Let G be a reductive group over a non-archimedean local field F. Consider an arbitrary Bernstein block Rep(G)^s in the category of complex smooth G-representations. In earlier work the author showed that there exists an affine Hecke algebra…
We define the superclasses for a classical finite unipotent group $U$ of type $B_{n}(q)$, $C_{n}(q)$, or $D_{n}(q)$, and show that, together with the supercharacters defined in a previous paper, they form a supercharacter theory. In…
The classification of irreducible, spherical characters of the infinite-dimensional unitary/orthogonal/symplectic groups can be obtained by finding all possible limits of normalized, irreducible characters of the corresponding…
For a finite group $G$, the vertices of the prime graph $\Gamma(G)$ are the primes that divide $|G|$, and two vertices $p$ and $q$ are connected by an edge if there is an element of order $pq$ in $G$. Prime graphs of solvable groups have…
We continue studying properties of semisimple Hopf algebras $H$ over algebraically closed fields of characteristic 0 resulting from their generalized character tables. We show that the generalized character table of $H$ reflect normal left…
Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field of residual characteristic $p$, $\ell\neq p$ be a prime number, and $\mathrm{W}_F$ the Weil group of $F$. We classify the indecomposable $\mathrm{W}_F$-semisimple Deligne…
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 gather evidence on a new local-global conjecture of Moret\'o and Rizo on values of irreducible characters of finite groups. For this we study subnormalisers and picky elements in finite groups of Lie type and determine them in many…
A unital $\ell$-group $(G,u)$ is an abelian group $G$ equipped with a translation-invariant lattice-order and a distinguished element $u$, called order-unit, whose positive integer multiples eventually dominate each element of $G$. We…
The structure positive of unitary irreducible representations of the noncompact $u_q(2,1)$ quantum algebra that are related to a positive discrete series is examined. With the aid of projection operators for the $su_q(2)$ subalgebra, a…
We investigate the characters of some finite-dimensional representations of the quantum affine algebras $U_q(\hat{g})$ using the action of the copy of $U_q(g)$ embedded in it. First, we present an efficient algorithm for computing the…
Let G be a compact real Lie group, and let f be an irreducible complex character of G, of degree > 1. We show that there exists an element g of G, of finite order, such that f(g)=0. We also give an unpublished result of Deligne, about…
Let $V$ be a Weyl module either for a reductive algebraic group $G$ or for the corresponding quantum group $U_q$. If $G$ is defined over a field of positive characteristic $p$, respectively if $q$ is a primitive $l$'th root of unity (in an…
In this paper we consider non-abelian 1-cohomology for groups with coefficients in other groups. We prove versions of the `five lemma' arising from this situation. We go on to show that a connected unipotent algebraic group Q acted on…
We classify blocks in the BGG category $\mathcal O$ of modules of non-integral weights for the exceptional Lie superalgebra $G(3)$. We compute the characters for tilting modules of non-integral weights in $\mathcal O$. Reduction methods are…
We study finite-dimensional representations of quantum affine algebras using q-characters. We prove the conjectures from math.QA/9810055 and derive some of their corollaries. In particular, we prove that the tensor product of fundamental…
Lusztig conjectured that the almost characters of a finite reductive group are up to a scalar the same as the characteristic functions of the rational character sheaves defined on the corresponding algebraic group. We propose in this paper…
We classify blocks in the BGG category $\mathcal O$ of modules of non-integral weights for the exceptional Lie superalgebra $D(2|1;\zeta)$. We establish various reduction methods, which connect some types of non-integral blocks of…
Let G be a finite group with Sylow p-subgroup P. We show that the character table of G determines whether P has maximal nilpotency class and whether P is a minimal non-abelian group. The latter result is obtained from a precise…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive algebraic group defined over a finite field with $q$ elements. In the 1980's, Kawanaka introduced generalised Gelfand-Graev representations of the finite group $G(F_q)$, assuming that $q$ is a power of a…
