In this paper, we construct a categorical double quantum Heisenberg action on the representation category of finite classical groups $\mathrm{O}_{2n+1}(q)$, $\mathrm{Sp}_{2n}(q)$ and $\mathrm{O}^{\pm}_{2n}(q)$ with $q$ odd. Over a field of…
We study families of partitions with gap conditions that were introduced by Schur and Andrews, and describe their fundamental connections to combinatorial q-series and automorphic forms. In particular, we show that the generating functions…
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…
Indicial operators are model operators associated to an elliptic differential operator near a corner singularity on a stratified manifold. These model operators are defined on generalized tangent cone configurations and exhibit a natural…
The asymptotic behavior of holomorphic families of generalized eigenfunctions on a reductive symmetric space is studied. The family parameter is a complex character on the split component of a parabolic subgroup. The main result asserts…
Let $X$ be a character table of the symmetric group $S_n$. It is shown that unless $n = 4$ or $n=6$, there is a unique way to assign partitions of $n$ to the rows and columns of $X$ so that for all $\lambda$ and $\nu$, $X_{\lambda\nu}$ is…
We describe the pushforward of a matrix factorisation along a ring morphism in terms of an idempotent defined using relative Atiyah classes, and use this construction to study the convolution of kernels defining integral functors between…
We study the intermediate extension of the character sheaves on an adjoint group to the semi-stable locus of its wonderful compactification. We show that the intermediate extension can be described by a direct image construction. As a…
A natural first step in the classification of all `physical' modular invariant partition functions $\sum N_{LR}\,\c_L\,\C_R$ lies in understanding the commutant of the modular matrices $S$ and $T$. We begin this paper extending the work of…
We introduce two vertex operators to realize skew odd orthogonal characters $so_{\lambda/\mu}(x^{\pm})$ and derive the Cauchy identity for the skew characters via Toeplitz-Hankel-type determinant similar to the Schur functions. The method…
For linear operators which factor with suitable assumptions concerning commutativity of the factors, we introduce several notions of a decomposition. When any of these hold then questions of null space and range are subordinated to the same…
Let F be a global field, G an unramified quasi-split reductive group over F and chi an everywhere unramified automorphic character of a maximal maximally split torus of G. Using Langlands-Shahidi theory, we compute the meromorphic function…
We consider ADE-type (2, 0) theory on a family of flat six-tori endowed with flat Sp(4) connections coupled to the R-symmetry. Our main objects of interest are the components of the `partition vector' of the theory. These constitute an…
This paper concerns the analysis of an unbounded Toeplitz-like operator generated by a rational matrix function having poles on the unit circle T. It extends the analysis of such operators generated by scalar rational functions with poles…
Skewing operators play a central role in the symmetric function theory because of the importance of the product structure of the symmetric function space. The theory of noncommutative symmetric functions is a useful tool for studying…
We study the parametrized Hamiltonian action functional for finite-dimensional families of Hamiltonians. We show that the linearized operator for the $L^2$-gradient lines is Fredholm and surjective, for a generic choice of Hamiltonian and…
A definition is offered of the factorial characters of the general linear group, the symplectic group and the orthogonal group in an odd dimensional space. It is shown that these characters satisfy certain flagged Jacobi-Trudi identities.…
Relativistic quantum systems that admit scattering experiments are quantitatively described by effective field theories, where $S$-matrix kinematics and symmetry considerations are encoded in the operator spectrum of the EFT. In this paper…
On a polarized compact symplectic manifold endowed with an action of a compact Lie group, in analogy with geometric invariant theory, one can define the space of invariant functions of degree k. A central statement in symplectic geometry,…
