The induced representation ${\rm Ind}_H^GS$ of a locally compact group $G$ is the unitary representation of the group $G$ associated with unitary representation $S:H\rightarrow U(V)$ of a subgroup $H$ of the group $G$. Our aim is to develop the concept of induced representations for infinite-dimensional groups. The induced representations for infinite-dimensional groups in not unique, as in the case of a locally compact groups. It depends on two completions $\tilde H$ and $\tilde G$ of the subgroup $H$ and the group $G$, on an extension $\tilde S:\tilde H\rightarrow U(V)$ of the representation $S:H\rightarrow U(V)$ and on a choice of the $G$-quasi-invariant measure $μ$ on an appropriate completion $\tilde X=\tilde H\backslash \tilde G$ of the space $H\backslash G$. As the illustration we consider the "nilpotent" group $B_0^{\mathbb Z}$ of infinite in both directions upper triangular matrices and the induced representation corresponding to the so-called generic
The present paper links the representation theory of Lie groupoids and infinite-dimensional Lie groups. We show that smooth representations of Lie groupoids give rise to smooth representations of associated Lie groups. The groups envisaged here are the bisection group and a group of groupoid self maps. Then representations of the Lie groupoids give rise to representations of the infinite-dimensional Lie groups on spaces of (compactly supported) bundle sections. Endowing the spaces of bundle sections with a fine Whitney type topology, the fine very strong topology, we even obtain continuous and…
We classify irreducible unitary representations of the group of all infinite matrices over a $p$-adic field ($p\ne 2$) with integer elements equipped with a natural topology. Any irreducible representation passes through a group $GL$ of infinite matrices over a residue ring modulo $p^k$. Irreducible representations of the latter group are induced from finite-dimensional representations of certain open subgroups.
We introduce and study the so-called serpentine representations of the infinite symmetric group $\sinf$, which turn out to be closely related to the basic representation of the affine Lie algebra $\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}_2}$ and representations of the Virasoro algebra. This is a new version of the manuscript of the same authors "On a relation between the basic representation of the affine Lie algebra $\widehat\sl$ and a Schur--Weyl representation of the infinite symmetric group" (arXiv:1403.1558)
In this work we discuss some appearances of semi-infinite combinatorics in representation theory. We propose a semi-infinite moment graph theory and we motivate it by considering the (not yet rigorously defined) geometric side of the story. We show that it is possible to compute stalks of the local intersection cohomology of the semi-infinite flag variety, and hence of spaces of quasi maps, by performing an algorithm due to Braden and MacPherson.
Cross-projective representations of pairs of anticommutative algebras, alloys and finite-dimensional irreducible representations of some infinite-dimensional Lie algebras
We begin the study of the representation theory of the infinite Temperley-Lieb algebra. We fully classify its finite dimensional representations, then introduce infinite link state representations and classify when they are irreducible or indecomposable. We also define a construction of projective indecomposable representations for $TL_{n}$ that generalizes to give extensions of $TL_{\infty}$ representations. Finally we define a generalization of the spin chain representation and conjecture a generalization of Schur-Weyl duality.
We characterize pairs (Q,d) consisting of a quiver Q and a dimension vector d, such that over a given algebraically closed field k there are infinitely many representations of Q of dimension vector d. We also present an application of this result to the study of algebras with finitely many orbits with respect to the action of (the double product) of the group of units.
In this paper we treat the $τ$-tilting finiteness of biserial (respectively special biserial) algebras over algebraically closed (respectively arbitrary) fields. Inside these families, to compare the notions of representation-finiteness and $τ$-tilting finiteness, we reduce the problem to the $τ$-tilting finiteness of minimal representation-infinite (special) biserial algebras. Building upon the classification of minimal representation-infinite algebras, we fully determine which minimal representation-infinite (special) biserial algebras are $τ$-tilting finite and which ones are not. To do so,…
We introduce an infinite-dimensional affine group and construct its irreducible unitary representation. Our approach follows the one used by Vershik, Gelfand and Graev for the diffeomorphism group, but with modifications made necessary by the fact that the group does not act on the phase space. However it is possible to define its action on some classes of functions.
Draisma recently proved that polynomial representations of $\mathbf{GL}_{\infty}$ are topologically noetherian. We generalize this result to algebraic representations of infinite rank classical groups.
We determine for which Coxeter types the associated small quotient of the $2$-category of Soergel bimodules is finitary and, for such a small quotient, classify the simple transitive $2$-representations (sometimes under the additional assumption of gradability). We also describe the underlying categories of the simple transitive $2$-representations. For the small quotients of general Coxeter types, we give a description for the cell $2$-representations.
Using linear algebraic methods we show that every (possibly infinite-dimensional) representation of a quiver with underlying graph $A_{\infty, \infty}$ is Krull-Schmidt, as long as the arrows in the quiver eventually point outward.
On a relation between the basic representation of the affine Lie algebra $\widehat\sl$ and a Schur--Weyl representation of the infinite symmetric group
We introduce an infinite-dimensional $p$-adic affine group and construct its irreducible unitary representation. Our approach follows the one used by Vershik, Gelfand and Graev for the diffeomorphism group, but with modifications made necessary by the fact that the group does not act on the phase space. However it is possible to define its action on some classes of functions.
In this note the smooth (i.e. with open stabilizers) linear and {\sl semilinear} representations of certain permutation groups (such as infinite symmetric group or automorphism group of an infinite-dimensional vector space over a finite field) are studied. Many results here are well-known to the experts, at least in the case of {\sl linear representations} of symmetric group. The presented results suggest, in particular, that an analogue of Hilbert's Theorem 90 should hold: in the case of faithful action of the group on the base field the irreducible smooth semilinear representations are one-d…
We discuss certain effective improvements on superrigidity for $SL_n(\mathbb{Z})$ for finite $n>2$. Using these ideas we then use superrigidity to prove a representation stability theorem about pointwise finite dimensional $VIC(\mathbb{Z})$-modules, which itself can be viewed as a superrigidity theorem for $VIC(\mathbb{Z})$ and $GL_\infty(\mathbb{Z})$
Let $G=SL(2,5)$ be the special linear group of $2 \times 2$-matrices with coefficients in the field with $5$ elements. We show that the principal block over a splitting field $K$ of characteristic two of the group algebra $KG$ has a $3$-cluster tilting module. This gives the first example of a representation-infinite block of a group algebra having a cluster tilting module and answers a question by Erdmann and Holm.
We extend the definition of conical representations for Riemannian symmetric spaces to a certain class of infinite-dimensional Riemannian symmetric spaces. Using an infinite-dimensional version of Weyl's Unitary Trick, there is a correspondence between smooth representations of infinite-dimensional noncompact-type Riemannian symmetric spaces and smooth representations of infinite-dimensional compact-type symmetric spaces. We classify all smooth conical representations which are unitary on the compact-type side. Finally, a new class of non-smooth unitary conical representations appears on the c…
We study the category $\mathcal{A}$ of smooth semilinear representations of the infinite symmetric group over the field of rational functions in infinitely many variables. We establish a number of results about the structure of $\mathcal{A}$, e.g., classification of injective objects, finiteness of injective dimension, computation of the Grothendieck group, and so on. We also prove that $\mathcal{A}$ is (essentially) equivalent to a simpler linear algebraic category $\mathcal{B}$, which makes many properties of $\mathcal{A}$ transparent.
In this note we describe the recent progress in the classification of bounded and semibounded representations of infinite dimensional Lie groups. We start with a discussion of the semiboundedness condition and how the new concept of a smoothing operator can be used to construct $C^*$-algebras (so called host algebras) whose representations are in one-to-one correspondence with certain semibounded representations of an infinite dimensional Lie group $G$. This makes the full power of $C^*$-theory available in this context. Then we discuss the classification of bounded representations of several …
Let $G_n$ denote either the group $Sp(2n, F)$ or $SO(2n+1, F)$ over a non-archimedean local field $F$. We determine the composition series of representations of $G_n$ induced from cuspidal and ladder representations such that the minimal exponent in the cuspidal support of the ladder representation is greater than or equal to $\frac{1}{2}$.
We study the infinite wedge representation and show how it is related to the universal extension of $g[t,t^{-1}]$ the loop algebra of a complex semi-simple Lie algebra $g$. We also give an elementary proof of the boson-fermion correspondence. Our approach to proving this result is based on a combinatorial construction with partitions combined with an application of the Murnaghan-Nakayama rule.
We have determined composition series of a class of induced representations appearing in Moeglin Tadić classification of discrete series. The result is further used to determine composition series of certain representations induced from Langlands quotients. This should provide more information on decomposing standard representations as well as Jacquet modules of discrete series, which has application in automorphic forms.
The Wigner-Eckart theorem is a well known result for tensor operators of SU(2) and, more generally, any compact Lie group. This paper generalises it to arbitrary Lie groups, possibly non-compact. The result relies on knowledge of recoupling theory between finite-dimensional and arbitrary admissible representations, which may be infinite-dimensional; the particular case of the Lorentz group will be studied in detail. As an application, the Wigner-Eckart theorem will be used to construct an analogue of the Jordan-Schwinger representation, previously known only for finite-dimensional representati…
