This is a direct computation of the spectral representation of homogeneous spin-weighted spherical random fields with arbitrary integer spin. It generalises known results from Cosmology for the spin-2 Cosmic Microwave Background…
I extend the definitions of schemes relative to monoids with zero - and therefore, toric geometry - to the world of formal schemes. This expands the usual framework to include, for instance, models for Mumford's degenerating Abelian…
We exhibit a basis for the space of spherical characters of a distinguished supercuspidal representation $\pi$ of a connected reductive $p$-adic group, subject to the assumption that $\pi$ is obtained via induction from a representation of…
We consider complex manifolds that admit actions by holomorphic transformations of classical simple real Lie groups and classify all such manifolds in a natural situation. Under our assumptions, which require the group at hand to be…
We consider the Neumann version of the spherical mean value operator and its variants in the space of smooth functions, distributions and compactly supported ones. Surjectivity and range characterization issues are addressed from the…
The rational representation theory of a reductive normal algebraic monoid (with one-dimensional center) forms a highest weight category, in the sense of Cline, Parshall, and Scott. This is a fundamental fact about the representation theory…
We recall the definition of classical polar varieties, as well as those of affine and projective reciprocal polar varieties. The latter are defined with respect to a non-degenerate quadric, which gives us a notion of orthogonality. In…
Spin-weighted spherical functions provide a useful tool for analyzing tensor-valued functions on the sphere. A tensor field can be decomposed into complex-valued functions by taking contractions with tangent vectors on the sphere and the…
We generalize the spherical harmonics for l=1 and give the differential equation that the generalized forms satisfy. The new forms have an obvious interpretation in the context of quantum mechanics.
This article will appear in the proceedings of the AMS Summer Institute in Algebraic Geometry at Santa Cruz, July 1995. The topic is toric ideals, by which I mean the defining ideals of subvarieties of affine or projective space which are…
Brion proved that the valuation cone of a complex spherical variety is a fundamental domain for a finite reflection group, called the little Weyl group. The principal goal of this paper is to generalize this fundamental theorem to fields of…
Several results on presenting an affine algebraic group variety as a product of algebraic varieties are obtained.
It was shown in [S. Kaliman, M. Zaidenberg, Gromov ellipticity of cones over projective manifolds, Math. Res. Lett. (to appear), arXiv:2303.02036 (2023)] that the affine cones over flag manifolds and rational smooth projective surfaces are…
A phenomenon of classical quantization is discussed. This is revealed in the class of pseudoclassical gauge systems with nonlinear nilpotent constraints containing some free parameters. Variation of parameters does not change local (gauge)…
We provide a complete description of normal affine algebraic varieties over the real numbers endowed with an effective action of the real circle, that is, the real form of the complex multiplicative group whose real locus consists of the…
The first steps in defining tropicalization for spherical varieties have been taken in the last few years. There are two parts to this theory: tropicalizing subvarieties of homogeneous spaces and tropicalizing their closures in spherical…
We define convexity canonically in the setting of monoids. We show that many classical results from convex analysis hold for functions defined on such groups and semigroups, rather than only on vector spaces. Some examples and…
Work of Grantcharov et al. develops a theory of abstract crystals for the queer Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{q}_n$. Such $\mathfrak{q}_n$-crystals form a monoidal category in which the connected normal objects have unique highest weight…
We describe complete simplicial toric varieties on which a unipotent group acts with a finite number of orbits. We also provide a complete list of such varieties in the case where the dimension is equal to 2.
The description of irreducible representations of a group G can be seen as a question in harmonic analysis; namely, decomposing a suitable space of functions on G into irreducibles for the action of G x G by left and right multiplication.…
