Take a compact Sasakian threefold $M$ and consider the associated irreducible $\text{SL}(r,{\mathbb C})$-character variety ${\mathcal R} := \text{Hom}(\pi_1(M, x_0), \text{SL}(r, {\mathbb C}))^{ir}/ \text{SL}(r, {\mathbb C})$ of $M$, where…
We construct a natural bijection between odd-degree irreducible characters of S_n and linear characters of its Sylow 2-subgroup P_n. When n is a power of 2, we show that such a bijection is nicely induced by the restriction functor. We…
We study a spectral problem related to the finite-dimensional characters of the groups $Sp(2N)$, $SO(2N+1)$, and $SO(2N)$, which form the classical series $C$, $B$, and $D$, respectively. The irreducible characters of these three series are…
We prove sharp $L^p-L^q$ estimates for averaging operators along general polynomial curves in two and three dimensions. These operators are translation-invariant, given by convolution with the so-called affine arclength measure of the curve…
We construct all cuspidal l-modular representations of a unitary group in three variables attached to an unramified extension of local fields of odd residual characteristic p with l\neq p. We describe the l-modular principal series and show…
We find decomposition series of length at most two for modular representations in positive characteristic of mapping class groups of surfaces induced by an integral version of the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev SO(3)-TQFT at the p-th root of…
For a fixed number field and an elliptic curve defined and semi-stable over this number field, we consider the set of prime numbers p such that the Galois representation attached to the p-torsion points of the elliptic curve is reducible.…
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,…
We prove that the order of a finite group $G$ with trivial solvable radical is bounded above in terms of ${\rm acd}(G)$, the average degree of the irreducible characters. It is not true that the index of the Fitting subgroup is bounded…
We characterize the finite groups of minimal order that admit an irreducible complex character of degree $p$ or $p^2$, where $p$ is a prime.
This paper continues the project of constructing the character formulae for the positive energy unitary irreducible representations of the N-extended D=4 conformal superalgebras su(2,2/N). In the first paper we gave the bare characters…
We determine precisely the number of irreducible summands of an irreducible cross characteristic representation of $GL_{n}(q)$ on restriction to $SL_{n}(q)$. Combined with a recent result of C. Bonnafe, this yields a canonical labeling for…
Let $q$ be a prime power, and $d$ a positive integer. We study the proportion of irreducible characters of $\mathrm{GL}(n,q)$ whose values evaluated on a fixed matrix $g$ are divisible by $d$. As $n$ approaches infinity, this proportion…
We define the position of an irreducible complex character of a finite group as an alternative to the degree. We then use this to define three classes of groups: PR-groups, IPR-groups and weak IPR-groups. We show that IPR-groups and weak…
We consider problems concerning the largest degrees of irreducible characters of symmetric groups, and the multiplicities of character degrees of symmetric groups. Using evidence from computer experiments, we posit several new conjectures…
We prove $L^p$ bounds for the extensions of standard multilinear Calder\'on-Zygmund operators to tuples of UMD spaces tied by a natural product structure. This can, for instance, mean the pointwise product in UMD function lattices, or the…
The paper studies how to compute irreducible characters of the generalized symmetric group $C_k\wr{S}_n$ by iterative algorithms. After reproving the Ariki-Koike version of the Murnaghan-Nakayama rule by vertex algebraic methods, we…
We classify the finite groups with the property that any two different character codegrees are coprime. In general, we conjecture that if $k$ is a positive integer such that for any prime $p$ the number of character codegrees of a finite…
In this paper the simplest singular boundary problem of Dirichlet type for linear differential equation of the first order of general form is considered. The main result of this paper is criterion of correct solvability of above problem in…
We re-express the quantum Calogero-Sutherland model for the Lie algebra $E_6$ and the particular value of the coupling constant $\kappa=1$ by using the fundamental irreducible characters of the algebra as dynamical variables. For that, we…
