We develop an affine scheme-theoretic version of Hamiltonian reduction by symplectic groupoids. It works over $\Bbbk=\mathbb{R}$ or $\Bbbk=\mathbb{C}$, and is formulated for an affine symplectic groupoid $\mathcal{G}\rightrightarrows X$, an…

Consider a reductive $p$-adic group $G$, its (complex-valued) Hecke algebra $H(G)$ and the Harish-Chandra--Schwartz algebra $S(G)$. We compute the Hochschild homology groups of $H(G)$ and of $S(G)$, and we describe the outcomes in several…

We compute the algebraic K-theory of the Hecke algebra of a reductive p-adic group G using the fact that the Farrell-Jones Conjecture is known in this context. The main tool will be the properties of the associated Bruhat-Tits building and…

Let H(G) be the Hecke algebra of a reductive p-adic group G. We formulate a conjecture for the ideals in the Bernstein decomposition of H(G). The conjecture says that each ideal is geometrically equivalent to an algebraic variety. Our…

In this talk, we elaborate on the operation of graph contraction introduced by Gurau in his study of the Schwinger-Dyson equations. After a brief review of colored tensor models, we identify the Lie algebra appearing in the Schwinger-Dyson…

We give another proof that a reductive algebraic group is geometrically reductive. We show that a quotient of the semi-stable locus (by a linear action of a reductive algebraic group on a projective scheme) exists, and from this Haboush's…

Let $G$ be a reductive algebraic group---possibly non-connected---over a field $k$ and let $H$ be a subgroup of $G$. If $G= GL_n$ then there is a degeneration process for obtaining from $H$ a completely reducible subgroup $H'$ of $G$; one…

To every minimal model of a complete local isolated cDV singularity Donovan--Wemyss associate a finite dimensional symmetric algebra known as the contraction algebra. We construct the first known standard derived equivalences between these…

The quotient of a Boolean algebra by a cyclic group is proven to have a symmetric chain decomposition. This generalizes earlier work of Griggs, Killian and Savage on the case of prime order, giving an explicit construction for any order,…

For $G$ a symplectic or orthogonal $p$-adic group (not necessarily split), or an inner form of a general linear $p$-adic group, we compute the endomorphism algebras of some induced projective generators \`a la Bernstein of the category of…

The development of the notion of group contraction first introduced by E. In{\"o}n{\"u} and E.P. Wigner in 1953 is briefly reviewed. The fundamental role of the idea of degenerate transformations is stressed. The significance of…

Algebraic contraction is proposed to realize mappings between models Hamiltonians. This transformation contracts the algebra of the degrees of freedom underlying the Hamiltonian. The rigorous mapping between the anisotropic $XXZ$ Heisenberg…

On the level of Lie algebras, the contraction procedure is a method to create a new Lie algebra from a given Lie algebra by rescaling generators and letting the scaling parameter tend to zero. One of the most well-known examples is the…

In this paper we construct $G$-Hilbert schemes for finite group schemes $G$. We find a construction of $G$-Hilbert schemes as relative $G$-Hilbert schemes over the quotient that does not need the Hilbert scheme of $n$ points, works under…

Let G be a connected reductive linear algebraic group. We use geometric methods to investigate G-completely reducible subgroups of G, giving new criteria for G-complete reducibility. We show that a subgroup of G is G-completely reducible if…

Let $G$ be a complex affine algebraic group, and let $\sigma_1$ and $\sigma_2$ be commuting anti-holomorphic involutions of $G$. We construct an algebraic family of algebraic groups over the complex projective line and a real structure on…

In a recent article we introduced a mechanism for producing a presentation of the descent algebra of the symmetric group as a quiver with relations, the mechanism arising from a new construction of the descent algebra as a homomorphic image…

The diagonal reduction algebra of a reductive Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ is a localization of the Mickelsson algebra associated to the symmetric pair $(\mathfrak{g}\times\mathfrak{g},\, \mathfrak{g})$. In 2010, Khoroshkin and Ogievetsky…

Mathematical physicists have studied degenerations of Lie groups and their representations, which they call contractions. In this paper we study these contractions, and also other families, within the framework of algebraic families of…

We prove the exactness of a descent sequence relating the algebraic cobordism groups of a scheme and its envelopes. Analogous sequences for Chow groups and K-theory were previously proved by Gillet.
