Let $\bf{G}$ be a connected reductive group with connected center defined over $\mathbb{F}_q$, with Frobenius morphism $F$. We parameterize all of the real-valued irreducible complex characters of ${\bf G}^F$ using the Jordan decomposition…

We consider an action of a countable amenable group on a compact metric space, focusing on the set of generic points with respect to a fixed F{\o}lner sequence. For a given characteristic class, we prove that the set of points that are…

We show that algebraic analogues of universal group covers, surjective group homomorphisms from a $\mathbb{Q}$-vector space to $F^{\times}$ with "standard kernel", are determined up to isomorphism of the algebraic structure by the…

Let G be a connected reductive group defined over a finite field F_q. We give a parametrization of the irreducible representations of G(F_q) in terms of (twisted) categorical centres of various monoidal categories associated to G. (Results…

A constructive characterization of the class of uniformly $4$-connected graphs is presented. The characterization is based on the application of graph operations to appropriate vertex and edge sets in uniformly $4$-connected graphs, that…

We consider the rigid monoidal category of character sheaves on a smooth commutative group scheme $G$ over a finite field $k$ and expand the scope of the function-sheaf dictionary from connected commutative algebraic groups to this setting.…

Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group of exceptional type over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$. This paper continues a long-standing effort to classify the connected reductive subgroups of $G$. Having previously…

We prove that if G is a discrete group that admits a metrically proper action on a finite-dimensional CAT(0) cube complex X, then G is weakly amenable. We do this by constructing uniformly bounded Hilbert space representations for which the…

We study testing properties of functions on finite groups. First we consider functions of the form $f:G \to \mathbb{C}$, where $G$ is a finite group. We show that conjugate invariance, homomorphism, and the property of being proportional to…

Let G be a reductive connected group over an algebraic closure of a finite field. I define a tensor structure on the category of perverse sheaves on G which are direct sums of unipotent character sheaves in a fixed two-sided cell, in…

The setting is the representation theory of a simply connected, semisimple algebraic group over a field of positive characteristic. There is a natural transformation from the wall-crossing functor to the identity functor. The kernel of this…

We prove a result that relates the number of homomorphisms from the fundamental group of a compact nonorientable surface to a finite group $G$, where conjugacy classes of the boundary components of the surface must map to prescribed…

Fix a scheme $S$ of characteristic $p$. Let $\mathscr{M}$ be an $S$-algebraic stack and let $\mbox{Fdiv}(\mathscr{M})$ be the stack of $\mbox{F}$-divided objects, that is sequences of objects $x_i\in\mathscr{M}$ with isomorphisms…

Let G be a connected reductive group and X be a smooth curve over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We show that every meromorphic G-connection on X admits a possibly degenerate oper structure; in particular, every…

Finite-sheeted covering mappings onto compact connected groups are studied. It is shown that a finite-sheeted covering mapping from a connected Hausdorff topological space onto a compact connected abelian group G must be a homeomorphism…

Let ${\bf G}$ be a connected reductive algebraic group defined over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ with $q$ elements. Let $\Bbbk$ be a field such that $\op{char} \Bbbk \ne \op{char} \mathbb{F}_q$. In this paper, we study the extensions of…

The aim of this paper is to prove characterization theorems for field homomorphisms. More precisely, the main result investigates the following problem. Let $n\in \mathbb{N}$ be arbitrary, $\mathbb{K}$ a field and $f_{1}, \ldots,…

The characteristic map for the symmetric group is an isomorphism relating the representation theory of the symmetric group to symmetric functions. An analogous isomorphism is constructed for the symmetric space of symplectic forms over a…

We show that for any constructible sheaf F on a smooth algebraic variety X over a field of arbitrary characteristic its singular support SS(F) is equidimensional of dimension dim X. Here SS(F) is the minimal closed subset of the cotangent…

This is a quick survey on the characteristic varieties associated to rank one local systems on a smooth, irreducible, quasi-projective complex variety $M$. A key new result is Proposition 1.8, giving additional information on the…
