The purpose of this paper is to find the characterization of the Sheffer polynomial sets satisfying the d-orthogonality conditions. The generating function form of these polynomial sets is given in Theorem 2.2. As applications of the…

In this paper we show that the convolution product of "almost characters" of a connected reductive group over a finite field is given by "structure constants" whose leading coefficients can be interpreted in K-theoretic terms and in…

In this paper, we define the notion of graph trace kernels as a generalization of trace kernels. We associate a microlocal Lefschetz class with a graph trace kernel and prove that this class is functorial with respect to the composition of…

Block character of a finite symmetric group S(n) is a positive definite function which depends only on the number of cycles in permutation. We describe the cone of block characters by identifying its extreme rays, and find relations of the…

We consider groups where the centers of the irreducible characters form a chain. We obtain two alternate characterizations of these groups, and we obtain some information regarding the structure of these groups. Using our results, we are…

This paper introduces the notion of a derived splinter. Roughly speaking, a scheme is a derived splinter if it splits off from the coherent cohomology of any proper cover. Over a field of characteristic 0, this condition characterises…

In this short note we give a characterization of ZM-groups that uses the functions defined and studied in [3,4]. This leads to a proof of Conjecture 6 in [4].

We examine the localizing subcategories of the derived category of quasi-coherent sheaves on the projective line over a field. We provide a complete classification of all such subcategories which arise as the kernel of a cohomological…

In this paper, we describe the possible disconnected complex reductive algebraic groups $E$ with component group $\Gamma = E/E_0$. We show that there is a natural bijection between such groups $E$ and algebraic extensions of $\Gamma$ by…

We introduce characteristic classes for the spectral sequence associated to a split short exact sequence of Hopf algebras. We show that these characteristic classes can be seen as obstructions for the vanishing of differentials in the…

Motivated by the Problem $164$ proposed by Y. Berkovich and E. Zhmud' in their book "Characters of finite groups, Part $1$", we give a characterization of finite groups whose irreducible character codegrees are prime powers. This is based…

We show that perverse character varieties are (quasi-)affine. We do this in a purely stack-theoretic fashion, by exhibiting enough sections of the structure sheaf.

The theory of graphons has proven to be a powerful tool in many areas of graph theory. In this paper, we introduce several foundational aspects of the theory of digraphons -- asymmetric two-variable functions that arise as limits of…

We extend the Howlett-Isaacs theorem on the solvability of groups of central type taking into account actions by automorphisms. Then we study certain induced characters whose constituents have all the same degree.

In this papers, we study the geometric and arithmetic properties of the theta divisor associated to the sheaf of locally exact differential forms over a curve in positive characteristic. In this published version, we prove a stronger…

Using the construction by Bencs and T\'{o}th of invariant random subgroups on weakly branch groups acting on regular rooted trees we produce uncountably many indecomposable characters on these groups. In fact, we study three types of…

As shown by Bonnaf\'e, a step in proving a Jordan decomposition of characters of finite special linear groups is the parametrization of unipotent characters of centralizers of semi-simple elements in projective linear groups. We show the…

For a split reductive group defined over a number field, we first introduce the notations of arithmetic torsors and arithmetic Higgs torsors. Then we construct arithmetic characteristic curves associated to arithmetic Higgs torsors, based…

We determine the irreducible constituents of the Steinberg character of an orthogonal group over a finite field restricted to the orthogonal group of one less dimension

Let $G$ be a unipotent group over a field of characteristic $p > 0$. The theory of character sheaves on $G$ was initiated by V. Drinfeld and developed jointly with D. Boyarchenko. They also introduced the notion of $\mathbb{L}$-packets of…
