Let $\mathbf{G}$ be a connected reductive algebraic group over an algebraic closure $\overline{\mathbb{F}_p}$ of the finite field of prime order $p$ and let $F : \mathbf{G} \to \mathbf{G}$ be a Frobenius endomorphism with $G = \mathbf{G}^F$…

An algebra group over a field $F$ is a group of the form $G = 1+J$ where $J$ is a finite-dimensional nilpotent associative $F$-algebra. A theorem of M. Boyarchenko asserts that, in the case where $F$ is a non-archimedean local field, every…

Let G be a connected reductive group defined over a finite field F_q and let L be the Levi subgroup (defined over F_q) of a parabolic subgroup P of G. We define a linear map from class functions on L(F_q) to class functions on G(F_q). This…

We start with a small paradigm shift about group representations, namely the observation that restriction to a subgroup can be understood as an extension-of-scalars. We deduce that, given a group $G$, the derived and the stable categories…

Let G be a Lie group, $g = Lie(G)$ - its Lie algebra, $g*$ - the dual vector space and $\widehat G$ - the set of equivalence classes of unitary irreducible representations of $G$. The orbit method [1] establishes a correspondence between…

We are given a finite group $H$, an automorphism $\tau$ of $H$ of order $r$, a Galois extension $L/K$ of fields of characteristic zero with cyclic Galois group $\langle\sigma\rangle$ of order $r$, and an absolutely irreducible…

Let G(K) be the group of K-rational points of a connected adjoint simple algebraic group defined over a non-archimedean local field K. In this paper we classify the unipotent representations of G(K) in terms of the geometry of the Langlands…

We provide a complete classification for regular subalgebras $B \subset M$ of injective factors satisfying a natural relative commutant condition. We show that such subalgebras are classified by their associated amenable discrete measured…

Let G be a locally compact group and let K be a compact subgroup of Aut(G), the group of automorphisms of G. The pair $(G, K )$ is a Gelfand pair if the algebra $L^{1}_{K}(G)$ of K-invariant integrable functions on G is commutative under…

The automorphism group of the Galois covering induced by a pluri-canonical generic covering of a projective space is investigated. It is shown that by means of such coverings one obtains, in dimensions one and two, serieses of specific…

We introduce the notion of G-hypergeometric function, where G is a complex Lie group. In the case when G is a complex torus, this notion amounts to the notion of Gelfand's A-hypergeometric function. We show that the integral $\int…

If A is an algebra of functions on X, there are many cases when X can be regarded as included in Hom(A,C) as the set of ring homomorphisms. In this paper the corresponding results for the symmetric products of X are introduced. It is shown…

Here $\underline{M}$ denotes a pair $(M,A)$ of a manifold and a subset (e.g. $A=\partial M$ or $A=\emptyset$). We construct for each $\underline{M}$ its motion groupoid $\mathrm{Mot}_{\underline{M}}$, whose object set is the power set $…

Consider a finite-dimensional real vector space equipped with a finite group acting unitarily on it. We address the general problem of constructing Euclidean stable embeddings of the quotient space of orbits. Our approach is based on…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$ and let $G$ be a finite cyclic group of order $n$. In this note we prove, using induction on the number of prime divisors of $n$, that $R_K(G)/I \cong \mathbb{Z}[X]/\langle…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group defined over the finite field $\F_q$, where $q$ is a power of a good prime for $G$, and let $F$ denote the corresponding Frobenius endomorphism, so that $G^F$ is a finite reductive group. Let…

This paper applies the decomposition theorem in intersection cohomology to geometric invariant theory quotients, relating the intersection cohomology of the quotient to that of the semistable points for the action. Suppose a connected…

We introduce a new approach to representation theory of finite groups that uses some basic algebraic geometry and allows to do all the theory without using characters. With this approach, to any finite group $G$ we associate a finite number…

For actions with a dense orbit of a connected noncompact simple Lie group $G$, we obtain some global rigidity results when the actions preserve certain geometric structures. In particular, we prove that for a $G$-action to be equivalent to…

The notion of Gelfand pair (G, K) can be generalized if we consider homogeneous vector bundles over G/K instead of the homogeneous space G/K and matrix-valued functions instead of scalar-valued functions. This gives the definition of…
