The quantum mechanics of one degree of freedom exhibiting the exact conformal SL(2,R) symmetry is presented. The starting point is the classification of the unitary irreducible representations of the SL(2,R) group (or, to some extent, its…
In this paper, we construct certain unipotent representations for the real orthogonal group and the metaplectic group in the sense of Vogan. Our construction is based on quantum induction which involves the compositions of even number of…
The matrix elements of unitary $SU_q(3)$ corepresentations, which are analogues of the symmetric powers of the natural repesentation, are shown to be the bivariate $q$-Krawtchouk orthogonal polynomials, thus providing an algebraic…
We give a finite presentation by generators and relations for the group O_n(Z[1/2]) of n-dimensional orthogonal matrices with entries in Z[1/2]. We then obtain a similar presentation for the group of n-dimensional orthogonal matrices of the…

We prove that each action of a compact matrix quantum group on a compact quantum space can be decomposed into irreducible representations of the group. We give the formula for the corresponding multiplicities in the case of the quotient…

We consider spaces of modular forms attached to definite orthogonal groups of low even rank and nontrivial level, equipped with Hecke operators defined by Kneser neighbours. After reviewing algorithms to compute with these spaces, we…
The permutation group $S_N$ has a quantum analogue $S_N^+$, which is infinite at $N\geq4$. We review the known facts regarding $S_N^+$, and notably its easiness property, Weingarten calculus, and the isomorphism $S_4^+=SO_3^{-1}$ and its…
We express the real connective $K$ theory groups of the quaternion QL group of order $2^j\ge8$ in terms of the representation theory of by showing $ko_{4k-1}(BQL)=KSp(S^{4k+3}/\tau QL)$ where $tau$ is any fixed point free representation of…
Explicit expressions for the generators of the quantum superalgebra $U_q[gl(n/m)]$ acting on a class of irreducible representations are given. The class under consideration consists of all essentially typical representations: for these a…
We construct an algebra embedding of the quantum group $U_q(\mathfrak{g})$ into the quantum coordinate ring $\mathcal{O}_q[G^{w_0,w_0}/H]$ of the reduced big double Bruhat cell in $G$. This embedding factors through the Heisenberg double…
A review of the multiparametric linear quantum group GL_qr(N), its real forms, its dual algebra U(gl_qr(N)) and its bicovariant differential calculus is given in the first part of the paper. We then construct the (multiparametric) linear…
The quantum algebra suq(2) is introduced as a deformation of the ordinary Lie algebra su(2). This is achieved in a simple way by making use of $q$-bosons. In connection with the quantum algebra suq(2), we discuss the q-analogues of the…
In a previous paper the generator matrix elements and (dual) vector reduced Wigner coefficients (RWCs) were evaluated via the polynomial identities satisfied by a certain matrix constructed from the $R$-matrix $R$ and its twisted…
The automorphic cohomology of a connected reductive algebraic group defined over Q decomposes as a direct algebraic sum of cuspidal and Eisenstein cohomology. In the present paper we construct regular Eisenstein cohomology classes for…
We study actions of compact quantum groups on type I factors, which may be interpreted as projective representations of compact quantum groups. We generalize to this setting some of Woronowicz' results concerning Peter-Weyl theory for…
Some time ago, Rideau and Winternitz introduced a realization of the quantum algebra su_q(2) on a real two-dimensional sphere, or a real plane, and constructed a basis for its representations in terms of q-special functions, which can be…
We classify irreducible finite-dimensional modules of a collection of real Lie superalgebras that includes the simple ones, their classical variants, complex Lie superalgebras after restriction of scalars, and all real Lie algebras. Our…
This article shows that one can consistently incorporate nonunitary representations of at least one group into the ``ordinary'' nonrelativistic quantum mechanics. This group turns out to be Lorentz group thus giving us an alternative…
