Important connections in representation theory arise from resolving a finite-dimensional algebra by an endomorphism algebra of a generator-cogenerator with finite global dimension; for instance, Auslander's correspondence, classical…

The so-called Garnir relations are very important in the representation theory of the symmetric groups. In this paper, we give a possible extension of Garnir relations for Weyl groups in general.

In this paper, some zeros and non-zeros in the character tables of symmetric groups are displayed in the partition forms. In particular, more zeros of self conjugate partitions beside odd permutations are heavily investigated.

In this paper we show that Atkin and Swinnerton-Dyer type of congruences hold for weakly modular forms (modular forms that are permitted to have poles at cusps). Unlike the case of original congruences for cusp forms, these congruences are…

We present (with proof) a new family of decomposable Specht modules for the symmetric group in characteristic 2. These Specht modules are labelled by partitions of the form $(a,3,1^b)$, and are the first new examples found for thirty years.…

Building on work of Saxl, we classify the multiplicity-free permutation characters of all symmetric groups of degree 66 or more. A corollary is a complete list of the irreducible characters of symmetric groups (again of degree 66 or more)…

Let $F$ be a $p$-adic field of characteristic zero and odd residual characteristic. Let $\mathbf{Sp}_{2n}(F)$ denote the symplectic group defined over $F$, where $n\geq 2$. We prove that the Speh representations $\mathcal{U}(\delta,2)$,…

The construction of all irreducible modules of the symmetric groups over an arbitrary field which reduce to Specht modules in the case of fields of characteristic zero is given by G.D.James. Hal{\i}c{\i}o\u{g}lu and Morris describe a…

Webs are planar graphs with boundary that describe morphisms in a diagrammatic representation category for $\mathfrak{sl}_k$. They are studied extensively by knot theorists because braiding maps provide a categorical way to express link…

We characterize the irreducible representations of the general linear group GL(V) that have multiplicity 1 in the direct sum of all Schur modules of a given exterior power of V. These have come up in connection with the relations of the…

Trades are important objects in combinatorial design theory that may be realized as certain elements of kernels of inclusion matrices. Total trades were introduced recently by Ghorbani, Kamali and Khosravshahi, who showed that over a field…

We continue investigating the superintegrability property of matrix models, i.e. factorization of the matrix model averages of characters. This paper focuses on the Gaussian Hermitian example, where the role of characters is played by the…

The Lusztig-Shoji algorithm is generalized to a complex reflection group $W$ and give us a version of the Springer correspondence of $W$. We show that the combinatorics of generalized Springer correspondences of dihedral groups of order…

We construct a canonical isomorphism between the Bethe algebra acting on a multiplicity space of a tensor product of evaluation gl_N[t]-modules and the scheme-theoretic intersection of suitable Schubert varieties. Moreover, we prove that…

We study a natural map from representations of a free group of rank g in GL(n,C), to holomorphic vector bundles of degree 0 over a compact Riemann surface X of genus g, associated with a Schottky uniformization of X. Maximally unstable flat…

Schur multipliers are basic linear maps on matrix algebras. Their close albeit still intriguing connection with Fourier multipliers establishes a powerful bridge between harmonic analysis and operator algebras. In this paper, we survey…

We give geometric descriptions of the category C_k(n,d) of rational polynomial representations of GL_n over a field k of degree d for d less than or equal to n, the Schur functor and Schur-Weyl duality. The descriptions and proofs use a…

Using purely combinatorial methods we calculate the first degree cohomology of Specht modules indexed by two part partitions over fields of characteristic $p\ge 3$. These combinatorial methods also allow us to obtain an explicit description…

We construct a general class of correspondences on hyperelliptic Riemann surfaces of arbitrary genus that combine finitely many Fuchsian genus zero orbifold groups and Blaschke products. As an intermediate step, we first construct analytic…

The primary contribution of this thesis is to introduce and examine the planar modular partition monoid for parameters $m, k \in \mathbb{Z}_{>0}$, which has simultaneously and independently generated interest from other researchers as…
