Multiplicity-free Representations of Algebraic Groups

Donna Testerman, Martin W. Liebeck

Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let G be a connected reductive algebraic group over K. We address the problem of classifying triples (G, H, V ), where H is a proper connected subgroup of G, and V is a finitedimensional ir ...

Nonlinear optical diode effect in a magnetic Weyl semimetal

Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Chunyu Guo, Hao Yang

Diode effects are of great interest for both fundamental physics and modern technologies. Electrical diode effects (nonreciprocal transport) have been observed in Weyl systems. Optical diode effects arising from the Weyl fermions have been theoretically co ...

Almost cyclic regular semisimple elements in irreducible representations of simple algebraic groups

Donna Testerman

Let G be a simple linear algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p ≥ 0 and let φ be a nontrivial p-restricted irreducible representation of G. Let T be a maximal torus of G and s ∈ T . We say that s is Ad-regular if α(s ...

Weyl semimetals such as the TaAs family (TaAs, TaP, NbAs, NbP) host quasiparticle excitations resemblingthe long-sought-after Weyl fermions at special band-crossing points in the band structure denoted as Weylnodes. They are predicted to exhibit a negative ...

Irreducible Subgroups of Simple Algebraic Groups – A Survey

Donna Testerman

Let G be a simple linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic p≥ 0, let H be a proper closed subgroup of G and let V be a nontrivial finite dimensional irreducible rational KG-module. We say that (G,H, V) is an irreducible ...

On irreducible subgroups of simple algebraic groups

Donna Testerman, Claude Marion

Let G be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic p >= 0, let H be a proper closed subgroup of G and let V be a nontrivial irreducible KG-module, which is p-restricted, tensor indecomposable and rational. Assume that ...

Toda frames, harmonic maps and extended Dynkin diagrams

Katharine Felicity Turner

We consider a natural subclass of harmonic maps from a surface into G/T, namely cyclic primitive maps. Here G is any simple real Lie group (not necessarily compact), T is a Cartan subgroup and both are chosen so that there is a Coxeter automorphism on G(C) ...
