We establish an irreducibility property for the characters of finite dimensional, irreducible representations of simple Lie algebras (or simple algebraic groups) over the complex numbers, i.e., that the characters of irreducible…
Let k be a field, let G be an affine algebraic k-group and V a finite-dimensional G-module. We say V is rigid if the socle series and radical series coincide for the action of G on each indecomposable summand of V; say V is geometrically…
We introduce the $\star_G$ tensor algebra, in which any finite group $G$ defines the multiplication rule, making equivariance an intrinsic algebraic property rather than an architectural constraint. The framework rests on three…
In arXiv:1210.3178 it was shown that subgroup depth may be computed from the permutation module of the left or right cosets: this holds more generally for a Hopf subalgebra, from which we note in this paper that finite depth of a Hopf…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$ and let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group over $k$. Under some standard hypothesis on $G$, we give a direct approach to the finite $W$-algebra $U(\mathfrak g,e)$…
Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a connected reductive almost simple group over the Witt ring $W(\mathbb{F})$ for $\mathbb{F}$ a finite field of characteristic $p$. Let $R$ and $R'$ be complete noetherian local $W(\mathbb{F})$ -algebras with residue…
We study the symplectomorphism groups $G_{\lambda}=Symp_0(M,\omega_{\lambda})$ of an arbitrary closed manifold M equipped with a 1-parameter family of symplectic forms $\omega_{\lambda}$ with variable cohomology class. We show that the…
Let $(G,G')$ be a type I irreducible reductive dual pair in $\mathrm{Sp}(W_{\mathbb{R}})$. We assume that $(G,G')$ is in the stable range where $G$ is the smaller member. Let $K$ and $K'$ be maximal compact subgroups of $G$ and $G'$…
Let G be a complex reductive Lie group acting on a compact K\"ahler manifold X and assume that the action of a maximal compact subgroup K of G is Hamiltonian. For each extreme point of the convex hull of the momentum map image, there is an…
Let $X$ be a proper geodesic Gromov hyperbolic metric space and let $G$ be a cocompact group of isometries of $X$ admitting a uniform lattice. Let $d$ be the Hausdorff dimension of the Gromov boundary $\partial X$. We define the critical…
Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $2$, $G$ be the algebraic group $\mathrm{SL}_2$ over $K$, and $V$ be the natural representation of $G$. Let $b_k^{G,V}$ denote the number of $G$-indecomposable factors of…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve with good ordinary reduction at an odd prime $p$. Assuming that Greenberg's $\mu=0$ conjecture holds, we show that the $\lambda$-invariants of the Mazur--Tate elements attached to $E$ either stabilise to the…
Let $G$ be a real centre-free semisimple Lie group without compact factors. I prove that irreducible lattices in $G$ are rigid under two types of sublinear distortions. The first result is that the class of lattices in groups that do not…
We consider the finite $W$-algebra $U(\g,e)$ associated to a nilpotent element $e \in \g$ in a simple complex Lie algebra $\g$ of exceptional type. Using presentations obtained through an algorithm based on the PBW-theorem, we verify a…

Let G be a finite group. For each integral representation $\rho$ of G we consider $\rho-$decomposable principally polarized abelian varieties; that is, principally polarized abelian varieties (X,H) with $\rho(G)-$action, of dimension equal…
Let $g$ be an element of a finite group $G$. For a positive integer $n$, let $E_n(g)$ be the subgroup generated by all commutators $[...[[x,g],g],\dots,g]$ over $x\in G$, where $g$ is repeated $n$ times. By Baer's theorem, if $E_n(g)=1$,…
We show that for a reductive group $G$ over a field $k$ the $\mathbb{A}^1$-Euler characteristic of the variety of maximal tori in $G$ is an invertible element of the Grothendieck-Witt ring $\mathrm{GW}(k)$, settling the weak form of a…
Motivated by work of Kac and Lusztig, we define a root system and a Weyl groupoid for a large class of semisimple Yetter-Drinfeld modules over an arbitrary Hopf algebra. The obtained combinatorial structure fits perfectly into an existing…
