We find canonical decompositions for finitely presented groups which specialize to the classical JSJ-decomposition when restricted to the fundamental groups of Haken manifolds. The decompositions that we obtain are invariant under…

Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field of odd residual characteristic. We compute the Jordan set of a simple cuspidal representation of a symplectic group over $F$, using explicit computations of generators of the Hecke algebras of covers…

In this note we consider representations of the group GL(n,F), where F is the field of real or complex numbers or, more generally, an arbitrary local field, in the space of equivariant line bundles over Grassmannians over the same field F.…

We introduce and study some families of groups whose irreducible characters take values on quadratic extensions of the rationals. We focus mostly on a generalization of inverse semi-rational groups, which we call uniformly semi-rational…

We construct an L^2-model of "very small" irreducible unitary representations of simple Lie groups G which, up to finite covering, occur as conformal groups Co(V) of simple Jordan algebras V. If $V$ is split and G is not of type A_n, then…

Let K be a non-archimedean local field and let G be a connected reductive K-group which splits over an unramified extension of K. We investigate supercuspidal unipotent representations of the group G(K). We establish a bijection between the…

We classify irreducible representations of the special linear groups in positive characteristic with small weight multiplicities with respect to the group rank and give estimates for the maximal weight multiplicities. For the natural…

Let G be a finite group and V a finite-dimensional rational G-representation. We ask whether there exists a finite Galois extension L/K of number fields with Galois group G, an elliptic curve E/K, and a G-submodule of E(L) tensor Q…

A finite group $G$ is said to have the nilpotent decomposition property (ND) if for every nilpotent element $\alpha$ of the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z}[G]$ one has that $\alpha e$ also belong to $\mathbb{Z}[G]$, for every primitive…

Suppose that $\tilde{G}$ is a connected reductive group defined over a field $k$, and $\Gamma$ is a finite group acting via $k$-automorphisms of $\tilde{G}$ satisfying a certain quasi-semisimplicity condition. Then the connected part of the…

We introduce the Pythagorean dimension: a natural number (or infinity) for all representations of the Cuntz algebra and certain unitary representations of the Richard Thompson groups called Pythagorean. For each natural number d we…

Let $\mathbf{G}(\mathsf{k})$ be a semisimple $p$-adic group, inner to split. In this article, we compute the algebraic and canonical unramified wavefront sets of the irreducible supercuspidal representations of $\mathbf{G}(\mathsf{k})$ in…

Let $G$ be a complex connected reductive algebraic group and let $G_{\mathbb{R}}$ be a real form of $G$. We construct a sequence of functors $L_i\mathcal{R}$ from admissible (resp. finite-length) representations of $G$ to admissible (resp.…

The notion of a \emph{$G$-completely reducible} subgroup is important in the study of algebraic groups and their subgroup structure. It generalizes the usual idea of complete reducibility from representation theory: a subgroup $H$ of a…

Let $K$ be a non-archimedean local field of residual characteristic $p\neq 2$. Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over $K$, let $\theta$ be an involution of $G$ over $K$, and let $H$ be the connected component of $\theta$-fixed subgroup…

This paper is a sequel to our previous study of spherical representations in the operator algebra setup. We first introduce possible analogs of dimension groups in the present context by utilizing the notion of operator systems and their…

J. Pevtsova and the author constructed a ``universal $p$-nilpotent operator" for an infinitesimal group scheme $G$ over a field $k$ of characteristic $p > 0$ which led to coherent sheaves on the scheme of 1-parameter subgroups of $G$…

Let $G$ be a real reductive group in Harish-Chandra's class. We derive some consequences of theory of coherent continuation representations to the counting of irreducible representations of $G$ with a given infinitesimal character and a…

Suppose $G$ is a real reductive group. The determination of the irreducible unitary representations of $G$ is one of the major unsolved problem in representation theory. There is evidence to suggest that every irreducible unitary…

A square matrix $A$ has the usual Jordan canonical form that describes the structure of $A$ via eigenvalues and the corresponding Jordan blocks. If $A$ is a linear relation in a finite-dimensional linear space ${\mathfrak H}$ (i.e., $A$ is…
