In an earlier work, we defined a ``generalised Temperley-Lieb algebra'' $TL_{r,1,n}$ corresponding to the imprimitive reflection group $G(r,1,n)$ as a quotient of the cyclotomic Hecke algebra. In this work we introduce the generalised…
Let R be a commutative ring and let n,m be two positive integers. Let be the polynomial ring in m x n commuting independent variables R. The symmetric group on n letters acts diagonally on A(n,m). We give generators and relations of the…
We study the generating polynomial of the flag major index with each one-dimensional character, called signed Mahonian polynomial, over the colored permutation group, the wreath product of a cyclic group with the symmetric group. Using the…
The paper is devoted to the study of some well-knonw combinatorial functions on the symmetric group $\sn$ --- the major index $\maj$, the descent number $\des$, and the inversion number $\inv$ --- from the representation-theoretic point of…
In this paper, we present the construction of a geometric object, called a generalized flag geometry, $(X^+;X^-)$, corresponding to a (2k +1)-graded Lie algebra $g=g_k\oplus\dots\oplus g_{-k}$. We prove that $(X^+;X^-) can be realized…
Analogues of 1-shuffle elements for complex reflection groups of type $G(m,1,n)$ are introduced. A geometric interpretation for $G(m,1,n)$ in terms of rotational permutations of polygonal cards is given. We compute the eigenvalues, and…
We study a family of complex representations of the group GL(n,O), where O is the ring of integers of a non-archimedean local field F. These representations occur in the restriction of the Grassmann representation of GL(n,F) to its maximal…
This paper introduces an analogue of the Solomon descent algebra for the complex reflection groups of type $G(r,1,n)$. As with the Solomon descent algebra, our algebra has a basis given by sums of `distinguished' coset representatives for…
For each Baumslag-Solitar group BS(m,n) (m,n nonzero integers), a totally disconnected, locally compact group, G_{m,n}, is constructed so that BS(m,n) is identified with a dense subgroup of G_{m,n}. The scale function on G_{m,n}, a…
The purpose of this paper is to introduce the concept of reflecting numbers to the realm of number theory and to classify reflecting numbers of certain types. For us, reflecting numbers are coming from congruent numbers, above congruent…
We study the complex reflection groups G(r,p,n). By considering these groups as subgroups of the wreath products Z_r wr S_n, and by using Clifford theory, we define combinatorial parameters and descent representations of G(r,p,n),…
Let n>0 be an integer and let B_{n} denote the hyperoctahedral group of rank n. The group B_{n} acts on the polynomial ring Q[x_{1},...,x_{n},y_{1},...,y_{n}] by signed permutations simultaneously on both of the sets of variables…
In this work, we consider the Dunkl complex reflection operators related to the group $G(m,1,N)$ in the complex plane \begin{align*} T_i=\frac{\partial}{\partial z_i}+k_0\sum_{j\neq i}\sum_{r=0}^{m-1}\frac{1-s_i^{-r}(i,j)s_i^r}…
We study the specializations $\mathcal{L}_{g,n}^\epsilon$ at roots of unity $\epsilon$ of odd order of the graph algebras, associated to a simply-connected complex semi-simple algebraic group $G$ and a compact oriented surface…
We introduce the notion of a Mahonian pair. Consider the set, P^*, of all words having the positive integers as alphabet. Given finite subsets S,T of P^*, we say that (S,T) is a Mahonian pair if the distribution of the major index, maj,…
Let $r$ and $n$ be positive integers, let $G_n$ be the complex reflection group of $n \times n$ monomial matrices whose entries are $r^{\textrm{th}}$ roots of unity and let $0 \leq k \leq n$ be an integer. Recently, Haglund, Rhoades and…
We study the number of ways of factoring elements in the complex reflection groups G(r,s,n) as products of reflections. We prove a result that compares factorization numbers in G(r,s,n) to those in the symmetric group on n letters, and we…
A mixed dominating set $S$ of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a subset $ S \subseteq V \cup E$ such that each element $v\in (V \cup E) \setminus S$ is adjacent or incident to at least one element in $S$. The mixed domination number $\gamma_m(G)$ of a…
For positive integers k,n, we investigate the simplicial complex NM_k(n) of all graphs G on vertex set [n] such that every matching in G has size less than k. This complex (along with other associated cell complexes) is found to be homotopy…
We consider a finite group $G$ acting on a manifold $M$. For any equivariant Morse function, which is a generic condition, there does not always exist an equivariant metric $g$ on $M$ such that the pair $(f,g)$ is Morse-Smale. Here, the…
