For a discrete group G with Fourier algebra A(G), we study the topological centre $Z_t$ of the bidual. If G is amenable, then $Z_t$ = A(G). But if G contains a non-abelian free group $F_r$, we show that $Z_t$ is strictly larger than A(G).…
For the standard Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum group ${\rm U}_q(\mathfrak{g})$ associated with a simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, we construct explicit generators of the centre $Z({\rm U}_q(\mathfrak{g}))$, and determine the relations satisfied…
Let $k$ be a number field, $\mathbf{G}$ an algebraic group defined over $k$, and $\mathbf{G}(k)$ the group of $k$-rational points in $\mathbf{G}.$ We determine the set of functions on $\mathbf{G}(k)$ which are of positive type and…
Let $\mathbf G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field, and let $s\in\mathbf G$ be a semisimple element. We show that the centraliser of $s$ is the semi-direct product of its identity component by its…
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero and $B$ a commutative integral domain that is also a finitely generated $k$-algebra. It is well known that if $k$ is algebraically closed and the "Field Makar-Limanov" invariant FML$(B)$ is equal to…
Let $G$ be a split connected reductive group over a non-archimedan local field $F$. The depth zero stable Bernstein conjecture asserts that there is an algebra isomorphism between the depth zero stable Bernstein center of $G(F)$ and the…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive group defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of characteristic $p$, with Deligne--Lusztig dual $G^\ast$. We show that, over $\overline{\mathbb{Z}}[1/pM]$ where $M$ is the product of all bad primes for…
Let $G$ be a $p$-adic classical group. The representations in a given Bernstein component can be viewed as modules for the corresponding Hecke algebra---the endomorphism algebra of a pro-generator of the given component. Using Heiermann's…
Let $G$ be a compact $p$-adic analytic group with no element of order $p$ and $H$ be its maximal uniform normal subgroup. Let $K$ be a finite extention of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. We show that the Grothendieck group of the completion of the algebra…
We define Bernstein-Gelfand-Ponomarev reflection functors in the cluster categories of hereditary algebras. They are triangle equivalences which provide a natural quiver realization of the "truncated simple reflections" on the set of almost…
A classical theorem of Veldkamp describes the center of an enveloping algebra of a Lie algebra of a semi-simple algebraic group in characteristic $p.$ We generalize this result to a class of Lie algebras with a property that they arise as…
The center $Z(\mathcal{A})$ of an abelian category $\mathcal{A}$ is the endomorphism ring of the identity functor on that category. A localizing subcategory of a Grothendieck category $\mathcal{C}$ is said to be stable if it is stable under…
If $G$ is a finite group, the Grothendieck group ${\mathbf{K}}\_G(G)$ of the category of $G$-equivariant ${\mathbb{C}}$-vector bundles on $G$ (for the action of $G$ on itself by conjugation) is endowed with a structure of (commutative)…
Let $\bar{G}$ be the simple algebraic supergroup $\mathrm{SL}(m|n)$ or $\mathrm{OSp}(m|2n)$ over $\mathbb{C}$. Let $\mathfrak{g}=\mathrm{Lie}(\bar{G})=\mathfrak{g}_{\bar{0}}\oplus\mathfrak{g}_{\bar{1}}$ and let $G=\bar{G}(\mathbb{C})$ where…
The paper follows two interconnected directions. 1. Let $G$ be a Roelcke precompact closed subgroup of the group $\Sym(\omega)$ of permutations of the natural numbers. Then $\Inn(G)$ is closed in $\Aut(G)$, where $\Aut(G)$ carries the…
We consider symmetric d-linear forms of dimension n over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0. The "center" of a form is the analogous of the space of symmetric matrices of a bilinear form. For d>2 the center is a commutative…
Let $Z(\mathcal{W})$ be the center of the finite $W$-algebra $\mathcal{W}({\mathfrak{g}},e)$ associated with $\mathfrak{g}=\text{Lie}(G)$ and a nilpotent element $e\in\mathfrak{g}$ for a connected reductive algebraic group $G$ over an…
For a slightly generalised version of the Jimbo quantum group associated with any finite dimensional simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, we show that its centre is a polynomial algebra. We construct a set of algebraically independent central…
