Let $M$ be a $3$-manifold, compact with boundary and $\Gamma$ its fundamental group. Consider a complex reductive algebraic group G. The character variety $X(\Gamma,G)$ is the GIT quotient $\mathrm{Hom}(\Gamma,G)//G$ of the space of…

We propose a conjecture relating two different sets of characters for the complex reflection group $G(d,1,n)$. From one side, the characters are afforded by Calogero-Moser cells, a conjectural generalisation of Kazhdan-Lusztig cells for a…

We construct new families of U_q(gl_n)-modules by continuation from finite dimensional representations. Each such module is associated with a combinatorial object - admissible set of relations defined in \cite{FRZ}. More precisely, we prove…

We develop representation theory of general linear groups in the category $\text{Ver}_4^+$, the simplest tensor category which is not Frobenius exact. Since $\text{Ver}_4^+$ is a reduction of the category of supervector spaces to…

We examine whether it is possible to realize finite groups $G$ as Galois groups of minimally tamely ramified extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$ and also specify both the inertia groups and the further decomposition of the ramified primes.

In this paper, we present a vertex operator approach to construct and compute all complex irreducible characters of the general linear group $\GL_n(\mathbb F_q)$. Green's theory of $\GL_n(\mathbb F_q)$ is recovered and enhanced under the…

This paper identifies all pairs of ordinary irreducible characters of the alternating group which agree on conjugacy classes of elements of order not divisible by a fixed integer $l$, for $l \neq 3$. We do the same for the double covers of…

If $H$ is a Hall subgroup of a finite group $G$, it was proven in 1989 using the classification of finite simple groups that all the irreducible complex characters of $H$ extend to $G$ if and only if there is $N\trianglelefteq G$ such that…

The decomposition of the linear-order metric perturbation is discussed in the context of the higher-order gauge-invariant perturbation theory. We show that the linear order metric perturbation is decomposed into gauge-invariant and…

In this paper we propose a construction of generic character sheaves on reductive groups over finite local rings at even levels, whose characteristic functions are higher Deligne--Lusztig characters when the parameters are generic. We…

We introduce immanant varieties, associated to simple characters of a finite group. They include well-studied classes of varieties, as Segre embeddings, Grassmannians and certain other classes of Chow varieties. For a one-dimensional…

In this article we construct $GL_{h}(3)$ from $GL_{q}(3)$ by a singular map. We show that there exist two singular maps which map $GL_{q}(3)$ to new quantum groups. We also construct their $R$-matrices and will show although the maps are…

In this paper we expand on previous results, studying the extent to which one can detect fusion in certain finite groups $\Gamma$, from information about the universal deformation rings of absolutely irreducible…

Refinements of the transchromatic generalized character maps are constructed by taking into account the torus action on the inertia groupoid (also known as the Fix functor). The relationship between this construction and the geometry of…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group and $\chi,\psi$ be irreducible characters of $G$. We study the character $\chi\psi$ when $\chi\psi$ has at most $p-1$ distinct irreducible constituents.

We construct a natural bijection between odd-degree irreducible characters of S_n and linear characters of its Sylow 2-subgroup P_n. When n is a power of 2, we show that such a bijection is nicely induced by the restriction functor. We…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated nilpotent group and let G be a complex reductive algebraic group. The representation variety $\mathrm{Hom}(\Gamma,G)$ and the character variety $\mathrm{Hom}(\Gamma,G)//G$ each carry a natural topology,…

Nearly twenty years ago Isaacs and the first author of this paper wrote a series of articles \cite{isa2}, \cite{da3}, \cite{da2} about what were called ``stabilizer limits'' of group characters, following the terminology of Berger…

Immanants are polynomial functions of n by n matrices attached to irreducible characters of the symmetric group S_n, or equivalently to Young diagrams of size n. Immanants include determinants and permanents as extreme cases. Valiant proved…

We present an explicit formula for subregular characters (i.e, irreducible finite-dimensional complex characters of submaximal degree) of the unitriangular group over a finite field of sufficiently large characteristic.
