On the blockwise modular isomorphism problem

2017

As a generalization of the modular isomorphism problem we study the behavior of defect groups under Morita equivalence of blocks of finite groups over algebraically closed fields of positive characteristic. We prove that the Morita equivalence class of a block B of defect at most 3 determines the defect groups of B up to isomorphism. In characteristic 0 we prove similar results for metacyclic defect groups and 2-blocks of defect 4. In the second part of the paper we investigate the situation for p-solvable groups G. Among other results we show that the group algebra of G itself determines if G has abelian Sylow p-subgroups.

Representation Theorems for Indefinite Quadratic Forms Revisited

2010

The first and second representation theorems for sign-indefinite, not necessarily semi-bounded quadratic forms are revisited. New straightforward proofs of these theorems are given. A number of necessary and sufficient conditions ensuring the second representation theorem to hold is proved. A new simple and explicit example of a self-adjoint operator for which the second representation theorem does not hold is also provided.

Weyl's Theorems and Extensions of Bounded Linear Operators

2012

A bounded operator $T\in L(X)$, $X$ a Banach space, is said to satisfy Weyl's theorem if the set of all spectral points that do not belong to the Weyl spectrum coincides with the set of all isolated points of the spectrum which are eigenvalues and having finite multiplicity. In this article we give sufficient conditions for which Weyl's theorem for an extension $\overline T$ of $T$ (respectively, for $T$) entails that Weyl's theorem holds for $T$ (respectively, for $\overline T$).

Fixpunktmengen von halbeinfachen Automorphismen in halbeinfachen Lie-Algebren

1976

Let g be a semisimple Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. The set of fixed points of a semisimple inner automorphism of g is a regular reductive subalgebra of maximal rank [1], so it is defined by a subsystem of the root system Φ of g relative to a suitable Cartan subalgebra. The main theorem of the article characterizes the corresponding subsystems of Φ. The second part of the article shows how to compute the fixed point algebras of semisimple outer automorphisms of g. A complete list of all fixed point algebras is then easily obtainable. The results are applied to bounded symmetric domains. References

A simple proof for the formula to get symmetrized powers of group representations

1993

A general formula to decompose the p-power of irreducible representations of an arbitrary space group into sum of sets of irreducible representations of such a group, having identical permutational symmetry, is presented. Its proof is based upon a straightforward application of the properties of the generalized projection (shift) operators. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Quantization on the Virasoro group

1990

The quantization of the Virasoro group is carried out by means of a previously established group approach to quantization. We explicitly work out the two-cocycles on the Virasoro group as a preliminary step. In our scheme the carrier space for all the Virasoro representations is made out of polarized functions on the group manifold. It is proved that this space does not contain null vector states, even forc≦1, although it is not irreducible. The full reduction is achieved in a striaghtforward way by just taking a well defined invariant subspace ℋ(c, h), the orbit of the enveloping algebra through the vacuum, which is irreducible for any value ofc andh. ℋ(c, h) is a proper subspace of the sp…

Dynamics of closed ecosystems described by operators

2014

Abstract We adopt the so-called occupation number representation , originally used in quantum mechanics and recently adopted in the description of several classical systems, in the analysis of the dynamics of some models of closed ecosystems. In particular, we discuss two linear models, for which the solution can be found analytically, and a nonlinear system, for which we produce numerical results. We also discuss how a dissipative effect could be effectively implemented in the model.

Varieties of representations of virtual knot groups in SL2(C)

2002

Abstract We study the local structure of the variety of representations of a virtual knot group in SL 2 ( C ) near an abelian representation ρ 0 . To such a representation is attached a complex number ω and there are three cases. If ω and ω −1 are not roots of the Alexander polynomial, there are only abelian representations around ρ 0 . If ω is a root and ω −1 is not, there are only reducible representations. If both ω and ω −1 are roots and certain homological conditions hold, there are irreducible representations.

Elements of General Representation Theory

1982

In Chapter V, classical representation theory was studied. This is the theory of the group-ring KG and the KG-modules, where K is an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. (Many theorems remain valid under the hypothesis that K is algebraically closed and that char K does not divide the order of G). In this case, KG is semisimple and all KG-modules are completely reducible. For many purposes it is therefore sufficient to handle the irreducible representations.
