Assume $\mathsf{M}_n$ is the $n$-dimensional permutation module for the symmetric group $\mathsf{S}_n$, and let $\mathsf{M}_n^{\otimes k}$ be its $k$-fold tensor power. The partition algebra $\mathsf{P}_k(n)$ maps surjectively onto the…
We introduce the quasi-partition algebra $QP_k(n)$ as a centralizer algebra of the symmetric group. This algebra is a subalgebra of the partition algebra and inherits many similar combinatorial properties. We construct a basis for…
The symmetric group $\mathsf{S}_n$ and the partition algebra $\mathsf{P}_k(n)$ centralize one another in their actions on the $k$-fold tensor power $\mathsf{M}_n^{\otimes k}$ of the $n$-dimensional permutation module $\mathsf{M}_n$ of…

We present a classification of all spherical indecomposable representations of classical and exceptional Lie superalgebras. We also include information about stabilizers, symmetric algebras, and Borels for which sphericity is achieved. In…
We define the spherical Hecke algebra H for an almost split Kac-Moody group G over a local non-archimedean field. We use the hovel I associated to this situation, which is the analogue of the Bruhat-Tits building for a reductive group. The…
We study the representation theory of the infinite type A Hecke algebra over a non-archimedean field in the case where the parameter is a pseudo-uniformizer. Specifically, we consider a family of representations, called almost-symmetric,…
Let $\mathfrak g$ be a semisimple Lie algebra and $\mathfrak k\subset\mathfrak g$ be a reductive in $\mathfrak g$ subalgebra. A $(\mathfrak g, \mathfrak k)$-module is a $\mathfrak g$-module which after restriction to $\mathfrak k$ becomes a…
Given a finite subgroup $W \subset \GL(\fh)$ of the linear group of a finite-dimensional complex vector field $\fh$, it is a well-studied problem to describe the structure of the symmetric algebra $B= \sym(\fh^*)$ as a representation of…
Let $S_\lambda$ denote the Specht module defined by Dipper and James for the Iwahori-Hecke algebra $\mathscr{H}_n$ of the symmetric group $\mathfrak{S}_n$. When $e=2$ we determine the decomposability of all Specht modules corresponding to…
We consider symmetric (under the action of products of finite symmetric groups) real algebraic varieties and semi-algebraic sets, as well as symmetric complex varieties in affine and projective spaces, defined by polynomials of degrees…
We develop a more general view of Stembridge's enriched $P$-partitions and use this theory to outline the structure of peak algebras for the symmetric group and the hyperoctahedral group. Initially we focus on commutative peak algebras,…
The partition algebra $\mathsf{P}_k(n)$ and the symmetric group $\mathsf{S}_n$ are in Schur-Weyl duality on the $k$-fold tensor power $\mathsf{M}_n^{\otimes k}$ of the permutation module $\mathsf{M}_n$ of $\mathsf{S}_n$, so there is a…
We give an explicit description of the $q$-deformation of symplectic group $SP_{q}(2n)$ at the $C^*$-algebra level and find all irreducible representations of this $C^{*}$-algebra. Further we describe the $C^*$-algebra of the quotient space…
Let $G$ be a semisimple algebraic group over the complex numbers and $K$ be a connected reductive group mapping to $G$ so that the Lie algebra of $K$ gets identified with a symmetric subalgebra of $\mathfrak{g}$. So we can talk about…
Decompositional theories describe the ways in which a global physical system can be split into subsystems, facilitating the study of how different possible partitions of a same system interplay, e.g. in terms of inclusions or signalling. In…
Let K be a local non-archimedian field, F=K((t)) and let G be a split semi-simple group. The purpose of this paper is to study certain analogs of spherical (and Iwahori) Hecke algebras for representations of the group G(F) and its central…
This article studies the compatibility of Koenig's notion of an exact Borel subalgebra of a quasi-hereditary or, more generally, standardly stratified algebra with taking idempotent subalgebras or quotients. As an application, we provide…
We obtain alternative explicit Specht filtrations for the induced and the restricted Specht modules in the Hecke algebra of the symmetric group (defined over the ring $A=\mathbb Z[q^{1/2},q^{-1/2}]$ where $q$ is an indeterminate) using…
We introduce the multiset partition algebra, ${\rm M\!P}_{r,k}(x)$, that has bases elements indexed by multiset partitions, where $x$ is an indeterminate and $r$ and $k$ are non-negative integers. This algebra can be realized as a diagram…
