Let $G$ be a split reductive group over a local field $\bK$, and let $G((t))$ be the corresponding loop group. In \cite{GK} we have introduced the notion of a representation of (the group of $\bK$-points) of $G((t))$ on a pro-vector space.…

Let $\mathcal M$ be a factor von Neumann algebra with separable predual and let $T\in \mathcal M$. We call $T$ an irreducible operator (relative to $\mathcal M$) if $W^*(T)$ is an irreducible subfactor of $\mathcal M$, i.e., $W^*(T)'\cap…

A finite subgroup of $GL(n,\mathbb C)$ is involutory if the sum of the dimensions of its irreducible complex representations is given by the number of absolute involutions in the group. A uniform combinatorial model is constructed for all…

The representation theory for categorical groups is constructed. Each categorical group determines a monoidal bicategory of representations. Typically, these categories contain representations which are indecomposable but not irreducible. A…

Suppose B is the unital algebra consisting of the algebraic product of full matrix algebras over an index set X. A bijection is set up between the equivalence classes of irreducible representations of B as operators on a Banach space and…

We classify all irreducible admissible representations of three Olshanski pairs connected to the infinite symmetric group. In particular, our methods yield two simple proofs of the classical Thoma's description of the characters of the…

We classify the irreducible representations of a family of finite-dimensional pointed liftings $H_\lambda$ of the Nichols algebra associated with the diagram $A_2$ with parameter $q=-1$. We show that these algebras have infinite…

In this paper we review and streamline some results of Kirillov, Olshanski and Pickrell on unitary representations of the unitary group $\U(\cH)$ of a real, complex or quaternionic separable Hilbert space and the subgroup $\U_\infty(\cH)$,…

We investigate questions of maximal symmetry in Banach spaces and the structure of certain bounded non-unitarisable groups on Hilbert space. In particular, we provide structural information about bounded groups with an essentially unique…

A result of D. Segal states that every complex irreducible representation of a finitely generated nilpotent group $G$ is monomial if and only if $G$ is abelian-by-finite. A conjecture of A. N. Parshin, recently proved affirmatively by I.V.…

A theorem of Y. Berest, P. Etingof and V. Ginzburg states that finite dimensional irreducible representations of a type A rational Cherednik algebra are classified by one rational number m/n. Every such representation is a representation of…

We give precise conditions under which irreducible representations associated to stability groups induce to irreducible representations for Fell bundle C*-algebras. This result generalizes an earlier result of Echterhoff and the second…

The objective of this paper is to determine the finite dimensional, indecomposable representations of the algebra that is generated by two complex structures over the real numbers. Since the generators satisfy relations that are similar to…

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a separable von Neumann algebra with center $\mathcal{Z}(\mathcal{M})$. An operator $T$ in $\mathcal{M}$ is called irreducible if the von Neumann algebra $W^*(T)$ generated by $T$ has trivial relative commutant, i.e.,…

We introduce special classes of irreducible representations of groups: thick representations and dense representations. Denseness implies thickness, and thickness implies irreducibility. We show that absolute thickness and absolute…

We prove that the Steinberg representation of a connected reductive group over an infinite field is irreducible. For finite fields, this is a classical theorem of Steinberg and Curtis.

We consider the energy representation for the gauge group. The gauge group is the set of (C^{\infty})-mappings from a compact Riemannian manifold to a semi-simple compact Lie group. In this paper, we obtain irreducibility of the energy…

We study unitary representations associated to cocycles of measurable dynamical systems. Our main result establishes conditions on a cocycle, ensuring that ergodicity of the dynamical system under consideration is equivalent to…

Let $\Gamma$ be a group and $r_n(\Gamma)$ the number of its $n$-dimensional irreducible complex representations. We define and study the associated representation zeta function $\calz_\Gamma(s) = \suml^\infty_{n=1} r_n(\Gamma)n^{-s}$. When…

We establish a general CCR (liminarity) property for uniformly bounded irreducible representations of nilpotent Lie groups on reflexive Banach spaces, extending the well known property of unitary irreducible representations of these groups…
