Whether or not the Kronecker coefficients of the symmetric group count some set of combinatorial objects is a longstanding open question. In this work we show that a given Kronecker coefficient is proportional to the rank of a projector…

A review of the multiparametric linear quantum group GL_qr(N), its real forms, its dual algebra U(gl_qr(N)) and its bicovariant differential calculus is given in the first part of the paper. We then construct the (multiparametric) linear…

We present an algorithm to compute the Hecke operators on the equivariant cohomology of an arithmetic subgroup $\Gamma$ of the general linear group $\mathrm{GL}_n$. This includes $\mathrm{GL}_n$ over a number field or a finite-dimensional…

We study a family of complex representations of the group GL(n,O), where O is the ring of integers of a non-archimedean local field F. These representations occur in the restriction of the Grassmann representation of GL(n,F) to its maximal…

This paper provides a unified framework resolving two long-standing problems: the intrinsic construction of global quantum gauge groups for braided tensor $C^*$-categories (the Doplicher-Roberts problem) and the direct proof of the…

Let $(M^n,g_0)$ be a smooth compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$ with smooth non-empty boundary $\partial M$. Let $\Gamma\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ be a symmetric convex cone and $f$ a symmetric defining function for $\Gamma$…

Bi-partite ribbon graphs arise in organising the large $N$ expansion of correlators in random matrix models and in the enumeration of observables in random tensor models. There is an algebra $\mathcal{K}(n)$, with basis given by bi-partite…

This is the second paper in a series of papers adressing the characteristic gluing problem for the Einstein vacuum equations. We solve the codimension-$10$ characteristic gluing problem for characteristic data which are close to the…

We describe basic concepts of noncommutative geometry and a general construction extending the familiar duality between ordinary spaces and commutative algebras to a duality between Quotient spaces and Noncommutative algebras. Basic tools…

I. Penkov and V. Serganova have recently introduced, for any non-degenerate pairing $W\otimes V\to\mathbb C$ of vector spaces, the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{gl}^M=\mathfrak{gl}^M(V,W)$ consisting of endomorphisms of $V$ whose duals preserve…

We discuss generalizations of the notion of i) the group of unitary elements of a (real or complex) finite dimensional C*-algebra, ii) gauge transformations and iii) (real) automorphisms, in the framework of compact quantum group theory and…

The paper is devoted to the generalization of Lusztig's q-analog of weight multiplicities to the Lie superalgebras gl(n,m) and spo(2n,M). We define such q-analogs K_{lambda,mu}(q) for the typical modules and for the irreducible covariant…

The set of possible spectra (\lambda,\mu,\nu) of zero-sum triples of Hermitian matrices forms a polyhedral cone. We give a complete determination of its facets, finishing a long story with recent highlights by [Helmke-Rosenthal, Klyachko,…

We examine the hypothesis that space-time is a product of a continuous four-dimensional manifold times a finite space. A new tensorial notation is developed to present the various constructs of noncommutative geometry. In particular, this…

Let W be a finite Coxeter group. We define its Hecke-group algebra by gluing together appropriately its group algebra and its 0-Hecke algebra. We describe in detail this algebra (dimension, several bases, conjectural presentation,…

When $G$ is a complex reductive algebraic group and $G/K$ is a reductive symmetric space, the decomposition of $\C[G/K]$ as a $K$-module was obtained (in a non-constructive way) by Richardson, generalizing the celebrated result of…

Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field such that $4|q-1$, with $q$ the order of the residue field of $F$, and let $(M^0,\sigma^0)$ be the depth-zero cuspidal pair for the twisted Levi subgroup $G^0$ of $\mathrm{SL}_8$ arising from…

We study W-algebras obtained by quantum Hamiltonian reduction of $sl(Mn)$ associated to the $sl(2)$ embedding of rectangular type. The algebra can be realized as the asymptotic symmetry of higher spin gravity with $M \times M$ matrix valued…

These lectures given in Montreal in Summer 1997 are mainly based on, and form a condensed survey of, the book by N. Chriss and V. Ginzburg: `Representation Theory and Complex Geometry', Birkhauser 1997. Various algebras arising naturally in…

The possible role of gravity in a noncommutative geometry is investigated. Due to the Moyal *-product of fields in noncommutative geometry, it is necessary to complexify the metric tensor of gravity. We first consider the possibility of a…
