Let G be a connected reductive algebraic group over a perfect field. We study the representability of the equivariant automorphism group of G-varieties. For a broad class of complexity-one G-varieties, we show that this group is…

In this paper we study Almost-Riemannian Structures (ARS) on the class of nonnilpotent, solvable, conneted 3D Lie groups. The nice structures present in such groups allow us to show that the singular locus of ARSs on such groups are always…

We describe a connected component of the space of conjugacy classes of representations of the modular group $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ into the isometry group of the symmetric space $\mathrm{SL}_3(\mathbb{R})/\mathrm{SO}(3)$. This…

We consider a construction of the fundamental spin representations of the simple Lie algebras $\mathfrak{so}(n)$ in terms of binary arithmetic of fixed width integers. This gives the spin matrices as a Lie subalgebra of a…

Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$ and edge set $E(G)$. A family $\mathcal{S}$ of nonempty sets $\{S_1,\ldots,S_n\}$ is a set representation of $G$ if there exists a one-to-one correspondence between the vertices $v_1, \ldots, v_n$…

We introduce a unified framework for counting representations of knot groups into $SU(2)$ and $SL(2, \mathbb{R})$. For a knot $K$ in the 3-sphere, Lin and others showed that a Casson-style count of $SU(2)$ representations with fixed…

A Lie group is a group that is also a differentiable manifold, such that the group operation is continuous respect to the topological structure. To every Lie group we can associate its tangent space in the identity point as a vector space,…

We determine which orthogonal representations V of GL(n,q) lift to the double cover Pin(V ) of the orthogonal group O(V ). We cover all n and prime powers q, except for (n; q) =(3,4).

We give a proof, using so-called fusion rings and q-deformations of Brauer algebras that the representation ring of an orthogonal or symplectic group can be obtained as a quotient of a ring Gr(O(\infinity)). This is obtained here as a…

We show that a compact representation of a semisimple Lie group has an orthogonal decomposition into finite length representations. This generalises and simplifies a number of more special spectral theorems in the literature. We apply it to…

Let g be a semisimple Lie algebra with h a Cartan subalgebra. The orbit method attempts to assign representations of g to orbits in g*. Orbital varieties are particular Lagrangian subvarieties of such orbits which should lead to highest…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over a finite field $\mathfrak{f}$ of order $q$. When $q$ is small, we make further assumptions on $G$. Then we determine precisely when $G(\mathfrak{f})$ admits irreducible, cuspidal representations…

The tempered spectrum of the similitude groups of non-degenerate symplectic, hermitian, or split orthogonal forms defined over $p$\snug-adic groups of characteristic zero is studied. The components of representations induced from discrete…

Let G be an arithmetic lattice in a semisimple algebraic group over a number field. We show that if G has the congruence subgroup property, then the number of n-dimensional irreducible representations of G grows like n^a, where a is a…

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group. We prove that if $V$ and $W$ are orthogonal $G$-representations such that $V^G=W^G=\{0\}$, then a $G$-equivariant map $S(V) \to S(W)$ exists provided that $\dim V^H \leq \dim W^H$ for any closed subgroup…

The main goal of this article is to investigate the relationship between action accessibility and weak action representability in the context of varieties of non-associative algebras over a field. Specifically, using an argument of J. R. A.…

In this paper, we construct an implementable algorithm which solves the conjugacy problem in twisted right-angled Artin groups (T-RAAGs). In certain cases, the complexity is known to be linear, by reducing the problem to the twisted…

The paper extends existing Lie algebra representation theory related to Lie algebra gradings. The notion of a representation compatible with a given grading is defined and applied to finite-dimensional representations of $sl(n,\mathbb{C})$…
