Fix an odd prime $p$. Let $G$ be a compact $p$-adic Lie group containing a closed, normal, pro-$p$ subgroup $H$ which is abelian and such that $G/H$ is isomorphic to the additive group of $p$-adic integers $\mathbbZ_p$ . First we assume…

We obtained some sufficient and necessary conditions of existence of faithful irreducible representations of a soluble group $G$ of finite rank over a field $k$. It was shown that the existence of such representations strongly depends on…

We study the representation theory of a generalized graded Hecke algebra associated to a complex reflection group of type G(r,1,n), defined by Ram and Shepler. We use a realization of this algebra in the corresponding symplectic reflection…

Let G be a nilpotent p-valuable (compact p-adic Lie) group. There is an ongoing investigation into the prime ideals of its completed group algebra (Iwasawa algebra), and there remains an open conjecture that they can all be proved to have a…

We show that the mirabolic quantum group $MU(n)$ is a comodule algebra over the quantized enveloping algebra $U_v(\mathfrak{sl}_n)$, and use this structure to give a complete classification of its finite dimensional representations. In…

M. Hanzer and I. Matic have proved that the genuine unitary principal series representations of the metaplectic groups are irreducible. A simple consequence of that paper is a criterion for the irreducibility of the non-unitary principal…

Following Gluck and Wolf we complete the It\^o--Michler's Theorem for the projective representations of a $p$-solvable or $\pi$-separable group, and then we relate the projective irreducible modules of such a group with those of its Sylow…

Iwasawa algebras of compact $p$-adic Lie groups are completed group algebras with applications in number theory in studying class numbers of towers of number fields and representation theory of $p$-adic Lie groups. In our earlier work, we…

Given a faithful finite-dimensional representation $V$ of a finite group $G$ over any field $\mathbb{F}$, we show that any irreducible ${\mathbb{F}}G$-module $W$ appears, as a submodule or a quotient, in $\mathrm{Sym}^m(V)$ for some integer…

Suppose $F$ is a finite unramified extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$, and $G$ is the group of $F$-points of a split, connected, reductive group over $F$. Under a natural restriction on $p$, we determine the structure of the graded mod $p$ Iwasawa…

Our aim is to transfer several foundational results from the modular representation theory of finite groups to the wider context of profinite groups. We are thus interested in profinite modules over the completed group algebra k[[G]] of a…

We prove that every finite dimensional representation of a finite group over a field of characteristic p admits a finite resolution by p-permutation modules. The proof involves a reformulation in terms of derived categories.
