Degrees of Characters and Values on Prime Order Elements

2008

Two irreducible characters of a finite group with the same value on prime elements have the same degree.

On the representation theory of quantum Heisenberg group and algebra

1994

We show that the quantum Heisenberg groupH q (1) and its *-Hopf algebra structure can be obtained by means of contraction from quantumSU q (2) group. Its dual Hopf algebra is the quantum Heisenberg algebraU q (h(1)). We derive left and right regular representations forU q (h(1)) as acting on its dualH q (1). Imposing conditions on the right representation, the left representation is reduced to an irreducible holomorphic representation with an associated quantum coherent state. Realized in the Bargmann-Hilbert space of analytic functions the unitarity of regular representation is also shown. By duality, left and right regular representations for quantum Heisenberg group with the quantum Heis…

Derivations of quasi *-algebras

2004

The spatiality of derivations of quasi*-algebras is investigated by means of representation theory. Moreover, in view of physical applications, the spatiality of the limit of a family of spatial derivations is considered.

Characters and Blocks of Finite Groups

1998

This is a clear, accessible and up-to-date exposition of modular representation theory of finite groups from a character-theoretic viewpoint. After a short review of the necessary background material, the early chapters introduce Brauer characters and blocks and develop their basic properties. The next three chapters study and prove Brauer's first, second and third main theorems in turn. These results are then applied to prove a major application of finite groups, the Glauberman Z*-theorem. Later chapters examine Brauer characters in more detail. The relationship between blocks and normal subgroups is also explored and the modular characters and blocks in p-solvable groups are discussed. Fi…

Large orbits ofp-groups on characters and applications to character degrees

2005

We prove that if ap-groupA acts on a solvablep′-groupG then there is a “large” orbit on the ordinary complex irreducible characters ofG. As a consequence of this theorem we obtain results that relate ordinary and Brauer character degrees.

Faithful representations of left C*-modules

2010

The existence of a faithful modular representation of a left module $$ \mathfrak{X} $$ over a C*-algebra $$ \mathfrak{A}_\# $$ possessing sufficiently many traces is proved.

Star representations of E(2)

1990

We give a complete and explicit realization of the unitary irreducible representations of the universal covering group G of E(2), the Euclidean group in two dimensions, by deformation of the algebra of functions on the dual g* of the Lie algebra of G. We define an adapted Fourier transform for G which gives a natural description of the harmonic analysis of G.
