Generic direct summands of tensor products for simple algebraic groups and quantum groups at roots of unity

Jonathan Gruber

Let G be either a simple linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic l>0 or a quantum group at an l-th root of unity. The category Rep(G) of finite-dimensional G-modules is non-semisimple. In this thesis, we develop new tech ...

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 ...

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) ...

Subgroups Of Simple Algebraic Groups Containing Regular Tori, And Irreducible Representations With Multiplicity 1 Non-Zero Weights

Donna Testerman

Our main goal is to determine, under certain restrictions, the maximal closed connected subgroups of simple linear algebraic groups containing a regular torus. We call a torus regular if its centralizer is abelian. We also obtain some results of independen ...

Stability of Equilibria for the so(4) Free Rigid Body

Tudor Ratiu

The stability for all generic equilibria of the Lie-Poisson dynamics of the so(4) rigid body dynamics is completely determined. It is shown that for the generalized rigid body certain Cartan subalgebras (called of coordinate type) of so(n) are equilibrium ...

Chaplygin systems associated to Cartan decompositions of semi-simple Lie groups

Simon Hochgerner

We relate a Chaplygin type system to a Cartan decomposition of a real semi-simple Lie group. The resulting system is described in terms of the structure theory associated to the Cartan decomposition. It is shown to possess a preserved measure and when inte ...

Nilpotent subalgebras of semisimple Lie algebras

Donna Testerman

Let g be the Lie algebra of a semisimple linear algebraic group. Under mild conditions on the characteristic of the underlying field, one can show that any subalgebra of g consisting of nilpotent elements is contained in some Borel subalgebra. In this Note ...

Irreducibility of disconnected subgroups of exceptional algebraic groups

Soumaïa Nadia Ghandour

This dissertation is concerned with the study of irreducible embeddings of simple algebraic groups of exceptional type. It is motivated by the role of such embeddings in the study of positive dimensional closed subgroups of classical algebraic groups. The ...

Convolution Operators And Homomorphisms Of Locally Compact Groups

Let 1 < p < infinity, let G and H be locally compact groups and let c) be a continuous homomorphism of G into H. We prove, if G is amenable, the existence of a linear contraction of the Banach algebra CVp (G) of the p-convolution operators on G into CVp (H ...

On Haagerup and Kazhdan properties

Yves de Cornulier

In the first chapter, we characterize p-adic linear algebraic groups with the Haagerup Property. We also characterize connected Lie groups having the Haagerup Property viewed as discrete groups, and we provide an example of a finitely presented group not h ...
