We establish the existence of global weak solutions of the 2D incompressible Euler equation, for a large class of non-smooth open sets. These open sets are the complements (in a simply connected domain) of a finite number of connected…

We show that for every nonelementary representation of a surface group into $SL(2,{\mathbb C})$ there is a Riemann surface structure such that the Higgs bundle associated to the representation lies outside the discriminant locus of the…

Let $(V, G)$ be an orthogonal representation of a compact Lie group $G$ with nontrivial copolarity, and $\Sigma$ a fat section of $(V, G)$. If $E$ is a $G$-invariant compact convex set in $V$, then $P=E\cap\Sigma$ is a convex set in…

We investigate representations of K\"ahler groups $\Gamma = \pi_1(X)$ to a semisimple non-compact Hermitian Lie group $G$ that are deformable to a representation admitting an (anti)-holomorphic equivariant map. Such representations obey a…

We determine semisimple reductions of irreducible, 2-dimensional crystalline representations of the absolute Galois group $\text{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{Q}_p}/\mathbb{Q}_{p^f})$. To this end, we provide explicit representatives for the…

All indecomposable finite-dimensional representations of the homogeneous Galilei group which when restricted to the rotation subgroup are decomposed to spin 0, 1/2 and 1 representations are constructed and classified. These representations…

This Ph.D. thesis belongs to the realm of mod $p$ representation theory of $p$-adic groups. The main object of study is the inner form of the general linear group $\mathrm{GL}(m,D)$ where $D$ is a division algebra over a non-Archimedean…

The odd character variety of a Riemann surface is a moduli space of SO(3) representations of the fundamental group which can be interpreted as the moduli space of stable holomorphic rank 2 bundles of odd degree and fixed determinant. This…

We continue the study of low dimensional linear representations of mapping class groups of surfaces initiated by Franks--Handel and Korkmaz. We consider $(2g+1)$-dimensional complex linear representations of the pure mapping class groups of…

We describe our conjecture about the irreducible unitary representations of reductive Lie groups, in the special case of $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{R})$.

We introduce a new class of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$-triples in a complex simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, which we call magical. Such an $\mathfrak{sl}_2$-triple canonically defines a real form and various decompositions of $\mathfrak{g}$.…

Let $G$ be a $(2,m,n)$-group and let $x$ be the number of distinct primes dividing $\chi$, the Euler characteristic of $G$. We prove, first, that, apart from a finite number of known exceptions, a non-abelian simple composition factor $T$…

Consider $ G:= PSL_2(\R)\equiv T^1\H^2$, a modular group $ \Gamma$, and the homogeneous space $ \Gamma\sm G \equiv T^1(\Gamma\sm\H^2)$. Endow $ G $, and then $ \Gamma\sm G $, with a canonical left-invariant metric, thereby equipping it with…

We investigate closed subgroups $G \subseteq \mathrm{Sp}_{2g}(\mathbb{Z}_2)$ whose modulo-$2$ images coincide with the image $\mathfrak{S}_{2g + 1} \subseteq \mathrm{Sp}_{2g}(\mathbb{F}_2)$ of $S_{2g + 1}$ or the image $\mathfrak{S}_{2g +…

We study the representation theory of various convolution algebras attached to the $q$-deformation of $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{R})$ from an algebraic perspective and beyond the unitary case. We show that many aspects of the classical…

We give a precise counting result on the symmetric space of a noncompact real algebraic semisimple group $G,$ for a class of discrete subgroups of $G$ that contains, for example, representations of a surface group on $\textrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb…

We study representations of the classical infinite dimensional real simple Lie groups $G$ induced from factor representations of minimal parabolic subgroups $P$. This makes strong use of the recently developed structure theory for those…

The group is interesting as the first example of split rank 2 semisimple group, all the irreducible unitary representations of which are known. We make a precise realization of the discrete series representations (in Section 2) by using the…
