In this paper we obtain various results about the geometry of nilpotent orbits. In particular, we obtain a better understanding of the Kostant-Sekiguchi correspondence and Kronheimer's instanton flow. We utilize the moment map of Ness and the SL(2)-orbit theorem from Hodge theory. The results of this paper are used in the proof of the Barbarsch-Vogan conjecture in math.RT/0005305 (Ann. of Math. (2) 151 (2000), no. 3, 1071-1118).
In the present paper we develop a framework in which questions of quantum ergodicity for operators acting on sections of hermitian vector bundles over Riemannian manifolds can be studied. We are particularly interested in the case of locally symmetric spaces. For locally symmetric spaces, we extend the recent construction of Silberman and Venkatesh (math.RT/0407413) of representation theoretic lifts to vector bundles.
Let $Q$ be an algebraic group and $V$ a $Q$-module. The index of $V$ is the minimal codimension of the $Q$-orbits in the dual space $V^*$. There is a general inequality, due to Vinberg, relating the index of $V$ and the index of $Q_v$-module $V/q.v$ for any $v\in V$. In this article, we study conditions that guarantee us the equality. It was recently proved by Charbonnel (Bull. Soc. Math. France. v.132, 2004) that such an equality holds for the adjoint representation of a semisimple group. Another proof for the classical series was given by the second author, see math.RT/0407065. One of our goals, which is almost achieved, is to understand what is going on in the case of isotropy representations of symmetric spaces.
This paper is a following to math.RT/0410454. For a finite group of Lie type we study the endomorphisms, commuting with the group action, of a Deligne-Lusztig variety associated to a regular element of the Weyl group. We state some general conjectures, in particular that the endomorphism algebra induced on the cohomology is a cyclotomic Hecke algebra, and prove them in some cases. On the way we also prove results on centralizers in braid groups.
H. Hertz called any manifold M with a given nonintegrable distribution {\it nonholonomic}. Vershik and Gershkovich stated and R. Montgomery proved that the space of germs of any nonholonomic distribution on M with an open and dense orbit of the diffeomorphism group is either (1) of codimension one or (2) an Engel distribution. No analog of this statement for supermanifolds is formulated yet, we only have some examples: our list (an analog of E.Cartan's classification) of simple Lie superalgebras of vector fields with polynomial coefficients and a particular (Weisfeiler) grading contains 16 series similar to contact ones and 11 exceptional algebras preserving nonholonomic structures. Here we compute the cohomology corresponding to the analog of the Riemann tensor for the SUPERmanifolds corresponding to the 15 exceptional simple vectorial Lie superalgebras, 11 of which are nonholonomic. The cohomology for analogs of the Riemann tensor for the manifolds with an exceptional Engel manifolds are computed in math.RT/0202213.
We consider the category of modules over the affine Kac-Moody algebra g^ of critical level with regular central character. In our previous paper math.RT/0508382 we conjectured that this category is equivalent to the category of Hecke eigen-D-modules on the affine Grassmannian G((t))/G[[t]]. This conjecture was motivated by our proposal for a local geometric Langlands correspondence. In this paper we prove this conjecture for the corresponding I^0 equivariant categories, where I^0 is the radical of the Iwahori subgroup of G((t)). Our result may be viewed as an affine analogue of the equivalence of categories of g-modules and D-modules on the flag variety G/B, due to Beilinson-Bernstein and Brylinski-Kashiwara.
If A is a finite dimensional nilpotent associative algebra over a finite field k, the set G=1+A of all formal expressions of the form 1+a, where a is an element of A, has a natural group structure, given by (1+a)(1+b)=1+(a+b+ab). A finite group arising in this way is called an algebra group. One can also consider G as a unipotent algebraic group over k. We study representations of G from the point of view of ``geometric character theory'' for algebraic groups over finite fields (cf. G. Lusztig, ``Character sheaves and generalizations'', math.RT/0309134). The main result of this paper is a construction of canonical injective ``base change maps'' between - the set of isomorphism classes of complex irreducible representations of G', and - the set of isomorphism classes of complex irreducible representations of G'', which commute with the natural action of the Galois group Gal(k''/k), where k' is a finite extension of k and k'' is a finite extension of k', and G', G'' are the finite algebra groups obtained from G by extension of scalars.

In math.RT/0205144 we observed that, on the level of derived categories, representations of the Lie algebra of a semisimple algebraic group over a field of finite characteristic with a given (generalized) regular central character can be identified with coherent sheaves on the formal neighborhood of the corresponding (generalized) Springer fiber. In the present paper we treat singular central characters. The basic step is the Beilinson-Bernstein localization of modules with a fixed (generalized) central character as sheaves on the partial flag variety corresponding to the singularity of the character. These sheaves are modules over a sheaf of algebras which is a version of twisted crystalline differential operators, but is actually larger. We discuss translation functors and intertwining functors. The latter generate an action of the affine braid group on the derived category of modules with a regular (generalized) central character, which intertwines different localization functors. We also describe the standard duality on Lie algebra modules in terms of D-modules and coherent sheaves.

This dissertation addresses several current problems in Representation Theory using crystal bases. It incorporates the results of arXiv:math.QA/0408113 and arXiv:math.RT/0603547, as well as previously unpublished results.
This paper is a subsequent paper of math.RT/0607673. Here we consider the irreducible components of Springer fibres (or orbital varieties) for two-column case in GL}_n. We describe the intersection of two irreducible components, and specially give the necessary and sufficient condition for this intersection to be of codimension one. Since an orbital variety in two-column case is a finite union of the Borel orbits, we solve the initial question by determining orbits of codimension one in the closure of a given orbit. We show that they are parameterized by a specific set of involutions called descendants, already introduced by the first author in a previous work. Applying this result we show that the intersections of two components of codimension one are irreducible and provide the combinatorial description in terms of Young tableaux of the pairs of such components.
We study a 2-parametric family of probability measures on the space of countable point configurations on the punctured real line (the points of the random configuration are concentrated near zero). These measures (or, equivalently, point processes) have been introduced in Part II (A. Borodin, math.RT/9804087) in connection with the problem of harmonic analysis on the infinite symmetric group. The main result of the present paper is a determinantal formula for the correlation functions. The formula involves a kernel called the matrix Whittaker kernel. Each of its two diagonal blocks governs the projection of the process on one of the two half-lines; the corresponding kernel on the half-line was studied in Part III (A. Borodin and G. Olshanski, math/RT/9804088). While the diagonal blocks of the matrix Whitaker kernel are symmetric, the whole kernel turns out to be $J$-symmetric, i.e., symmetric with respect to a natural indefinite inner product. We also discuss a rather surprising connection of our processes with the recent work by B. Eynard and M. L. Mehta (cond-mat/9710230) on correlations of eigenvalues of coupled random matrices.
Let V be a finite dimensional complex superspace and G a simple (or a ``close'' to simple) Lie superalgebra of matrix type, i.e., a Lie subsuperalgebra in GL(V). Under the classical invariant theory for G we mean the description of G-invariant elements of the tensor algebra of V. In math.RT/9810113 the invariants are described up to polarization operators. Here we give a complete description of the generators in the algebra of invariants and describe the relations between the invariants of the scalar product type.
We consider the asymptotics of the Plancherel measures on partitions of $n$ as $n$ goes to infinity. We prove that the local structure of a Plancherel typical partition (which we identify with a Young diagram) in the middle of the limit shape converges to a determinantal point process with the discrete sine kernel. On the edges of the limit shape, we prove that the joint distribution of suitably scaled 1st, 2nd, and so on rows of a Plancherel typical diagram converges to the corresponding distribution for eigenvalues of random Hermitian matrices (given by the Airy kernel). This proves a conjecture due to Baik, Deift, and Johansson by methods different from the Riemann-Hilbert techniques used in their original papers math.CO/9810105 and math.CO/9901118 and from the combinatorial approach proposed by Okounkov in math.CO/9903176. Our approach is based on an exact determinantal formula for the correlation functions of the poissonized Plancherel measures involving a new kernel on the 1-dimensional lattice. This kernel is expressed in terms of Bessel functions and we obtain it as a degeneration of the hypergeometric kernel from the paper math.RT/9904010 by Borodin and Olshanski. Our asymptotic analysis relies on the classical asymptotic formulas for the Bessel functions and depoissonization techniques.
We prove a formula expressing a general n by n Toeplitz determinant as a Fredholm determinant of an operator 1-K acting on l_2({n,n+1,...}), where the kernel K admits an integral representation in terms of the symbol of the original Toeplitz matrix. The proof is based on the results of one of the authors, see math.RT/9907127, and a formula due to Gessel which expands any Toeplitz determinant into a series of Schur functions. We also consider 3 examples where the kernel involves the Gauss hypergeometric function and its degenerations.
We study a 3-parametric family of stochastic point processes on the one-dimensional lattice originated from a remarkable family of representations of the infinite symmetric group. We prove that the correlation functions of the processes are given by determinantal formulas with a certain kernel. The kernel can be expressed through the Gauss hypergeometric function; we call it the hypergeometric kernel. In a scaling limit our processes approximate the processes describing the decomposition of representations mentioned above into irreducibles. As we showed before, see math.RT/9810015, the correlation functions of these limit processes also have determinantal form with so-called Whittaker kernel. We show that the scaling limit of the hypergeometric kernel is the Whittaker kernel. The integral operator corresponding to the Whittaker kernel is an integrable operator as defined by Its, Izergin, Korepin, and Slavnov. We argue that the hypergeometric kernel can be considered as a kernel defining a `discrete integrable operator'. We also show that the hypergeometric kernel degenerates for certain values of parameters to the Christoffel-Darboux kernel for Meixner orthogonal polynomials. This fact is parallel to the degeneration of the Whittaker kernel to the Christoffel-Darboux kernel for Laguerre polynomials.
Let S be the group of finite permutations of the naturals 1,2,... The subject of the paper is harmonic analysis for the Gelfand pair (G,K), where G stands for the product of two copies of S while K is the diagonal subgroup in G. The spherical dual to (G,K) (that is, the set of irreducible spherical unitary representations) is an infinite-dimensional space. For such Gelfand pairs, the conventional scheme of harmonic analysis is not applicable and it has to be suitably modified. We construct a compactification of S called the space of virtual permutations. It is no longer a group but it is still a G-space. On this space, there exists a unique G-invariant probability measure which should be viewed as a true substitute of Haar measure. More generally, we define a 1-parameter family of probability measures on virtual permutations, which are quasi-invariant under the action of G. Using these measures we construct a family {T_z} of unitary representations of G depending on a complex parameter z. We prove that any T_z admits a unique decomposition into a multiplicity free integral of irreducible spherical representations of (G,K). Moreover, the spectral types of different representations (which are defined by measures on the spherical dual) are pairwise disjoint. Our main result concerns the case of integral values of parameter z: then we obtain an explicit decomposition of T_z into irreducibles. The case of nonintegral z is quite different. It was studied by Borodin and Olshanski, see e.g. the survey math.RT/0311369.
