In this paper, we give a construction of certain induced complementary series of the universal covering of the symplectic groups. There are abundant such representations besides those of linear groups. We achieve this by applying invariant…

We discuss how one uses the thermodynamic formalism to produce metrics on higher Teichm\"uller spaces. Our higher Teichm\"uller spaces will be spaces of Anosov representations of a word-hyperbolic group into a semi-simple Lie group. We…

In arXiv:1802.02833 Guichard and Wienhard introduced the notion of $\Theta$-positivity, a generalization of Lusztig's total positivity to real Lie groups that are not necessarily split. Based on this notion, we introduce in this paper…

We study the affine variety $L_{n}(\mathfrak{g})$ of Lie algebra representations, the collection of all homomorphisms from an arbitrary $n$-dimensional Lie algebra into a fixed real semi-simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. Using techniques…

We study representations of the classical infinite dimensional real simple Lie groups $G$ induced from factor representations of minimal parabolic subgroups $P$. This makes strong use of the recently developed structure theory for those…

Let $G$ be a finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent group. The representation zeta function $\zeta_G(s)$ of $G$ enumerates twist isoclasses of finite-dimensional irreducible complex representations of $G$. We prove that $\zeta_G(s)$ has…

In this note we give an overview of some of our recent work on Anosov representations of discrete groups into higher rank semisimple Lie groups.

We study the representation theory of various convolution algebras attached to the $q$-deformation of $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{R})$ from an algebraic perspective and beyond the unitary case. We show that many aspects of the classical…

We give a characterization of the Anosov condition for reducible representations in terms of the eigenvalue magnitudes of the irreducible block factors of its block diagonalization. As in previous work, these Anosov representations comprise…

Universal circles, introduced by Thurston and Calegari--Dunfield, are not well understood in general. Recently, the author together with Taylor showed that Anosov foliations with branching admit nonconjugate universal circles. We continue…

Let $U_\varepsilon({\mathfrak g})$ be the standard simply connected version of the Drinfeld-Jumbo quantum group at an odd primitive m-th root of unity $\varepsilon$. The center of $U_\varepsilon({\mathfrak g})$ contains a huge commutative…

A family of infinite-dimensional irreducible $*$-representations on $\mathcal{H}\simeq L^2(\mathbb{R})\otimes\mathbb{C}^N$ is defined for a quantum-deformed Lorentz algebra $\mathscr{U}_{\bf q}(sl_2)\otimes \mathscr{U}_{\widetilde{\bf…

The family of Deligne tensor categories $\mathrm{Rep}(GL_t)$ is obtained from the categories $\mathbf{Rep}~GL(n)$ of finite dimensional representations of groups $GL(n)$ by interpolating the integer parameter $n$ to complex values.…

We extend several notions and results from the classical Patterson-Sullivan theory to the setting of Anosov subgroups of higher rank semisimple Lie groups, working primarily with invariant Finsler metrics on associated symmetric spaces. In…

We prove the vanishing of the geometric Bloch-Kato Selmer group for the adjoint representation of a Galois representation associated to regular algebraic polarized cuspidal automorphic representations under an assumption on the residual…

We show that if a cusped Borel Anosov representation from a lattice $\Gamma \subset \mathsf{PGL}_2(\mathbb{R})$ to $\mathsf{PGL}_d(\mathbb{R})$ contains a unipotent element with a single Jordan block in its image, then it is necessarily a…

We explicitly describe the Teichmuller space TH_n of hyperelliptic surfaces in terms of natural and effective coordinates as the space of certain (2n-6)-tuples of distinct points on the ideal boundary of the Poincare disc. We essentially…

An oscillator group $G$ is a semidirect product of a Heisenberg group with a one-parameter group. In this article we construct Olshanski semigroups for infinite-dimensional oscillator groups. These are complex involutive semigroups which…

Relativistic integrable field theories like the sine-Gordon equation have an infinite set of conserved charges. In a light-front formalism these conserved charges are closely related to the integrable modified KdV hierarchy at the classical…
