Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated group and $G$ a real form of $\mathrm{SL}_n(\mathbb{C})$. We propose a definition for the $G$-character variety of $\Gamma$ as a subset of the $\mathrm{SL}_n(\mathbb{C})$-character variety of $\Gamma$.…
For a group $G$ and a character $\chi$ of $G$, let $c(\chi)$ denote the set of all irreducible characters of $G$, occurring in $\chi$. We prove that whenever $q\geq 8$, all non-trivial irreducible character $\chi$ of $\mathrm{PSL}_2(q)$…
If all of the entries of a large $S_n$ character table are covered up and you are allowed to uncover one entry at a time, then how can you quickly identify all of the indexing characters and conjugacy classes? We present a fast algorithmic…

We exhibit a basis for the space of spherical characters of a distinguished supercuspidal representation $\pi$ of a connected reductive $p$-adic group, subject to the assumption that $\pi$ is obtained via induction from a representation of…
In this paper, we study the explicit structure of the graded ring of elliptic modular forms for the congruence subgroup $\Gamma_0(N)$ with N=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,12,16,18,25. More precisely, making use of some relations between Fourier…
We describe the complex multiplication (CM) values of modular functions for $\Gamma_0(N)$ whose divisor is given by a linear combination of Heegner divisors in terms of special cycles on the stack of CM elliptic curves. In particular, our…

When $G_{\mathbb{R}}$ is a real, linear algebraic group, the orbit method predicts that nearly all of the unitary dual of $G_{\mathbb{R}}$ consists of representations naturally associated to orbital parameters $(\mathcal{O},\Gamma)$. If…
Formulas for the expansion of arbitrary invariant group functions in terms of the characters for the Sp(2N), SO(2N+1), and SO(2N) groups are derived using a combinatorial method. The method is similar to one used by Balantekin to expand…
