Let G be a semisimple almost simple algebraic group defined and split over a nonarchimedean local field K and let V be a unipotent representation of G(K) (for example, an Iwahori-spherical representation). We calculate the character of V at…
We establish an irreducibility property for the characters of finite dimensional, irreducible representations of simple Lie algebras (or simple algebraic groups) over the complex numbers, i.e., that the characters of irreducible…
Let G be a semisimple group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>0. We give a (partly conjectural) simple, closed formula for the character of many indecomposable tilting rational G-modules, assuming that p is large.
For an arbitrary infinite field k of characteristic p > 0, we describe the structure of a block of the algebraic monoid M_n(k) (all n x n matrices over k), or, equivalently, a block of the Schur algebra S(n,p), whose simple modules are…

Let $Y$ be a normal and projective variety over an algebraically closed field $k$ and $V$ a vector bundle over $Y$. We prove that if there exist a $k$-scheme $X$ and a finite surjective morphism $g:X\to Y$ that trivializes $V$ then $V$ is…

Let $G$ be a finite group and \( M \) be a maximal subgroup of \( G \). We call every irreducible constituent \( \chi \) of \( (1_M)^G \) a \( \mathcal{P} \)-character of \( G \) with respect to \( M \). In this paper, we prove that all…

We construct explicit examples that are algebraic varieties in positive characteristic to show that locally trivial moduli functors do not always satisfy Schlessinger's condition $(H_1)$ in [3], in contrast to the complex/characteristic $0$…

A finite order element $g$ of a group $G$ is called rational if $g$ is conjugate to $g^i$ for every integer $i$ coprime to the order $g$. We determine all triples $(G,g,\phi)$, where $G$ is a simple algebraic group of type $A_n,B_n$ or…
For a fixed prime power $q$, let $\text{GL}_\bullet(q)$ denote the family of groups $\text{GL}_N(q)$ for $N \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}$. In this paper we study the $\mathbb{C}$-algebra of "stable" class functions of $\text{GL}_\bullet(q)$, and…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $p$ be a prime number dividing the order of $G$. An irreducible character $\chi$ of $G$ is called a quasi $p$-Steinberg character if $\chi(g)$ is nonzero for every $p$-regular element $g$ in $G$. In this paper,…
