We give a presentation of cyclotomic q-Schur algebras by generators and defining relations. As an application, we give an algorithm for computing decomposition numbers of cyclotomic q-Schur algebras.

We study the properties of groups that have presentations in which the square of each generator gives the identity and all relations are of even length. We consider the parabolic subgroups of such a group and show that every element has a…

The author constructs the moduli of representations whose images generate the subalgebra of upper triangular matrices (up to inner automorphisms) of the full matrix ring for any groups and any monoids.

We describe the Stiefel-Whitney classes (SWCs) of orthogonal representations $\pi$ of the finite special linear groups $G=\text{SL}(2,\mathbb F_q)$, in terms of character values of $\pi$. From this calculation, we can answer interesting…

We start with a small paradigm shift about group representations, namely the observation that restriction to a subgroup can be understood as an extension-of-scalars. We deduce that, given a group $G$, the derived and the stable categories…

We describe a new type of polycyclic presentations, that we will call refined solvable presentations, for polycyclic groups. These presentations are obtained by refining a series of normal subgroups with abelian sections. These…

We build on the methods introduced by Friedmann, Hanlon, Stanley, and Wachs, and further developed by Brauner and Friedmann, to construct additional classes of presentations of Specht modules. We obtain these presentations by defining a…

Uhlenbeck proved that a set of simple elements generates the group of rational loops in GL(n,C) that satisfy the U(n)-reality condition. For an arbitrary complex reductive group, a choice of representation defines a notion of rationality…

In this note, we give two different proofs that relation algebra $52_{65}$ is representable over a finite set. The first is probabilistic, and uses Johnson schemes. The second is an explicit group representation over $…

Let $G$ be the simple algebraic group $SL_2$ defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p>0$. In this paper, we find the second cohomology of all irreducible representations of $G$

We compute the homology of the matching complex $M(\Gamma)$, where $\Gamma$ is the complete hypergraph on $n\geq 2$ vertices, and analyse the $S_n$-representations carried by this homology. These results are achieved using standard…

The purpose of this article is to give an exposition of topological properties of spaces of homomorphisms from certain finitely generated discrete groups to Lie groups $G$, and to describe their connections to classical representation…

Minahan and the author recently proved results that allow the calculation of the second rational cohomology group of the Torelli group. This builds on two key ingredients: Hain's calculation of the image of the cup product pairing on the…

We introduce the adjoint homological Selmer module for an SL$_2$-representation of a knot group, which may be seen as a knot theoretic analogue of the dual adjoint Selmer module for a Galois representation. We then show finitely generated…

In group representations several inductions given by tensoring with appropriate bimodules may be reconstructed via homology of $G$-posets with $G$-equivariant coefficients. For this purpose, we need various local categories of a finite…

Let G be a simple reductive group over the complex numbers. Let W be the Weyl group of G. We propose a description of the Springer representations of W associated to various unipotent classes of G by a purely algebraic method involving the…

We obtain a presentation of certain affine q-Schur algebras in terms of generators and relations. The presentation is obtained by adding more relations to the usual presentation of the quantized enveloping algebra of type affine gl_n. Our…

We derive the representation theory of $SU(2)$ from the expository theory of Lie groups and Lie algebras. Based on this, the mathematics of non-relativistic quantum mechanics of a spin $\frac{1}{2}$ particle are described from a…

We compute coherent presentations of Artin monoids, that is presentations by generators, relations, and relations between the relations. For that, we use methods of higher-dimensional rewriting that extend Squier's and Knuth-Bendix's…

P. Deligne defined interpolations of the tensor category of representations of the symmetric group S_n to complex values of n. Namely, he defined tensor categories Rep(S_t) for any complex t. This construction was generalized by F. Knop to…
