We compute the Schwartzman group associated with an ergodic affine automorphism of a compact connected abelian group given by the composition of an automorphism of the group and a translation by an element in the path component of the…

With an eye to applications to type A and Schur-Weyl duality, we study Kazhdan-Lusztig bases for a general parabolic Hecke algebra. Parabolic Hecke algebras are idempotent subalgebras of Hecke algebras corresponding to parabolic subgroups,…

Let $W_{\mathrm{aff}}$ be an extended affine Weyl group and $\mathbf{H}$ and $J$ be the corresponding affine and asymptotic Hecke algebras with standard bases $\{T_x\}$ and $\{t_w\}$, respectively. Viewing $J$ as a subalgebra of the…

Let w be an elliptic element of the Weyl group of a connected reductive group G. Let X be the set of pairs (g,B) where g is an element of G, B is a Borel subgroup of G and B,gBg^{-1} are in relative position w. Then G acts naturally on X.…

This paper describes connected components of the strata of holomorphic abelian differentials on marked Riemann surfaces with prescribed degrees of zeros. Unlike the case for unmarked Riemann surfaces, we find there can be many connected…

We prove an analogue of Koszul duality for category $\mathcal{O}$ of a reductive group $G$ in positive characteristic $\ell$ larger than 1 plus the number of roots of $G$. However there are no Koszul rings, and we do not prove an analogue…

In 1979, Kazhdan and Lusztig developed a combinatorial theory associated with Coxeter groups. They defined in particular partitions of the group in left and two-sided cells. In 1983, Lusztig generalized this theory to Hecke algebras of…

Let I be a finite set and CI be the algebra of functions on I. For a finite dimensional C algebra A with \CI contained in A we show that certain moduli spaces of finite dimsional modules are isomorphic to certain Grassmannian (quot-type)…

The Zariski closures of the orbits for representations of type A Dynkin quivers under the action of general linear groups (i.e. quiver loci) exhibit a profound connection with Schubert varieties. In this paper, we present a…

Let W be an Iwahori-Weyl group of a connected reductive group G over a non-archimedean local field. I prove that if w is an element of W that does not act on the corresponding apartment of G by a translation then one can apply to w a…

Given a finite cocommutative Hopf algebra $A$ over a commutative regular ring $R$, the lattice of localising tensor ideals of the stable category of Gorenstein projective $A$-modules is described in terms of the corresponding lattices for…

The lowest two-sided cell of the extended affine Weyl group $W_e$ is the set $\{w \in W_e: w = x \cdot w_0 \cdot z, \text{for some} x,z \in W_e\}$, denoted $W_{(\nu)}$. We prove that for any $w \in W_{(\nu)}$, the canonical basis element…

This paper studies affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties $X_{\tw}(b)$ in the affine flag variety of a quasi-split tamely ramified group. We describe the geometric structure of $X_{\tw}(b)$ for a minimal length element $\tw$ in the conjugacy…

Let $f: X \to S$ be a unipotent degeneration of projective complex manifolds over a disc such that the reduction of the central fibre $Y=f^{-1}(0)$ is simple normal crossings, and let $X_\infty$ be the canonical nearby fibre. Building on…

The main result in this paper is the character formula for arbitrary irreducible highest weight modules of W algebras. The key ingredient is the functor provided by quantum Hamiltonian reduction, that constructs the W algebras from affine…

We test the recently conjectured duality between $N=2$ supersymmetric type II and heterotic string models by analysing a class of higher dimensional interactions in the respective low-energy Lagrangians. These are $F$-terms of the form $F_g…

Let g be the Lie algebra of a connected reductive group G over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p>0. Let $Z$ be the centre of the universal enveloping algebra U=U(g) of g. Its maximal spectrum is called the Zassenhaus…

Doplicher and Roberts originally posed the problem of extending their duality theory for compact groups and field reconstruction to theories admitting braided symmetry. In this paper, we address this problem for the Wess-Zumino-Witten model…

Any deformation of a Weyl or Clifford algebra A can be realized through a `deforming map', i.e. a formal change of generators in A. This is true in particular if A is covariant under a Lie algebra g and its deformation is induced by some…

We point out, and draw some consequences of, the fact that the Poisson Lie group G* dual to G=GL_n(C) (with its standard complex Poisson structure) may be identified with a certain moduli space of meromorphic connections on the unit disc…
