Using the character expansion method, we generalize several well-known integrals over the unitary group to the case where general complex matrices appear in the integrand. These integrals are of interest in the theory of random matrices and…

In this paper we prove a new characterization of the distinguished unipotent orbits of a connected reductive group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. For classical groups we prove the characterization by a combinatorial…

We extend to semi-abelian categories the notion of characteristic subobject, which is widely used in group theory and in the theory of Lie algebras. Moreover, we show that many of the classical properties of characteristic subgroups of a…

We study a class of perverse sheaves on the variety of pairs (P,gU_P) where P runs through a conjugacy class of parabolics in a connected reductive group G and gU_P runs through G/U_P. This is a generalization of the theory of character…

George Lusztig conjectured that asymptotic affine Hecke algebra of a simply connected group can be explicitly described in terms of convolution algebras. Main Theorem of this note (which is a continuation of RT/0010089) is a weak version of…

The simplicity of the induced modules for reductive Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic is studied, and a necessary and sufficient condition for the simplicity is given.

Character groups of Hopf algebras appear in a variety of mathematical and physical contexts. To name just a few, they arise in non-commutative geometry, renormalisation of quantum field theory, and numerical analysis. In the present article…

We study rational Cherednik algebras over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. We first prove several general results about category O, and then focus on rational Cherednik algebras associated to the general and special…

The purpose of this paper is to introduce and study certain irreducible perverse l-adic sheaves on a reductive group G over a finite field (we call them gamma-sheaves). One can construct such a sheaf starting with (almost) every…

The character theory of finite groups has numerous basic questions that are often already quite involved: enumerating of irreducible characters, their character formulas, point-wise product decompositions, and restriction/induction between…

We develop Lie theory in the category $\text{Ver}_4^+$ over a field of characteristic 2, the simplest tensor category which is not Frobenius exact, as a continuation of arXiv:2406.10201. We provide a conceptual proof that an operadic Lie…

Let L be a restricted Lie algebra over a field of positive characteristic. We survey the known results about the Lie structure of the restricted enveloping algebra u(L) of L. Related results about the structure of the group of units and the…

Lie solvable restricted enveloping algebras were characterized by Riley and Shalev except when the ground field is of characteristic 2. We resolve the characteristic 2 case here which completes the classification. As an application of our…

The paper is concerned with the character theory of finite groups of Lie type. The irreducible characters of a group $G$ of Lie type are partitioned in Lusztig series. We provide a simple formula for an upper bound of the maximal size of a…

The study of global deformations of Lie algebras is related to the problem of classification of simple Lie algebras over fields of small characteristic. The classification of finite-dimensional simple Lie algebras is complete over…

This is a companion article to my papers on Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials and character formulae for the Lie superalgebras gl(m|n) (much revised!) and q(n). The goal is to develop the general theory of tilting modules for Lie superalgebras,…

We show that, for a connected reductive algebraic group G over an algebraically closed field of zero or good characteristic, the parts, called strata, in the partition of G recently introduced by Lusztig are unions of sheets of conjugacy…

In some recent work, Lusztig outlined a generalisation of the construction of Deligne and Lusztig to reductive groups over finite rings coming from the ring of integers in a local field, modulo some power of the maximal ideal. Lusztig…

In 1980 Lusztig proved a stabilisation property of the affine Kazhdan-Lusztig polynomials. In this paper we give a categorical version of such a result using the theory of sheaves on moment graphs. This leads us to associate with any…

We consider the natural Lie algebra structure on the (associative) group algebra of a finite group $G$, and show that the Lie subalgebras associated to natural involutive antiautomorphisms of this group algebra are reductive ones. We give a…
