It is known that characters of irreducible representations of finite Lie algebras can be obtained using theWeyl character formula including Weyl group summations which make actual calculations almost impossible except for a few Lie algebras…

We generalize I. Frenkel's orbital theory for non twisted affine Lie algebras to the case of twisted affine Lie algebras using a character formula for certain non-connected compact Lie groups.

The purpose of this paper is to begin an exploration of connections between the Baum-Connes conjecture in operator $\K$-theory and the geometric representation theory of reductive Lie groups. Our initial goal is very modest, and we shall…

The decomposition of representations of compact classical Lie groups into representations of finite subgroups is discussed. A Mathematica package is presented that can be used to compute these branching rules using the Weyl character…

Let B be a reductive Lie subalgebra of a semi-simple Lie algebra of the same rank both over the complex numbers. To each finite dimensional irreducible representation $V_\lambda$ of F we assign a multiplet of irreducible representations of…

We prove a Mackey formula for representations of finite groups of Lie type, in the case where the groups come from disconnected reductive groups.

In this paper we prove two formulas for the characters of representations of reductive groups. Both express the character of a representation in terms of the same geometric data attached to it. When specialized to the case of a compact Lie…

We associate to outer automorphisms of generalized Kac-Moody algebras generalized character-valued indices, the twining characters. A character formula for twining characters is derived which shows that they coincide with the ordinary…

We describe algorithms to represent and compute groups of Hecke characters. We make use of an id{\`e}lic point of view and obtain the whole family of such characters, including transcendental ones. We also show how to isolate the algebraic…

In this paper I present a new and unified method of proving character formulas for discrete series representations of connected Lie groups by applying a Chern character-type construction to the matrix factorizations of [FT] and [FHT3]. In…

We introduce the definition of the typical irreducible modules of the generalized quantum groups, and prove the Weyl-Kac-type formulas of their characters. As a by-product, we obtain the Weyl-Kac-type character formulas of the typical…

Character formulas for Lie superalgebras have been shown to have important applications to number theory and combinatorics. We prove the Kac-Wakimoto character formula for the general linear Lie superalgebra gl(m|n). This formula…

For finite Lie algebras, it is shown that characters can be defined first for Weyl orbits and then for irreducible representations. For $A_N$ Lie algebras, weight multiplicities can then be calculated by only stating that characters are…

We give a characterisation of central extensions of a Lie group G by the non-zero complex numbers in terms of a differential two-form on G and a differential one-form on GxG. This is applied to the case of the central extension of the loop…

This note presents a procedure to determine the reduction of the irreducible and the induced characters of the symmetric group in terms of the irreducible and induced characters of the hyperoctahedral group Key Words: Symmetric Group,…

In recent years, the notion of characteristic polynomial of representations of Lie algebras has been widely studied. This paper provides more properties of these characteristic polynomials. For simple Lie algebras, we characterize the…

We show that the Weyl-Kac type character formula holds for the integrable highest weight modules over the quantized enveloping algebra of any symmetrizable Kac-Moody Lie algebra, when the parameter $q$ is not a root of unity.

We formulate and prove the Siegel-Weil formula for loop groups.

Character groups of Hopf algebras appear in a variety of mathematical contexts such as non-commutative geometry, renormalisation of quantum field theory, numerical analysis and the theory of regularity structures for stochastic partial…

We give a new formula for the irreducible spin characters of the symmetric groups. This formula is analogous to Stanley's character formula for the usual (linear) characters of the symmetric groups.
