We provide an alternative exposition of a result due to Schinzel. Fix an integer $k \ge 2$. For almost all choices of positive integers $n_{1} < \cdots < n_{k}$, we show that the polynomial $F(x) = 1 + x^{n_{1}} + \cdots + x^{n_{k}}$,…

We study the cyclic $U(\mathfrak{gl}_n)$-module generated by the $l$-th power of the $\alpha$-determinant. When $l$ is a non-negative integer, for all but finite exceptional values of $alpha$, one shows that this cyclic module is isomorphic…

Let k be a field and A the n-Kronecker algebra, this is the path algebra of the quiver with 2 vertices, a source and a sink, and n arrows from the source to the sink. It is well-known that the dimension vectors of the indecomposable…

We give an algorithm for working out the indecomposable direct summands in a Krull--Schmidt decomposition of a tensor product of two simple modules for G=SL_3 in characteristics 2 and 3. It is shown that there is a finite family of modules…

Let $G$ be the special linear group of degree $2$ over an algebraically closed field $K$. Let $E$ be the natural module and $S^rE$ the $r$th symmetric power. We consider here, for $r,s\geq 0$, the tensor product of $S^rE$ and the dual of…

A family of symmetric functions $\tilde{s}_\lambda$ was introduced in [OZ], and independently in [AS]. The $\tilde{s}_\lambda$ encode many stability properties of representations of symmetric groups (e.g. when multiplied, the structure…

Using the entropic inequalities for Shannon and Tsallis entropies new inequalities for some classical polynomials are obtained. To this end, an invertible mapping for the irreducible unitary representation of groups $SU(2)$ and $SU(1,1)$…

In this paper we study the determinant of irreducible representations of the generalized symmetric groups $\mathbb{Z}_r \wr S_n$. We give an explicit formula to compute the determinant of an irreducible representation of $\mathbb{Z}_r \wr…

For positive integers $n>k$, let $P_{n,k}(x)=\displaystyle\sum_{j=0}^k \binom{n}{j}x^j $ be the polynomial obtained by truncating the binomial expansion of $(1+x)^n$ at the $k^{th}$ stage. These polynomials arose in the investigation of…

We give an introduction to some of the recent ideas that go under the name "geometric complexity theory". We first sketch the proof of the known upper and lower bounds for the determinantal complexity of the permanent. We then introduce the…

A fundamental open problem in algebraic combinatorics is to find a positive combinatorial formula for Kronecker coefficients, which are multiplicities of the decomposition of the tensor product of two \S_r-irreducibles into irreducibles.…

The decomposition of tensor products of representations into irreducibles is studied for a continuous family of integrable operator representations of $U_q(sl(2,R)$. It is described by an explicit integral transformation involving a…

We investigate the homology representation of the symmetric group on rank-selected subposets of subword order. We show that the homology module for words of bounded length, over an alphabet of size $n,$ decomposes into a sum of tensor…

Vector-valued Jack polynomials associated to the symmetric group ${\mathfrak S}_N$ are polynomials with multiplicities in an irreducible module of ${\mathfrak S}_N$ and which are simultaneous eigenfunctions of the Cherednik-Dunkl operators…

Let p be an odd prime, and A_n the alternating group of degree n. We determine which ordinary irreducible representations of A_n remain irreducible in characteristic p, verifying the author's conjecture from [Represent. Theory 14, 601-626].…

This is a short note about Schur positivity. We introduce Schur polynomials and explain how they appear in the representation theory of the general linear group. We end with a new result of the author with F. Bergeron and V. Reiner that…

We consider a group SO(2n+1) over a p-adic field, and tempered irreducible representations of this group, of unipotent reduction. We use the construction due to Lusztig of these representations. In an old paper with Moeglin, we have defined…

We give a conjectured evaluation of the determinant of a certain matrix $\tilde{D}(n,k)$. The entries of $\tilde{D}(n,k)$ are either 0 or specializations $\mathfrak{S}_w(1,\dots,1)$ of Schubert polynomials. The conjecture implies that the…

We present positivity conjectures for the Schur expansion of Jack symmetric functions in two bases given by binomial coefficients. Partial results suggest that there are rich combinatorics to be found in these bases, including Eulerian…

In this paper we characterize irreducible generic representations of $\SO_{2n+1}(k)$ where $k$ is a $p$-adic field) by means of twisted local gamma factors (the Local Converse Theorem). As applications, we prove that two irreducible generic…
