Let $G=1+A$ be a finite pattern group over the finite field ${\mathbb{F}}_q$. We give a natural bijection between coadjoint orbits of $G$ and its equivalent classes of irreducible representations. More precisely, given any $T\in A^t$,…
In this article, we study the derivations of group algebras of some important groups, namely, dihedral ($D_{2n}$), Dicyclic ($T_{4n}$) and Semi-dihedral ($SD_{8n}$). First, we explicitly classify all inner derivations of a group algebra…
Using the entropic inequalities for Shannon and Tsallis entropies new inequalities for some classical polynomials are obtained. To this end, an invertible mapping for the irreducible unitary representation of groups $SU(2)$ and $SU(1,1)$…
Let G be a connected reductive group over a field of characteristic zero, and consider an orthogonal representation of G. We give a simple criterion for whether the representation lifts to the spin group, in terms of the highest weights of…
We study lowest-weight irreducible representations of rational Cherednik algebras attached to the complex reflection groups G(m,r,n) in characteristic p. Our approach is mostly from the perspective of commutative algebra. By studying the…
Let $X$ be a normal algebraic variety over a finitely generated field $k$ of characteristic zero, and let $\ell$ be a prime. Say that a continuous $\ell$-adic representation $\rho$ of $\pi_1^{\text{\'et}}(X_{\bar k})$ is arithmetic if there…
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 study the distribution of non-discrete orbits of geometrically finite groups in $\operatorname{SO}(n,1)$ acting on $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, and more generally on the quotient of $\operatorname{SO}(n,1)$ by a horospherical subgroup. Using…
Given a finite group $G$, its double Burnside ring $B(G,G)$, has a natural duality operation that arises from considering opposite $(G,G)$-bisets. In this article, we systematically study the subgroup of units of $B(G,G)$, where elements…
We consider smooth representations of the unit group $G = \mathcal{A}^{\times}$ of a finite-dimensional split basic algebra $\mathcal{A}$ over a non-Archimedean local field. In particular, we prove a version of Gutkin's conjecture, namely,…
The Fibonacci groups $F(n)$ are known to exhibit significantly different behaviour depending on the parity of $n$. We extend known results for $F(n)$ for odd $n$ to the family of Fractional Fibonacci groups $F^{k/l}(n)$. We show that for…
We determine all genuine special unipotent representations of real spin groups and quaternionic spin groups, and show in particular that all of them are unitarizable. We also show that there are no genuine special unipotent representations…
A number of years ago, Kumar Murty pointed out to me that the computation of the fundamental group of a Hilbert modular surface ([7],IV,${\S}$6), and the computation of the congruence subgroup kernel of SL(2) ([6]) were surprisingly…
We show that principal series representations of the real split odd orthogonal group have non-vanishing rank one bessel models of a very particular type.
Generalising previous results on classical braid groups by Artin and Lin, we determine the values of m, n $\in$ N for which there exists a surjection between the n-and m-string braid groups of an orientable surface without boundary. This…
One of the main goals of these notes is to explain how rotations in reals^n are induced by the action of a certain group, Spin(n), on reals^n, in a way that generalizes the action of the unit complex numbers, U(1), on reals^2, and the…
We study unitary representations of groups in Krein spaces, irreducibility criteria and integral decompositions. Our main tool is the theory of Krein subspaces and their (reproducing) kernels and a variant of Choquet's theorem.
We give the full representation theory of the gravitational extended corner symmetry group in two-dimensions. This includes projective representations, which correspond to representations of the quantum corner symmetry group. We find that…
The article establishes a long list of rigidity properties of lattices in G = SO(n,1) with n>=3 and G = SU(n,1) with n>=2 that are analogous to superrigidity of lattices in higher-rank Lie groups. The arguments are set in the context of…
We prove that the fundamental group of any integer homology 3-sphere different from the 3-sphere admits irreducible representations of its fundamental group in SL(2,C). For hyperbolic integer homology spheres this comes with the definition,…
