It is shown that, under mild conditions, a complex reflection group $G(r,p,n)$ may be decomposed into a set-wise direct product of cyclic subgroups. This property is then used to extend the notion of major index and a corresponding Hilbert…

In this work, we derive the low index subgroups of the extended Hecke, Hecke and the Picard groups using tools in color symmetry theory. We also present the low index subgroups of the modular group.

We are building a theory of simple Hurwitz numbers for the reflection groups B and D parallel to the classical theory for the symmetric group. We also study analogs of the cut-and-join operators. An algebraic description of Hurwitz numbers…

We consider the group algebra over the field of complex numbers of the Weyl group of type B (the hyperoctahedral group, or the group of signed permutations) and of the Weyl group of type D (the demihyperoctahedral group, or the group of…

We consider the primitive quaternionic reflection groups of type P for H^2 that are obtained from Blichfeldt's collineation groups for C^4.These are seen to be intimately related to the maximal set of five quaternionic mutually unbiased…

There are 432 strongly squarefree symmetric bilinear forms of signature $(2,1)$ defined over $\Z[\sqrt{2}]$ whose integral isometry groups are generated up to finite index by finitely many reflections. We adapted Allcock's method (based on…

We study the moduli space of discrete, faithful, type-preserving representations of the modular group $\mathbf{PSL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$ into $\mathbf{PU}(3,1)$. The entire moduli space $\mathcal{M}$ is a union of…

We study a family of Zariski dense finitely generated discrete subgroups of $\mathrm{Isom}(\mathbb{H}^d)$, $d \geqslant 2$, defined by the following property: any group in this family contains at least one reflection in a hyperplane. As an…

Let $A$ be a cocommutative finite dimensional Hopf algebra over the field with two elements, satisfying some mild hypothesis. We set up a descent spectral sequence which computes the Picard group of the stable category of modules over $A$.…

Our main goal in this paper is to construct the first explicit fundamental domain of the Picard modular group acting on the complex hyperbolic space ${\bf CH}^{2}$. The complex hyperbolic space is a Hermitian symmetric space, its bounded…

An integral hyperbolic lattice is called reflective if its automorphism group is generated by reflections, up to finite index. Since 1981, it is known that their number is essentially finite. We show that K3 surfaces over C with reflective…

Algebra and representation theory in modular tensor categories can be combined with tools from topological field theory to obtain a deeper understanding of rational conformal field theories in two dimensions: It allows us to establish the…

We continue the program, presented in previous Symposia, of discretizing physical models. In particular we calculate the integral Lorentz transformations with the help of discrete reflection groups, and use them for the covariance of…

We consider the finite Weyl groups of classical type -- $W(A_{r})$ for $r \geq 1$, $W(B_{r}) = W(C_{r})$ for $r \geq 2$, and $W(D_{r})$ for $r \geq 4$ -- as supergroups in which the reflections are of odd superdegree. Viewing the…

In this work, we systematically derive explicit expressions for the Poincar\'e Group generators on arbitrary-rank tensors and spinor-tensors in $D=3+1$ and $D=2+1$ spacetimes, thus generalizing previous works in the literature for the…

Type IIA string theory compactified on a rigid Calabi-Yau threefold gives rise to a classical moduli space that carries an isometric action of U(2,1). Various quantum corrections break this continuous isometry to a discrete subgroup.…

In this paper, we investigate the group of endotrivial modules for certain $p$-groups. Such groups were already been computed by Carlson-Th\'evenaz using the theory of support varieties; however, we provide novel homotopical proofs of their…

This article is devoted to the investigation of semidirect products of groups of loops and groups of diffeomorphisms of finite and infinte dimensional real, complex and quaternion manifolds. Necessary statements about quaternion manifolds…

Given a quaternionic form G of a p-adic classical group (p odd) we classify all cuspidal irreducible representations of G with coefficients in an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from p. We prove two theorems: At…

We show that the ring of modular forms with characters for $\mathrm{O}(2,4;\mathbb{Z})$ is generated by forms of weights 4, 4, 6, 8, 10, 10, 12, and 30 with three relations of weights 8, 20, and 60. The proof is based on the study of a…
