In this paper, we consider the construction of irreducible representations of finite pattern groups in terms of Panov's associative polarization, which is a finite-field analogue of Kirillov's orbital method. Using this construction, first,…

We consider the computational problem of determining the unit group of a finite ring, by which we mean the computation of a finite presentation together with an algorithm to express units as words in the generators. We show that the problem…

The local Gan-Gross-Prasad conjecture of unitary groups, which is now settled by the works of Plessis, Gan and Ichino, says that for a pair of generic $L$-parameters of $(U(n+1),U(n))$, there is a unique pair of representations in their…

We develop the theory of $H$-graded manifolds for any finitely generated abelian group, using tools from representation theory. Furthermore, we introduce and investigate the notion of $H$-graded coverings of supermanifolds in the case where…

In \cite{JZ1}, D. Jiang and L. Zhang proposed a conjecture which related the wavefront sets and the descent method in the local fields case. Recently, in \cite{JLZ}, they and D. Liu define the arithmetic wavefront set of certain irreducible…

We provide a family of representations of GL(2n) over a p-adic field that admit a non-vanishing linear functional invariant under the symplectic group (i.e. representations that are Sp(2n)- distinguished). While our result generalizes a…

In the present paper, we construct a variant of the Burau representation of two generalizations of the classical braid group. For the Gassner representation, we propose an iterative procedure to find and generalize the extension of this…

If A is a finite dimensional nilpotent associative algebra over a finite field k, the set G=1+A of all formal expressions of the form 1+a, where a is an element of A, has a natural group structure, given by (1+a)(1+b)=1+(a+b+ab). A finite…

Gelfand-Graev characters and their degenerate counterparts have an important role in the representation theory of finite groups of Lie type. Using a characteristic map to translate the character theory of the finite unitary groups into the…

In this paper we look at the automorphisms of the multiplicative group of finite nearfields. We find partial results for the actual automorphism groups. We find counting techniques for the size of all finite nearfields. We then show that…

It is generally believed (and for the most part is probably true) that Lie theory, in contrast to the characteristic zero case, is insufficient to tackle the representation theory of algebraic groups over prime characteristic fields.…

It is shown that for suitable roots of unity, there exist finite--dimensional unitary representations of $U_q(so(2,3))$ corresponding to all classical one-particle representations with (half)integer spin, with the correct low-energy limit.…

We construct and study finitely presented groups with quadratic Dehn function (QD-groups) and present the following applications of the method developed in our recent papers. (1) The isomorphism problem is undecidable in the class of…

We provide a detailed structural description of the nilpotent primitive subgroups of $\mathrm{GL}(n, \mathbb{F})$, where $\mathbb{F}$ is a finite field.

We demonstrate the use of the Unified Transform Method or Method of Fokas for boundary value problems for systems of constant-coefficient linear partial differential equations. We discuss how the apparent branch singularities typically…

Building upon the author's previous work on primitivity testing of finite nilpotent linear groups over fields of characteristic zero, we describe precisely those finite nilpotent groups which arise as primitive linear groups over a given…

Let $G$ be a real reductive group in Harish-Chandra's class. We derive some consequences of theory of coherent continuation representations to the counting of irreducible representations of $G$ with a given infinitesimal character and a…

We give a general asymptotic formula for the growth rate of the number of indecomposable summands in the tensor powers of representations of finite groups, over a field of arbitrary characteristic. In characteristic zero we obtain…

We initiate a study of infinite tensor products of projective unitary representations of a discrete group G. Special attention is given to regular representations twisted by 2-cocycles and to projective representations associated with…

We give the classification of thick representations and dense representations of the symmetric group over a field of characteristic zero.
