The algebra of invariants of d-tuples of n x n skew-symmetric matrices under the action of the orthogonal group by simultaneous conjugation is considered over an infinite field of characteristic different from two. For n=3 and d>0 a minimal…

Let $F$ be a nonarchimedean local field of characteristic zero and let SL(N) = SL(N,F). This article is devoted to studying the influence of the elliptic representations of SL(N) on the $K$-theory. We provide full arithmetic details. This…

Wigner's little groups are the subgroups of the Lorentz group whose transformations leave the momentum of a given particle invariant. They thus define the internal space-time symmetries of relativistic particles. These symmetries take…

We classify simple flops on smooth threefolds, or equivalently, Gorenstein threefold singularities with irreducible small resolution. There are only six families of such singularities, distinguished by Koll{\'a}r's {\em length} invariant.…

For G=SL_n or GL_n we construct representations V such that the invariant ring K[V]^G is not Cohen-Macaulay.

The space $\mathcal{Z}$ of leftinvariant orthogonal almost complex structures, keeping the orientation, on 6-dimensional Lie groups is researched. To get explicit view of this space elements the isomorphism of $\mathcal{Z}$ and…

Consider the Fourier transform on the group $GL(2,R)$ of real $2\times 2$-matrices. We show that Fourier-images of polynomial differential operators on $GL(2,R)$ are differential-difference operators with coefficients meromorphic in…

We study basic geometric properties of some group analogue of affine Springer fibers and compare with the classical Lie algebra affine Springer fibers. The main purpose is to formulate a conjecture that relates the number of irreducible…

We compute symmetry algebras of a system of two equations y^(k)=z^(l)=0, where 2<=k<l. It appears that there are many ways to convert such system of ODEs to an exterior differential system. They lead to different series of…

Let $G$ denote the projective special linear group $\text{PSL}(2,q)$, for a prime power $q$. It is shown that a finite 2-subgroup of the group $V(\mathbb{Z}G)$ of augmentation 1 units in the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z}G$ of $G$ is…

We present a classification, up to isomorphisms, of all the homogeneous spaces of the Lorentz group with dimension lower than six. At the same time, we classify, up to conjugation, all the non-discrete closed subgroup of the Lorentz group…

We produce an example of an irreducible discrete subgroup in the product $SL(2,\R)\times SL(2,\R)$ which is not a lattice. This answers a question asked in [15].

Solution and analysis of mathematical programming problems may be simplified when these problems are symmetric under appropriate linear transformations. In particular, a knowledge of the symmetries may help reduce the problem dimension, cut…

Denote the free group on two letters by F2 and the SL(3,C)-representation variety of F2 by R = Hom(F2, SL(3,C)). There is a SL(3,C)-action on the coordinate ring of R, and the geometric points of the subring of invariants is an affine…

We incorporate nonlinear covers of quasisplit reductive groups into the Langlands program, defining an L-group associated to such a cover. This L-group is an extension of the absolute Galois group of a local or global field $F$ by a complex…

The Klein group contains only four elements. Nevertheless this little group contains a number of remarkable entry points to current highways of modern representation theory of groups. In this paper, we shall describe all possible ways in…

We give a minimal system of 476 generators (resp. 510 generators) for the algebra of SL(2,C)-covariant polynomials on binary forms of degree 9 (resp. degree 10). These results were only known as conjectures so far. The computations rely on…

We give the complete classification of left-invariant sub-Riemannian structures on three dimensional Lie groups in terms of the basic differential invariants. This classifications recovers other known classification results in the…

The spectrum $\omega(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is the set of element orders of $G$. If $\Omega$ is a non-empty subset of the set of natural numbers, $h(\Omega)$ stands for the number of isomorphism classes of finite groups $G$ with…

For the p-adic group G=SL (2) , we present results of the computations of the sums of the Bernstein projectors of a given depth. Motivation for the computations is based on a conversation with Roger Howe in August 2013. The computations are…
