This is the first of a series of papers devoted to certain pairs of commuting nilpotent elements in a semisimple Lie algebra that enjoy quite remarkable properties and which are expected to play a major role in Representation theory. The…

For a Weyl group W and its reflection representation mathfrak{h}, we find the character and Hilbert series for a quotient ring of C[mathfrak{h} oplus mathfrak{h}^*] by an ideal containing the W--invariant polynomials without constant term.…

A strong Gelfand pair (G,H) is a group G together with a subgroup H such that every irreducible character of H induces a multiplicity-free character of G. We classify the strong Gelfand pairs of the special linear groups SL(2, p) where p is…

We introduce a category of $q$-oscillator representations over the quantum affine superalgebras of type $D$ and construct a new family of its irreducible representations. Motivated by the theory of super duality, we show that these…

The Weyl group of the Cuntz algebra O_n, with n finite, is investigated. This is (isomorphic to) the group of polynomial automorphisms of O_n, namely those induced by unitaries that can be written as finite sums of words in the canonical…

Let W be a Weyl group. We define a new basis for the Grothendieck group of representations of W. This basis contains on the one hand the special representations of W and on the other hand the representations carried by the left cells of W.…

Recently, we formulated the $q$-Garnier system and its variations as translations of an extended affine Weyl group of type $A^{(1)}_{2n+1}\times A^{(1)}_1\times A^{(1)}_1$. On the other hand, those systems admit particular solutions in…

The action of a Weyl group on the associated weight lattice induces an additive action on the symmetric algebra and a multiplicative action on the group algebra of the lattice. We show that the coinvariant space of the multiplicative action…

In this paper, we define a mixed-base number system over a Weyl group of type $D$, the group even-signed permutations. We introduce one-to-one correspondence between positive integers and elements of Weyl groups of type $D$ after…

In this paper we show that the leading coefficient $\mu(y,w)$ of some Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials $P_{y,w}$ with $y,w$ in an affine Weyl group of type $\tilde A_n $ is $n+2$. This fact has some consequences on the dimension of first…

Let W be the complex reflection group G(e,1,n). In the author's previous paper, Hall-Littlewood functions associated to W were introduced. In the special case where W is a Weyl group of type B_n, they are closely related to Green…

Chinta and Gunnells introduced a rather intricate multi-parameter Weyl group action on rational functions on a torus, which, when the parameters are specialized to certain Gauss sums, describes the functional equations of Weyl group…

For an irreducible complex reflection group $W$ of rank $n$ containing $N$ reflections, we put $g=2N/n$ and construct a $(g+1)^n$-dimensional irreducible representation of the Cherednik algebra which is (as a vector space) a quotient of the…

This paper introduces and systematically studies a new class of non-commutative algebras -- Weyl-type and Witt-type algebras -- generated by differential operators with exponential and generalized power function coefficients. We define the…

We show that except in several cases conjugacy classes of classical Weyl groups $W(B_n)$ and $W(D_n)$ are of type {\rm D}. We prove that except in three cases Nichols algebras of irreducible Yetter-Drinfeld ({\rm YD} in short )modules over…

It is well known that the pair $(\mathcal{S}_n,\mathcal{S}_{n-1})$ is a Gelfand pair where $\mathcal{S}_n$ is the symmetric group on $n$ elements. In this paper, we prove that if $G$ is a finite group then $(G\wr \mathcal{S}_n, G\wr…

Given a compact Gelfand pair (G,K) and a locally compact group L, we characterize the class P_K^\sharp(G,L) of continuous positive definite functions f:G\times L\to \C which are bi-invariant in the G-variable with respect to K. The…

Let $G=GL_{n}(\mathbb{C})$ and $1\ne\psi:\mathbb{C}\to\mathbb{C}^{\times}$ be an additive character. Let $U$ be the subgroup of upper triangular unipotent matrices in $G$. Denote by $\theta$ the character $\theta:U\to\mathbb{C}$ given by \[…

Let W be a real symplectic space and (G,G') an irreducible dual pair in Sp(W), in the sense of Howe, with G compact. Let $\widetilde{\mathrm{G}}$ be the preimage of G in the metaplectic group $\widetilde{\mathrm{Sp}}(\mathrm{W})$. Given an…

From a certain induced representation $\mathcal{P}_\ell$ of a double affine Weyl group, we construct a ring $\mathcal{F}_\ell$ that is isomorphic to the fusion ring, or Verlinde algebra, associated to affine Lie algebras at fixed positive…
