In this paper we study characters on special linear groups SL_n(R), where R is either an infinite field or the localization of an order in a number field. We give several applications to the theory of measure preserving actions,…

The character theory of finite groups has numerous basic questions that are often already quite involved: enumerating of irreducible characters, their character formulas, point-wise product decompositions, and restriction/induction between…

We study the gerbal representations of a finite group $G$ or, equivalently, module categories over Ostrik's category $Vec_G^\alpha$ for a 3-cocycle $\alpha$. We adapt Bartlett's string diagram formalism to this situation to prove that the…

Let $G$ be a finite group. There is a standard theorem on the classification of $G$-equivariant finite dimensional simple commutative, associative, and Lie algebras (i.e., simple algebras of these types in the category of representations of…

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…

A $\mathbf{GL}$-variety is a (typically infinite dimensional) variety modeled on the polynomial representation theory of the general linear group. In previous work, we studied these varieties in characteristic 0. In this paper, we obtain…

This paper concerns character sheaves of connected reductive algebraic groups defined over non-Archimedean local fields and their relation with characters of smooth representations. Although character sheaves were devised with characters of…

The article is about the representation theory of an inner form~$G$ of a general linear group over a non-archimedean local field. We introduce semisimple characters for~$G$ whose intertwining classes describe conjecturally via Local…

We introduce and develop a categorification of the theory of Real representations of finite groups. In particular, we generalize the categorical character theory of Ganter--Kapranov and Bartlett to the Real setting. Given a Real…

We consider an homogeneous action of a finite group on a free linear category over a field in order to prove that the subcategory of invariants is still free. Moreover we show that the representation type is preserved when considering…

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.…

We apply the ideas of derived algebraic geometry and topological field theory to the representation theory of reductive groups. Our focus is the Hecke category of Borel-equivariant D-modules on the flag variety of a complex reductive group…

A finite group $G$ is said to be admissible over a field $F$ if there exists a division algebra $D$ central over $F$ with a maximal subfield $L$ such that $L/F$ is Galois with group $G$. In this paper we give a complete characterization of…

Let G be a compact semisimple linear Lie group. We study the action of Aut(F_r) on the space H_*(G^r;\QQ). We compute the image of this representation and prove that it only depends on the rank of the Lie algebra of G. We show that the…
