In the paper we completely describe characters (central positive-definite functions) of simple locally finite groups that can be represented as inductive limits of (products of) symmetric groups under block diagonal embeddings. Each such group $G$ defines an infinite graph (Bratteli diagram) that encodes the embedding scheme. The group $G$ acts on the space $X$ of infinite paths of the associated Bratteli diagram by changing initial edges of paths. Assuming the finiteness of the set of ergodic measures for the system $(X,G)$, we establish that each indecomposable character $χ:G \rightarrow \mathbb C$ is uniquely defined by the formula $χ(g) = μ_1(Fix(g))^{α_1}...μ_k(Fix(g))^{α_k}$, where $μ_1,...,μ_k$ are $G$-ergodic measures, $Fix(g) = \{x\in X: gx = x\}$, and $α_1,...,α_k\in \{0,1,...,\infty\}$. We illustrate our results on the group of rational permutations of the unit interval.
In this paper we obtain the complete description of all indecomposable characters (central positive-definite functions) of inductive limits of the symmetric groups under block diagonal embedding. As a corollary we obtain the full classification of the isomorphism classes of these inductive limits.
We prove that the inductive AM condition introduced by Britta Späth is true for the simple alternating groups in characteristic 2. To achieve this we give an equivalent of a well known result on blocks of the symmetric groups with the same weight to 2-blocks of double cover of alternating groups.
We present an inductive method for constructing the basic spin representations of the double covers of the symmetric groups over fields of any characteristic.
We reformulate the inductive McKay condition, from Isaacs-Malle-Navarro, and apply the new criterion to simple groups of Lie type, when the prime is the defining characteristic p. Thereby we make use of a recent result of Maslowski. This proves that these simple group satisfy the inductive McKay condition for p. In the non simply-laced types and non-classical types this reproves earlier results by Brunat and Brunat-Himstedt.
The McKay--Navarro conjecture is a refinement of the McKay conjecture that additionally takes the action of some Galois automorphisms into account. We verify the inductive McKay--Navarro condition in the defining characteristic for the finite groups of Lie type with exceptional graph automorphisms, the Suzuki and Ree groups, $\mathsf{B}_n(2)$ ($n \geq 2$), and the groups of Lie type with non-generic Schur multiplier. This completes the verification of the inductive McKay--Navarro condition for the finite groups of Lie type in their defining characteristic.
In a recent paper we claimed that both the group algebra of a finite Coxeter group $W$ as well as the Orlik-Solomon algebra of $W$ can be decomposed into a sum of induced one-dimensional representations of centralizers, one for each conjugacy class of elements of $W$, and gave a uniform proof of this claim for symmetric groups. In this note we outline an inductive approach to our conjecture. As an application of this method, we prove the inductive version of the conjecture for finite Coxeter groups of rank up to 2.
As a step to establish the McKay conjecture on character degrees of finite groups, we verify the inductive McKay condition introduced by Isaacs-Malle-Navarro for simple groups of Lie type $A_{n-1}$, split or twisted. Key to the proofs is the study of certain characters of SL$_n(q)$ and SU$_n(q)$ related to generalized Gelfand-Graev representations. As a by-product we can show that a Jordan decomposition for the characters of the latter groups is equivariant under outer automorphisms. Many ideas seem applicable to other Lie types.
The Radon transform and its dual are central objects in geometric analysis on Riemannian symmetric spaces of the noncompact type. In this article we study algebraic versions of those transforms on inductive limits of symmetric spaces. In particular, we show that normalized versions exists on some spaces of regular functions on the limit. We give a formula for the normalized transform using integral kernels and relate them to limits of double fibration transforms on spheres.
We will introduce the notion of inductive limits of compact quantum groups as $W^*$-bialgebras equipped with some additional structures. We also formulate their unitary representation theories. Those give a more explicit representation-theoretic meaning to our previous study of quantized characters associated with a given inductive system of compact quantum groups. As a byproduct, we will give an explicit representation-theoretic interpretation to some transformations that play an important role in the analysis of $q$-central probability measures on the paths in the Gelfand-Tsetlin graph.
We study the character theory of inductive limits of $q$-deformed classical compact groups. In particular, we clarify the relationship between the representation theory of Drinfeld-Jimbo quantized universal enveloping algebras and our previous work on the quantized characters. We also apply the character theory to construct Markov semigroups on unitary duals of $SO_q(2N+1)$, $Sp_q(N)$, and their inductive limits.
We give a new (inductive) proof of the classical Frobenius--Young correspondence between irreducible complex representations of the symmetric group and Young diagrams, using the new approach, suggested in \cite{OV, VO}, to determining this correspondence. We also give linear relations between Kostka numbers that follow from the decomposition of the restrictions of induced representations to the previous symmetric subgroup. We consider a realization of representations induced from Young subgroups in polylinear forms and describe its relation to Specht modules.
For a prime $\ell$, the McKay conjecture suggests a bijection between the set of irreducible characters of a finite group with $\ell'$-degree and the corresponding set for the normalizer of a Sylow $\ell$- subgroup. Navarro's refinement suggests that the values of the characters on either side of this bijection should also be related, proposing that the bijection commutes with certain Galois automorphisms. Recently, Navarro--Spaeth--Vallejo have reduced the McKay--Navarro conjecture to certain "inductive" conditions on finite simple groups. We prove that these inductive McKay--Navarro (also c…
We start with definitions of the general notions of the theory of $\Bbb Z_{2}$-graded algebras. Then we consider theory of inductive families of $\Bbb Z_{2}$-graded semisimple finite-dimensional algebras and its representations in the spirit of approach of the papers \cite{VO,OV} to representation theory of symmetric groups. The main example is the classical - theory of the projective representations of symmetric groups.
We establish the inductive blockwise Alperin weight condition for simple groups of Lie type $\mathsf C$ and the bad prime $2$. As a main step, we derive a labelling set for the irreducible $2$-Brauer characters of the finite symplectic groups Sp$_{2n}(q)$ (with odd $q$), together with the action of automorphisms. As a further important ingredient we prove a Jordan decomposition for weights.
We verify the inductive McKay condition for simple groups of Lie type C, namely finite projective symplectic groups. This contributes to the program of a complete proof of the McKay conjecture for all finite groups via the reduction theorem of Isaacs-Malle-Navarro and the classification of finite simple groups. In an important step we use a new counting argument to determine the stabilizers of irreducible characters of a finite symplectic group in its outer automorphism group. This is completed by analogous results on characters of normalizers of Sylow d-tori in those groups.
We work towards a version of generalized Harish-Chandra theory compatible with Clifford theory and with the action of automorphisms on irreducible characters. This provides a fundamental tool to verify the inductive conditions for the so-called local-global conjectures in representation theory of finite groups in the crucial case of groups of Lie type in non-defining characteristic. In particular, as shown by the author in an earier paper, this as a strong impact on the verification of the inductive condition for Dade's Conjecture. As a by-product, we also show how to extend the parametrizatio…

A characterization of the maximal abelian sub-algebras of matrix algebras that are normalized by the canonical representation of a finite Heisenberg group is given. Examples are constructed using a classification result for finite Heisenberg groups.
The Alperin-McKay conjecture relates height zero characters of an $\ell$-block with the ones of its Brauer correspondent. This conjecture has been reduced to the so-called inductive Alperin-McKay conditions about quasi-simple groups by the third author. Those conditions are still open for groups of Lie type. The present paper describes characters of height zero in $\ell$-blocks of groups of Lie type over a field with $q$ elements when $\ell$ divides $q-1$. We also give information about $\ell$-blocks and Brauer correspondents. As an application we show that quasi-simple groups of type $C$ over…
We verify the inductive McKay--Navarro condition for the Suzuki and Ree groups for all primes as well as for $p=3$ and the groups $PSL_3(q)$ with $q \equiv 4,7$ mod $9$, $PSU_3(q) $ with $q \equiv 2,5$ mod $9$, and $G_2(q)$ with $q=2,4,5,7$ mod $9$. On the way, we show that there exists a Galois-equivariant Jordan decomposition for the irreducible characters of the Suzuki and Ree groups.
We show that the class of inductive limits of the representations of finite symmetric groups with simple spectrum coinsides with the class of Markov representations of the infinite symmetric group associated with Markov measures on the space of infinite Young tableaux. We also show that the representations of infinite symmetric group induced from identity representation of two-block Young subgroup are Markov representations and find explicit formulas for transition probabilities of corresponding Markov measure on the Young diagrmas. Induced two-row representations of finite symmetric group are…
The new approach to the theory of complex representrations of the finite symmetric groups which based on the notions of Coxeter generators., Gelfand-Zetlin algebras, Hecke algebra, Young-Jucys-Murphi generators and which hardly used inductive structure - is systematically developed. The appearence of Young diagrams, tables is naturally explained - the set of content vectors of all Young tables is the spectra of Gel'fand-Zetlin algebra. The first steps of the theory (the list of the irrediucible representatinos, branching rule, Young orthopgonal form, Murnagan-Nakayama rule etc.)are established…
The groups mentioned in the title are certain matrix groups of infinite size over a finite field $\mathbb F_q$. They are built from finite classical groups and at the same time they are similar to reductive $p$-adic Lie groups. In the present paper, we initiate the study of invariant measures for the coadjoint action of these infinite-dimensional groups. We examine first the group $\mathbb{GLB}$, a topological completion of the inductive limit group $\varinjlim GL(n, \mathbb F_q)$. As was shown by Gorin, Kerov, and Vershik [arXiv:1209.4945], the traceable factor representations of $\mathbb{GLB…
