We derive the representation theory of $SU(2)$ from the expository theory of Lie groups and Lie algebras. Based on this, the mathematics of non-relativistic quantum mechanics of a spin $\frac{1}{2}$ particle are described from a…

Let $F$ be a $p$-adic field. Let $\mathcal{R}$ be the Grothendieck ring of complex smooth finite-length representations of the groups $\{GL_n(F)\}_{n=0}^\infty$ taken together, with multiplication defined in the sense of parabolic…

We study three fundamental topics in the representation theory of disconnected algebraic groups whose identity component is reductive: (i) the classification of irreducible representations; (ii) the existence and properties of Weyl and dual…

The Weil representation is a particularly significant linear representation of the metaplectic group, used in the study of theta correspondence. In this paper, I introduce a derived category version of the Weil representation in the local…

In this paper, we extend the classical theory of crossed $G$-sets and the crossed Burnside ring from a finite group $G$ to a finite groupoid $\mathcal{G}$. We introduce a natural monoidal structure on the category of crossed…

The notion of permutative representation is generalized to the $2$-adic ring $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{Q}_{2}$. Permutative representations of $\mathcal{Q}_2$ are then investigated with a particular focus on the inclusion of the Cuntz algebra…

We introduce and motivate -- based on ongoing joint work with Germ\'an Stefanich -- the notion of potent categorical representations of a complex reductive group $G$, specifically a conjectural Langlands correspondence identifying potent…

Given a continuous, odd, semi-simple $2$-dimensional representation of $G_{\mathbb{Q},Np}$ over a finite field of odd characteristic $p$ and a prime $\ell$ not dividing $Np$, we study the relation between the universal deformation rings of…

We study collections of additive categories $\mathcal{M}(G)$, indexed by finite groups $G$ and related by induction and restriction in a way that categorifies usual Mackey functors. We call them `Mackey 2-functors'. We provide a large…

In this article, we classify disconnected reductive groups over an algebraically closed field with a few caveats. Internal parts of our result are both a classification of finite groups and a classification of integral representations of a…

For all sufficiently large odd integers $n$, the following version of Higman's embedding theorem is proved in the variety ${\cal B}_n$ of all groups satisfying the identity $x^n=1$. A finitely generated group $G$ from ${\cal B}_n$ has a…

The present paper links the representation theory of Lie groupoids and infinite-dimensional Lie groups. We show that smooth representations of Lie groupoids give rise to smooth representations of associated Lie groups. The groups envisaged…

We classify the primitive idempotents of the $p$-local complex representation ring of a finite group $G$ in terms of the cyclic subgroups of order prime to $p$ and show that they all come from idempotents of the Burnside ring. Our results…

Over the real numbers with $\Z/2-$coefficients, we compute the $C_2$-equivariant Borel motivic cohomology ring, the Bredon motivic cohomology groups and prove that the Bredon motivic cohomology ring of the real numbers is a proper subring…

Derived equivalences and t-structures are closely related. We use realisation functors associated to t-structures in triangulated categories to establish a derived Morita theory for abelian categories with a projective generator or an…

Let $\widetilde G$ be the nonlinear double cover of the real points of a connected, simply connected, semisimple complex group. In [Ts], we introduce a set of genuine small representations of $\widetilde G$ with infinitesimal character…

We introduce a general framework to unify several variants of twisted topological $K$-theory. We focus on the role of finite dimensional real simple algebras with a product-preserving involution, showing that Grothendieck-Witt groups…

Based on the analogies between knot theory and number theory, we study a deformation theory for SL_2-representations of knot groups, following after Mazur's deformation theory of Galois representations. Firstly, by employing the…

Let $B$ be a ring, not necessarily commutative, having an involution $*$ and let ${\mathrm U}_{2m}(B)$ be the unitary group of rank $2m$ associated to a hermitian or skew hermitian form relative to $*$. When $B$ is finite, we construct a…

Let $G$ be a finite group and let $k$ be a sufficiently large finite field. Let $R(G)$ denote the character ring of $G$ (i.e. the Grothendieck ring of the category of ${\mathbb{C}}G$-modules). We study the structure and the representations…
