A Kauffman bracket on a surface is an invariant for framed links in the thickened surface, satisfying the Kauffman skein relation and multiplicative under superposition. This includes representations of the skein algebra of the surface. We…

In this note we study the symmetric powers of strongly modular icosahedral representations $\rho$ of ${\rm Gal} (\bar{F}/F)$, $F$ a number field, and their twisted $L$--functions. We prove that for such $\rho$, there exists a cuspidal…

We show that $\frak{su}(2)$ Lie algebras of coordinate operators related to quantum spaces with $\frak{su}(2)$ noncommutativity can be conveniently represented by $SO(3)$-covariant poly-differential involutive representations. We show that…

The representation of the conformal group (PSU(2,2)) on the space of solutions to Maxwell's equations on the conformal compactification of Minkowski space is shown to break up into four irreducible unitarizable smooth Fr\'echet…

In this paper we consider type-preserving representations of the fundamental group of the three--holed projective plane into $\mathrm{PGL}(2, \R) =\mathrm{Isom}(\HH^2)$ and study the connected components with non-maximal euler class. We…

We extend the Galois-theoretic Borovoi-Springer interpretation of algebraic bands to a class of \'etale-locally represented bands on the fppf site of an arbitrary field $k$, which we call separable bands. Next, a band represented…

We prove automorphy lifting results for geometric representations $\rho:G_F \rightarrow GL_2(\mathcal{O})$, with $F$ a totally real field, and $\mathcal{O}$ the ring of integers of a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with $p$ an odd prime,…

We show that for a representation of the fundamental group of a triangulated closed 3-manifold (not necessarily hyperbolic) into $\PSL$ so that any edge loop has non-trivial image under the representation, there exist uncountably many…

We show that a PSL(2;R)-representation of a Fuchsian group induces the asymptotics of the Reidemeister torsion for the Seifert manifold corresponding to the euler class of the PSL(2;R)-representation. We also show that the limit of leading…

Even though it is known that there exist quasi-Fuchsian hyperbolic three-manifolds that do not admit any monotone foliation by constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces, a conjecture due to Thurston asserts the existence of CMC foliations for…

We prove that the groups PSL(r,q^d) can be realized F_q(T)-regularly as Galois groups over the purely transcendental field F_q(T)(t_1,...,t_{r-1}) if r is even and r/2 is coprime to q^d-1. The method is to use twisted moduli schemes of…

By a quasi-representation of a group $G$ we mean an approximately multiplicative map of $G$ to the unitary group of a unital $C^*$-algebra. A quasi-representation induces a partially defined map at the level $K$-theory. In the early 90s…

The first part of this paper surveys several characterizations of Teichm\"uller space as a subset of the space of representation of the fundamental group of a surface into PSL(2,R). Special emphasis is put on (bounded) cohomological…

Given a convex representation $\rho:\Gamma\to\textrm{PGL}(d,\mathbb{R})$ of a convex co-compact group $\Gamma$ of $\mathbb{H}^k$ we find upper bounds for the quantity $\alpha h_\rho,$ where $h_\rho$ is the entropy of $\rho$ and $\alpha$ is…

In the representation theory of reductive $p$-adic groups $G$, the issue of reducibility of induced representations is an issue of great intricacy. It is our contention, expressed as a conjecture in [3], that there exists a simple geometric…

We compute all signatures of $PSL_2(\mathbb{F}_7)$, and $PSL_2(\mathbb{F}_{11})$ which classify all orientation preserving actions of the groups $PSL_2(\mathbb{F}_7)$, and $PSL_2(\mathbb{F}_{11})$ on compact, connected, orientable surfaces…

We estimate the dimension of the variety of homomorphisms from $\Gamma$ to $ SO(p,q)$ with Zariski dense image, where $\Gamma$ is a Fuchsian group, and $SO(p,q)$ is the indefinite special orthogonal group with signature $(p,q)$.

We prove that divergent, extended geometrically finite (in the sense of Weisman arXiv:2205.07183) representations can be interpreted as restricted Anosov (in the sense of Tholozan--Wang arXiv:2307.02934) representations over certain flow…

We determine the decomposition of the restriction of a length-one toral supercuspidal representation of a connected reductive group to the algebraic derived subgroup, in terms of parametrizing data, and show this restriction has…

Limit sets of $\mathrm{AdS}$-quasi-Fuchsian groups of $\mathrm{PO}(n,2)$ are always Lipschitz submanifolds. The aim of this article is to show that they are never $\mathcal{C}^1$, except for the case of Fuchsian groups. As a byproduct we…
