The family of Deligne tensor categories $\mathrm{Rep}(GL_t)$ is obtained from the categories $\mathbf{Rep}~GL(n)$ of finite dimensional representations of groups $GL(n)$ by interpolating the integer parameter $n$ to complex values.…

Let F be a non-archimedean local field with residual characteristic p, and k an algebraically closed field of characteristic l different from p. We establish a category decomposition of Rep_k(SL_n(F) according to the GL_n(F)-inertially…

Given a compact Lie group $G$, a reconstruction theorem for free $G$-manifolds is proved. As a by-product reconstruction results for locally trivial bundles are presented. Next, the main theorem is generalized to $G$-manifolds with one…

This paper is a sequel to arXiv:1401.6321. We define and study representation categories based on Deligne categories Rep(GL_t), Rep(O_t), Rep(Sp_2t), where t is any (non-integer) complex number. Namely, we define complex rank analogs of the…

We develop foundations for oriented category theory, an extension of $(\infty,\infty)$-category theory obtained by systematic usage of the Gray tensor product, in order to study lax phenomena in higher category theory. As categorical…

We consider the (extended) metaplectic representation of the semidirect product $\mathcal{G}={\mathbb H}^d\rtimes Sp(d,{\mathbb R})$ between the Heisenberg group and the symplectic group. Subgroups $H=\Sigma \rtimes D$, with $\Sigma$ being…

We study the topology of circularly ordered sets. While the algebraic notion is classical, the general topological theory has received comparatively little attention. In this work we provide a self-contained topological exposition and…

Let H\subset\GL(V) be a connected complex reductive group where V is a finite-dimensional complex vector space. Let v\in V and let G=\{g\in\GL(V)\mid gHv = Hv\}. Following Ra\"is we say that the orbit Hv is \emph{characteristic for H} if…

In this paper we initiate the study of racks from the combined perspective of combinatorics and finite group theory. A rack R is a set with a self-distributive binary operation. We study the combinatorics of the partially ordered set {\cal…

We show that loop groups and the universal cover of $\mathrm{Diff}_+(S^1)$ can be expressed as colimits of groups of loops/diffeomorphisms supported in subintervals of $S^1$. Analogous results hold for based loop groups and for the based…

We consider the following class of unitary representations $\pi $ of some (real) Lie group $G$ which has a matched pair of symmetries described as follows: (i) Suppose $G$ has a period-2 automorphism $\tau $, and that the Hilbert space…

Recently, I. J. Leary and A. Minasyan studied the class of groups $G(A,L)$ defined as commensurating HNN-extensions of $\mathbb{Z}^n$. This class, containing the class of Baumslag-Solitar groups, also includes other groups with curious…

One of the most fundamental problems in the theory of finite- dimensional Hopf algebras is their classification over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic 0. This problem is extremely difficult, hence people restrict it to…

In a 2009 paper, Dave Benson gave a description in purely algebraic terms of the mod $p$ homology of $\Omega(BG^\wedge_p)$, when $G$ is a finite group, $BG^\wedge_p$ is the $p$-completion of its classifying space, and $\Omega(BG^\wedge_p)$…

This is a survey of recent results on classification of compact quantum groups of Lie type, by which we mean quantum groups with the same fusion rules and dimensions of representations as for a compact connected Lie group $G$. The…

Let $R$ be a right notherian ring. We introduce the concept of relative singularity category $\Delta_{\mathcal{X}}(R)$ of $R$ with respect to a contravariantly finite subcategory $\mathcal{X}$ of $\rm{mod}\mbox{-}R.$ Along with some…

This unpublished note contains some materials taken from my old study note on groupoids and small categories. It contains a proof for the fact that any groupoid is a group bundle over an equivalence relation. Moreover, the action of a…

Recollements were introduced originally by Beilinson, Bernstein and Deligne to study the derived categories of perverse sheaves, and nowadays become very powerful in understanding relationship among three algebraic, geometric or topological…

We define the category of $G_2$-structures over a Riemannian 7-manifold $M$ and present an isomorphism between this category and a full subcategory of the category of octonion algebras over the ring of smooth real-valued functions…

Let $G$ be a Lie group, $H$ a closed subgroup and $M$ the homogeneous space $G/H$. Each representation $\Psi$ of $H$ determines a $G$-equivariant principal bundle ${\mathcal P}$ on $M$ endowed with a $G$-invariant connection. We consider…
