We show the equality of the local Asai L-functions defined via the Rankin-Selberg method and the Langlands-Shahidi method for a square integrable representation of GL(n,E). As a consequence we characterise reducibility of certain induced…

Given a matrix factorization, we use the Atiyah class to give an algebraic Chern-Weil type construction to its Chern character; this allows us to realize the Chern character in an explicit way. It also generalizes the existing result to any…

Let $E/F$ be a quadratic extension of non-Archimedean local fields of characteristic 0. Let $D$ be the unique quaternion division algebra over $F$ and fix an embedding of $E$ to $D$. Then, $\mathrm{GL}_m(D)$ can be regarded as a subgroup of…

We consider integrable, category O-modules of indecomposable symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebras. We prove that unique factorization of tensor products of irreducible modules holds in this category, upto twisting by one dimensional modules.…

In this paper, we used the free fields of Wakimoto to construct a class of irreducible representations for the general linear Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{gl}_{m|n}(\mathbb{C})$. The structures of the representations over the general linear…

We study presentations, defined by Sidki, resulting in groups $y(m,n)$ that are conjectured to be finite orthogonal groups of dimension $m+1$ in characteristic two. This conjecture, if true, shows an interesting pattern, possibly connected…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q$ elements, where $q$ is the power of an odd prime, and let $\mathrm{GSp}(2n, \mathbb{F}_q)$ and $\mathrm{GO}^{\pm}(2n, \mathbb{F}_q)$ denote the symplectic and orthogonal groups of similitudes…

Let $G$ be a $p$-divisible group over a complete discrete valuation ring $R$ of characteristic $p$. The generic fiber of $G$ determines a Galois representation $\rho$. The image of $\rho$ admits a ramification filtration and a Lie…

Recently, a strong exponential character bound has been established in [3] for all elements $g \in \mathbf{G}^F$ of a finite reductive group $\mathbf{G}^F$ which satisfy the condition that the centraliser $C_{\mathbf{G}}(g)$ is contained in…

Let $R$ be a gcd-domain (for example let $R$ be a unique factorization domain), and let $(a_n)_{n\geqslant1}$ be a sequence of nonzero elements in $R$. We prove that $\gcd(a_n,a_m)=a_{\gcd(n,m)}$ for all $n,m\geqslant1$ if and only if…

We investigate a beautiful conjecture of T. Wilde on character values and element orders of finite groups. We reduce it to a statement on nearly simple groups that can be checked ``prime by prime". For these groups, we show that a strong…

Let $E$ be a non-Archimedian local field of characteristic zero and residue characteristic $p$. Let ${\bf G}$ be a connected reductive group defined over $E$ and $\pi$ an irreducible admissible representation of $G={\bf G}(E)$. A result of…

Proving a conjecture of Miller, we show that as $n$ tends to infinity almost all entries in the character table of $S_n$ are divisible by any given prime power. This extends our earlier work which treated divisibility by primes.

We study the semisimplification of the full karoubian subcategory generated by the irreducible finite dimensional representations of the algebraic supergroup $GL(m|n)$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. This…

We consider sequences of degrees of ordinary irreducible $S_n$-characters. We assume that the corresponding Young diagrams have rows and columns bounded by some linear function of $n$ with leading coefficient less than one. We show that any…

In this paper we prove a local converse theorem for GL_n over the archimedean local fields, which characterizes an infinitesimal equivalence class of irreducible admissible representations of GL_n(R) (or GL_n(C)) in terms of twisted…

We calculate the universal character ring of a class of two-generator, one-relator groups. As an application we give a less technical proof of a result in [LT] on the universal character ring of the (-2,3,2n+1)-pretzel knot. We also give an…

Behind this sophisticated title hides an elementary exercise on Clifford theory for index two subgroups and self-dual/conjugate-dual representations. When applied to semi-simple representations of the Weil-Deligne group $W'_F$ of a non…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $m$ be an integer. We employ the notation $g_i$ to represent elements $(g,i)$ in the Cartesian product $G \times \mathbb{Z}_m$, where $\mathbb{Z}_m$ denotes integers modulo $m$. For given sets $T_{i,j}…
