The main result describes the Brauer-Nesbitt reduction of unipotent representations of a finite group of Lie type, expressing it as an explicit linear combination of the restriction of Weyl modules from the algebraic group to the group of…
A unital $\ell$-group $(G,u)$ is an abelian group $G$ equipped with a translation-invariant lattice-order and a distinguished element $u$, called order-unit, whose positive integer multiples eventually dominate each element of $G$. We…
In this paper we prove that for any connected reductive algebraic group G and a large enough prime $l$, there are continuous homomorphisms $$\mathrm{Gal}(\bar\mathbb Q/\mathbb Q) \to G(\bar\mathbb Q_l)$$ with Zariski-dense image, in…
We show that the irreducible representation of the asymptotic Hecke algebra corresponding to a special representation of a Weyl group admits a basis with strong positivity properties.
We discuss the category $\cal I$ of level zero integrable representations of loop algebras and their generalizations. The category is not semisimple and so one is interested in its homological properties. We begin by looking at some…
Let $G$ be a semisimple algebraic group over the complex numbers and $K$ be a connected reductive group mapping to $G$ so that the Lie algebra of $K$ gets identified with a symmetric subalgebra of $\mathfrak{g}$. So we can talk about…
Let ${\mathbb{G}}$ be a simply connected ${\mathbb{Z}}_\ell$-spets, let $q$ be a prime power, prime to $\ell$ and let $S$ be the underlying Sylow $\ell$-subgroup. Firstly, motivated by known formulae for values of Deligne-Lusztig characters…
Let $G$ be a general linear group over $\BR$, $\BC$, or $\BH$, or a real unitary group. In this paper, we precisely describe the number of isomorphism classes of irreducible Casselman-Wallach representations of $G$ with a given…
Intrigued by a well-known theorem of Mathieu's on Harish-Chandra modules over the Virasoro algebra, we give an analogous result for a class of Block type Lie algebras $\BB$, where the parameter $q$ is a nonzero complex number. We also…
The wavefront set is a fundamental invariant of an admissible representation arising from the Harish-Chandra-Howe local character expansion. In this paper, we give a precise formula for the wavefront set of an irreducible representation of…
We construct a special principal series representation for the modular double $U_{q\tilde{q}}(g_R)$ of type $A_r$ representing the generators by positive essentially self-adjoint operators satisfying the transcendental relations that also…
We make a first step towards a classification of simple generalized Harish-Chandra modules which are not Harish-Chandra modules or weight modules of finite type. For an arbitrary algebraic reductive pair of complex Lie algebras $(\g,\k)$,…
Let $G$ be a finite group of Lie type and $\St_k$ be the Steinberg representation of $G$, defined over a field $k$. We are interested in the case where $k$ has prime characteristic~$\ell$ and $\St_k$ is reducible. Tinberg has shown that the…
This paper describes the module categories for a family of generic Hecke algebras that specialize to the complex reflection groups G(r,1,n) and to the certain endomorphism rings of permutation characters of finite general linear groups. In…
Let $p$ be a prime number and $\Bbbk=\bar{\mathbb{F}}_p$, the algebraic closure of the finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$ of $p$ elements. Let ${\bf G}$ be a connected reductive group defined over $\mathbb{F}_p$ and ${\bf B}$ be a Borel subgroup…
We revisit G. Elek's notion of amenable representation type, where algebras are characterised by every indecomposable module being "almost" the direct sum of modules of bounded dimension. We give a new proof of his result that string…
Let F be a finite field with q elements, let A be a finite dimensional F-algebra and let J=J(A) be the Jacobson radical of A. Then G=1+J is a p-group, where p is the characteristic of F. We refer to G as an F-algebra group. A subgroup H of…
For any complex parameters a,b, the W(a,b) algebra is the Lie algebra with basis {L_i,W_i|i\in Z}, and relations [L_i,L_j]=(j-i)L_{i+j}, [L_i,W_j]=(a+j+bi)W_{i+j},[W_i,W_j]=0. In this paper, indecomposable modules of the intermediate series…
Basic modules of McLain groups $M=M(\Lambda,\leq, R)$ are defined and investigated. These are (possibly infinite dimensional) analogues of Andr\'e's supercharacters of $U_n(q)$. The ring $R$ need not be finite or commutative and the field…
