothendieck ring of the fusion algebra of the W-extended logarithmic minimal model WLM(1,p). Informally, this is the fusion ring of W-irreducible characters so it is blind to the Jordan block structures associated with…

The notion of a glider representation of a chain of normal subgroups of a group is defined by a new structure, i.e. a fragment for a suitable filtration on the group ring. This is a special case of general glider representations defined for…

We consider groups that act on spherically symmetric rooted trees and study the associated representation of the group on the space of locally constant functions on the boundary of the tree. We introduce and discuss the new notion of…

In math.RT/0302174 we developed a framework to study representations of groups of the form $G((t))$, where $G$ is an algebraic group over a local field $K$. The main feature of this theory is that natural representations of groups of this…

We discuss a new point of view of representation theory of Lie groupoids and algebroids: fat Lie theory. The category of fat extensions is introduced, as well as the category of abstract $2$-term representations up to homotopy (ruths) --…

As a sequel to our proof of the analog of Serre's conjecture for function fields in Part I of this work, we study in this paper the deformation rings of $n$-dimensional mod $\ell$ representations $\rho$ of the arithmetic fundamental group…

Generators and relations are given for the subalgebra of cocommutative elements in the quantized coordinate rings of the classical groups, where the deformation parameter q is transcendental. This is a ring theoretic formulation of the well…

An extensive group-theoretical treatment of linear relativistic field equations on Minkowski spacetime of arbitrary dimension D>2 is presented in these lecture notes. To start with, the one-to-one correspondence between linear relativistic…

In this paper we consider the representation theory of a non-standard quantization of sl(2). This paper contains several results which have applications in quantum topology, including the classification of projective indecomposable modules…

The multidimensional quantization procedure, proposed by the first author and its modifications (reduction to radicals and lifting on U(1)-coverings) give us a almost universal theoretical tools to find irreducible representations of Lie…
