Graded Hecke algebras can be constructed in terms of equivariant cohomology and constructible sheaves on nilpotent cones. In earlier work, their standard modules and their irreducible modules where realized with such geometric methods. We…

Using vertex operators, we construct explicitly Lusztig's $\mathbb Z[q, q^{-1}]$-lattice for the level one irreducible representations of quantum affine algebras of ADE type. We then realize the level one irreducible modules at roots of…

We construct a family of infinite-dimensional positive sub-coalgebras within the Grothendieck ring of Hecke algebras, when viewed as a Hopf algebra with respect to the induction and restriction functor. These sub-coalgebras have as…

We compute both natural and smooth models for the $SL_2(\mathbb C)$ character varieties of the two component double twist links, an infinite family of two-bridge links indexed as $J(k,l)$. For each $J(k,l)$, the component(s) of the…

We investigate the characters of some finite-dimensional representations of the quantum affine algebras $U_q(\hat{g})$ using the action of the copy of $U_q(g)$ embedded in it. First, we present an efficient algorithm for computing the…

Two classes of irreducible highest weight modules of the general linear Lie superalgebra $gl(1/\infty)$ are constructed. Within each module a basis is introduced and the transformation relations of the basis under the action of the algebra…

Inspired by the foundational work of Bezrukavnikov and Chan \cite{BC24} on character sheaves for parahoric subgroups and an alternative interpretation of deep level Deligne-Lusztig characters in \cite{Nie_24}, we present a parallel but…

We prove a new determinantal formula for the characters of irreducible representations of orthosymplectic Lie superalgebras analogous to the formula developed by Moens and Jeugt (J. Algebraic Combin., 2003) for general linear Lie…

Culler-Shalen theory uses the algebraic geometry of the SL(2,C)-character variety of a 3-manifold to construct essential surfaces in the manifold. There are module structures associated to the coordinate rings of the irreducible components…

Given an algebraically closed field $F$ of characteristic 0 and an $F$-vector space $V$, let $L(V)=V\oplus\Lambda^2(V)$ denote the free 2-step nilpotent Lie algebra associated to $V$. In this paper, we classify all uniserial representations…

Let $\mathbf{G}$ be a connected reductive algebraic group over an algebraic closure $\overline{\mathbb{F}_p}$ of the finite field of prime order $p$ and let $F : \mathbf{G} \to \mathbf{G}$ be a Frobenius endomorphism with $G = \mathbf{G}^F$…

Ganter and Kapranov associated a 2-character to 2-representations of a finite group. Elgueta classified 2-representations in the category of 2-vector spaces 2Vect_k in terms of cohomological data. We give an explicit formula for the…

The Iwahori-Hecke algebra $\mathcal{H}$ of a Coxeter system $(W,S)$ has a "standard basis" indexed by the elements of $W$ and a "bar involution" given by a certain antilinear map. Together, these form an example of what Webster calls a…

The problem of computing the characters of the finite dimensional irreducible representations of the Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{gl}(m|n)$ over $\C$ was solved a few years ago by V. Serganova. In this article, we present an entirely…

The canonical basis for quantized universal enveloping algebras associated to the finite--dimensional simple Lie algebras, was introduced by Lusztig. The principal technique is the explicit construction (via the braid group action) of a…
