An extensive group-theoretical treatment of linear relativistic field equations on Minkowski spacetime of arbitrary dimension D>2 is presented in these lecture notes. To start with, the one-to-one correspondence between linear relativistic…
We develop the theory of maximal representations of the fundamental group of a compact connected oriented surface with boundary, into a group of Hermitian type. For any such representation we define the Toledo invariant, for which we…
Recently, Suyari has proposed a generalization of Shannon-Khinchin axioms, which determines a class of entropies containing the well-known Tsalis and Havrda-Charvat entropies [H. Suyari, IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory, vol. 50, pp. 1783-1787, Aug.…
We prove that level $5$ Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev $\mathrm{SO}(3)$ quantum representations, also known as the Fibonacci representations, of mapping class groups are locally rigid. More generally, for any prime level $\ell$, we prove that…
Let $G$ be a p-adic classical group (orthogonal, symplectic, unitary) and $\pi$ be an epipelagic representation of $G$ defined by Reeder-Yu. Using M{\oe}glin's theory of extended cuspidal supports and Bushnell-Kutzko's theory of covering…
The first part of the paper explains how to encode a one-cocycle and a two-cocycle on a group $G$ with values in its representation by networks of planar trivalent graphs with edges labelled by elements of $G$, elements of the…
We prove using a novel random matrix model that all right-angled Artin groups have a sequence of finite dimensional unitary representations that strongly converge to the regular representation. We deduce that this result applies also to:…
We investigate the group contraction method for various space-time groups, including SO(3)->E_2, SO(3,1)->G_3, SO(5-h,h)->P(3,1) (h=1 or 2), and its consequences for representations of these groups. Following strictly quantum mechanical…
We prove a lifting theorem for odd Frattini covers of finite groups. Using this, we characterize solvable groups and more generally p-solvable groups in terms of containing a triple of elements of distinct prime power orders with product 1.…
We use the weighted Hsiung-Minkowski integral formulas and Brendle's inequality to show new rigidity results. First, we prove Alexandrov type results for closed embedded hypersurfaces with radially symmetric higher order mean curvature in a…
In this paper we give a simple (local) proof of two principal results about irreducible tempered representations of general linear groups over a non-archimedean local division algebra. We give a proof of the parameterization of the…
In this article we study convexity properties of distance functions in infinite dimensional Finsler unitary groups, such as the full unitary group, the unitary Schatten perturbations of the identity and unitary groups of finite von Neumann…
In this paper, we construct cataclysm deformations for $\theta$-Anosov representations into a semisimple non-compact connected real Lie group $G$ with finite center, where $\theta \subset \Delta$ is a subset of the simple roots that is…
Let $H$ be a local net of real Hilbert subspaces of a complex Hilbert space on the family of double cones of the spacetime $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$, covariant with respect to a positive energy, unitary representation $U$ of the Poincar\'e group,…
This paper develops a theory of conformal density at infinity for groups with contracting elements. We start by introducing a class of convergence boundary encompassing many known hyperbolic-like boundaries, on which a detailed study of…
In this paper, we establish Basmajian's identity for $(1,1,2)$-hyperconvex Anosov representations from a free group into $PGL(n, R)$. We then study our series identities on holomorphic families of Cantor non-conformal repellers associated…
A group is irreducibly represented if it has a faithful irreducible unitary representation. For countable groups, a criterion for irreducible representability is given, which generalises a result obtained for finite groups by W. Gasch\"utz…
In this paper, we continue our study of abstract representations of elementary subgroups of Chevalley groups of rank $\geq 2.$ First, we extend our earlier methods to analyze representations of elementary groups over arbitrary associative…
We prove that a 3--dimensional hyperbolic cusp with convex polyhedral boundary is uniquely determined by its Gauss image. Furthermore, any spherical metric on the torus with cone singularities of negative curvature and all closed…
We show that averages on geometrically finite Fuchsian groups, when embedded via a representation into a space of matrices, have a homogeneous asymptotic limit under appropriate scaling. This generalizes some of the results of Maucourant to…
