Abstract

It is well known that for a finite group \(G\), the number of elements in ${\rm Irr}(G)$ the set of irreducible representations up to isomorphism is the same as the number of elements in ${\rm Conj}(G)$ the set of conjugacy classes in $G$ although there is no natural bijection between these two sets. For $G={\rm GL}_2(\mathbb{F}_q)$, where $\mathbb{F}_q$ is the finite field with $q$ elements, we give a bijection between ${\rm Irr}(G)$ and ${\rm Conj}(G)$, which behaves well with the tensor product of irreducible representations on one side and the product of conjugacy classes on the other. In particular, we relate the dimension of the trilinear forms with the multiplicity of the identity element in the triple product of the corresponding conjugacy classes.

Totally elliptic surface group representations

A surface group representation into a Lie group is called totally elliptic if every simple closed curve on the surface is mapped to an elliptic element of the target group. In this note, we characterize all totally elliptic surface group representations into $\mathrm{PSL}_2\mathbb{R}$ and $\mathrm{PSL}_2\mathbb{C}$ by showing that they are either representations into a compact subgroup or Deroin--Tholozan representations.

Stable Brauer--Thrall II$'$ conjecture for finite-dimensional Jacobian algebras

We prove that finite-dimensional Jacobian algebras associated with non-degenerate quivers with potentials satisfy the stable Brauer--Thrall II$'$ conjecture. In particular, this implies that the brick Brauer--Thrall II$'$ conjecture (also known as the $τ$-Brauer--Thrall II$'$ conjecture) holds for finite-dimensional Jacobian algebras.

Wide Regular Subalgebras of Symmetrizable Kac-Moody Algebras and an Extension of Schur's Lemma

The behavior of representations under restriction is a central theme in Lie theory. We study wide regular subalgebras of symmetrizable Kac--Moody algebras, extending work of Douglas and Repka on semisimple Lie algebras. A subalgebra is \emph{wide} if every irreducible integrable highest weight module remains indecomposable upon restriction. Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a symmetrizable Kac--Moody algebra with Cartan subalgebra $\mathfrak{h}$, root system $Φ$, simple roots $Π$, and root space decomposition $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{h}\oplus\bigoplus_{α\inΦ}\mathfrak{g}_α$. Denote by $Φ_{\operatorname{re}}$ the set of real roots. To a regular subalgebra $\mathfrak{s}$ normalized by $\mathfrak{h}$, we associate a subset $T\subseteq Φ$ by declaring $α\in T$ if $\mathfrak{s}\cap \mathfrak{g}_α\ne \{0\}$. One of our main results is an extension of Schur's lemma: if $\mathfrak{h}\subseteq \mathfrak{s}$ and the real closure of $(T\cup(-T))\cap Φ_{\operatorname{re}}$ contains $Π$, then $(\operatorname{End} V)^{\mathfrak{s}}=\mathbb{C}\operatorname{Id}_V$ for every irreducible integrable highest weight module $V$. As a consequence, this real-root closure condition yields a sufficient condition for wideness. In the affine case, we establish a necessary condition for wideness: if $\mathfrak{s}$ is wide, then the closure of $T\cup(-T)$ in $Φ$ is all of $Φ$, and this implication holds without assuming that $\mathfrak{h}\subseteq \mathfrak{s}$. A key ingredient is a structural result showing that closed subsets of affine root systems are closed under arbitrary finite root sums that remain roots.
