Let p>2 be a prime, K a finite extension over Q_p and G :=Gal(\bar K/K). We extend Kisin's theory on \phi-modules of finite E(u)-height to give a new classification of G-stable Z_p-lattices in semi-stable representations

Let $G$ be $Sp(2n, \mathbb{R})$ or $SO^*(2n)$. We compute the Dirac index of a large class of unitary representations considered by Vogan in Section 8 of [Vog84], which include all weakly fair $A_{\mathfrak{q}}(\lambda)$ modules and…

Let $k$ be a field with $\text{char}(k)\neq 2$. We prove that all maximal flags of composition algebras over $k$, appear as the $k$-rational $Sp_{6}$-orbits in a Zariski-dense $Sp_{6}$-invariant subset $V^{ss}\subset V=\wedge^{3}V_{6}$,…

We introduce and study a new class of representations of surface groups into Lie groups of Hermitian type, called weakly maximal representations. They are defined in terms of invariants in bounded cohomology and extend considerably the…

The celebrated Smith-Minkowski-Siegel mass formula expresses the mass of a quadratic lattice (L, Q) as a product of local factors, called the local densities of (L,Q). This mass formula is an essential tool for the classification of…

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…

We establish an entropy rigidity theorem for Hitchin representations of all geometrically finite Fuchsian groups which generalizes a theorem of Potrie and Sambarino for Hitchin representations of closed surface groups. In the process, we…

We study the structure of minimal parabolic subgroups of the classical infinite dimensional real simple Lie groups, corresponding to the classical simple direct limit Lie algebras. This depends on the recently developed structure of…

We prove the following result in relative representation theory of a reductive p-adic group $G$: Let $U$ be the unipotent radical of a minimal parabolic subgroup of $G$, and let $\psi$ be an arbitrary smooth character of $U$. Let $S \subset…

Given a reductive group $\boldsymbol{\mathrm{G}}$ over a base scheme $S$, Brylinski and Deligne studied the central extensions of a reductive group $\boldsymbol{\mathrm{G}}$ by $\boldsymbol{\mathrm{K}}_2$, viewing both as sheaves of groups…

Given any representation V of a complex linear reductive Lie group G_0, we show that a larger semi-simple Lie group G with g=g_0 + V + V* + ..., exists precisely when V has a finite number of G_0-orbits. In particular, V admits an open…

A general result by Jackson (Flat algebras and the translation of universal Horn logic to equational logic, J. Symb. Log. 73(1) (2008) 90--128) implies that the lattice of all quasivarieties of groups of exponent dividing $n$ embeds into…
