We show that a rational holonomy representation of any flat manifold except torus must have at least two non-equivalent irreducible subrepresentations. As an application we show that if a K\"ahler flat manifold is not a torus then its…
We study the representations of a class of non-commutative polynomial algebras truncated at degree 3, with one additional relation. We determine the irreducible components of their varieties of representations. We do this by showing that…
We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for determining when a flat manifold can occur as a cusp cross-section within a given commensurability class of cusped arithmetic hyperbolic manifolds. This reduces the problem of identifying…
We classify homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian manifolds of index 4 which admit an invariant almost hyper-Hermitian structure and an H-irreducible isotropy group. The main result is that all these spaces are flat except in dimension 12.
We classify (up to affine equivalence) all 7-dimensional flat manifolds with a cyclic holonomy group.
We construct examples of complete quaternionic K\"ahler manifolds with an end of finite volume, which are not locally homogeneous. The manifolds are aspherical with fundamental group which is up to an infinite cyclic extension a semi-direct…
A long-standing conjecture of Farrell and Zdravkovska and independently S.~T.~Yau states that every almost flat manifold is the boundary of a compact manifold. This paper gives a simple proof of this conjecture when the holonomy group is…
We classify globally irreducible representations of alternating groups and double covers of symmetric and alternating groups. In order to achieve this classification we also completely characterise irreducible representations of such groups…
This article is concerned with the study of the holonomy group of flat solvmanifolds. It is known that the holonomy group of a flat solvmanifold is abelian; we give an elementary proof of this fact and moreover we prove that any finite…
Let $M$ be a flat manifold. We say that $M$ has $R_\infty$ property if the Reidemeister number $R(f) = \infty$ for every homeomorphism $f \colon M \to M.$ In this paper, we investigate a relation between the holonomy representation $\rho$…
The results of the paper concern the topological structure of complete riemannian manifolds with cyclic holonomy groups and low-dimensional orientable complete flat manifolds. We also discuss related results such as the affine…
Maximally symmetric manifolds with holonomy in the unitary quaternionic group Sp(d/4) emerge from the non-Abelian Kaluza-Klein reduction of conformally flat spaces. Thus, all special manifolds with constant properly `holonomy-related'…
We investigate geometric properties of indecomposable but non-irreducible Lorentzian manifolds, which are total spaces of circle bundles. We investigate under which conditions these manifolds are complete and give examples which fulfill the…
The decomposition of the polynomials on the quaternionic unit sphere in $\Hd$ into irreducible modules under the action of the quaternionic unitary (symplectic) group and quaternionic scalar multiplication has been studied by several…
By analogy with the real and complex affine groups, whose unitary irreducible representations are used to define the one and two-dimensional continuous wavelet transforms, we study here the quaternionic affine group and construct its…
Given a quaternionic form G of a p-adic classical group (p odd) we classify all cuspidal irreducible representations of G with coefficients in an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from p. We prove two theorems: At…
A complete classification and character formulas for finite-dimensional irreducible representations of the rational Cherednik algebra of type A is given. Less complete results for other types are obtained. Links to the geometry of affine…
We show that minimal symplectic 4--manifolds with $b_2^+ >1$ and with residually finite fundamental groups are irreducible. We also give examples of irreducible orientable four--manifolds with indefinite intersection forms which are not…
The holonomy group $G$ of a pseudo-quaternionic-K\"ahlerian manifold of signature $(4r,4s)$ with non-zero scalar curvature is contained in $\Sp(1)\cdot\Sp(r,s)$ and it contains $\Sp(1)$. It is proved that either $G$ is irreducible, or $s=r$…
We classify all closed non-orientable $\mathbb{P}^2$-irreducible 3-manifolds obtained by identifying the faces of a cube. These turn out to be the closed non-orientable $\mathbb{P}^2$-irreducible 3-manifolds with surface-complexity one. We…
