Coxeter Combinatorics For Sum Formulas In The Representation Theory Of Algebraic Groups

Jonathan Gruber

Let G be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field F of characteristic p >= h, the Coxeter number of G. We observe an easy 'recursion formula' for computing the Jantzen sum formula of a Weyl module with p-regular highest weight. We also d ...

Lie groups as permutation groups: Ulam's problem in the nilpotent case

Nicolas Monod

Ulam asked whether every connected Lie group can be represented on a countable structure. This is known in the linear case. We establish it for the first family of non-linear groups, namely in the nilpotent case. Further context is discussed to illustrate ...

An elementary treatment on the diffraction of crystalline structures

Gervais Chapuis

Although W. L. Bragg's law can be easily derived for beginners in the field of crystallography, its interpretation however seems to cause some difficulties which lies essentially in the relation between the concept of lattice planes and the unit cell const ...

Spectra of non-regular elements in irreducible representations of simple algebraic groups

Donna Testerman

We study the spectra of non-regular semisimple elements in irreducible representations of simple algebraic groups. More precisely, we prove that if G is a simply connected simple linear algebraic group and φ : G → GL(V ) is a non-trivial irreducible repres ...

Spherical birational sheets in reductive groups

Filippo Ambrosio

We classify the spherical birational sheets in a complex simple simply-connected algebraic group. We use the classification to show that, when G is a connected reductive complex algebraic group with simply-connected derived subgroup, two conjugacy classes ...

Remarks on the derived center of small quantum groups

Anna Lachowska

Let u(q)(g) be the small quantum group associated with a complex semisimple Lie algebra g and a primitive root of unity q, satisfying certain restrictions. We establish the equivalence between three different actions of g on the center of u(q)(g) and on th ...

Almost impossible E_8 and Leech lattices

Maryna Viazovska

We start this short note by introducing two remarkable mathematical objects: the E8E8 root lattice Lambda8Lambda8 in 8-dimensional Euclidean space and the Leech lattice Lambda24Lambda24 in 24-dimensional space. These two lattices stand out among their lat ...

On complete reducibility of tensor products of simple modules over simple algebraic groups

Jonathan Gruber

Let G be a simply connected simple algebraic group over an al- gebraically closed ﬁeld k of characteristic p > 0. The category of rationalG-modules is not semisimple. We consider the question of when the tensorproduct of two simple G-modules L(λ) and L(μ) ...

Multi-scale approach for the prediction of atomic scale properties

Michele Ceriotti, Jigyasa Nigam, Andrea Grisafi

Electronic nearsightedness is one of the fundamental principles that governs the behavior of condensed matter and supports its description in terms of local entities such as chemical bonds. Locality also underlies the tremendous success of machine-learning ...

Geodesic flows on real forms of complex semi-simple Lie groups of rigid body type

Tudor Ratiu

The geodesic flows are studied on real forms of complex semi-simple Lie groups with respect to a left-invariant (pseudo-)Riemannian metric of rigid body type. The Williamson types of the isolated relative equilibria on generic adjoint orbits are determined ...
