Deligne–Lusztig Theory
In mathematics, Deligne–Lusztig theory is a way of constructing linear representations of finite groups of Lie type using ℓ-adic cohomology with compact support, introduced by . used these representations to find all representations of all finite simple groups of Lie type. Motivation Suppose that ''G'' is a reductive group defined over a finite field, with Frobenius map ''F''. Ian G. Macdonald conjectured that there should be a map from ''general position'' characters of ''F''-stable maximal tori to irreducible representations of G^F (the fixed points of ''F''). For general linear groups this was already known by the work of . This was the main result proved by Pierre Deligne and George Lusztig; they found a virtual representation for all characters of an ''F''-stable maximal torus, which is irreducible (up to sign) when the character is in general position. When the maximal torus is split, these representations were well known and are given by parabolic induction of cha ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Groups Of Lie Type
In mathematics, specifically in group theory, the phrase ''group of Lie type'' usually refers to finite groups that are closely related to the group of rational points of a reductive linear algebraic group with values in a finite field. The phrase ''group of Lie type'' does not have a widely accepted precise definition, but the important collection of finite simple groups of Lie type does have a precise definition, and they make up most of the groups in the classification of finite simple groups. The name "groups of Lie type" is due to the close relationship with the (infinite) Lie groups, since a compact Lie group may be viewed as the rational points of a reductive linear algebraic group over the field of real numbers. and are standard references for groups of Lie type. Classical groups An initial approach to this question was the definition and detailed study of the so-called ''classical groups'' over finite and other fields by . These groups were studied by L. E.

Discrete Series
In mathematics, a discrete series representation is an irreducible unitary representation of a locally compact topological group ''G'' that is a subrepresentation of the left regular representation of ''G'' on L²(''G''). In the Plancherel measure, such representations have positive measure. The name comes from the fact that they are exactly the representations that occur discretely in the decomposition of the regular representation. Properties If ''G'' is unimodular, an irreducible unitary representation ρ of ''G'' is in the discrete series if and only if one (and hence all) matrix coefficient :\langle \rho(g)\cdot v, w \rangle \, with ''v'', ''w'' non-zero vectors is square-integrable on ''G'', with respect to Haar measure. When ''G'' is unimodular, the discrete series representation has a formal dimension ''d'', with the property that :d\int \langle \rho(g)\cdot v, w \rangle \overlinedg =\langle v, x \rangle\overline for ''v'', ''w'', ''x'', ''y'' in the representation. ...

Canonical Map
In mathematics, a canonical map, also called a natural map, is a map or morphism between objects that arises naturally from the definition or the construction of the objects. Often, it is a map which preserves the widest amount of structure. A choice of a canonical map sometimes depends on a convention (e.g., a sign convention). A closely related notion is a structure map or structure morphism; the map or morphism that comes with the given structure on the object. These are also sometimes called canonical maps. A canonical isomorphism is a canonical map that is also an isomorphism (i.e., invertible). In some contexts, it might be necessary to address an issue of ''choices'' of canonical maps or canonical isomorphisms; for a typical example, see prestack. For a discussion of the problem of defining a canonical map see Kevin Buzzard's talk at the 2022 Grothendieck conference. Examples *If ''N'' is a normal subgroup of a group ''G'', then there is a canonical surjective group homo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Simple Root (root System)
In mathematics, a root system is a configuration of vectors in a Euclidean space satisfying certain geometrical properties. The concept is fundamental in the theory of Lie groups and Lie algebras, especially the classification and representation theory of semisimple Lie algebras. Since Lie groups (and some analogues such as algebraic groups) and Lie algebras have become important in many parts of mathematics during the twentieth century, the apparently special nature of root systems belies the number of areas in which they are applied. Further, the classification scheme for root systems, by Dynkin diagrams, occurs in parts of mathematics with no overt connection to Lie theory (such as singularity theory). Finally, root systems are important for their own sake, as in spectral graph theory. Definitions and examples As a first example, consider the six vectors in 2-dimensional Euclidean space, R2, as shown in the image at the right; call them roots. These vectors span the whole s ...

Centralizer
In mathematics, especially group theory, the centralizer (also called commutant) of a subset ''S'' in a group ''G'' is the set of elements \mathrm_G(S) of ''G'' such that each member g \in \mathrm_G(S) commutes with each element of ''S'', or equivalently, such that conjugation by g leaves each element of ''S'' fixed. The normalizer of ''S'' in ''G'' is the set of elements \mathrm_G(S) of ''G'' that satisfy the weaker condition of leaving the set S \subseteq G fixed under conjugation. The centralizer and normalizer of ''S'' are subgroups of ''G''. Many techniques in group theory are based on studying the centralizers and normalizers of suitable subsets ''S''. Suitably formulated, the definitions also apply to semigroups. In ring theory, the centralizer of a subset of a ring is defined with respect to the semigroup (multiplication) operation of the ring. The centralizer of a subset of a ring ''R'' is a subring of ''R''. This article also deals with centralizers and normaliz ...

Weyl Group
In mathematics, in particular the theory of Lie algebras, the Weyl group (named after Hermann Weyl) of a root system Φ is a subgroup of the isometry group of that root system. Specifically, it is the subgroup which is generated by reflections through the hyperplanes orthogonal to the roots, and as such is a finite reflection group. In fact it turns out that ''most'' finite reflection groups are Weyl groups. Abstractly, Weyl groups are finite Coxeter groups, and are important examples of these. The Weyl group of a semisimple Lie group, a semisimple Lie algebra, a semisimple linear algebraic group, etc. is the Weyl group of the root system of that group or algebra. Definition and examples Let \Phi be a root system in a Euclidean space V. For each root \alpha\in\Phi, let s_\alpha denote the reflection about the hyperplane perpendicular to \alpha, which is given explicitly as :s_\alpha(v)=v-2\frac\alpha, where (\cdot,\cdot) is the inner product on V. The Weyl group W of \Phi is ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Linear Algebraic Group
In mathematics, a linear algebraic group is a subgroup of the group of invertible n\times n matrices (under matrix multiplication) that is defined by polynomial equations. An example is the orthogonal group, defined by the relation M^TM = I_n where M^T is the transpose of M. Many Lie groups can be viewed as linear algebraic groups over the field of real or complex numbers. (For example, every compact Lie group can be regarded as a linear algebraic group over R (necessarily R-anisotropic and reductive), as can many noncompact groups such as the simple Lie group SL(''n'',R).) The simple Lie groups were classified by Wilhelm Killing and Élie Cartan in the 1880s and 1890s. At that time, no special use was made of the fact that the group structure can be defined by polynomials, that is, that these are algebraic groups. The founders of the theory of algebraic groups include Maurer, Chevalley, and . In the 1950s, Armand Borel constructed much of the theory of algebraic groups as it ...

Zuckerman Functor
In mathematics, a Zuckerman functor is used to construct representations of real reductive Lie groups from representations of Levi subgroups. They were introduced by Gregg Zuckerman (1978). The Bernstein functor is closely related. Notation and terminology *''G'' is a connected reductive real affine algebraic group (for simplicity; the theory works for more general groups), and ''g'' is the Lie algebra of ''G''. ''K'' is a maximal compact subgroup of ''G''. *''L'' is a Levi subgroup In Lie theory and representation theory, the Levi decomposition, conjectured by Wilhelm Killing and Élie Cartan and proved by , states that any finite-dimensional real Lie algebra ''g'' is the semidirect product of a solvable ideal and a semi ... of ''G'', the centralizer of a compact connected abelian subgroup, and *''l'' is the Lie algebra of ''L''. *A representation of ''K'' is called K-finite if every vector is contained in a finite-dimensional representation of ''K''.

Borel–Weil–Bott Theorem
In mathematics, the Borel–Weil–Bott theorem is a basic result in the representation theory of Lie groups, showing how a family of representations can be obtained from holomorphic sections of certain complex vector bundles, and, more generally, from higher sheaf cohomology groups associated to such bundles. It is built on the earlier Borel–Weil theorem of Armand Borel and André Weil, dealing just with the space of sections (the zeroth cohomology group), the extension to higher cohomology groups being provided by Raoul Bott. One can equivalently, through Serre's GAGA, view this as a result in complex algebraic geometry in the Zariski topology. Formulation Let be a semisimple Lie group or algebraic group over \mathbb C, and fix a maximal torus along with a Borel subgroup which contains . Let be an integral weight of ; defines in a natural way a one-dimensional representation of , by pulling back the representation on , where is the unipotent radical of . Since we can th ...

Hermann Weyl
Hermann Klaus Hugo Weyl, (; 9 November 1885 – 8 December 1955) was a German mathematician, theoretical physicist and philosopher. Although much of his working life was spent in Zürich, Switzerland, and then Princeton, New Jersey, he is associated with the University of Göttingen tradition of mathematics, represented by Carl Friedrich Gauss, David Hilbert and Hermann Minkowski. His research has had major significance for theoretical physics as well as purely mathematical disciplines such as number theory. He was one of the most influential mathematicians of the twentieth century, and an important member of the Institute for Advanced Study during its early years. Weyl contributed to an exceptionally wide range of mathematical fields, including works on space, time, matter, philosophy, logic, symmetry and the history of mathematics. He was one of the first to conceive of combining general relativity with the laws of electromagnetism. Freeman Dyson wrote that Weyl alone bore ...
