There is a unique finite group that lies inside the 2-dimensional unitary group but not in the special unitary group, and maps by the symmetric square to an irreducible subgroup of the 3-dimensional real special orthogonal group. In an…

A unitary finite dimensional quandle representation is decomposable into a direct sum of irreducible represenations. Not all quandle representations satisfy this property. We prove that a finite dimensional quandle represenation $\rho :Q…

We consider the quantum algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ with $q$ not a root of unity. We describe the finite-dimensional irreducible $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$-modules from the point of view of the equitable presentation.

We exhibit examples of finitely presented subgroups $P$ of direct products of hyperbolic groups for which there is no algorithm that detects whether a finitely presented group has a quotient isomorphic to $P$. For any torsion-free, linear,…

We continue our study of Hilbert space representations of the Reflection Equation Algebra, again focusing on the algebra constructed from the $R$-matrix associated to the $q$-deformation of $GL(N,\mathbb{C})$ for $0<q<1$. We develop a form…

In this paper we provide a general condition for the reducibility of the Reshetikhin-Turaev quantum representations of the mapping class groups. Namely, for any modular tensor category with a special symmetric Frobenius algebra with a…

Highest weight representations of $U_q(su(1,1))$ with $q=\exp \pi i/N$ are investigated. The structures of the irreducible hieghesat weight modules are discussed in detail. The Clebsch-Gordan decomposition for the tensor product of two…

In this paper we obtain the orthogonality relations for the supergroup U(m|n), which are remarkably different from the ones for the U(N) case. We extend our results for ordinary representations, obtained some time ago, to the case of…

We define for real $q$ a unital $*$-algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R}))$ quantizing the universal enveloping $*$-algebra of $\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R})$. The $*$-algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R}))$ is realized as a…

Let G be a reductive group over a non-archimedean local field F. Consider an arbitrary Bernstein block Rep(G)^s in the category of complex smooth G-representations. In earlier work the author showed that there exists an affine Hecke algebra…

We present a conjecture on the irreducibility of the tensor products of fundamental representations of quantized affine algebras. This conjecture implies in particular that the irreducibility of the tensor products of fundamental…

We derive orthogonality relations for discrete q-ultraspherical polynomials and their duals by means of operators of representations of the quantum algebra su_q(1,1). Spectra and eigenfunctions of these operators are found explicitly. These…

We study the irreducible unitary highest weight representations, which are obtained from free field realizations, of $W$ infinity algebras ($W_{\infty}$, $W_{1+\infty}$, $W_{\infty}^{1,1}$, $W_{\infty}^M$, $W_{1+\infty}^N$,…

Let g be a simple Lie algebra and q transcendental. We consider the category C_P of finite-dimensional representations of the quantum loop algebra Uq(Lg) in which the poles of all l-weights belong to specified finite sets P. Given the data…

The aim of this article is to study the existence of certain reducible, metabelian representations of knot groups into $\mathrm{SL}(n,\mathbf{C})$ which generalise the representations studied previously by G.~Burde and G.~de Rham. Under…

We study the TQFT mapping class group representations for surfaces with boundary associated with the $SU(2)$ gauge group, or equivalently the quantum group $U_q(\Sl(2))$. We show that at a prime root of unity, these representations are all…

E(2) is studied as the automorphism group of the Heisenberg algebra H. The basis in the Hilbert space K of functions on H on which the unitary irreducible representations of the group are realized is explicitely constructed. The addition…

We give explicit expression of recurrency formulae of canonical realization for quantum enveloping algebras $U_{q}(sl(n+1,C))$. In these formulas the generators of the algebra $U_{q}(sl(n+1,C))$ are expressed by means of n-canonical q-boson…

Induced representations for quantum groups are defined starting from coisotropic quantum subgroups and their main properties are proved. When the coisotropic quantum subgroup has a suitably defined section such representations can be…

An axiomatic approach to the representation theory of Coxeter groups and their Hecke algebras was presented in [1]. Combinatorial aspects of this construction are studied in this paper. In particular, the symmetric group case is…
