Let G be an affine algebraic group over an algebraically closed field such that the identity component G^0 of G is reductive. Let W be the Weyl group of G and let D be a connected component of G whose image in G/G^0 is a unipotent element.…
A known result for the finite general linear group $\GL(n,\FF_q)$ and for the finite unitary group $\U(n,\FF_{q^2})$ posits that the sum of the irreducible character degrees is equal to the number of symmetric matrices in the group. Fulman…
Let $G$ be a finite group of Lie type and $\ell$ be a prime which is not equal to the defining characteristic of $G$. In this note we discuss some open problems concerning the $\ell$-modular irreducible representations of $G$. We also…

We derive decomposition formulas for supercharacters of quantum affine ortho-symplectic superalgebras and twisted quantum affine superalgebras into supercharacters of their finite-type quantum sub-superalgebras, by employing Cauchy-type…
Let $G$ be a finite group and, for a prime $p$, let $S$ be a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$. A character $\chi$ of $G$ is called $\Syl_p$-regular if the restriction of $\chi$ to $S$ is the character of the regular representation of $S$. If, in…
The plethysms of the Weyl characters associated to a classical Lie group by the symmetric functions stabilize in large rank. In the case of a power sum plethysm, we prove that the coefficients of the decomposition of this stabilized form on…
In 1993, Brou\'{e}, Malle and Michel initiated the study of spetses on the Greek island bearing the same name. These are mysterious objects attached to non-real Weyl groups. In algebraic topology, a $p$-compact group $\mathbf{X}$ is a space…
We classify and explicitly construct the irreducible graded representations of anti-spherical Hecke categories which are concentrated in one degree. Each of these homogeneous representations is one-dimensional and can be cohomologically…
Let G_0 be a connected unipotent algebraic group over a finite field F_q, and let G be the unipotent group over an algebraic closure F of F_q obtained from G_0 by extension of scalars. If M is a Frobenius-invariant character sheaf on G, we…
Let G be a possibly disconnected reductive real Lie group. In this paper, I parametrize the set of irreductible tempered characters of G. I then describe these characters using certain ``Kirillov's formulas,'' based on the descent method…
Let F be a non-archimedean local field and G be the group GL(N,F). Let \pi be a smooth complex representation of G lying in the Bernstein block B(\pi) of some simple type in the sense of Bushnell and Kutzko. Refining the approach of the…
Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic $p > 0$. We consider connected reductive subgroups $X$ of $G$ that contain a given distinguished unipotent element $u$ of $G$. A result of…
Let $\ell$ be a prime, $k$ a finitely generated field of characteristic different from $\ell$, and $X$ a smooth geometrically connected curve over $k$. Say a semisimple representation of $\pi_1^{\mathrm{et}}(X_{\bar k})$ is arithmetic if it…
We investigate the behaviour of the Weil character of the symplectic group on restriction to subgroups arising from commutative nilpotent algebras of class 2. We give explicit descriptions of the decomposition of the Weil character when…
We discuss various computational issues around the problem of determining the character values of finite Chevalley groups, in the framework provided by Lusztig's theory of character sheaves. Some of the remaining open questions (concerning…

We study on Weyl modules of cyclotomic $q$-Schur algebras. In particular, we give the character formula of the Weyl modules by using the Kostka numbers and some numbers which are computed by a generalization of Littlewood-Richardson rule.…
