چکیده

A representation of a group is a realization of its elements in terms of matrices that takes the group operation into matrix multiplication. The groups of permutations (symmetric groups) were among the first families of groups for which the representations were classified in the work of Frobenius, Schur and Young around 1900. It was found that the irreducible representations of the nth permutation group are parametrized by integer partitions of n. Taking the determinant of the representing matrix results in either the trivial character, or in the sign character of the nth permutation group.

Partition complexes , duality and integral tree representations

We show that the poset of non-trivial partitions of {1, 2, . . . , n} has a fundamental homology class with coefficients in a Lie superalgebra. Homological duality then rapidly yields a range of known results concerning the integral representations of the symmetric groups Σn and Σn+1 on the homology and cohomology of this partially-ordered set.

Some bounds on unitary duals of classical groups‎ - ‎non-archimeden case

‎We first give bounds for domains where the unitarizabile subquotients can show up in the parabolically induced representations of classical $p$-adic groups‎. ‎Roughly‎, ‎they can show up only if the‎ ‎central character of the inducing irreducible cuspidal representation is dominated by the‎ ‎square root of the modular character of the minimal parabolic subgroup‎. ‎For unitarizable subquotients...

ساختار فاز میدانهای پیمانه‌ای شبکه‌ای دو بعدی U(N) با کنش مختلط

  We study the phase structure of two dimensional pure lattice gauge theory with a Chern term. The symmetry groups are non-Abelian, finite and disconnected sub-groups of SU(3). Since the action is imaginary it introduces a rich phase structure compared to the originally trivial two dimensional pure gauge theory. The Z3 group is the center of these groups and the result shows that if we use one ...

Asymptotic Results on Modular Representations of Symmetric Groups and Almost Simple Modular Group Algebras

In fact, this is a question about infinite simple groups because it is easy for G finite, and because a non-trivial normal subgroup gives rise to a non-trivial ideal different from the augmentation ideal. Also note that the problem reduces easily to the question on when the augmentation ideal is simple as a ring. The first interesting class of groups with almost simple FG was discovered in [3]....

Reducibility of quantum representations of mapping class groups

In this paper we provide a general condition for the reducibility of the ReshetikhinTuraev quantum representations of the mapping class groups. Namely, for any modular tensor category with a special symmetric Frobenius algebra with a non-trivial genus one partition function, we prove that the quantum representations of all the mapping class groups built from the modular tensor category are redu...
